Does anyone else feel like people are over exaggerating about the story? It's not amazing or anything but how is the narrative structure of this game any different than your average slop from Rockstar? It's perfectly serviceable fantasy schlock.


Also, I posted this thread earlier but jannies removed it for some reason. What is off topic about this?

Are you seriously comparing this incoherent mess to Rockstar - the absolute pinnacle of narrative storytelling in vidya?

Yeah how dare he compare them to the makers of liberal cowboy simulator where there wouldn't be a plot if the mc wasn't retarded
>>
>>735523985
No. If anything, it's way fucking worse than anyone can put into words. Utterly AI generated drivel
>>
>>735523985
I think giving cliff some inner dialog would remedy this. Like
>I don need this coin, best give it to that begga
>whas all that smoke? Bes go check

Also I find if you put a helmet on him and rp as a goblin slayer tier autist its pretty funny and works

why are companies still putting hundreds of millions into making generic serviceable fantasy schlock

nigga Quest A doesn't lead into Quest B for shit
granted this could easily be solved by adding one line of dialogue somewhere (maybe in a fucking JOURNAL) but as of right now it's just completely fucked
fun game though

The side quest chains are better. The main quest is disjointed nonsense. There's multiple big bads and literally zero character development.

The problem is that it's so janky it feels buggy, taking you out of it. If you don't notice this your brain might be very small and I envy you.

The bottom 30% random estimate of people can't differentiate between good and bad writing at all.
You might be part of that group.

kek get fucking scammed

I feel like if they used AI to generate the story it’d make more sense than whatever the fuck is going on here. They wrote that garbage themselves.

I'm enjoying Crimson Desert, but the absolute BEST thing about is how it's causing midwits to tell on themselves.
>IT'S TOO COMPLICATED
All mechanics are explained AND you have a glossary of every one.
>I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON
Every NPC tells you exactly what's going on and why you should care.
>HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT WAS THE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM
You weren't, you were supposed to stop looking at TikTok and figure something out on your own.

It's fucking hilarious.

Fantasy is the one of the few genres women are receptive to. It's partly due to Game of Thrones being so big, but also there's Harry Potter, and God knows how many Disney animations about princesses they watched as little girls. In CO prison they have zero connection to space faring sci-fi and they get filtered hard by it.
>>
>>735533531
I quite a few a lot of women on my youtube feed playing the game. Funnily enough I think they've progressed further than asmongold who recently ragequit at the monke boss. The only reason I know this is because the shazammies keep bringing up asmongold raging at the game as if that was a negative.

normies dont want to look around and try and figure out how to progress the story they want it to hold their hand and be one beat after another of effortless progress.

It just doesn't properly get going. I just got to chapter 5 and so far almost every chapter was 80% "Do random chore for random person" with maybe one or two quests actually progressing the overarching narrative.

Maybe it'll eventually pick up but so far most main quests should have been side quests... and most side quests were so rudimentary, they might as well not have been in the game at all.

Asmongold is a political talking head who doesn't like or care about video games. He only plays them to have background noise for when he's promoting the US Republican Party to teenagers.
>>
>>735537370
I'm pretty sure he makes a lot of dough telling one side of the aisle what they want to hear but immersing yourself in politics 24/7 must be a miserable existence.

This game is for homos that find kliff attractive. It has nothing else going for it at all. Nothing here was worth $80.

Is this the thread?
Anyway, I was wandering around past the hostile nation to the east and ended at Tinkerton, a land with flying drones and steam train.
I fucking love it here.

>>735536789
Man, being unable to win at the arm wrestling minigame is nuts. I read some dude saying it made his wrist hurt. Is this game being played by 60 year-olds?
>>
>>735523985
My only problem is that when you're finished with a quest task you immediately know what to do next without any instructions. No one told you, you didn't find it out by other means.
It's strange but I just think it's funny, it's nothing that ruins the experience for me

5 brownoids fell for the obvious bait. grim
