>Crimson Desert pushing updates every few days, players request fun things and devs add it. Player count keeps risingWhat fun things have the players requested that the devs were able to add immediately? I've never heard of a game that does that
Meh, I'm waiting for the Granblue Relink DLC
Playing this game feels just like going to work. That’s because it was originally planned as an MMORPG but was switched to a single-player game halfway through development.As a result, the game is filled with a ton of pointless, time-wasting quests.Playing it is just as exhausting as going to work.
>>736413371That's crazy that game came out two years ago and is still getting content. It used to be a game was released and it was finished and that was that. If it got DLC it was something they planned from the start so it came out within a few months. Now they stretch it out over literal years somehow.
>>736413403No crying at the casino bitch. Every game ever made is a waste of time.
>>736413493>No crying at the casino bitchWhy am I seeing Indians saying this recently? Did a vocabulary update go out?
>>736413571We just invented casinos. They're awesome
>>736413571100% american keep the tears flowing pussyits great watching you keep the thread you hate bumped
>>736413294Guys, i dont have social media, can someone tell the devs to add an auto-sheathe toggle? Also Kliff rests too damn close to bonfires, mf literally sticks his foot in the fire, and obviously you take fire damage, negligible, but still fucking annoying.
>>736413614>negligible
>>736413403Real talk, why would they need to make a new MMO when they've already got Black Desert? Couldn't they just keep adding content to that one? I never understand why MMO companies keep making new games instead of continuously adding shit to the one they've got.
>>736413484That game is secondary to their actual money makers so they really can just go back and add shit whenever they feel like it.
>>736413954That's true in this case but I feel like it's happening for every game now, DLC two years later long after everyone has moved on instead of back when the game was actually new and people were playing it. I don't know if it's because games are taking longer and longer to develop or if it's some new strategy to increase longevity of the game that they've been seeing success with.
>>736413294From patch notes, I don't think they added "fun things", just stuff that improves the quality of life like extra teleports etc. Where do people make requests that the devs read?
>>736414000Usually the game is released a little undercooked and they have to work to fix it with multiple patches coming out for a while which sorta keeps people playing and coming back. While they're doing that, they work on a dlc slowly in the background. News comes out, the game IS LE ENGOODENED NOW!!!! and then BAM, new content dlc comes outSad but this is what works in the industry now
>>736413294>players request fun things and devs add itDidn't they make the game way too easy because people kept being filtered?
>>736414171It's kinda depressing how No Man's Sky basically gave every other dev permission to do that, now every time a game is released shit you immediately getting people defending it saying "Give it a chance, they might be able to No Man's Sky it with patches!" I saw a post the other day about New World shutting down with someone saying he had hoped that would become one such game and begrudgingly admitting it never did.The worst part is they usually don't even change that much about the game, tends to be more or less the same game it was at launch but maybe it runs better than it used to and suddenly everyone's talking about how they saved it and it's good now. Just look at Cyberpunk.
>>736414257Some of the earlier bosses got health nerfs but those bosses are baby shit compared to later ones. Goblin Yoda spams death beams that one shot your ass.
>>736413614Toggle? Like how? He sheathes stuff in areas where no weapons are allowed >>736413762Generational upgrade?
>>736414158Mounts, instead of removing the air stab spam to fly they added new animations, lowered stamina cost of flying
Is the desert even crimson
>>736416930Is there any desert? All I see is trees and mountains, mountains and trees.
I might consider buying it during sale. Not worth 70 euros.
>>736417010How the fuck is a 150 hour game not worth $70? $2 per hour is an incredible deal.
>>736413614Most mmorpg companies just update their one game tho? And add expansions.
>>736417143Everything I've seen and heard about the game can be summarized as not worth full price. If the game requires multiple hours to get interesting its always a red flag.
>>736417379Depends what you find interesting I guess. I'm an open world enjoyer so I was hooked from the start.
>>736417143Not if most of those hours are spent doing things that are meaningless or unfunA game is not worth time alone. Some great games are shorter than 10 hours and probably worth as much if not more. You can make a game that will make you waste 600 hours by just having many unskippable ingame cutscenes, endless fetch quests, a big map with collectables sprinkled all over and heavy grinding to get to the latter parts of the game without jobbing. More and more games by Ubisoft/EA and the like are harder to finish in a short amount of time because they like to bloat these games to death and make you spend absurd amounts of time as though it's a counter for quality. In many, many cases, specially in these trying times where everything, even fucking tennis games, turn into an open world adventure, less is more. This is like saying a higher team and more of a budget spent on making a game makes it worth the full price if not more than that. Not really. Make a good investment next time.
>>736414502>Toggle? Like how? He sheathes stuff in areas where no weapons are allowedNo i get that aspect. Auto-sheathe in those places are fine, though it is a little cringe, but im mainly referring to while out exploring. If i want to walk around the forest with my greatsword out, whats the harm? Sounds dumb, but i always appreciate the option for immersion purposes.
>>736417521IS there an open world tennis game? I'd play that one
>>736417521Why would you play this open world game in the first place if content sprawl isn't what you want? Why is this game even on your radar if you consider what it gives meaningless and unfun? I think procedural loot is meaningless and unfun, and there's bunch of games that revolve around the concept. I don't touch them, and I don't think about them.In my view the game delivers exactly what it promises to.
>>736413294I don't give a shit about this game but after checking the steam chart it have better player retention than most modern multiplayer game KEK.So the game must be doing something right I guess.
>>736413762BDO engine has its limitations from what I understand and the games reputation is down the gutter as a P2W grinder with no real endgameI would love to see a new Korean MMO as good as BDO in its early days
>>736417810Me personally I hate tower defense games. But there's not that many of them so I don't exactly save myself from playing a lot of games by avoiding them.
Crimson Winsert
>>736416930>>736416961There is a desert, but it's definitely not crimson. From chart in pic, probably closer to coral
>>736417810I'm just saying your metric for quality is weird. I think there's a number of games out there for $2 that don't waste your time with stuff like "go collect some timber" or "clean up that chimney". It's even stuff that procedurally generated content can replace without it losing much meaning. It's normal for games of this nature to have stuff like this, but it's precisely for that reason that "time spent" isn't a good justification for spending more money on it. Some could even find it a detriment (after all, time is money for the non-unemployed as well).
The only problem is they've tanked the visuals and I don't see a single ounce of additional performance
this game mindbroke western journalists so hard when it is just a based as fuck non woke game so all players love it and tranny hate it
>>736419437I bought this yesterday.I don't know what's with the visuals. Everything has been oversharpened but I had no way of fixing that other than finding a random link somewhere for the very latest version of RenoDX for it (because the one linked in the RenoDX github made everything stupidly dark and the sharpening settings didn't work). I want to like the game, and I have no option to get a refund here, but the vegetation is some horseshit. The buildings at the distance look like cardboard. On a 9070xt which is the GPU that bundled this game as far as I know. "Cinematic" graphics are looking not much better than what I can get on Medium. I have a feeling something is genuinely broken in there. What's worse, I enable RR and it doesn't really look much better either, but the game goes from 110 to 55fps. Wonder what's going on.
>players love it>IGN seethes>4chan schizos seethe (for weeks now)>the jannies seethes and deletes the threadI fail to see the problem, it's non stop winning
>>736419219To be fair making the desert literally crimson would basically be eye rape while exploring it. It'd be like wading through a Virtual Boy game.
>>736419290Leisure is subjective, so leisure times worth is also subjective. I see those menial quests as fleshing out the world, which you probably think is stupid. There's one quest early on where some poor lad got his cows stolen and house destroyed. Another one is where some cocky bastard had the horns of his goats sawed off. You do the quests and move on. Later on you can find both of these no-name NPC's in the town having mini-epilogues to their quests, one drinking with some lads and another being grateful to the goblin guild recouping the losses caused by their bad leader. There's also a camp quest for rebuilding the house of the cow farmer.Small shit like this, it's fleshing out the world in my eyes. If you don't give a shit, then why bother?
>>736420360We have a real place called Red Rock and quite frankly it's not that red. I think it's ok for the name to not be literal as long as the idea is conveyed.
you retards the desert is crimson because it is painted with the blood of kliff's enemies
>quest to kill a bear>eventually tame it>still forced to kill itBullshitOn a side note - is there a way to get the effects of the pirate hat while not wearing it or at the very least, having it on non-display...? I really don't want to wear this but it's so handy...
>>736420547>or at the very least, having it on non-displayshould be in the options, patch from a couple days ago implemented hide helm options
>>736420547you just carry around shit like that and swap to it using the hot swap menu when you need it, e.x. in sanctums
>>736420587but if you hide the helm, how will you see when the feather glows?
>>736420603>when you need itWell that is a treasure hunter hat so ideally you'd have it on at all times to know when you're near treasure. But I found the range to be kind of shit so I never bothered with it (I think they buffed it though I haven't tested it)
I couldn't get 2 60% or even 1 40% no matter how long I tried so I give up and using 3 slots is good enough for me
>>736420704the rng abyss gear system fucking blows, wish there was a way to just spend more mats and at least up your chances of particular onestired of getting the shit with durability that just breaks, useless trash
>>736413294Can you pet the dogs?
>>736420901you can pet all the doggos and the KITTEHS TOO!!!!
>>736420847and how they filled up my inventory gambling and can't be sold or dropped on the floor :^)
>>736420901Yes, and cats, and you can feed them, and they become your pet and loot for you during battle
>>736420924Didn't I see something you can actually pick them up and carry them around
Ok crit rate vs attack speed vs attack?
>>736420981you can pick up cats, you cant pick up dogs
The only thing I want is field bossesI want to run into open world bosses that just live out in the world
>>736420985I prefer attack speed over everything but that's because right now I'm using 3 abyss gears that all proc off normal attacks so I just want them to proc more. I'm not even sure if abyss gears scale with attack and honestly the game doesn't do a great job even telling you what crit does like how much damage is a crit, how much crit % does crit even give. Meanwhile you can immediately feel the difference with stacking attack speed
>>736413294Can't wait for the roadmap :)
>>736420994What a load of bullshit, they should let you pick the dogs too. Maybe I can get them to add it in a patch.
>>736421061There are random elemental golems. Probably more stuff in later regions
>>736413294I hope they make it less chinky and shallow in the years of early access to come.
>>736421070no clue how crit rate scales actual crit chance but i think a crit is just a straight double damage attack
test
>>736420985attack speed has DR after 5 but I hit 10 with no effort by putting 2 attack speed 3's in my boots + 2 on 2 rings just to hit the break pointCrit is my priority and will hit 15 as soon as I can get this weapon to maxtl;dr don't worry about it as you'll be able to get lots of both unless you dual wield in which case each weapon has its own crit/attack speed
>there's a fucking zoo in the game
>>736421404does attack from gloves apply to weapons or just unarmed?and does that answer mean anything for attack speed?
>>736419219Theres no official names for these colors. Its literally just women making shit up to sell to other women. Its just red.
>>736421485attack speed is global and works with weapons too in boots and glovescrit/attack in boots and gloves only works for punches, kicks, and the unarmed "glove" weapon you can switch to
is this our thread now?
>>736421556well fuck i need to swap a crit gear and attack speed from between my gloves and weapon then
>cosplayers
The most OP setup the best weapon is a spear because of r1+r2 spam
>>736421556what about shields, if you're using a 2 hander do you still get shield benefits if it's on your back
>>736413403The only retards who say this have not played the game.
>>736421746yes, but only defense carries over (see how I have 144; 44 of it is from just the shield lmao) if it's on your back.It's why I like two handers. You can use the big defense shields that have shitty block because you're not blocking with it. Longsword or spear is your choice; spear has an op counter but after using one for 100 hours I settled on longsword because I like it's animations and forward momentum spamming R2 more
PLEASE HELPStuck at Cleanse the Sanctum of Veneration in Delesia - Mount Benus areaMopped up the cultist mooks Found the battery cube and stuck it in with force palm(no pillar head missing this time)Whole animation of cleansing machine coming alive played and sky beam shot out but i still get 'cleanse the sanctum' message and the quest won't finish.
>>736421914sounds like reloading the save is your best bet
>>736413294Is the game like kenshi?
>>736421959Not in the slightest its like rdr2+skyrim
>>736421959>>736421971It is like Kenshi in that it's also 200 fucking hours long
>>736421858>only defense carries overso damage reduction on armor then and defense on shield
>>736422125something like that, I don't use damage reduction because I can't fit it is all(1 food gem, fire imbue, 1x health and spirit regen 3, etc)
already used visione to listen to the conversation and picked up item from a chest after opening the gate behind the statue, but my lantern still glows blue, what gives? is there still some uncovered secret or does it just glow like that?
>>736413294>What fun things have the players requested that the devs were able to add immediately? I've never heard of a game that does thatwell they nerfed the most fun thing so I dunno about that... but yeah they did add more mounts.
>>736422272>the most fun thing was a glitchmeh go again
>it's green>it's not a desertDeepest lore I guess
>>736421938Quit to tittle screen and selected Play and shit uncucked itself.Didn't have to kill mooks again, just insert the battery.Strange.1st bug in like 60 hours so far.
Does Demenyss stay hostile all the time? I tried sneaking in the big city to look for new armor but it's annoying with all the guards.
>>736422289it didn't really look or feel like a glitch>>736422398that is a pretty dumb question dude
>>736422254Areas revealing visions stay like that even if you saw the vision already.
>>736422178think i've successfully min/maxed the fuck out of my stats at this point, really need to be able to turn all these crit +1 into crit +2also noticing that crit rate counts double on your amulet
>>736422678meeting the witches is how you do that, I'd recommend doing it as soon as you can. Some hard bosses on that questline, but force palm is your friend
>>736422753i've only got the first and elowen, just started chapter 6 so i can get attack speed +2 so far but not crit
>>736422496>that is a pretty dumb question dudeHow so?
the boss here was almost zanzibart tier
>>736422364Theres a desert
>>736422864No they don’t stay hostile once you progress far enough in the story
>>736423540Ok thanks, I'm halfway through chapter 7 or something.
the zoo is niceima steal an ele
>>736423584You’re close then
>>736413294If your system looks like shit, turn off the lantern. Suddenly the night scenes look beautiful.
>>736423626theyre overly bright most of the time
>>736423005kino graphics
>>736414385Studios run out of money. They release the game unfinished and then use your money to finish it. Better than the old publisher system.

i hate those puzzles to much it's unreal
>>736417143Nothing is worth $70
>>736425047did you never do these puzzles as a kid? they're easy
>>73642504790% of them are super easy because there will always be like 2-4 tiles that are already solved. It would have been a lot harder if everything was scrambled.
I cannot begin to describe how much I hate how fucking SLOW the camera moves in photo mode

>>736425227doesn't autoloot if you're hanging whilst drilling
>>736425047Those are fine but I seriously want to know the percentage of players that actually legitimately did that mural cave puzzle next to the camp.
>>736425126
>>736422753>Some hard bosses on that questline, but force palm is your friendSomehow the Sword was balls to the wall hard and a total casual filter for me, but after I beat him it's like I leveled up and the other two were no problemI'm not sure if he's just stronger or I actually got better at the game
>>736425334I did that one. Was fun.Then I found two more of them and couldn't be bothered.But those murals give a reward that reveals other secrets so it's kind of fair that they're a pain to get through. It's easier to track down marked locations than it is to track down every waterfall with a marker outside it

>>736413762It's incredibly difficult to attract new players to an old MMO, and BDO being as old as it is, I don't think it could have kept the company afloat for much longer.

do this one
>>736425716yes siiiiir
>>736425592When you solve them you get an item, when you use the item it marks the location of hidden caves on your map, which you'd otherwise have to find on your own

>>736425782It's a key item, I think it's under treasures.
ok for some reason switching to dlss 4.5L from 4.0 made the game look way bettermaybe something fucked up with dlss in one of their patches cause after patch .02 or something my game was looking fuckin roughnow it looks fine
>>736421678A fast sword + spear is hilarious because you can just chain the heavy overhead attack and quickswap forever, so your character is doing super armored heavy swings all the time

>>736413371Is it any good? kinda looks like final fantasy monster hunter
>liberate a place>cutscene plays>bodies of bandits disappearI WANTED TO LOOT THEM MAN
>>736413403I think it's more like the sims but for males.
>>736426129they get looted automatically and sent to private storage
>>736425334I solved that one on accident while drunk.Glad i got really lucky because lucid me would have spent hours on it.
>>736426178no fucking way
>>736426178Fun fact, this didn't happen in the pre-release version so journalist cucks had to suffer losing all their loot.
>>736420704You are supposed to do the research for the infinite arrows, combine that, the gear and just 1 stack of 100 just in case, you'll never run out of arrows again.
You are intimidated by 4K screenshots
>>736425365sword is difficult because you can't just chug food since his big attack will one shot youbut once you change up your strategy and use focus mode for an easy parry off his basic combo and then triple force palm to quickly build up his stagger he's not so tough
>>736417143>I love quantityslop!A 5 hour game done well will always be better than a 120 hour game that's boring and glitchy.
>>736426050those aren't hard just so damn slow to work on
thisgame had such potential for elves up in the north and we got nothingwe even got stalkers riding deers, but they're just regular people lmao
>>736426246I've had the research since the beginning of the game and it's not nearly as good. It's 1 stack of 50 REGULAR arrows that regenerate slowly. You WILL run out using multishot on bosses. What I have there is unlimited SPECIAL arrows, including whistling, sleep, poison, and explosive.Also I love these puzzles
>>736426262Describe this shit
>>736426296I found force palm inconsistent compared to doing two heavy attacks, not sure which is actually better since force palm probably builds more stagger but the damage from actual attacks adds up
Does Anyone know where your collected resources are in Pailune once you move? Like the free arrows stones silver they set out?
>>736417143>How the fuck is a 150 hour game not worth $70? $2 per hour is an incredible deal.
List puzzles that filtered you>laser rubiks cube - missed the small island where you control the cube from, did the solving myself at least>vault - didn't realize you were supposed to shoot the targets with your bow
Can they patch Damiane and Oongka to not be complete afterthoughts, nigh-unplayable, and absent for the bulk of the game?
>>736426341There's a few areas that feel elflike but no elvesI was genuinely fooled by the crazy hunters crawling around pretending to be animals, saw the red dots on the minimap and just got confusedAlso there's an area east of the Black Wall mountains that appears to have props in it but it's out of bounds. I do wonder how much they cut from the map.
>>736426452>HE MOVED HIS CAMPBetter reload your save quick, before you get sick of that shit.
Find a flaw
>>736426383i was switching between the two since the third force palm in the combo drains a lot of spiritgoing heavy attacks only is probably a bit slower since when you stagger them they take more damage and you can squeeze out about 2 full cycles of heavy attacks before they recover
>>736426538sky too brightwater too shinyfoliage too fast
>>736426538It has no art style
>>736426538shield too big

Now try this one
>>736426538Bow clipping through the quiver.
>>736426538Always looks a little fuzzy
>>736426383for me it seems that Fire Embue builds the most followed by palm, so I do an embue into 3x palm and then heavy attack when staggered

>>736426538Ghosting as soon as you move the camera.
>>736426465Frankly, the only "filter" with the majority of puzzles were trying to figure out which highly specific of the million tools they wanted me to use, and overcoming the will to perform the simple but long and annoyingly slow sequence of steps required to get nothing more than a lousy skill point.Speaking of highly specific puzzle tools, am I crazy or did the game never actually teach you that the light reflection stance can light fires? They introduced it all the way back at the beginning during the tutorial, but that was just to reflect light into a crystal to activate a thing (something I've not needed once in the last 50 hours and six chapters of play with a good amount of exploration), but never to light fires (which I've needed multiple times during two main quests, whereas the only method to light fires the main quest teaches you is by lighting arrows on a torch or brazier).
>>736426770HOLY SHIT THE NUMBERS MASONWHAT DO THEY MEAN
>>736426807And trying to get your arrowhead into a small brazier is borderline impossible anyway, the shit just wont catch fire
>>736426770Whoa, an 82%? GOTY!
>>736426668The plastic dead eyed sex doll model looks cheap and out of place.
>>736426872You have to be a very specific distance away, and the bow has to be in a specific aiming animation. For some reason, the arrow also never looks like it's burning while it's in the fire, but does burn when you move it away. It's all quite janky.
Crimson Desert4K Desert
>>736426872the torches on the wall are easier to light up with
>>736426935Yeah I never see the arrow burning at all unless I am taking aim. Even then, it just flickers a little spout of flame every now and then.It's increasingly irritating because when you are in the idle stance with a bow in your hands, you can get the arrowhead EXACTLY into the small brazier fire but in that idle stance the arrow apparently doesn't really exist and it won't catch fire even though the tip is in the flames
>>736426770It has over 90% when you filter by over 10 hours played btw
in the big battle in chapter 6 what are you supposed to do with these wagonsburn/destroy them? or can you make use of them or something?wut do

>>736427123You're not supposed to interact with everything, it's just flavoring
>>736427123wait nm i'm literally retarded it says to destroy them kek
>>736427080Yeah, and trump is the most popular president of all time if you only ask maga. What a retarded thing to say.
>>736413294At this rate im pretty sure they are just gonna add a character creatorbat some point
>>736427123You only need to destroy the one in the church when the objective pops up. And before you go fucking insane trying to figure out how they want you to destroy the wagon, you gotta use the light reflection stance indoors to focus the light on the wagon until it catches fire and very slowly and jankily burns, then stops burning, and then explodes into a cloud of splinters.
>>736427193What a fucking retarded point to make. If you filter by 10 hours played, you get the actual opinion about the game instead of first impressions that most likely ended before the prologue ended.You wouldn't judge a movie based on the studio splash screens either.
>>736427193>TDS
>>736427212i figured out how to destroy it before i knew i was supposed to so i was like fuck hope we weren't supposed to use that or take them to camp or something
>>736427272Why do you discount the opinions of those who have tried it and didn't like it? If you've played over 10 hours, you clearly like the game somewhat. So to still get a 90% from fans of the game is pretty fucking horrible, actually.>>736427291I voted for him twice. He's still a jewish cocksucker that everyone hates, except his base. That's the point I was trying to make.
>>736427414>So to still get a 90% from fans of the game is pretty fucking horrible, actually.mental retardation
>>736426320I strongly disagree. Video games are an investment if time and money. Your gay 4 hour tumblr story is not worth $20, fuck off.
is this kino or slop
>>736426178Not entirely true. It neglects dropped gear, which is the bulk of their value.
nasterpieacehttps://files.catbox.moe/9z2fgx.jpg
>>736413403Thats all in your headFor me it's a perfect game to just chill and lose myself in, zero pressure, just go with the flow/ Fight bandits, explore shit, get distracted by shiny things on the horizon. It's only a game.
>>736426369Third world poorfag hardware Get a job
>>736427518Bro, a 90% on steam isn't shit. Their grades are always inflated. And that's just from people who are fans of the game. Fucking grim. Even 10% of fans wouldn't recommend it.
>>736427414Because the game is pretty much an on rails shit in the beginning and doesn't represent the truth at all. It's the same as quitting MGS right when Solid Snake climbs up from the water into Shadow Moses. Would you trust the opinion of someone who quitted MGS when the gameplay started?
>damiane ((spencer))
So how do you use torches
>>736426465i look up every single puzzle
>>736427530Something in between. The story, the combat and the boss fights are kinda meh. But the world itself is great and there's a bunch of unintentional funny shit. Think of it like how MGS V is an awesome sandbox game, but a meh MGS game. This is kind of like that. If you expect a sandbox-ish game then it's kino. If you expect something like The Witcher 3 story/characters or Souls-like bosses, you'll be disappointed.
>>736427554This. So many of the complaints are autistic idiots who don’t know how to chill out and just fuck around.
>>736427592>10% of fans wouldn't recommend itNot exactly "fans" then, are they?Nothing is for everyone, and anything that aspires to be is shit.
>>736427193>CD seether is a leftytroon Shocking

>>736427496I have real open world fatigue. All I see here is a whole lot of empty, boring nothing that's going to take ages to traverse, with the most interesting visual on sceen being the generic houses in the middle distance and the tower far to the right. The fields next to the houses tell me that it's just going to be a generic farm with nothing going on and nothing worth interacting with, while the tower has a 50/50 chance of having also fucking nothing going on, or - if I'm extremely lucky - maybe a weapon lying around that I already sold several dozen of.
How is it on base ps5?
>>736427696I make way more than you ever will, thats why I can enjoy long, expensive and hand crafted games like this.

>>736427687>Not exactly "fans" then, are they?What a retarded /v/-fag statement. Can't you be a fan and still acknowledge a game's flaws? Or realize that a game might be hard to recommend to just everyone on account of its shortcomings? Or like a game, but still acknowledge that it's overall probably not worth the price of admission unless you're the exact kind of person it's made for? Can you imagine what you'd feel like now if you hadn't had breakfast this morning?

>>736427592who cares? You're seething and shitting yourself over the game and it does nothing. It sold a ton of copies. People like it. I don't give a single shit about the ones who didn't, or you, for that matterDie mad GRIM
>>736427712Very comfy and well optimized. Clearly limited versus higher end stuff but its good enough for me to dump 150 hours into it so far
>>736427701>All I see here is a whole lot of empty, boring nothingThis game is fucking packed, and it's not just copy/pasted shit everywhere. It might actually be one of the LEAST empty open world games in existence.>that's going to take ages to traverseTraversal isn't bad at all in this game considering that the most you'll maybe ever have to travel is like 10 minutes on a sprinting horse across the map while carrying a bandit on your back. For everything else, there's teleports everywhere, plus you can go up into the Abyss and drop down like as if you jumped out of a plane and fly anywhere.
>>736427617Having a bad intro is the developers fault as well, you know?>>736427687If they played it for 10 hours they clearly found something to enjoy about it. And they still gave it a thumbs down.>>736427689I'm literally not, you dumb fuck. I was just pointing out how stupid it is to point to people who have invested time in it as being the end all, be all in opinions when they wouldn't have invested 10 hours if they didn't already like it. I was pointing out the stupid polls saying 90% of maga approve of trump. Like no shit.
OH NO westoids and IGN and some twitter fags got filtered by the game and gave it a bad rating whatever shall we do

This dude was fun.
>>736427872>Having a bad intro is the developers fault as well, you know?Yes, I agree. But an opinion of a person who didn't even finish the intro is not an opinion worth listening if you want to actually learn about the game and not the intro.The game has countless flaws and is infuriating at times but it's still the most fun I've had in ages in vidya.
>>736428047Someone finding something so egregious in a game that they drop it within a couple hours are much more telling opinions than those by people who have wasted 120 hours of their life playing the game. Their opinions matter just as much as each other and should both be represented. You used the most favorable metric you could find for this game and you still barely cracked 90%. That doesn't sound like a goty contender to me.

>>736427880My 3060ti is shitting in my pants
>>736427496nah i'm happy with my own
>>736427868Anon, I've played the game, you don't need to lie to me. The map is really fucking empty. Most of the "points of interest" are just a cluster of houses with generic nameless NPCs milling about and maybe a generic store whose most valuable good on offer is a small bag. The puzzles are okay, but barely worth the reward as skill points quickly lose any value, making the notion of going the extra mile for shit like the "hunt these murals all over the map" puzzle ridiculous. Unique weapons or armor pieces are few and far between outside of quests, and rarely even worth going for, as not even all of them have some unique property/gear attached.Traversal is acceptable now, and it got to that point after being patched twice so flight is actually usable while still requiring a pretty substantial investment into stamina. Taking in bounties is incredibly arduous and boring, and trading with the cart even more so. But that also doesn't address my core complaint that you can traverse vast distances of the map without really coming across anything that feels like it was worth exploring for. Even as far as vistas are concerned, the game's pretty thin. The cliffs and grasslands quickly look the same after a while, as do the generic hovels and homesteads. You have to travel pretty far afield to get something fresh to look at.

>>736428242>Nah, how about fuck you and your gay mmo trash game.That's completely fine and valid opinion, it's not for everyone. I, for one, am the kind of player who gets absolutely rooted to my chair when there's a game that immerses me. I can play Factorio, Space Engineers, Crimson Desert, Nioh 2 for literally 20 hours in one go with nothing more than piss breaks.It's a great game for me, I can just wander off into the distance and find something to look at. And the biomes are pleasantly different from each other, not just different colors.

>>736428339More than enough to know what I'm talking about. Can we stop being disingenuous now, or are you going to hit me with that old "Ooh that's barely past the intro" garbage? I'm well into the main story, I've done a good amount of side content, and I've been to every area on the map.

>>736428635I post about this game because I bought it and fucking hated it. Am I not entitled to my opinion? Seems more hinged than you fags since you CDslurpers told me gyro control was gay and nobody used it when I said this game could really benefit from its inclusion. So why should I try to have conversations with stupid faggots like you ever?
>>736428732The game genuinely feels like it was vibe coded as well as vibe designed. So much of it has that slapped-on feeling where I can almost see ChatGPT responding "Yes, this is the exact right way to approach the world feeling more alive! A cart-based trading system will truly drive home the feeling of the player forming a proper faction in the game's world."
>>736428760it would be the max 15 for burning immunity
>>736428783This, I just press light attack + heavy attack and it kills enemies, topples barricades, brings down towers, stuns bosses

>>736428662It's designed for keyboard and mouse. I can control Kliff's movement speed quite finely despite only having binary on/off keys to move with, it's nice. Whoever enabled that steam prompt to plug in a controller when you launch the game is a master troll, this is a kbm game.
>>736428752No, it's like it was an mmo designed for mouse and keyboard. That makes it all the more bewildering when they recommend you use a controller. Everything about this game screams kbm.
>>736428517I remember when journalists tried making us care about "crunch"
>>736428840I wonder who could be behind this post
>>736428504I don't know what to tell you. I love open world games and feel like this is definitely the best one I've played in a decade. The last one that allowed me to just fuck off in a random direction and continually discover a bunch of stuff was 15 years ago in Skyrim. The loot not being super rewarding has to do with their design decision of making it so that stats on gear is similar, so that it becomes more of an RPG-lite and it lets people wear whatever they want. It's one of those either you despise it, or you don't mind it, kind of things.If CD had The Witcher 3 writing and all the bosses were Souls-like, it would unironically be a 10/10 game for me.
>>736428880...and there's yann
Ai generated game
>>736428783Might be I didn't use the one specific attack with the "cart destruction" flag set to true. I wacked at it with heavy attacks and stabs to no effect, didn't find a torch I could light my arrow with, found no throwables or whatever to use, went through the gauntlet of puzzle-solution moves of grappling, force palm, stabbing, and whatever the fuck to no avail, so I just googled what the fuck kinda specific thing they wanted me to do here, and that's the answer I found.
>>736428835Most of the so-called life-skills like trading wagons and farming is lifted from BDO. It's cheap and fast and gives you something infuriating to do to pad out the content.No need for any LLM bullshit platitudes for that kind of design since it exists already in their old game and frankly the design feels just as old in CD as BDO
Abyss Kutum? More like Abyss CUNTUM
>>736428841This is not a kb/m game.
>>736428934Pro tip: you can chop a tree, pick it up, slam it onto Kutum's head, and it will oneshot him
>>736428997her hair kind of looks like candy
>>736428982It is. I dunno what to tell you but it's designed with a keyboard and mouse
>>736428879Like they were the first group to ever work overtime.What a bunch of cunts.
>>736428982>This is not a kb/m game.Keyboard and mouse is infinitely better than controller for this game. Not only can you rebind everything, so that if you don't like having to press combo buttons like it's a fighting game, you can literally just set it to 1, 2, 3, 4, but you also don't have to shit where every button has 3 different actions depending on context, like controllers do.
>>736428841If it's a kb/m game why does the camera move like I'm trying to simulate an analog stick with the fucking mouse?It's sluggish as fuck. Help me out here.
>>736427123>>736427212or you can use them for trading?
>>736428982I feel like kbm eats inputs ridiculously often. For example the "double jump" which is actually a bounce jump translated wrong works only half the time. And doing the triple aerial force palm after the bounce jump is sometimes finicky as fuck as well.
>>736428813I’m glad you ruined such a kino experience for yourself. Only 12 more years until you’ll have another big fantasy adventure like this, maybe youll calm down by then.
any helms that go nicely with this armor?
This game is fucking dogshit
>>736426369ai generated smear
>>736429101You need to set the mouse acceleration to 100. The slider works inverted in Crimson Desert, acceleration at 100 makes your mouse work like hardware mouse.
>>736429101>Others -> Options -> Input -> Set camera acceleration(mouse) to 100There you go, camera is fixed.
>>736429115Not sure if it matters but I've had nvidia reflex turned on in settings since day 1 and controls always felt responsive to me. The double jump does still turn into gliding sometimes though.
You know, I always mocked Skyrim for having no quest design other than "go into this dwemer dungeon/draugr tomb", but Crimson Desert might actually be worse. All it has is "extremely long and boring walk & talk that ends nowhere near the quest objective, then go somewhere else and fight a couple waves of chaff", only shaken up by the rare "run all over and listen to a million dudes drone on through unskippable and boring dialogue before answering a bunch of questions", which is somehow even worse. Yeah, Skyrim's quest design is abysmal, but at least it's usually over quickly and doesn't waste my time listening to some faggot go on and on about an irrelevant part of their gibberish story.
>>736429158Looks more like fucked up maps than AI slop. It even has the burnt through edges in the pattern.
>>736429115>>736429185Double jump is fucky because of how it's coded, not because of inputs. It will work 100% of the time if you are standing still AND on a flat surface. As soon as you are NOT on a flat surface and/or inputting something else at the same time, it has a chance to just not work.
>>736429196Anyone who played BDO will recognize CD's quest design and writing. Except for a few story quests with proper cutscenes, it's basically the same. Except in this game they don't let you fully blaze past the text by mashing one button, and there's no auto navigation for mounts.
>>736429064Designed with for controllers to be used. You need concert pianist level finger dexterity to play it on kbm.If you want to do things the hard way have at it.
>>736428614what armor?
>>736429295>You need concert pianist level finger dexterity to play it on kbm.You can literally rebind anything to anything. Don't like having to hold shift + left/right click for a combo? You can just rebind it to the 1 button and then press 11111 repeatedly. This can be done for everything, to the point that you can use everything in sequence by just pressing 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.You can make it as hard or as easy as you want.
>>736429282>there's no auto navigation for mountsYou can hold A to auto-follow during the walk & talk segments, but since most NPCs elect to move infuriatingly slowly, it barely helps.
>>736429274Also flat surface and standing still isn't enough if you're next to a wall that can be climbed. The double jump input doesn't register as double jump, it just makes you try to grab a hold of the wall.
>>736429196How much exposition do you need?Those assholes are stealing from me. Go kill them.Brevity is wit.
>>736429295>You need concert pianist level finger dexterity to play it on kbm.Keep in mind this is a korean game. Every korean toddler learns to 1a2a3a4a before they're permitted to enter preschool and if they can't do it they're disowned and thrown across the DMZ.
They walk into a bar
im supposed to go rescue white crow now, should i actually go there or is there something i should still do here in hernand?
>>736429073The AI "controversy" is going to go the same way. People don't care about crunch or AI. They only care about getting the product as good and cheap as possible.
>>736429496You can freely go anywhere at any time. You're never locked out of doing shit elsewhere, except for the times where you're forced to play Oongka or Damiane segments.
>>736429420Yeah that's decent but not the same, in BDO it will straight up navigate a whole route across the roads to any marked destination and you can hold a button while on your horse to gallop your way there. It feels like a very MMO-esque gameplay-skipping thing at first glance, but I think it'd be better for this game since it'd give a convenient alternative to fast traveling.
>>736429496You should save her anon. she trusts you>hernandIs not going anywhere
>>736429393Schtump Cloth Armor. Got it from the cloth armor 3 book.
>>736429446>Brevity is witExcept this game is anything but brief in anything it does. I would fucking love if that was all quests were. But instead I have to listen to Yann or some other faggot piss and shit for hours as they very slowly ride to a far away point that's still half a mile from the actual quest objective. When I finished the long battle at the end of chapter 6, I almost closed the game then and there when it insisted that instead of teleporting to the fucking beacon myself, I had to follow this soldier cunt on horseback and listen to him yammer on about nothing. It's gotten to the point where just reading "Follow..." in my quest objective causes me to turn around and look for something, anything else to do.
>>736429121Nah. I actually played one of my favorite games ever this year. Got around to playing e33 and had a blast. I got the sandbox shit out of my system playing gmod 20 years ago. I guess this is zoomers first sandbox.
>>736429597>almost closed the game then and there when it insisted that instead of teleporting to the fucking beacon myself, I had to follow this soldier cunt on horseback and listen to him yammer on about nothingkek, oh man, you might want to sit down for this oneYou can actually do that. Just go to the beacon and light it. It skips the yapping.
>>736429563>>736429567alright then im going to push main story a little more
>>736429636Motherfucker. All the other times I tried skipping that shit by going directly to where it wanted me to go, it canceled the quest.
>>736429230the game is ai generated... maybe not in the way you think>find cave or a dungeon/mini dungeon>cave has a hole gap above, ceiling >exist gave look above>no gapmaybe dungeons are only ai genaretd but i bet everything is and never was checked by a human inspection checker
I'm in chapter 3 and the combat just doesn't feel satisfyingI just spam R1 + R2/triangle/circle/squareI feel like the game plays itself when I do that in these bandit group fightsbut then again I haven't fought anything but bandit groups and the 1 knight in the city and that jewish goblin bossmaybe my brain just wants more fights?
>add hide helmet>no more early game screenshots with mattias helmowari da
>>736413294good, I'll still buy it when it's 30 bucks
>>736429317>more retard babbleDiscord sisters, take your lost retard back, thanks
>>736429685It does fail the quest, but it doesn't matter. Once you light the beacon it just skips past the "follow this guy" quest entirely.It seems you can do this a bunch of times even if it's undocumented. There's a quest before the war where you're supposed to report to the beacon on the way first. I just didn't do that and went straight to the calphade camp, and the game skipped ahead.
>>736429317>niggercattleYes, that is a good word for people who sit online all day screeching about a video game they do not like (and have not played). Have you tried getting a job (and no, applying to be a janny doesn't count)
>>736429703That's never going to meaningfully change. Holding R2 solves most of the Dynasty Warrior-esque crowd fights no problem, with only elites maybe requiring an actual move, but not really. Bosses are about half gimmick fights, so while you can use more attacks there, there's a very good chance they'll just be immune or no-sell whatever special property the attack has (like the grapple on stab and such). The combat system in this game is very utilitarian, and you basically have to decide to make it harder on yourself, but then use shit like the grappling moves and such.
>>736429703also am I just doing something wrong or are there barely any armor/weapon upgrades early onI don't think I've swapped anything but the helmet and chest, the merchant in the city didn't have shitI guess chapter 3 is basically still tutorial, maybe that's why
>>736429798>Why would anyone get mad when they feel they wasted $70 on mmo slop?>Oh, and gyro is bad for some reason because the game doesn't have it
>>736429863The game's just weirdly stingy with armor. You can find boss sets, but they're generally scattered far and wide throughout caves, merchants only sell one set each per region, and farming enemies for their sets takes fucking forever because they mostly drop broken equipment.
>>736429863>also am I just doing something wrong or are there barely any armor/weapon upgrades early onYou gotta explore to find shit. Like 90% of the gear in this game comes from caves, waterfalls, puzzles, and boss fights.
>>736429564in BDO the autopilot makes sense really because you end up spending fucking endless hours on the road just zipping between towns and nodes
>>736429893>it's someone else's fault I bought a game without knowing anything about it>it's someone else's fault I played it past two hours and didn't refund because I'm a retarded homunculus>it's someone else's fault that I sit on 4chan screeching about it for 12 hours a day instead of working 1.5 hours of overtime to pay for the game you deserve it
>>736429693bruh that kind of thing exists in countless games that are older than LLM slop.Dark Souls 2 being a prime example of interior/exterior conflicts
>>736429629Gay, yeah you live a depressing a pointless life. Best jump off a bridge. Its for the best.
>>736429703The generic enemies in Hernand are almost always bandits. It only changes a little once you get to Pailune and some of the enemies will clothesline you or use elemental attacks, then in Demeniss where enemies are too tanky to just spam attacks on and they come in massive hordesBut I think fighting the generic mooks is mostly a power fantasy, like that's your place to express how you want to fuck these enemies up rather than fighting to survive. Chapter 6 has a fun segment that's exemplary of this
>>736430067>you are depressed and miserable because I think you like the wrong kind of thingsjust stop posting
>>736428212Name a game released in the last 10 years that had a better open world. I don't think you can, but if you can, I'd actually be interested to try it. I'm loving cd so far
>>736430165cd? how about dvd? it's literally better.
the worst enemy is the combat camera
>>736417143Value isn't only about length, it's about the quality of the experience during those hours.
>>736430061dunno i never notice that i always play games where artists actually care about their craft. it's non issue just an immersion killer. that's why i never played souls shit. gothic was always the better choice
>>736413371My GotY but CD is this years GotYWill be playing ER when it releases.Marvel tokon in augustGTA6 later this year.Decent year for vidya. Shame RE9 was a bit of a let down but still worth playing.Will finally play the pragmata demo at some point and play the game next year I guess.
>came up here to get an axe that had an ability that makes flawless timber drop more, need 20 for my bow>open a random box inside the house and get the 20thanks game
Can any anon who have completed the story explain to me what areas the chapters take you to please.I am in chapter 7 and I dont want to go to CD before I explore the other areas fully.
>>736430285how are u farming so many abyss things to upgrade gear
>>736430249Ah, I didn't know you had such a good taste, my bad. Gothic is a masterpiece.
>>736430338Anon the game basically never "takes" you anywhere, you can go to the desert right now if you want. And if the story quests point you to go there, you can just not go until you are ready.
>>736428997Where is this armor from?
>>736414385>Just look at Cyberpunk.>>736424248Cyberpunks core ssytem changed. They redesigned all the skills and how it works, plus it dropped with the DLC.The core function of how the build system works completely changed and when a game like that, where its whole appeal is the RPG aspect of builds, its a complete change.
>>736430369you get a fucking ton but as you can see my stats are not very upgraded although I have all the moves. I've cleared out most of the forts and shit on the map because I find them fun; EXP bar filling up gives you a point.If I could do it again, I would craft some 20% exps before clearing areas out.
>>736426918But enough about Starfield
>>736430206which game dvd actually abbreviates?
>>736430452It's quite far away, I won't post the map icon to not spoil it for people but you can just google "Crimson Desert Damiane skirt location" and it will show you.
>>736429274I wish they added some other key or combo to activate the glide, leaving space for just jump input only.
>hundreds of gold bars in the vault of vengance>can't take themUeeeeeee
>>736430449What I mean is what area the main story is driving you towards.I of course know the game is go wherever you want though ironically faction/side quests only open up per story progress.What i am asking is what is the devs intended exploration.Point is I was in chapter 5 I think and it had me go to deminiss chasing crow caller, then it sht straight to chapter 6 and I am in calphade fighting a massive battle. i didnt get any time to explore deminiss and now in chapter 7 (the start) it has me heading towards north of demeniss while now there is side content in calphade.it is clearly obvious that the chapters take place in certain areas of the game world and that is when you should be exploring that area, so I want to know what areas each chapter is the story taking part.Chapter 7 looks like its pailune.Where is chapter 8 onwards taking place/Does the story take me back to demeniss?
Sick
>>736430391gothic 1/2 both are both masterpieces on their own waysgothic 1 the immersion masterpiecegothic 2 mastering its predecessor with gameplay and controls but not as immersive
>>736430165Define "better". Most open worlds generally fall flat precisely because they fail to utilize the vast expanse of terrain they bravely laid out before thinking about how to fill it with actual content.Dragon's Dogma is for me unsurpassed in rewarding exploration. You can climb around and do weird platforming or balancing acts along janky terrain, and more often than not you'll eventually find something there - gold, a potion, a chest. Just a touch that is both a small reward, but more importantly a sign that some level designer looked at the map, realized you could theoretically path here or there, and then put something there, just as a little "good job, man".You'll probably not like my next answer: The Horizon games. They're more compact with less wasted terrain, more varied environments, and the "random" combat encounters are generally more involved and thus interesting, partially because the combat is just decently fun, partially because there's almost always a use for the loot you find to improve your character slightly.I also really liked Outward. It's jank as hell, but it makes traversal interesting because just going out is a commitment that requires preparation and resources, you have to actually learn the map and layout of the terrain to traverse effectively on account of the map not showing your location, and everything that looks interesting from afar generally has something worth fgoing there - a unique weapon, armor piece, or rare crafting components, if it's a bigger area, potentially multiple.
>>736430137Just end it bro, no one would even notice
>>736430693Ahh, I see. I think I am at chapter 7 as well but I did make a trip to the desert already. Honestly the story quests lately have been all over the place I think
>>736430693I'm on chapter 9 and I think that's when you're supposed to explore Demeniss. Before that it's crawling with big patrols of hostile soldiers and none of the shops are open, now everything seems accessible.In chapter 9 you get moved beyond Demeniss a bit.
>>736430338you don't go to the desert until like 11 or later
good and fun game
>>736429019killed it; and it was easier to smack it around with the sword than to prep a caber!
I don't even know what half the stuff in my kuku pot is even for
>>736430834>>736430840>>736430858There seems to be an intended way for each chapter on what you are supposed to be doing. Chapter 5 was full on camp shit, 6 full on calphade and I expect 7, maybe 8 being full on pailune then.What i am essentially doing is mapping out segments of the map and exploring in kind of small grid areas. I know things open up later with story progress I just want to fully explore the map myself and before moving on with the story.Obviously not ringing the bells either.
>random crow dude shows up for some reason>picks a fight with Kliff>reach his stinky tree in the abyss>apparently he's mad because his mommy pays more attention to Kliff than himWhat the fuck was his problem? I think I quite literally talked to the White Crow bitch exactly once in the entire game? Did they write this quest line for a hypothetical game in which the mystery sky niggas actually do anything and have dialogue with Kliff?
>>736430949pretty jank at times and then pretty kino and fun at times
>>736431027Same. Expect it will come in handy later. Just seal shit when you see it. You can always get it out.
>>736431082I can't remember a single second of the whole thing because I was BLASTING so hardblasting vodka and amphetamines for three days straight that is
>>736431082Its just an anime tier ride, everything is a premise to set up for whatever cool shit they put in the game.
how do i unlock more abyss spots?
>shadow claw>crows>spirit echo>stamina siphonNice argument, Senator. However: R2 spam.
>>736431032ring the bells idiot
Some of these sealed abyss artifacts challenges are really annoying to do. Like how am I supposed to find bannermen to kill in a region after a certain story point when everyone is friendly to me there kek
>>736413294>Player count keeps risingwrong, this weekend had lower peak than last weekenedStill not gonna buy it anyways
>>736431445stfu I rang your mum's bells last nitedingdong ditched that cow lmao
>>736431445It unfogs the map idiot, how are you then gonna keep track of where you have and have not explored.
>>736431312I still wouldn't mind if there was some sense to the events in the story, and they at least loosely related to one another, or were placed in a sensible order that follows logically from what came before. I don't know, I think that would be nice to have in a narrative. But so far every part of the story has just been something between outright gibberish or a complete non-sequitur. I have genuinely no fucking idea what's going on or why I should care.
>>736431495>Still not gonna buy it anyways>not playing GotYretard
>>736431082It doesn't make any sense but makes sense later. The game is written so everything appears to be cryptic nonsense but like 80 hours later you go "oooooh oh yeah".When you kill a sanctum boss like Antumbra's Staff for instance, the voice of Ator will say some cryptic zanzibart like bullshit to the boss as he dies. It's actually directions to find a superboss. "seek that far ridge where the storm-lord never sleeps" is directions to find Beloth the Darksworn. He's on a remote plateau permanently covered in blizzards.
>>736427874cry non stop since release like you have been doing maybe>>736426538it just doesn't look interesting, going outside is more fun
>>736424975>stumble upon this randomly while exploring>stumble across the ancients>free this nigga from captivity >get a Dragons Dogma sequel cutscene praising my effortsHoly K I N O
>>736431490I just ignore sealed artifacts. You'll get more skill points than you'll know what to do with anyway, and going out of your way to do some annoying challenge for one measly point is not worth the time or effort.
>>736426538based screenshot chad
>>736431590>remote plateau permanently covered in blizzards.I that south west hernand?
i don't understand what im supposed to do here? i killed probably like 500 of these guys by now and quarry is still not liberated....

>>736431621I ignore the shitty ones>ride your horse from leper village to Varnia in 40 minutesnope>craft this stupid Kuku item just to get one skill point plzuh-uh
>>736431650You need to find and kill the boss (Marni's Excavatron). Activate the quest for this area and it should point you to the arena.
>>736431650retardbro, there is a bossand the boss is one of the two objectives...
>>736431650kill more lil pupand beat the boss
>>736431650There is a % bar Keep killing niggas until that goes down and then a boss fight is on the other side of the quarry. Probably should get the quest on though, that is not the right quest.Also that challenge is easy to do in the spider infested castle north east of the quarry, abandoned castle with loads of those banners, just go there at night.
>>736431719Every now and then I randomly unlock one just by playing normally, but I'm not going out of my way to do some bullshit for a shitty skill point.
>>736431773I think they're fine for the people that want to do them. I also skip a few puzzles that look AIDS to do, like the sun/moon one in the same pit the kid for the kid village quest
>>736426126It's more like Genshin impact monster hunter, just the gacha is in game currency, not real world dollarydoos. It was pretty good on launch but very grindy. Not sure if multiplayer is dead, but you can solo.
>>736431773I've had the fucking 15 counterattacks in 30sec with spear for like a hundred hours by now and there's no chance of ever getting it done, highest I ever managed was 4
>>736431754that bar went to 0 and nothing happened, guys keep respawningi'll look out for that boss, but i just came here without a mission so i guess that's the thingi wasted 30 minutes in here man... omg
>>736431969...just to check are you using its special counter (R1+circle) and not L1?
>>736430465>core function of how the build system works completely changeddid they the original utility of the arm upgrades? gorilla arms=ignore strength checks for walls/doors, mantis blades=wall traversal, cyberwire=mid-range ignore hack checks. Did they make stealth fun and rewarding? did they make non-story gameplay more than just spamming generic bounties in each district to unlock the cars? did they implement the monorail system for in-universe fast travel? did they add full third person gameplay? aka, all of the things that the game was initially supposed to have and shown off, but was cut because the devs are pathological hacks.
Reminder that the whole anti shill spamming is from a couple of neckbeards on a discord they do this for every popular game
>>736417143American maths at work
>>736432071they also showed their dicks to ecker to try to ban evade, which is deeply funny when you think about it. >>736431405I found 2 is the sweet spot for stamina costs. 3 is a little much, and then you can put in 3 crit III for 9 crit on a two hander
>>736432008Yes but there just aren't enough attacks ever aimed at me to reach 15. I should probably buy a shit spear in fact so the enemies don't die too soon
>>736427804>>736427872If you wouldn't recommend it, you're definitionally not a "fan".You're just a dissatisfied consumer.
>>736432247that thing aoes so hard that I completed it in 2 uses, even though I one shot everyone
>>736431839That one was extremely simple but still fun when you realized the diorama in the middle was the maze.
>>736431082The writing was apparently handed off several different times which is why some characters never show up again. You meet crow mommy later and she has zero effect on the plot.
>>736431839The lockpick tumbler puzzle was pure fucking cancer despite being simple on paper, just logic puzzle. But I had all the tumblers in place and the shit just wouldn't open.And the one where you have to move the big cubes in the puzzle. There was ZERO indication that you could stab the cubes with your weapon to pull them.
>>736432549>There was ZERO indication that you could stab the cubes with your weapon to pull themI'm pretty sure that one had one of those holograms telling you about the stab. The main challenge with that puzzle was mustering the patience to very, very slowly move each block into place, for what you already know is a worthless reward.

>>736430693If you don't want spoilers from here, you could always start the next chapter, see where it takes you and then return to complete the previous area's side stuff. The game seems heavily front loaded for Hernand, but I'm only at chapter 10 which takes Kliff to (play) Crimson Desert.If I ever start a 2nd playthrough, I'd slow down the mq progress and level up gear and skills for a power fantasy experience
>>736431316U mean the sky islands? The main quest will occasionally take you to one of the spires (fuck tall towers) with a puzzle, then they will send you up to a new area up there that you couldn't otherwise reach. From there, you do a few of those puzzles until you can't no more, then continue the main quest, and so on.I shamelessly resort to guides, because sometimes the janky controls don't do what I intend, and the correct solution is a matter of repeatedly doing the same thing until it happens. BTW force current skill is superuseful for all those "slam a thing into a slot" tasks, like sanctum pillar heads which are in awkward locations. Also, make sure your particle quality is not set to 0, else you won't see the green leaves flying around items ready to be punched in
