Wanna know how a game is being shilled unnaturally? If they dont even talk about a single character, especially a long game like this. This happened to starfield, dragons dogma 2 and other shilled games, they cant name a single character they even like. Even gameplay heavy games like Elden Ring and BOTW had characters people immediately like. I have yet to see a single piece of fanart, porn or slight discussion of a character they like

All I have noticed is that the buttblasted anti-dan response to the game seems to eclipse the positive reception of the game itself. The reception to the game seems to be fairly organic to me. It has threads, they talk about it. Nothing particularly groundbreaking from the game or the fandom. Typical shit. It will come and go. Might get a sequel. Might not. Probably be remembered fondly by most that played it. The negative bashing of the game is the thing that seems strange to me. They are PISSED that the game even exists. Not just this one though. I see them pop into other threads. Trying to make sure the first reply is something like
>buy an ad
>shill thread
It almost makes me wonder if astroturfing corpos aim their skills at the competition too, and have them trash talk anything that they aren't getting kickbacks for promoting. You might argue that Crimson Desert is unremarkable and undeserving of praise or something, and I would counter that by saying "shouldn't it also be so unremarkable that it merits just being ignored?". Yet here they are in every thread getting mad about a video game.

Idk, man. It doesn’t seem very organic to me, especially whenever someone says it’s not that good.
People start screeching about playtime and how it gets good after 30 hours, spam 4k screenshots and clips like they’re making a point, and then start screeching about rape

It’s not organic. It’s never done for any other
Game to even nintendo
>>
No one talks about the characters or story because they suck ass. Even people who love the game will admit that. Even the fucking devs admitted that. Elden Ring, bare bones as that story was, did a better job of having likeable characters. That's why people talked about them.
>>
>>737747167

I was kind of hyped for it when they originally presented it but the release made it seem like a completely different game and i lost my boner.

>>737747272

For once i´d have to agree. Maybe it´s because i´m itching for a good pirate game and skipped the original but Resynced is looking pretty good. Specially if they take away the overarching modern day Abstergo plotline and just leave us with a cool pirate game.

Not the first time i felt this way about the assassins creed franchise... when i wanted to play musketeer i had to play Unity, when i wanted to play around the Greek world i had to play Odyssey. You´d think there would be other good options to venture into those kind of settings but that´s just not the case. Same for Pirate games, i thought there were a lot of them but that´s not actually the case. It´s so weird.
>>
>>737749335
>it's never done for any other game
Bullshit. Bullshit upon bullshit. People reference the "having a blast" thing specifically BECAUSE it was being done for other games. That degree of astroturfing is reserved for the Marathon's and Death Stranding's. From companies that have the blessing of the west. Yes, that includes Capcom with their obviously western driven imperative to include females and colored folx. Aside from a few people that are riding the hype train for CD, and maybe giving it undue praise, I don't see anything out of the ordinary with the positive reception. Meanwhile the critique mirrors the talking points of the early journofaggot response. The same response they basically had to walk back already because they realized that nobody was buying their bullshit, and that they would have to be more honest so they wouldn't lose what little credibility they have. The game is nice for what it aimed to be. You could call it "mid". I would even agree with that. Most normal people just ignore mid games. They certainly don't camp the threads and make sure their negative opinion is known every time it appears in the catalogue.

If you are old enough to remember, back in early 2000s you could fuck around for days on end in gta3/vice city/SA, true crime, mercenaries etc without a single thought about characters, plot etc. Just going around, exploiting mechanics and doing stuff.

Good job openly admitting that you're just arbitrarily applying your standard to any game you personally don't like and it has absolutely nothing to do with astroturfing. You're literally the exact same Discord tranny as those shitting on Crimson Desert. God damn hypocrite.

It genuinely baffles me how lacking in self awareness you retards are sometimes. You are literally blind to your own biases and completely unaware that you have them. All of you dumb fucks accusing this game of being shilled or that game being shilled none of you actually believe that deep down, you just don't like the game and want to dishonestly shit on people who do, that is all you're doing and the fact that you have deluded yourself into believing your schizo shill narrative is baffling.

I just like finding stuff and going on a random journey that has me solving puzzles for an hour. The story is completely schizophrenic so there's not really characters to get attached to. A character will get namedropped and then killed a mission later with no context. I guess there's the camp followers but everyone hates those quests so no one gets attached to them either.

Fuck you nigger dont drsg DD2 into this

I like Yann. I like Naira. The problem is that due to the games structure, most characters only really show up for a single questline and then basically disappear from the game. There's nothing wrong with characters like Count Serkis, Grimnir, Countess Azerian and so on, but with how limited their screentime is, you don't very much bond with them before moving on to the next arc.

I actually do like Death Stranding. I just pulled some names that get obvious shilling. Two things can be true cuckoo.

I said "normal" people don't do that. Obviously we have resident autists that suffer from terminal fanboyism, coupled with literal advertisement bots.

Crimson Desert is too much of a niche gook title to warrant this much emotion on either side. So it's obvious which side is full of shit.
>>
>>737754936
You wouldn't say Death Stranding was shilled if you actually liked it. You saying that is proof you don't.

I also like Dragon's Dogma. The sequel was shilled, and shilled hard. I can like something independently of what goes on in the background since I'm not a one-track-minded drone. If I thought that Crimson Desert was getting astroturfed, I'd call it out because I want that fake, faggot shit out of my threads. Strangely, I believe the inverse is happening, and the goons running promo campaigns for other games spill off into other threads to smear anything that's not part of their campaign.
>>
>>737755223
You can't tell the difference between a game people like and want to talk about and a game that is shilled. The only difference is your bias. Ergo you assuming something is shilled is proof that you don't like it. You mentioning DD2 is further proof of that. You didn't like DD2 and were disappointed by it so now you have to assume anyone talking about it and liking it is a shill because you're too much of a pathetic, insecure loser to just accept the fact that people have different opinions than you and have to delegitamize those opinions you don't like. This is how everyone who throws out the shill accusation thinks, NOBODY on /v/ uses the accusation honestly.

Yeah, but what video game even does this well? What paragon of storytelling are people playing that has them holding certain video games to this gold standard?
>>
>>737755316
That's a lot of faggotry and assumption to validate your bullshit. Was I disappointed with some of what DD2 had to offer? Yes. I still played through it twice. Had a decent time. Had a BLAST as some might say. If you want to bury your head in the sand when there is obvious fuckery around, then that is your choice. If you thow out the term "bias" while you are operating on bias, then you just look dumb.

Not a bad list. Props for being brave enough to name some titles. Although, one on your list is literally a video game adapted straight from a book. Still, games remembered purely for their plots are exceptionally rare in the video game world. Nevermind that a large portion of video game players hardly care about plot anyway.
>>
>>737752821
Yeah, and CD has a good story. Not a great story, admittedly. It has weak character writing and a lack of exposition. But there's interesting stuff in it. It has a great sense of scale and memorable setpieces and an interesting lore it doesn't spell out too much. It makes you want to know what happens next and never repeats itself. It's way ahead of your average Elder Scrolls or Assassin's Creed plot.

I'm still waiting for the great story blue ball to happen. Seems like typical asian-inspired-by-western-fantasy to me. I don't really see what's missing, or what people expect honestly, but I'm not very deep in it since I keep getting sidetracked by side quests and gear collectathoning.

I disagree. I find the plot serviceable enough. But I am actually playing the game.

NTA but you don't need to be up your own ass or a literary snob to find it funny just how little anyone in the world, including the MC himself, cares about this guy who came back from the dead with all these god powers.
I don't care that the story is non-existent in the sense that it doesn't make the game bad, but is funny just how little the game even tries to maintain a story.

I firmly believe that if Crimson Desert looked like pic related then nobody would be hung up on the story as they are. I believe it's Nickleback syndrome making a comeback. I cannot belive how many overt Nickleback haters there are that can't even hum the tune to a Nickleback song when I ask them what song they hate and why. They don't even know what they hate and why. They just heard the talking head critics say it, so they say it too. Is it a simple and silly story? Yes. Is it worse than most of it's peers? Hardly.

I mean, no shit? That's kind of the point. That's like saying people would react more strongly to being able to cast Fireball in the next Call of Duty then in the next Final Fantasy.
Obviously CD has magical/fantasy elements beyond just the MC's powers, but it's still not as fantastical as a straight up anime game.

Nobody really saw Kliff die, everyone just kinda scattered to the winds, so it's somewhat justifiable that they don't really acknowledge it. Kliff just not acknowledging the fact he died is hilarious though.

No disagreement with your scoring. I'm not deflecting anything.

>>737767280
Yep, I heard the same dumb shit in the DMC threads. Nevermind all those posts in those threads that write off several of the entries for being total skippable garbage, and for one of the "best" being a backtracking half game. Nevermind all the in house criticism for this game for being bugged to hell. And even though fans DO critique the story, they somehow simultaneously are averse to criticizing the game. Whatever suits your dopey narrative. Maybe if your critiques read like the opinion of someone who has actually played it, I would be more likely to hear you out.

It's totally an anime game. between the robots, magic, transformations, and monsters how is it not?
>>
>>737767749
Why? Photorealism is just an art direction. Does something need to have it's plot and character's held to a higher standard simply because the art direction is photorealistic? Because that sounds like what you are trying to say, and that's silly.

Kliff is basically the security officer from OG Marathon minus the rampancy, he is a reality bending immortal cyborg

I chalk it up to it being that nobody saw it happened, so they only thing they knew was that "they thought he was dead". Also, since Kliff had experienced something so otherworldly and fantastical that most wouldn't even believe him, so he just doesn'teven bring it up. If somebody thinks that through, they can probably infer just that. However, since people grew up on painfully hamfisted storytelling, they think it's bad just because they don't dedicate more time to overexplaining what should be obvious.
>but he uses magic and flies around
Yeah, he sure does. And Aurthur from RDR2 goes on massive killing sprees and walks away as if nothing happened. It's a fucking video game, god damn.

You'll be fighting a boss and you'll think oh it's a human this will be normal but then he does the THIS ISNT EVEN MY FINAL FORM and transforms into a giga nigger like an isekai sub-boss after eating a cursed senzu bean. Then he shoots beams at you randomly.

Or you'll be time travelling and a guy will notice he's being watched and grabs you through the interdimensional veil and fights you lmao.

And then you see an ancient electric dragon being attacked by laser beams and he asks for your help and rewards you with a sword.

Then you'll chokeslam a bandit into a tree and the tree breaks then you pick up the tree and smash his friends with it.

It's way more anime than most anime games, it just went with a different visual style.

You didn't quote the whole sentence which is
>Obviously CD has magical/fantasy elements beyond just the MC's powers, but it's still not as fantastical as a straight up anime game.
So it's hard to tell if you're arguing in good faith or not.
>>737769274
>held to a higher standard
I thought I made it pretty explicitly clear that I was not arguing that. I specifically said
>hat's like saying people would react more strongly to being able to cast Fireball in the next Call of Duty then in the next Final Fantasy.
That has nothing to do with holding one game to a higher standard than the other, it's just about how certain things would stand out more in one setting over another.
Again, I really cannot tell if this post is being intentionally obtuse because nothing about what my post implies a
>higher standard
and that's a very easy and unrelated strawman to try and drag my argument into an unrelated
>you just hate this game and are being unfair!
when I am playing the game right now and enjoying it immensely.

What "straight up" anime games are more anime? I think you're getting caught on art styles when to be anime is more than that, in my opinion. The writing is anime cringe, the extremely random bosses are anime, the combat system is anime.
If it was cel-shaded would you still be making this argument?
>>
>>737770376
I think i misread your post, but I still disagree that it's "not as fantastical as a straight up anime game". There are plenty of anime series' that are more low fantasy than CD.
>>
>>737770789
> I think you're getting caught on art styles
To be fair, that's literally what was presented in >>737767158
and my only point was
>yeah actually, it is less jarring for a game that looks like the one that Anon posted to kind of glaze over crazy magical feats then one that looks like CD
You don't have to blow what I said out of proportion. It's really as simple as that. Crazy things are less crazy the less realistic and more anime a game already looks.

To add to that, I'm sure many people found it at least slightly jarring that in Strangers of Paradise, Jack and his gang are repeatedly shown dressed in modern casual clothing and Jack pulls out a phone to blast Limp Bizkit
and it was supposed to be jarring because they were placed in that world by a civilization that was far more technologically advanced
Ultimately, though this all boils down to a point that

he has NO PERSONALITY whatsoever you fucking stupid ass nigger, no one in that trash story does and the game STILL forces hours upon hours of AAA cinematic slop on you
And people just blatantly lie about the focus on the game being the gameplay

Good writing can do a lot for a game but you can make a fun game without good writing
Idk what people are even debating about
Yes people are going to have problem with bland writing if you have long expositions and dialogue sections in your game

He's a stand in for what was probably intended to be a CaC in a Black Desert expansion. I went into this with zero expectations and was pleasantly surprised. I never even played Black Desert. I certainly didn't expect something anywhere close to Geralt or Arthur Morgan. Pretty silly if you did. He is exactly what I needed him to be. A vehicle to elbow drop bandits.
