Why aren't /you/ playing?
>>736142960I'm too lazy to learn the controls.
>>736142960Downloading it now
>>736143098After buying it, right?
>>736142960/I/ am
I still haven't seen enough to convince myself it's actually a game and not just a tech demo
>>736142960COD and 2K games also sell a lot of copies It means nothing
>>736142960I've played 50 hours
>>736142960Im tired of directionless open world slop.
i'll wait a month when they stop dropping patches every other day, and when i'm done with Pragmata
>>736142960No hot women to Romance? PASS
>>736143451>games with good gameplay sellWho could have seen it coming?
Because I have basic taste and standards. Why should I bother playing korean ubislop?
>>736144656Exploration is fun.Combat can be fun but that's up to you.
>>736143247They made their money already
Because it's dogshit, I should have bought Nioh or one of the GOTY 25 contenders instead
>>736144819>explorationUbislop doesn't have "exploration". We already went over this with nu-zelda.
>>736142960I will buy it on my base ps5 soon. Wish me luck bros.I hated skyrim
Because i don't find it very appealing DD2 despite all it's flaws had coherence and a style to it This looks like UE5 game with all the shit they could cram in and every clip either some quirk chungus "you can pet the heckin cat"or Killing same enemies with 300 particle effects
Ill buy it when its on sale for 5 bucks
>>736146767Don't bother it runs and looks like shit on ps5 unless you're happy to play at 30 fps
>>736142960I'll play it when it's free. Don't care about Black Desert Offline otherwise
>>736147026I got like 10 thousand games I can wait
>>736146778Are you mad that someone here actually plays games before trashing them? CD is one of the worst games I've ever played.
>>736147104Why does that matter?
I dont play open world garbage. There's never ever been a good open world game.
>>736142960It's slop.
Astroturfed slop for the cattle.
I hate open world games.
>>736142960Saw some webm of a character fucking throwing a knife and killing some idiot who wasn't even looking at him just for pretending to be a big shot hero or some shitNot interested if that's the tone they're going for.
>>736142960I'm playing ghost squad on dolphin
>>736142960there is no half naked woman in this game
>>736149228Download paz tools and make her naked
Not engaging in korean propaganda
>>736142960open world slop is for casuals, hence the 4mil copies sold
>>736142960>Written by ChatGPT.Hmm... no.
>>736142960I only played the first couple assassins creed games and the pirate ones. Did ubisoft finally cook with this one chat?
What's the appeal?Every single clip is either Generic guy walking in generic World Or doing anime combo on basic enemies Which is cool but i already played bloody palace for 70 hours so I am good
>>736152268Sorry I am not a mmo gook
>>736142960>Why aren't /you/ playing?The first time I played the game I got to a little castle town and there was a little dog next to a guard, so I pet the dog, and then I saved the game to have dinner. When I came back and loaded my savegame every single NPC in the little castle town was completely different, randomly generated, disposable. The dog was now two different colored dogs, the guard was different, the big goblin/ogre man from before was now a big goblin/ogre woman. It was at that moment that I saw through the matrix. This ain't it.
>>736152474And you are retarded shill?
>>736152570>be me>go to city for mcdonalds>see a bunch of people in the city>enter mcdonalds>when I'm done eating, I leave>now I see different people in the city than before I entered mcdonaldsWhat a trash city
>>736142960MHwild sold 8 millions in 3 days, why aren't /you/ playing?
>>736147139It has 60fps and 40fps mode on ps5 you lying dumbfuck
>>736142960I played black desert and that convinced me that they couldn't have possibly made a good game.
>>736142960It looks lame and gay, and whether genuine or payed the shills on here make me think it's worse than it looks
>>736142960Got bored after few hours, game is shit. Good thing i bought it for 1 buck
>>736142960I don't play gookslop
>>736155652>it is for white boysThis is what I mean by the shilling turning me off. You say this and all I can imagine is some Indian typing it out in his third world shill farm.
>>736155652A 7/10 is kikes seething?Seems like a fair score
>>736142960The only game released this year worth playing is The Legend of KhiimoriMongolia is epic
>>736142960Because I have NOTHING that can run this.
>>736156150Nope Cairn
Honestly I'm glad full price games can still be successful in the current uncertain economical and political climate because I'm a WaitKEK so that means I don't have to feel guilty buying them years later for 20 buckaroos with all the patches.
>>736142960Dragon's Slopma 2 blastbros....
>>736142960But I am
>>736143368There's barely any 'tech' in it that would make you think it's a tech demo. Maybe the real time water physics. But then there's not enough water to make it a water tech demo.
>>736142960It looks too boring to pirate
>>736156549>sequelslopper goes through mental gymnastics to make himself think he is superiorlollmao even
>>736142960I don't play Chinese or Korean games.
>>736142960>Why aren't /you/ playing?Worst controls and menu navigation in video game history. As good as the rest of the game looks I can't enjoy it when the interface is so retarded.
>>736142960Cuz I'm at work - its early afternoon in white countries.
>>736156549Not gonna happen Game broke even which is not bad but their investors are probably not happy with that
>>736144851>>736146730Niggers
>>736142960Why aren't /you/ playing?
>>736142960IGN gave it a 6/10, why would I buy trash? I bought Marathon and had a blast.
>>736155130I am
>>736156746Ok, Rajesh
>>736142960Because it is a dull uninspired poorly designed slop fest designed for the ADHD generation who mistake "content" and busy work for gameplay. The fact this game is so popular is proof to me that each generation post WW2 has become progressively more retarded.
CD is a game for white people, just like Starfield
>>736157230Why aren't /you/ playing?
>>736142960because it's too expensive and I don't trust HiV to not destroy my computer
>>736157329>>736155412
>>736156830>broke evenIt had 130mil or so prod cost. Sold 4 mil. At 70 per unit. Even after tax/Gaben, thats a few dozen mil profit IF they stopped selling.
>>736156867Rollslop.
>>7361429604 million in 3 weeks if awful for a game that wa supposed to be the next Zelda/Rockstar game. RE9 did 5 million in a week. It's over for the gooks and the shill.
>>736157463CD is pretty much VFX rollslop
>>736143368Open your eyes then.
>>736157417Issue is them investing 5-6 year making another game for mixed reception and moderate profits when their mmo makes just as much every single year
>>736155990Only third worlders do this whole "everyone I don't like is a shill" shit.
>>736157417>Sold 8 mil in 3 days. At 70 per unitTell that to MH Wild, Capcom think Wild is a flop
>>736156867Unfair comparison. ER is in a league of its own.
>>736157518>do a dodge roll>smoke effect, green energy effect, wind fart effect some shitThis look terrible
>>736142960I already have enough games to play right now to add another hiking simulator single player mmorpg in. Maybe I'll try it in a few months
>>736155207The 60 fps mode is a blurry mess and drops to 30 fps. The 40 fps mode never hits 40 fps. https://youtu.be/IFSwmZz1ZUA

>>736157373sure anon just let me feed my credit card credentials to this extremely shady russian website surely nothing bad can happen! it's only $1, after all! it's not like they're going to use that information to buy a bunch of copies to sell them for cents to retards who will then get shafted by chargebacks
Because I have no interest in killing generic bandits for 100 hours or solving lame BOTW puzzles. Sloppiest game ever shilled on /v
>>736142960I have a limited amount of free time and I'm not convinced a single player MMO is a good use for it.
>>736142960I’m wait for it to go on sale in like 6 months, I already have a huge backlog of games
>>736142960I am. Amazing game. Helps ease the sting of the money I wasted on Marathon as well.
>>736142960I don't play brand new games. I still have to finish Witcher, Tainted Grail, and Elden Ring before it makes sense to pick this up.
>>736158053Not to mention the widely accepted opinion that 10-20 hours is how much time you have to sacrifice before the game "gets good".
>>736157962>Don't bother it runs and looks like shit on ps5 unless you're happy to play at 30 fps>none of the modes maintain their target framerate with the most stable being the 30 fps quality mode>all except the 30 fps quality mode look like shit Nah
>>736157984>credit cardYou don't know how to use Paypal? or Crypto, USDT?
>>736158209>that 10-20 hours is how much time you have to sacrifice before the game "gets good".Tell that to FFXIV players...
>>736157159I'm white, SEAmonkey.
>>736158053It's actually totally fine to pick up and play for 45 minutes once you've progressed to act 2 which only takes 90 min-2hours, a lot of quests aren't very long, so you can easily do a couple here and thereIts how i've been playing the game, only put in about 12 hours since launch and i am still having fun with it
>>736158340I'll be honest with you, I haven't played a FF game since ff12 when I got bored halfway through that and never finished it.
>>736149228AGP bois dont even like video games confirmedmakes since why major outlets hating on the game
>>736157984>credit card credentialsNo one cares about your shitty credentials, Jimmy boy, and I’m pretty sure only stupid americunts use credit card credentials to buy video games online LMAO
>>73614296070 shekels for an allegedly buggy game with poor control. I also haven't really seen anything amazing in gameplay clips.Maybe if it's on sale and they've fixed their shit.
>>736142960I've honestly no idea what kind of game it even is
>>736158453>bought an steam offline account with 150+ denuvo games for 3 dollaru>it's all garbageheh, only shit developers use Denuvo to hide their shitty games
>>736158397Sure you are, shitskin
>>736158209After 20 hours the only thing you do is ragdolling bandits like modded Skyrim or some shit ass mmo management mini game
>>736158678It made sense for AA games because every sale is more significant But what's up with AAA being so touchy about piracy
>>736158280>b-but it went down a few frames in a second from 60 to 55, thats unplayable!!!!!stop coping after being exposed for a liar
>>736158645>I've honestly no idea what kind of game it even isPolished Skyrim with mods
It always feels wierd to see posts calling the game you have been no lifing for 2 weeks garbage. I just assume the posts are made up since I'm having fun. I can't even imagine what it would look like to not enjoy myself playing it.
I could play this for free right now via family sharing on steam but I'm simply not into slop, even if it's free.
>>736159207
>>736159207Different people Different taste and priorities But I am glad you are having a blast
>>736158732Sure am, lesser asian.
>>736142960I bought Death Stranding 2, I want to finish that first
>>736159207I gave the game a genuine try, but after trying to bind block on to right click, breaking multiple other skills and realizing how convoluted and nonsensical the ui, interaction and other controls are I gave up. The game seems to be fun to experience but frustrating to play. A solid 7/10 game.
I'm too busy playing project zomboid
im noticing that outlets always give a negative spin on their articles about crimson desert. that’s fine, but why don’t they do the same for marathon?https://x.com/pcgamer/status/2039319457752088725is the latest one
>>736159565Didn't they sell 1 million in 48 hours? How is that bad lmao
>>736159565You get more clicks by going against the windsWhy would you read any article praising CD if you already like it
>>736159565I’m noticing too. I guess they didn’t pay some bribe or something?https://x.com/pushsquare/status/2039296738893115632
>>73615828030 FPS looks perfect if you play on a big cool TV and not a fucking monitor
>>736156336Is this real???
>>736159515>busy>project zomboidyou mean reading skill books while sitting in your base?
>>73615966399.9% of people aren't playing the game so again the question is why are they always giving backhanded compliments to asian devs and publicly fellating western devs? It's more than access at this point. And I know it's lgbt neutral but that's not enough for this level of hate. Crimson Desert did nothing wrong.
>>736159565dug a bit more, this made me laugh. ign got community noted for this kekhttps://x.com/ign/status/2037266114657276222>>736159669i guess? so they operate like some sort of review mafia? but then again people say that companies hold the power like how bungie got them to agree to hold their reviews so then how does that work? >>736159663that’s fair i guess
>>736159632Marathon probably cost 2x as much as Crimson Desert did to make, so a quarter of the sales is not a good comparison.
>>736159843>blacksIn their own land elsewhere>brownsIn their own land elsewhere>transfolxWithout the internet, they have no way of gathering into a single location and indulging in their fetishes to the point of self mutilation.
My prediction is very simple. What happened to MH: World when it hit deep sales and got popular a few years back will happen to this game too. There's just too much content to turn down for $20. People were willing to try MH knowing they had to put up with janky controls.
>>736159843where they belong
>>736159823>>736159565IGN has solely negative headlines or just 2 line factual statements about the game. They are getting laughed at in every one of these and ratio’d, why are they being so obvious about this one? Weird.https://x.com/ign/status/2038697038964052220https://x.com/ign/status/2036095903958790540https://x.com/ign/status/2035091785525928121https://x.com/ign/status/2036469878295539775Also in their interview with the VA they lead him by the nose to answer the way he did. Reviewer gave 6/10 and was arguing with people angry at him and insinuated that Crimson Desert was McDonalds tier slop and that they should 1v1 them in Marathon LMAO.
>>736159843They aren't allowed to exist :)
>>736142960Story and character seem wholly nonexistant, and from the clips I've seen the voice acting is godawful as well.I love a good fantasy action-adventure/aRPG, but I need it to have at least SOME sauce. This game is dry as fuck, as I would expect from most Korean productions.
>>736160149>Reviewer gave 6/10 and was arguing with people angry at him and insinuated that Crimson Desert was McDonalds tier slop and that they should 1v1 them in Marathon LMAOthat’s fucking hilarious, source? honestly based. why are people harassing the reviewer anyway if it’s fun it’s fun you don’t need igns validation
>>736160117Before playing Crimson Desert I thought MHWorld had a bad menu ui. What Crimson Desert does to the idea of good controls is like taking Ticktacktoe and turning it into a rubik's cube with holographic colors that change depending on the angle you look at them.
>>736160321hahaha nah man it's not even half as bad as where winds meet. play more shitty games.
>>736159565gamespot https://x.com/gamespot/status/2038735412911571125idk seems like a concerted effort to only have negative headlines even for the good stuff like replacing AI slop lol i didn’t look more because i don’t play or care for this game, but did they do the same thing for stellar blade/lies of P/wukong? im guessing yes?
If you're short on inventory space, there's a bag that gives you 10 slots every 7 in-game days..
>>736160407yeah I wish you could enter every house with no loading screen and they all had unique hand placed loot. Oh well, I guess I can keep dreaming :)
>>736160395Yeah they did. There's an obvious anti-shill campaign for every game that doesn't have DEI shit.
>>736160353Where Winds Meet is like menu-ception, but at least just pushing buttons works. Crimson Desert seems to like making up new rules on how to even enter/leave certain UI's like the house decoration one, they force controller controls onto the equipment menu so you can't click/drag to equip items, THEY HAD TO PATCH IN I/J/M/L hotkeys for inventory, journal, map and skills because they didn't bother adding them in at launch, I can go on and on with how retarded the devs for make the UI and controls for this game are.
>>736160395The thing about it is, that it's a hivemind not a conspiracy. They see their fellows pulling in one direction and they join in. Shrimple as.
>>736160407lol botw and elden ring have even less shit to get from exploring but no one has a problem with them
>>736142960Big success for all the skyrim fans!
>>736160590140 hours on controller and my issues are the inconsistent double jump and occasional jank with climbing. Menus I don't have an issue they are pretty MMO standard tier menus? Maybe i've played too many gacha at this point lel.
>>736160591but they are getting clowned on in every tweet, do they like desire this shit? baiting engagement? i saw someone link a polygon article where the author claimed that critics love marathon so it’s a shoe in for GOTY and multiplayer GOTY. what world do these people live in?
>>736160606Those games actually play well, fun exploration and nice graphics is all this game has going for it.
>>736142960>Why aren't /you/ playing?i'm no fomo npc
>>736160606Those games have more going for them than a big world with stuff in it. Games are greater than the sum of their parts.
>>736160606if the gameplay is legendary the world only needs to be average, and vice versa.
>>736160208>story>character >voice acting You don't even like games. You're a moviefag. Fuck off
>>736160689yes, they do think engagement equals success. They are living in their insulated communities that they created in college.
>>736160712>fomoI think you mean FotM.
Really loving how Axe feels. Oongka is so much fun in combat. But... His movement skills such so much.>Jetpack is decent but holy fuck it looks awful sitting on your back all the time though you can just action wheel it on an offNot a huge issue. But the truly awful shit is....>no lunge stab flying on Oongka>now I actually need to climb all those stupid fucking mountains and shitaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
only 9 hours to get all the koroks bros I feel scammed
>>736142960Because nothing about this game sparks any interest for meJust looks like a shitty, soulless game to be honest.
>>736160407Found the deflection shill
>>736142960Does this game have platforming?
>>736160782>How much incest does CD have???Well... There's lots of Dad killing
>>736160702>>736160716What does BoTW have that this doesn’t?>inb4 SOVL I fail to see how this isn’t just a BOTW for adults that plays better. >>736160782True, if the Shai were barefoot and this had a sex minigame and romance I think I would’ve rated it a 7 rather than a 6.
>>736160776I just like my videogames to be well-rounded experiences. If CD does it for you then by all means enjoy, but for me it is sorely lacking in too many aspects.
>>736159715The bird? Yes. It's a baby Pukeko.Despicable creatures.
>>736160208>Story and character seem wholly nonexistant, and from the clips I've seen the voice acting is godawful as well.snoys calling themselves gamers need to kill themselves. go watch movies fucking troon
>>736160896nah you just want to soiface at cutscenes
>>736160887>What does BoTW have that this doesn’t?Those games are smaller in scope but everything they do that Crimson Desert also does, they do better. Crimson Desert isn't a bad game at all, I'd rate it 7 or 8 out of 10, but it's a janky copy/paste of superior titles being held up by a vast world to explore and better graphics.
>>736160887>BoTWBrand identity, better art direction. You can argue that this is the 'Zelda/Nintendo bonus', but it still holds merit.You can slap Kliff onto the boxart of some random Diablo clone or MMO and he'd fit right in. BotW is distinct.I fucking hate BotW, btw.
>>736160887Zelda fags are absolutely retarded niggers by this point lol they’ve been abused for so long they can’t see reality for what it is, hysterical to witness
Can someone explain to me why this game became a giant culture war? It looks totally inoffensive
>>736161060>>73616110141%
>>736160887>What does BoTW have that this doesn’t?coherenceArt direction better activates soulful enemies
>>736160896It’s sorely lacking in diversity for you, just say that Jameel
>>736144963This. I also wish I got Nioh 3. Or any game with good combat for that matter.
>>736161198>I can't think of anything to prove them wrong>I'll just call them trannies and move on
>>736160887Charming art direction, CD world look like generic korea mmo #2141564 and CD NPCs and playable characters are just generic MMO quest giver
>>736160983>>736161059Why are you getting so upset over someone not enjoying something?
>>736161149It's not really part of the culture war but some people are trying their best to make it it's a mediocre open world game
>>736160776Then don't make a story based rpg you fucking retardif you can't write dialogues then don't have this many dialogues in your game
>>736161149It's not. The retarded shills are desperately trying to to trick /vpol/ into buying it. It's a garbage game and a flop.
>>736161059>>736161212>shit i just want this game has better story than generic MMO chosen one #12413414 kill 10 wolfs>REEEEEEEEEEEEE YOU'RE WOKE
>>736161237Filtered lol
>>736161273>xhe said in between dilation sessionsVery typical
>>736161149One side despises it because of it's terrible controls and MMO-esque gameplay, quests and plot.The other side loves it because it's fun to explore the world, find the secrets, kill bad guys and find cool things.It's a solidly okay game that is great in some ways, horrible in others and averages to about a 7.5/10. The white knights will shill the game as a 9/10 at minimum and the haters will say it's a 6/10 at best slopfest. It's a very polarizing game because you either tolerate it's flaws and love what else it has or you hate that you wasted $70 on a game that you feel has broken controls.
>>736160776>>736161059>>736161212>soiface at cutscenesyou know that the CD cutscenes are unskippable, right? For a game with hurrdurr story not important it sure love to shove up it shitty story and soiface in my face
>>736156508What's your gpu and settings for the game to look that good? My 3090 is struggling to hit 60 at that resolution with rtx on
>>736149425this is a pc game
>>736142960>Why aren't /you/ playing?I don't have the hardware but as a koreaboo im definitely very satisfied with how this is turning out. we are living in the age where the once "too good to be true" games that looked like bullshots are actually not only playable but absolute phenomenons changing the industry.
>>736161407I’m flopping so hard rn xhister, just a few more shitpost xhister I’m so close to bussin’, don’t stop now….
>>736161549Your life isnt unskippable though lol
>>736161543>6/10Kek, It’s a 3/10. Death Stranding 2 came out the same day and mogs the fuck out of this AI slop. This garbage is literally what you’d get when you ask AI to generate a game that it thinks would be popular. Soulless.
>>736161101I like that Kliff could be a stand in for the diablo barbarian howeverly
>>736161543I will say that I've beaten the game and I love it. But I wouldn't recommend it to anyone without asking some questions first.
>>736161904This.
>>736161835Lies of P and SB aren't too good to be true, and Wukong is just generic UE5
>>736161835>we are living in the age where the once "too good to be true">UE5 soulsclone parryslop which does nothing new>"too good to be true"kek
>>736149425No wonder their shills are still here 24/7. Makes me wish North Korea would kill them all desu
>>736161835Get your eyes fucking checked
>>736155412What website?
>>736160208Wrong, the characters are great, the Greymanes are soulful as fuck
Korea has never made a good game, and that certainly didn't change with this soulless pile of dogshit.
>>736162364How so? Show some examples of this soulful as fuck then?
>>736162495nta but the game does have great characters which is not that same as a great story.See FFX for a similar comparison.
>>736162364Sad bait
>>73616174040901440p all settings maxed, dlss (4.0) quality, frame gen, ray reconstruction on (this is probably a big one but huge performance hit)i pull 80-90+ fps with dlss quality, 130-150+ with frame gen onturning off ray reconstruction is a huge performance boost but looks kinda shit tbhfamalso every time i start the game i change from dlss quality to dlaa and save, then change back to dlss quality and it looks a little betteractual performance with dlaa (no upscaling), no frame gen, and RR on is like 40-50 fps
>>736162364I highly doubt that, but I'm open to the possibility. Please show me these 'great' characters.
>>736162604Basch from FF12 of course.
>>736162553No it doesn't. They are completely forgettable and interchangeable. None of them stand out in any way. To have good characters, you need good writing. This game simply doesn't have that. It doesn't have good anything for that matter.
>>736162705You didn't play it lmao. We love Yann here.
>>736162704Basch decided to move to a little countryside and make arms instead of taking them up... good for him.
>>736162553>nta but the game does have great characters which is not that same as a great story.I asked you to show some examples of the Greymanes being soulful, not to talk about FFX. Are you okay?
I really thought these hidden quest indicators from WoW were so cool but I guess nobody else thinks it's a funny little easter egg..
>>736160208>voice acting is awfuldumb cuntknocker
>>736162918stuff it up your ass troll. I'm not spoonfeeding you anything but my BWC
>>736142960I watched DSP play this for a few hours and it looked terrible
>>736162967Take that opinion and also realize that actually playing game feels worse than watching someone else play it.
>>736162964>Can you show me some examples of the Greymanes being soulful>REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE YOU A TROLLhuh?
>playing modern games on release yearEvery single big modern game is released unfinished.Learned it the hard way from Trannypunk.I'll wait at least a year to play.
>>736163024https://youtu.be/Tth9nsCoyuI?t=3168I really don't get the hype around it. It looks terrible
>>736162704>>736162763Nice fanfic but it's just generic blacksmith NPC, it doesn't even look like Basch at all.
>>736163113why are you watching DSP for gaming opinions?
>>736162495>>736162604Their interactions with each other are fun, they're exactly what you'd imagine a band of drunk mercenaries with a heart of gold to be, in that they're a mess, sometimes cunts but they're pretty badass and care for one anotherThis piece of shit right here is an example>Camp is low on funds>He tells you about a merchant that's making a lot of money>You both go check on the merchant>He's trying to move spices from one town to the other but his cart broke >You take advantage and load your own cart with spices and take the money>Turns out this guy actually sabotaged the merchants cart himself so you could make the drop >Get the money>He spends half of it on Ale
>>736162957Its really not that hard or expensive to get some decent voice talent. Why even have VA if its gonna sound like awkward amateurs reading a ChatGPT-tier script?
>>736163113It makes sense when you understand that there is no hype, it's just marketers and a ton of bots they've set up to spam it here and all over social media 24/7.
>>736162364>>736162553>>736162704>>736162964>ask about CD story and character>it's good>how so>hurrdurrdurrdurrheh
>>736163210He's right
>>736163230>He tells you about a merchant that's making a lot of moneySo he is a generic quest giver>He spends half of it on AleWhat is soulful about this? this is like every JRPG joke quest
>>736163230It's pretty sad how hard you had to try to think of a single instance to describe as entertaining or memorable about this game's characters. And the only reason you picked him is because all of his dialogue is constant swearing which makes him stand out by default.
>>736163230>He spends half of it on Ale>OMG HE LOVE ALCOHOL SO SOULFUL AIYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWere you often beaten by your drunk dad as a child?
>>736142960I don't have time to play it so i'm considering dropping it altogether. I've managed 14 hours in it since launch.
>>736163371Yes anon, stories in fantasy games usually come in the shape of quests>soulful about thisThe fact that in the story you're supposed to be these super good guys saving every town around but in reality you got guys like this, who are a drunken cheating mess
>>736142960>No character creation, I'm forced to play as Korean Geralt and maybe switch to two unfinished stooges once in a while>Every character is generic ungabunga fighters, no real character building>World is a wholly uninteresting hodgepodge of second hand fantasy tropes without any sort of stand out aesthetic>Can't actually explore and do what you want as progression is heavily gated behind a linear main quest, so the massive and empty open world is completely pointless>Zero weapon variety, you're forced to have a sword and shield on at all times>Nonsense MMO padding everywhere>Tons of half baked features like base building that add nothing to the game>120GBIf I wanted a good fantasy adventure I can play (OOOOOOOOOOOOOH) Elden Ring.If I wanted a power fantasy ARPG sandbox I can play Todd's trash and mod it to suck a bit less.If I wanted classic D&D fantasy with zero enemy variety and flashy combat with tons of pointless features there's Dragon's Ligma.If I wanted to build shit in a 3D fantasy world and engage with mediocre combat every once in a while there's Enshrouded.There's no reason whatsoever to play this game other than to say you've played it for e-cred, it does a lot of things but none of those things is done well.
>>736161060>>736161101>>736161209>>736161258It is outlandishly impressive how delusional tendies are.
>>736142960I have. But 40 hours in and it's boring garbage with the dullest and lamest combat system I've ever encountered outside an MMO. I have next to no interest in playing more of it at this point, there's no hook, which is a shame since I paid full price and I've barely seen much of the map. What a waste.
>>736164021Excellent post. Sums it up perfectly.
>>736142960I'm playing some other games how are you people so free to play new games I'm still struggling to finish last year's shit
>>736163512>>736163538It's pretty sad you can't see how a band of medieval mercenaries acting unapologetically as they do could be something fun
>>736161835>Lies of P>Stellar BladeGreat games, some of the best action games of the decade>WukongHow the fuck is this garbage rated so highly? Outside of bosses and presentation the game has awful in every single other way.
>>736164021thanks for declaring that you played the game for less than 2 hours
>>736142960I'm playing Skyrim then i'm going to play Stalker 2 after i'm finished with Skyrim.CD isn't a proper RPG even less than a casual one like TES.
>>736162957>cuntknockerIs that an Irish insult?
>>736163371Being this reductive is just hurting your own position cause someone who genuinely thinks they're right doesn't need to be dishonest. You have conceded the argument.
>>736142960>Why aren't /you/ playing?no pride event
>>736164021Sounds about right but i like Todd's games and Potential Man games.
>>736164374Its nothing to write home about, anon. Its fine, but that's it. Not really remarkable.Even something like DD1, an unfinished hodge-podge of ideas from a director with a profoundly incomplete grasp of the genre he was tackling, has better characters and more memorable moments.
This game being successful despite joruno and Sony smear campaign seems to really upset the trannies
>>736164768What did Snoy do? It's the second best selling game in the PS Store.
>>736160208>complaining about characters and story while using picture of DD, a game with literally 0 story and charactersIs this what they call trolling?
>>736164736>It's not as good as one of the craziest most memorable games by fucking ItsunoYeah anon, most games aren't that
>>736164857Pearl Abyss refused to make the game a PS5 timed exclusive so Sony started a campaign against them by propping up Marathon instead and paying of journos to shit on CD
>>736164634either that or scottish, yann says that a lot>vanta black is not the correct argentinian skin tonefucking bullshit
>>736164981Sony loves getting exclusive rights and then doing nothing with them.
>>736164981It didn't work as usual. People are starved by Bethesda so every other open world fantasy game will be a hit but without the long term investment. Marathon was going to be a failure regardless.
This game is basically fantasy RDR2 with worse story and more jank but better gameplay, exploration and world. If you're someone who only plays games for story you'll most likely hate it
>>736164968Having a prominent director is irrelevant, but you touched on the core of the issue here. Memorability. The most memorable thing about CD is that its got a lot of stuff in it. There's nothing else.
>>736142960I’m white.
>>736165392My point is that most games will not have anything memorable if you compare them with stuff made by one of the industry greats who is known for his wacky characters
because themshits is $70
>>736164478Not my fault the game has nothing to offer to warrant more than two hours at best, it's genuinely impressive that they crammed so much stuff in a single game on top of making it run pretty decently even on lower end hardware, that's a major technical achievement and worthy of praise, but the game itself is really just a melting pot of features from popular games put together haphazardly without a singular focus or even some degree of polish.Again, why would I bother playing a game like this if I can't either customize my character or have at least some semblance of deeper systems to warrant having fixed characters?Skyrim lets you do whatever the fuck you want, TW3 has actually curated narrative for both its characters and the game world on top of being much more open-ended and with way less padding, there's only so much fun you can get out of pulling running DDTs on helpless peasants before it gets old and it gets old rather quick, never mind the constant QTEs.Combat wise Elden Ring or Dragon's Dogma 1/2 run laps around this game in both variety and quality and you know it's bad when Dragon's Dogma 2, a notoriously rushed and unfinished game that was also hyped to hell and back still offers a better experience.If you want a physically interactive world where you can explore and do shit like digging and building there's currently nothing on the level of the Voxel based interaction and building of Enshrouded, and for some reason that game also manages to have actual character building for combat and an equally huge and much more visually varied world that is also FULLY interactive as every voxel can be manipulated, oh and you can swim too in that game.Genuinely what is the appeal of Crimson Desert to anyone who actually plays videogames?Again, it is noteworthy that it tries to do a lot of things but it's all surface level stuff, the game feels like a huge proof of concept demo more than anything.
>>736142960>The mountain you can't climb
>>736165392It's because it doesn't have a single mechanic it does as good as anything it copied them from. They're serviceable at best and janky at worst. The devs were so focused on adding in so many different things that there are literally over 5 dozen unique inputs across combat and interactions. They over engineered this game beyond all reason and it suffers for it a LOT.
>>736165653You are wrong, period. Itsuno is irrelevant to this discussion, the fact that DD as an IP is at its strongest whenever he's not at the helm is proof of that.There are random indie games with more identity and memorability than CD, but we don't even need to go that far. Look at Lies of P or even Stellar Blade. Both come from pretty irrelevant studios and both managed to deliver distinct, memorable experiences that resonated with people for more than just their gameplay.
>>736165780Ask ChatGPT to keep it under 200 characters next time cause I'm not reading all that.
>>736165984Don't worry, I had very little hope for you to have the mental faculties to give me a proper response.
>>736166104Why respond to a post you had AI come up with?
>>736142960>Why aren't /you/ playing?Non existent story, open world meme, AI slop, not an RPG.
>>736142960Does this game have a playable female MC? I keep seeing webms of players doing izuna drops with a sexy girl but for some fucking reason there's no info on this.
>>736165965>that resonated with people for more than just their gameplay.No they didn't, at least not fucking Lies of P that is literally a nothing of a story or characters besides maybe the dlc final boss, what makes that game good is purely it's gameplay
>>736142960just boughted and playing now :)
>>736166193None of that was written with AI, which is why your zoomer brain can't process it, there's actual arguments and information in there which you can't refute, let alone parse.I'm sure you can ask Grok to do it for you though.
>>736166213It's a playable side character who can't be used in main story missions, is randomly dropped on you for a chapter, then fucks off for like 4 chapters after that.
>>736160884Sad his previous dialogue was rewritten, it was full of revenge soul
>>736166371Damn so we can't play her even after the story? I would have been more interested if I didn't have to play a non customizable guy all the time.
>mods deleting fun threads>leave this shilling spam up
>>736162738>You didn't play it lmao. We love Yann here.Playable Yann so he can finally shut up when?
>>736166491Your stealth pedo thread isn't fun to anyone without mental issues. (Most people)
>>736166429You can, it's just that for story reasons you are locked out of playing with her for a while
>>736164021>Zero weapon variety, you're forced to have a sword and shield on at all timesThis is a lie, btw. It's true that the shield is always on your back and you can't hide it, but you can dual wield, use a spear, or a 2 handed sword.
>>736166607nice projection, jeet
>>736166681>You can,Buying it now. Shai cunny here I come.
>>736166267capi know every poster just by their color configurationyou have at least 50 hours in this game
I don't know shit about Black Desert but the stupidly retarded combat is appealing to me. Give it to me straight, is this really a "gets good after 10 hours" game or will I be free to dick around the open world at my own pace from the start?
>>736166695Oh nice, so you can have a sword and shield, two swords and shield, a big sword and shield or a spear and shield, truly incredible.
>>736166886>gets BTFO>instantly moves the goalpost despite it not even making any senseYou lost
Damn we are having this super elaborate discussion about 7/10 game because it's made by Koreans
>>736166829its kinda locked to the main story you can explore but u wont find shit 9.5/10 timesalso if you go to far before progressing main its gonna endlessly spawn enemies
>>736166886Yes. You wanted more than just sword and shield so why are you bitching?
When was the last time /v/ seethed so uncontrollably hard about a videogame?
>>736166886>and shieldlmao what a fucking retard. It's honestly impressive that you have this much confidence in your argument being this objectively wrong.
>>736167035Expedition 33 and before that BG3 and before that Elden Ring.
>>736166886I've always wanted to pick apart the brain of someone who cannot, under any circumstances, admit they were wrong about something. Did you read that reply and break into a sweat, did you get mad and start hyper ventilating? What compels you to double down like this.
>>736167195So every year
>>736166886You forgot unarmed/wrestling combat
>>736167035>Thread poses an open question for those who are NOT playing the game>Said people enter thread to discuss why they are NOT playing the game>hurr ur so mad
>>736142960Waiting for a non hyper visor crack
>>736167415>waiting for broken shit from a tranny that hates trannies and does it for fame and donations instead of genuine preservation
>>736167415If you want a Denuvo token just say so nigga
>>736167378>anon makes a general statement about the board and not this thread specifically>anon feels personally attacked enough to write up this triggered ass replyProving his point.
>>736166886Retarded nigger clown lmao
>>736142960I am. Ive played at least 4 days full time and Im still in hernand. Absolute beast of a game.
>>736167378why do the anti schizos expect me to run defense for a vidya gayme? If you don't like it you're a dumb bitch to me it's really that simple. This is why I don't recommend people anything.
>>736166886Kek, you made the shills have a meltdown over this for some reason
>>736167982They sit around for like 18 hours a day scanning for threads about this game, then ask bait questions to argue as a hobby for something, i don't really get itif nobody gives them (you)s they'll just make a post like>(quoting nobody) wait so you're saying this game is trash? it's peepoopoo garbage?then reply to themselves>yeah it's gooks lmaooo
>>736142960Because there is literally nothing about it that seems fun to me.Over the top flashy animations, but attached to an extremely simple comat, with passive enemies waiting in a cirlcle to slowly attack you one at a time.Ugly modern hud.Pointless story.Bland characters.Boring setting.Standard souless ubislop open world activities.Denuvo/hypervisorGood for them for that many sales. But I cannot understand how the masses enjoy this slop.
>>736142960It's a shit game for hylics.
>>736168136>passive enemies waiting in a cirlcle to slowly attack you one at a time.Why lie? Enemies constantly swarm you and attack at the same time
>>736166829It's a "gets good never" kind of game. The combat is dogshit, there's nothing to find or do, and exploration is constantly blocked by story progression. Don't fall for the scam.
>>736168075>I was just pretending to be retarded!
>>736166886>>736168075>say something stupid and objectively wrong>get made fun of by a bunch of people>too embarrassed to directly reply to them>samefag own post telling yourself how mad everyone else isuh huh.
>>736168338Not lying. That was just the assumption I made from watching clips from it. I obviously have not played it. Because why would I, when nothing about it seems interesting to me.
>>736168427Seethe harder retard shill
>>736168452It's an accurate assessment. The combat is similar to (but significantly worse than) Assassin's Creed and Batman.
>>736168616>asscreed and bamham nigger wouldn't be a CD thread without you, bro
>>736168452>I obviously have not played it.Kek. Typical/v/ermin
>>736168075Let them have fun I guess, they certainly aren't having fun with the game given they're here splitting hairs over having a spear to sometime break the monotony of sword(s) and shield.
Why does this game upset trannies, faggots, niggers and jews so much? Are you not having a blast with Marathon?
>>736168914>still replying to yourself Genuinely pathetic.
>>736168914Switching weapons doesn't even change the fact that the combat always feels the same. Exactly like >>736168616 said.
>>736168113My favorite part is the made up arguments that obviously come from someone who only has second hand experience.
>>736165780do not conuse modded syrim with vanilla, witcher 3 has awful story compared to 2 and even 1, dragon's dogma and elden ring may have an actual magic system, but are martially inept compared to the combos you can pull off in crimson desert, I have no clue what enshrouded is, so I'll trust you on this(looks ugly, though)>what is the appeal of Crimson Desert to anyone who actually plays videogames?playing a fucking videogame, stop spouting the "wide as an ocean, deep as puddle" nonsense if you're not even dipping your toes in it
>>736169045Sure sure, whatever you say anon, it's all just one guy.
>>736142960would like to try this game if it wasn't $70. seems too much for it.
>>736142960I pirated it, but i'll buy the GotY edition on sale because I am enjoying it much more than I thought I would
>>736165780All of this to say that the game is garbage and not fun to play. Your first post was 100% accurate, no need to humor these shill spammers or justify the truth. Half of them are probably bots anyway.
