>Another Chinese/South Korean game that gets blatantly """discussed""" here then evaporatesStellar Blade, When The Wind Farts, etc. Why can't they just make good games instead?
It's cheaper and easier to just pay a handful of indians to do shilling for you.
>>738165326They DO try to make good games but they are soulless so they can't do it right and instead fire up a birrion bots to astroturf instead.
>>738165326>single player game sells millions of copies and is talked about for a month and then discussion dries up because it's overshocking
The shilling these games get is so transparent. It's sad.
>>738166438Yeah, I can’t think of a single other game whose criticism caused that much seetheNiggas started posting screenshots and clips like they were going to prove something>Show me your playtime >Post a screenshot while doing cartwheel in the game>You only played it for 30 hours, it actually opens up after 100>There's a heckin dragon
Crimson Desert is great. Where Winds Meet is probably decent but the translation, at least on release, was unplayable dogshit and the UI sucks. Plus, I'm not gonna pay a game that uses AI shit for almost every other NPC. Stellar Blade is just terrible all around
The stellar blade thread just got deleted that's why.
>>738167396Troon hands posted this
>>738167396what are the specific parts about crimson desert you like?i have put a few hours into the game and its not gripping me at all, the entire design is incoherent literally nothing makes any sense. why do people enjoy playing it?
>>738167396Your taste is dogshit, tranny, Stellar blade is a 8/10
>>738168834>>738169063I'm a man and unlike you I've never been confused for anything other than a man.>>738168997Oh, a lot. It has good combat, which is extremely unusual for an open world game. The world is beautiful and generally rewards exploration. The puzzles, particularly the abyss ones are really well made and I love the physicality of them. There's just something so tactile about fiddling with all that magical technology. Art direction is on point, all the environments have great atmosphere. Story is a really compelling blend of Eastern RPG tropes in a western, post GoT fantasy setting, it's basically FF XVI done right.Overall just a damn good game. One of the few open world games not made by CD Projekt that actually hit the spot for me
>>738165326I have a 100hrs+ in this turd and Assmongler is right, its fucking dogshit, they are basically constantly remaking the game because they rushed it out, its a scam game. Control system sucks, UI is cluttered and garbage, story sucks, characters sucks, bugged out the ass. All weapons are FAKE and simply cosmetic, your first shitty gear and default sword is basically all you need.Who would have thunk a worst korea game is actually WORST!Do not buy shitrean games, they couldn't even copy Zelda BOTW right, nothing in this turd is properly executed, only copemaxers and buyers remorse is what you get for this overpriced gook garbage.
i have 30 hours in, barely touched the story, just hop on for an hour or two punching bandits off cliffs. if you like skyrim, it’s far better.
>>738169318this is really surprising to mei have huge issues with the combat and puzzles in generalthe combat has so little balance, you have so many different things and so much of the game is broken as fuck, so many bosses are overtuned, so many abilities you have are insanely strong, eating food just seems to be the default and expected strategy with how much its supportedits deeply unsatisfying to see something with so many different unique combat mechanics fall completely flat in the face of enemies that are just NOT designed for it on any level>they just bully the fuck out of you and you have no way to deal with it (siege tank bosses that just ram you over and over), or >they can be effectively permanently stunlocked with zero chance of ever getting an attack off on you (sitting in focus and deflecting, or just spamming blinding finisher)the puzzles also suck ass with tons of them being one off mechanics with zero real indication on what the solution is, and since so many things in the game are just purely contrived solutions >stabbing a big chalice to "empty" it instead of tipping it, smashing it, grabbing it with physics, jumping in it, shooting it, etcyou end up just having to google a lot when you get actually stuckeven the abyss puzzles which are almost exclusively physics item based have some really shitty ones where it is the first and only time in the whole game they make you grab an item through bars and maneuver it through a little mazeeverything else can be grabbed out into a kuku pot and sucked out that way.like, the game has a great foundation, but they spent way too long making a list of literally 600 different contextual and specific action you can do, and then designed a game around them. its like they downloaded an entire library of generic 3d animations and fit the game around every single one.i literally cannot think of any other reason they would make so many different unconnected systems
>>738165326I understand why chinese bug people cant make good games. They are incapable of creativity or making any kind of art. But koreans are basically culturally japanese and can make good movies, but it never translates to their games for some reason and are all sterile and soulless like chinese games
>>738165326Finished the game with nothing to do post-game, nothing to talk about. Everything in the game only exists for the sake of visual noise so i can keep playing the otherwise extremely boring game. I can see what they're trying to do though. Will probably replay the game again in a year or two once they stop constantly changing the game like it's an early access title.
>>738165326I hope you're not a burgercuck because Burgerstan's record of making "good games" over the last 10+ years has been fucking terribleIt's been nothing but far-leftist propaganda and ugly brown women
>>738170636Yeah. I guess in a country where everyone left of Henry Ford is considered a socialist and everyone left of the Clinton's is considered a communist revolutionary, some games that came out in the last 10 years would be considered "far left propaganda", but if I, as a leftist, want to play anything I find remotely politically insightful, I sire as hell don't boot up a recent American Triple A game. I start another playthrough of Silver Case or Killer7.
>>738169318>Story is a really compelling blendcome on bruh
>>738170974Propaganda is never about being insightful, it's just about forcing "the message"
>>738170636Mewgenics mogs gookslop
>>738170312>chinese bug people cant-ack!
I don't think it's a cultural problem. I think it's that both those countries are trying to imitate the AAA industry and AAA has been shit for decades. The only hope they have is with indies. This open world slop and cinematic third person soulslikes ain't gonna do it.
>>738169063>Soulless cardboard NieR Automata>8/10lmaaaaao
>>738165326Games that end always get forgottenLive service is the future
>>738170975What? I like how it's presenting as "Oi, mate, da lord of 'ouse Poshchester is supporting a coup against 'ouse Norfshire by pitting his most loyal knight Sir Cuntington against 'im, I says!" and then you fight Sir Cuntington and he has a title like "Knight of Breaking Wind", wears an armor like a Power Rangers villain and uses some ridiculous superpower. It's a lot of fun.Especially in the latter chapters where it gives the villain a flying fortress, you go have a Kung Fu movie training arc at a literal buddhist monastery in the mountains and in the end it turns out it all the 138th cycle of a timeloop inspired by the 138 attachements you need to let go off to attain enlightenment according to buddhist mythology. Fucking kino as hell.>>738171194What fucking "message" does Doom: The Dark Ages have? Or Hogwarts Legacy? Or Last of Us 2? Or Ghost of Yotei? Other than kill the bad guy (except killing is bad, actually)? And it's telling that those are the only notable American high budget games I can think of. I'm pretty sure the rest was all live service arena shooter Overwatch clone slop. Almost everything noteworthy that came out this decade was European, Asian or indie. If American studios were trying to propagandize anything, they failed completely. As a leftist, I feel fucking Resident Evil does more to promote the cause than any recent American production.
>>738171839>What?

Fucking kino as hell.None of sounds like a compelling story
>>738167396I'm not going to encourage anyone to play a gacha, but the WWM translation is fine and the AI thing is like a side quest minigame where you have a Cleverbot chat with an NPC to get them to say something to progress the quest. Most characters use normal ass dialogue like you'd expect.
>>738172457It is, in the sense that it keeps you curious about where it's going next, which big setpieces it's gonna deliver, who's gonna be the next flamboyant villain, what kind of interesting location you're gonna visit, what's gonna be the choreography in the next battle cutscene and so on. There is a decent sense of progression, going from sweeping chimneys and fighting bandits in the early chapters to having massive battles and killing gods in the latter chapters. And keeping things fresh inbetween. It's not deep or anything, it pretty much makes its point early on, literally spelling out its overarching theme (True strength comes from humility), which it repeats at least once later in the game and doesn't develop most of its characters enough to make them more than just their role in the story but I got never bored or tired of it or felt offended by anything in it. It's a very fun fantasy action story.
>>738172828See, now Stellar Blade's story is something I can't find any redeeming qualities in whatsoever.
>>738171458Nier niggers deserve the rope
>>738172828Maciej fucks THIS?
>>738172903Tell that to your gooks ripping that shit off
>>738165326Retard plebbit normies like the game because it's a walking simulator with little direction or depth beyond that.
>>738171283how dare you speak the truth
>>738165326I bet most people are totally burnt out. I kinda am.Average playtime is probably like 150 hours and nobody has completed the game, but it is really good.
I finished the game yesterday at 260 hours, still some sidequests left to do.Its a very flawed game but I loved (almost) every moment with it.Somehow the game takes me back to the early 90s when games were fresh, fun, had terrible stories and ton of stuff that just didnt make sense, but you could see the passion behind all of it. When I was restoring the second of third goldberg machine factory where you just pull levers to activate a ridiculously elaborated machinery for no real purpose other than some devs thought it looked cool I couldnt help but smile at of how candid they were for wasting time and resources like thatThis was my true Dragons Dogma 2
>>738174425anything over 40 hours of playtime to complete everything is bloat
>>738175065no you're just a person that doesn't like good video games
Bro didn't you hear? Wu Kong is the next big thing. This game is gonna sell like pancakes
This game must be incredibly impressiveif it’s your first AAA open world game in a decade
>>738174425I did complete the game in 80 hours. Like 2 bosses left and only fluff request quests left and challenges which are just copy paste shit
>>738174896"Hey boss wouldn't it be cool if the player could cook dropped meat by shining his sword on it?" "Yes. Put it in the game"
>>738175171I love how much random shit their is, it's literally a developer's game. the story shit is an afterthought, they were busy making deep game mechanics 0.1% of players would learn about
>>738165326I beat the game. Now I've moved on. Simple as that.
>>738165326Now search in the catalogue and you'll see there's hourly threadsSuch as yours
>>738175153well there hasn't been any good AAA open world games in the last decade
>>738175259you're clearly unemployed so how do you earn a living
>>738175416I don't need to earn a living
>>738175216There's so much hidden shit but there's little tiny quests that show you how to hunt for it. The map puzzles giving you memory fragments that show waterfall caves teaches you that there's some way to get behind waterfalls. There's a random bounty that turns into a treasure hunt that leads to you figuring out that some walls have symbols on them showing that you can force palm to get inside a hidden space. There's the fishing village quest that leads you to a pirate ship where you find a hat that glows when you're nearby unique treasure chests. I'm sure there's plenty of other little things like that that I haven't found in 200 hours.
>>738175525>There's a random bounty that turns into a treasure hunt that leads to you figuring out that some walls have symbols on them showing that you can force palm to get inside a hidden space.implying anyone did that kekI wonder if anything teaches you about the sanctum minigame
>>738175171>>738175216I was a bit surprised you could drown animals you're holding, or tied up enemies if you threw them in the water
>>738175579The sanctum stuff is intuitive because of all the kuku pot items that require the sanctum cores. You notice immediately that some of them are named after the sanctums you probably already completed and go back to check if you missed something.
>>738175372Have you played any of them they are all like this with loads and loads of content with writing
>>738175626the real secrets in the game are game mechanics like that, or the combat stuff that they don't teach you at all.

>>738165326Crimson Desert is just a offline Black Desert. And it's boring. It's like Assassins Creed. Exploration without logic or sense.Not a world that was build and filled with real adventure, but a a world build around a checklist.

>>738177516Yeah but the comfy threads on release were so well comfy man
>>738169063This, Stellar Blade is a genuine good game.Crimson Desert is also pretty good but the game has a weird focus on its dogshit plot and quests that detracts from the experience. Crimson Desert could be hugely improved by outright removing stuff, such as all of the main quests and all the quests that have you follow some npc like it's rockstar slop. Otherwise it's extremely fun.
>>738177643>weird focus on its dogshit plot and quests that detracts from the experieyou did in fact not play the game

I don't get what's really good about this game. I'm not trying to dismiss its potential but I'm about eight hours in and while there are some interesting unique secrets here and there, it all feels like a big ahh game fulla bullshit. Does that ever change?
>>738178606what the FUCK???
>>738166301Elden ring is still talked every single day here and that's a game that is 4 years old now, and has far less content than crimson desert
>>738178732twice as many people are playing crimson desert right now
>>738177569That's coz players still discovering shit and asking questions outnumbered jeets pasting journo points. It's the same with many games on release, the best time to play it is early before the sense of wonder is ruined by thousands of "THIS BUILD BREAKS THE GAME" slop videos and /v contrarians
>>738178769Okay? ER is 4 years old, CD is barely 2 months old Which game has the most staying power? Want to bet on that?
>>738179043I think CD does even though it doesn't have multiplayer. I already played it way more but I'm not finished yet and then I'll play it again. The updates have added a ton of gameplay too, and there are mods and we will probably get more of those.

>>738178732What part of 'single player game' did you not understand you fucking retard?
>>738165326Crimson Desert is basically "Honeymoon Phase: The Game". It seems amazing it first, because wow, it's so big, so involved, so many mechanics and systems, so much to explore! It takes a while to really set in just how little the game has actually going on beneath the glitzy surface. It doesn't have a single original thought, its gameplay is shallow as anything, its exploration heavily guided and excessively pointless, and most - if not all - its subsystems are utterly pointless, poorly implemented, or both. It's a game that makes a great first impression, and manages to stretch what little it has so far that you can play for dozens of hours before realizing that you were duped.
yet they still all have 10x more players than maratroon KEKAROOOO
>>738165326Best game of the decade, easily.

>>738186390I've played bothCrimson Desert giga mogs any Fromsoft shit even in the combat. More depth, more combos, more enemy variety and with the new difficulty patched in, even more difficult. Keep in mind, as an open world too it actually has variety and also interactibility within the open world. Contrast that to Elden Ring that would have remain unchanged had it not been open world at all. Riding around on some horse from the same roll slop gameplay i've been playing since Demon Souls to the next. It's actually not even close to how much of a better open world game Crimson Desert is.

>>738186757>more enemy variety>humanoid enemies in red, blue, yellow and green
I was wondering what happened to threads about this game, it went from basically having a general and its fanboys dropping mentions of it in completed unrelated threads to nothing. Meanwhile we still get near daily Fromsoft, Zelda seethe, and E33 threads. Before this thread there were probably more recent RE9 and DD threads.
>>738165326Weird how no one ever makes these kind of posts about tendie gamesMP4 discussion has completely evaporated despite it being an extremely overhyped game

>>738187141Same with SSwhich not as good as HK >>738187165It had something like 4 results on R34, making it a bro game in the same category as Ubisoft and CoDBecause games with artistic merit and vision usually get good amount of porn
>>738187165>literally MEMES AND PORNPoketards do that because their games are fucking dogshit and need SOMETHING to fucking salvage it. Good games like gook desert don't need that kind of shit
>>738165326150 gig, if a game needs that much space you know that 80% of it is just useless bloat, worse since its an open world game they seemed to just have cramed so much content into it just for the sake of it not being empty space like most other open world slop but all that stuff are useless and have no effect on the overall story, I could be wrong but thats the idea I get when looking at this
>>738187329Memes and porn suggest cultural impactand people are actually caring about the game beyond surface level engagement
>>738187413>MUH CULTUREYou will never get your dubs back /v/igger
>>738187445It's just a fact that the game is very surface level, despite all the claims Adding more disjointed activities doesn't make it any deeper
>>738186921I'm not seething, I just hate that I can't read a simple discussion without some brownoid derailing things because they can't read.
>>738187561You really need to MMO-brained for this game, the design screams MMO. If you like that sort of style then it's fine.
>>738171458The combat is nothing like nier. And frankly the gameplay is better
>>738171283Mewgenics is soulless proc gen slop.
>>738187367also this game was supposed to be an MMO at first but they changed their minds midway and made it singleplayer, that alone makes me sceptical about the story since we know that MMOs arent known to have good stories or good gameplay
>>738187864People who play MMOs literally do not want action gameplay. They want the dumbest tank > healer > dps shit where they get to ERP with other trannies online while trying to groom minors. Crimson Desert has none of that which is what makes MMO faggots seethe
>>738186390Yes, all of that crap is garbage.

>>738187165>>738186970>>738186835its crazy how mad this game makes people when they haven't even played it lolit's SO good
>>738186970>humanoid enemies>robots>bears>dragons>ogres>giants>stone structures>flying lazer beams>planesWhy pretend to have played the game. I, unlike you, have played both Elden Ring and Crimson Desert.Also it's ironic you say this when 90% of Elden Rings enemies are "Oh these are members Radahns army" and "Oh, these soldiers are from Leyndell".
>>738187258>he doesn't check the konig and ghost porngrim
>>738165326Yeah just look at Mewgenics and Casualties Unknown. Genuine discussion, real video games, every single anon having a good time. Americans and Japanese are humans and want to do human things like enjoy vidya. Chinese and Korean bug monsters are inhuman, and wish to mimic the human spirit. They are inherently unnatural. We don't shill our games, we just fucking play them.

>>738188903I'm from a country with a functional economy, I don't need to shill. Don't you have a delivery to make? Try not to get turned into a mile long smear on your scooter.
>>738188987Porn is not a metric of quality you fucking baboon.There's more porn of my little pony than there are humans on Earth, that does not mean the characters are interesting.
>>738189076Then why are you chimping out?
>>738165326How do I get paid for shilling this game? What is the min wage for shilling here?
>>738188987it's only a metric in how boring the game is as people would rather watch/make porn than actually play it
>>738189126Because I'm a racist and I hate (You)
GAAS and social media engagement bait has done irreparable damage to genuine discussion.
>>738189140..wage?They don't get sent to the gulag if they shill.
>>738189098>that does not mean the characters are interesting.It does, it also means character are well designed and not bland af like in CD forget about porn there's no fanart either
>>738188350>OP: why aren't people making threads about Crimson Desert?>(you): if you make threads about Crimson Desert you're a shill!Do you fucking "people" read your own posts before hitting submit?
>>738189164Lol noall great games get a lot of porn, fanart and memes
Crimson Desert sucks man. I put nearly 100h into it before realizing I had formed almost no memories. Realizing I could play through the entire dark souls trilogy in the same time frame was kinda the end for me. It's just a big pile of nothing.
>>738189353>my little pony is well designedHoly fucking kek>no fanartThere's a fuckload of screenshot sharing and webm making. Almost like people are playing the game instead.
>>738189568That's all copethere's no fanart or porn becauseCharacter design and art direction sucks ass
>>738189403Pokemon hasn't had a good game since the gameboy era. You're delusional.
>>738189606>people playing the game and sharing screenshots is copeLmao
>>738189630>Pokemon hasn't had a good game since the gameboy era.Could have ended that sentence 4 words earlier.
>Stellar Blade>inzo>Wuchang>Crimson DesertSomething has to be done about the blatant shilling games like these get. It's so transparent.
>>738189568This game is like nu-Zelda in that its fanboys just love making webms of TECHNOLOGY and their choreographed kills that don't really represent the moment-to-moment elements of the game.
>>738189353the game has clips and obscure tutorials instead of fanart and porn, it's just not that kind of game
>Assassin's Creed but bugYou people have horrible taste
>>738189675>Lack of artistic merit is not a cope
>>738189771except it actually has technology unlike botw
>>738189801No, they're just paid
>>738189738At least Stellar Blade still gets threads pretty frequently, this game just disappeared.
>>738189771>the game doesn't have press rt2 to win, so seeing anything complex is too much for my feeble mind>>738189815>buzzwords

>>738189849The fauna in this game is the most varied I have seen for a action game. Too bad cant say the same about enemy variety

>>738177785Not gonna lie, bug shill, this is a good shill post. It you weren't shilling something as blatantly soulless as this, I'd be fooled into thinking you were actually a 4chan resident
>>738190073Show me another game that has a regular chameleon actively change its camouflage.
>>738189885What is this guy gig, playing like a retard while looking like Marty Feldman lost son?
>>738189886got a source on the refund count?or are you just illiterate
>>738188403AAAslop fucking sucks, though. As provem by Crimson Desert and Concord.
>>738177660As much as I cream over cd, that's one of the points I can emphatise with. I was able to enjoy the game, but some of the quests did seem a little plain and repetitive - I switched to just exploring or puzzle solving for a while until I could be asked to do them again. And it's something the devs themselves have admitted they wanted to come out better. Mindlessly saying the game has no problems is as bad as the shitters who haven't played the game and copypaste their fav ttv fag
>>738171839>What fucking "message" does Doom: The Dark Ages have? Or Hogwarts Legacy? Or Last of Us 2? Or Ghost of Yotei?Masculinity bad, niggers good, be a faggot, suck cock
I only played for 5 hours, but here's my impression>The game's graphics are on par with Cyberpunk but better than TW3 and RDR2. >Story is unnecessarily convoluted >Puzzles are annoying AF>Combat is pretty average
>>738190198He was testing to see of spamming attacks wins you encounters it doesn't
>>738188401How the fuck am I meant to know what clips you're choosing to watch lmfao. It's a 150 hour game, youtube shit. What you're saying is just objectively false.
>>738189226China/South Korea shills have done irreperable damage to discussion of good games on the catalog.They'll bump Crimson Desert + Stellar Blade threads then bump threads about the new Naughty Dog game or whatever the new Dustborn is to try to make their shit smell better by comparison. Result: Nothing but bad games on the catalog, all in service of bug marketing.
>>738190268Fuuuckkk youuuu don't put my goty in the same sentence as that woke trash
you know a game is good when all the discussion of it is dedicated almost entirely to the graphics
>>738190413

>>738190470>He thinks his soulless bugslop is worth the time of day any more than wokeslop isI suppose it is, by 0.00001%. Good thing there are lots of games and I don't have to spend time on either.
>>738190516Why does this game look so shitty whenever the lighting isn't bright?
>>738188401Bro, there's 24 legendary creatures you can hunt or tame, and half of the 80 bosses aren't even human.
>>738190268Indie Games are uncreative garbage. They don't even bother with level design, it's all proc gen garbage. Amerifat games suck.
>>738190578Roguetroon slop is soulless, amerifat.
>>738189785>>738189885Yk most good games have both clips and art But CD just sucks ass in the art department

>>738190092>You are a goy because you care about art direction you are a literal retard
>>738190949No, he's being paid by the Chinese to say stupid bullshit
Are koreans even human? Because how could a human being invent such a retarded control scheme.
>>738187165I have never seen a single piece of CDD fanart, lore and porn discussionAnd all of the memes that I've seen were all about shitting on the franchiseJust sayan
After having played quite a few dozens of hours,The world itself is "pretty", has some secret caves here, some ruins there, towns don't all look the same, there's some variety here and there, but traversal is ass (specially climbing mountains) and I often just forget that I have a fucking horse and that there's actual mechanics around itQuests are the most boring shit I could think of, the greymane quests are nothing but GTA/Assassin's creed minigame tutorial missions, the "help NPCs around town" quests are nothing but "head to this marker and talk to this NPC and come back" (and there are MANY of these), the investigation quests are not punishing in any way and you can just guess over and over, there is nothing good about theseThe combat system seems deep but then you realize nothing can realistically fucking hurt you and you have to make it fun yourself (and a lot of it is just hordes of bandits, I think I must have killed 3500 of them already, it eventually just becomes exhausting), you can also just instantly healThere's a lot of bullshit micromanagement mechanics that I honestly do not care enough about -just- for the sake of getting rich The story is completely disjointed. I swear to god some dev accidentally removed some main storyline missions in between. One second I'm participating in a target shooting contest with some bromane and the next I'm trying to convince this dumb motherfucker not to summon some intergalactic space demon that will destroy the earth and fuck your mom. I swear to god these people took random scenes from random movies and just plastered them all over a story about greymane looking for greymanes to fight this bandit leader because otherwise it's too boring.
>>738190424>>738190708>24 legendary creatures you can hunt or tameBut fighting them must be lame afthat’s why nobody posts it because it just looks like AC where you spam abilities and heavy attacks but with 300 particle effects
>>738190921Nah, I was talking in general terms. But even crimson desert has more effort put into it, and more human intentionality than the typical Indie slop. Indie slop is the definition of soulless. They all copy older AAA games and have procedural generation. Graphically they are always uninspired. And they rarely ever have creative gameplay. It's all derivative.
>>738191071>Open world slop>But made by KoreansI mean, yeah... What did you expect?
>>738190986I am being paid by the Chinese to say game has no fan art because the art direction is bland and boring? thanks Mr Xinping
>>738191098This dude is crying about indie soul copyijg old AAA games meanwhile the games he shills like Crinson Desert and Wuthering Wavea copy MODERN AAA shit. Zero self awareness.
>>738191049And COD games is known for being artless, surface level cattle slop
>>738191098>They all copy older AAA games and have procedural generation. Graphically they are always uninspired. And they rarely ever have creative gameplay. It's all derivative.But enough about CD
>>738191135No, the guy you're replying to. I was agreeing with you.
>>738190578If you want top tier plot go read a few 100 kamige, I'm 149h in & while it's not the best with a few quirks - - still enjoying it. Everyone crying about >plotHasn't even played Full Metal Daemon Muramasa, Muv Luv Alternative(INSPIRED ATTACK ON TITAN) or even Subahibi. Read those then tell me about plot.
>>738191175Yes, shame that we are talking about cultural impact here you fucking retard
>>738191175Isn't press F to pay respects from COD? That's more impact than anything you're likely to see from CD.
>>738189885i remember saying "hi" in this dudes stream and he immediately banned me lol
>>738191171>>738191236Sure, but atleast CD has higher production values, LMAO. It's not low effort slop. Also, show me another single player open world game that has CD style combat. A unique combination of mechanics can also count as originality.
>>738189963Isn't it the most varied period? Since it has so many biomes.I'm actually pretty disappointed in the hunting, since the best way to kill them is to just kill them with your blades kek.>Too bad cant say the same about enemy varietyIsn't it good too?>>738190073But it was programmed. T hat's what SOUL is. There's so many little things like that in the game.
>>738191072>there's only human enemies>ok there's not but fighting legendary creatures is lame :(This fucking board man.
>>738191638I don't care about open worldsl slop
>>738190418I hate how that cpe clips and seems kinda low poly or something. It looks so good when you're sitting still.>>738191072>must belol
>>738191732Are those lizard enemies from nu-Zelda soulful for doing the same thing?
>>738191638>muh production values in my soulless slopYeah, this perfectly encapsulates why the China and South Korea shills on /v/ from the past few years are utterly disgusting.
>>738191824Yeah, you play low effort Indie proc gen slop instead. LMAO.
>>738191832It's because 4chan is a shit website that doesn't allow high quality webms.
>>738165326The mark of a good game is the player count, or fellow developers' praises. People are playing Crimson Desert. Crimson Desert is a good game.
>>738191638>CD has higher production valuesSony and ubi games also have HPV (lol)> show me another single player open world game that has CD style combat.Literally every single game things exclusive to that game But would you agree that >They all copy older AAA games>Graphically they are always uninspired
>>738191914Seethe amerifat shill. Your roguetroon slop with proc gen levels is the definition of soulless.
Fights on hard are the lamest shit ever, you either spam turning slash or die in 2 hits
>>738191832Like i saidonly humanoid enemies
>>738191879not really because they're enemies, that's an ambush gameplay mechanicit was a nice touch but soul lies in the little details easily missed more than in things everyone will see.like in crimson desert how choirs or singers will gather at church on sunday at certain hours of the day. 99.999999% of players never see it naturally yet the devs put a lot of effort into that. or this parade here>>738191945I'm not talking about the clip it looks good there.
>>738191963>Literally every single game things exclusive to that gameHoly ESL. Learn English first, amerifat shill. This is the IQ of Indie shills.
>>738191985>Your roguetroon slop with proc gen levels is the definition of soulless.True that's why i play good indie games :D
>>738192048Idk why I always eat up words, fuck!My point is ruined, Crimson Chads wonit’s over for the West
Posting my troonSneed it or keep it?
>>738192638Way too edgy. Maybe not your fault since it seems the game frontloads the player with red dyes and spikey armor.
>>738192035lol
>>738192038That's cool and all but there's been bland MMOs that do that sort of stuff as wellMaybe they could have tried with the NPCs by not making them as basic as dragon's dogma pawns, would be interesting if any characters around town were worth giving a shit about or if they had a secret life of their own or something. Yes I want to know that the banker is sneaking out at night to fuck some goblin prostitutes
>>738193020But I want to be edgy. I was going for a somewhat Sauron look.
>>738190516
>>738193118>That's cool I know.>and all but there's been bland MMOs that do that sort of stuff as wellNot really. You're just lying to yourself. >Maybe they could have tried with the NPCs by not making them as basic as dragon's dogma pawns, would be interesting if any characters around town were worth giving a shit about or if they had a secret life of their own or something. Yes I want to know that the banker is sneaking out at night to fuck some goblin prostitutessure that would be cool but this game is about exploring and fighting shit
>>738192638That basically looks like an intended character design. You should enjoy playing the game with that. The only part I might change is the face to make it less dark.
>>738193323Ok but if it's about exploring and fighting shit, why add what you just mentioned in the first place?See it was "this game has a lot of things" and now it's "this game doesn't need to have a lot of things".The developers don't deceive with their description of the game (open world game, not RPG, nothing like that), but some fans really goddamn try.
>>738193464why are you pretending to be retarded
>>738193640What is this webm supposed to be proving about the game?
>>738165326>discuss game>SHILL>don't discuss game>DEAD GAMEyou queers are patheticgb2 r/gamingcirclejerk
>>738193118There is not a single mmo that has good combat. Not a single one.
>>738194564tera had excellent combat
>>738194564Holy fuck you dune coon, I'm talking about this>like in crimson desert how choirs or singers will gather at church on sunday at certain hours of the day. 99.999999% of players never see it naturally yet the devs put a lot of effort into that. or this parade hereNot everything is lineage 2 and ragnarok online
can I pirate it yet? and without hypervisor, preferably
>>738194924Nigger, mmos don't do anything better than a single player game made with similar concepts and game mechanics. In fact they strip it all down. Primary example is Elder Scrolls Online compared to literally all prior Elder Scrolls games.
>>738195142Nope
>>738178732>half the thread are crying about it forever>much like this threadyou just gotta make more to catch up FAGGOT HAHA
How much of a "life sim" is this game?For example, in Skyrim I could go adventuring for materials, then spend some time forging some shit, travel around selling said shit to merchants, then buy a house with the profits.That kind of thing that helps you getting immersed in the world and sort of just exist in it.
FOTM slop is quickly forgotten soon as the shill money dries upTale as old as time
>>738195619Just play Enshrouded
>>738165432I don't think it was jeets for this pile of garbage. They were shrimp dick Koreans constantly having racist meltdowns.
>>738195619It has parts of it.You have a house you can buy furniture for.Garden your own shitTend your farm, buy or hunt animals for breeding and slaughterI never engaged in any of that but its there if thats what you like You could waste days fishing rare pieces too
>>738195742nta but god dammit I wish there was a game that was like enshrouded+crimson desert, I'm replaying enshrouded after like 400 hours of cd and it's so comfy, I can't help but imagine how a game with cd's budget would go with enshrouded's crew directing development
>>738195619>>738195813you can drive a wagon full of trade goods for profit, chop down trees or mine ores, and invest in stonks too
>>738195619It has all those things and it's extremely immersive, but it isn't an rpg like Skyrim. There's a criminal system, a stock market, farming, herding, a pet system, army battles with faction alliances, housing with furniture. Even buying items from merchants is immersive as you can literally point at an object displayed on their table/shelves and buy/steal it, or buy/steal items from traveling merchants backpacks, but you can't really "be evil" as the whole point of the game is to help others so that they can help you find your missing clan.
>>738195619>>738196303Example: Every object behind that bartender can be bought or stolen. You can even pick up and move the box and stools behind her, you can also pickpocket her if you want. When you open her inventory, if there's an item your character hasn't seen before he has to "observe" it to learn about it.
>>738179468Both are the first good triple A games I've played since Prey 2018.
>>738179468>trying to bait negative engagement between two completely different player basesNice false flag.
>>738195742I really should.>>738195813>>738196105>>738196303>>738196485Alright. All of that sounds pretty damn good.
>>738196756Yeah, one plays good games and the other doesn't. Pragmata >>> Your soulless slop.
You're way too obvious.
this whole thread is 3 people talking to each other
>>738194490Get another script, slanty. You can't hide behind SJWs forever.
>Open world slop, but made by bugsWoaaah
>>738196303You can murder a guy, ransack and then loot his house and throw his corpse in the river. But yeah, I suppose you're still the "hero" after all is said and done (just like in Skyrim).
>>738197041and it's still 10x better than any game made by niggerfaggots (Americans) in the last decade.
>>738197186Mewgenics mogs your slop
>>738197136You can, but there's some heavy drawbacks. Murder absolutely destroys your reputation and the bounty isn't cheap.
>>738196303> but you can't really "be evil"I mean... you can slaughter people and find creative ways to kill them
>>738197232If it's just one guy in the house then there will be no witnesses. You can do it at night with the civilian costume on which makes you even harder to detect and it's basically free at that point.
>>738197314I forgot about the costume the goblin sells. Hell the game gives you thief gloves to steal any one item for free per day.
>>738197230Miss me with that gay shit senpai.
>>738197186Neon Inferno is short and sweet and obliterates your bloated soulless bugshit
>>738197186Animal Well is better than every Chinese + South Korean game shilled on /v/ in the past 3 years combined
>my literal who indie slop is betterYou should have just stuck with Mewgenics. Maybe threw in a Silksong, but this is just pathetic.
Even the nuIndiana Jones game with Troy Baker is better than your astroturfed bugslop.
>>738197750Silksong is obviously leagues ahead of gookshit, but it's Australian.
>>738197186False Spiderman was better this
>>738197846Silksong is an extremely rare case of a 3 man dev team making a game that no other large studio could make.This attempt at pitting every game, no matter how drastically different the genre is, against Crimson is fucking retarded.
UFO 50? 50 times better than Crimson Desert. Threads lasted longer, too.
>>738198059If we only compare your shilled trash with other open world games, then we're arguing about which shit is the least smelly. I'd rather bring up good games instead. You can argue with this guy >>738197914
>>738198095They even had more porn than CD.
>>738198165>OP: why did /v/ stop talking about this game?>(you): why is this game shilled so hard?Lmaoing at the retarded semantics.
>>738198228KEK True
>>738198257Game is soulless shit and you're fooling no one with your shilling. Try reddit.
If CD was exactly the same but made by ubisoft instead there wouldnt be a single positive post here about it.
>game is: buzzwords
>>738198376Correct. Shilling is ok when it's bugs doing it.
>>738198376If Ubisoft games weren't checklist simulators but instead had proper exploration with cool rewards I'd still play them.
>>738198507This dude played like 5 Assassin's Creed games and now he's shilling South Korea's copy of it a decade later. His shit taste barely evolved.
>>738198640Who is he?
>>738198716A shit eating retard, he is
>>738198165Spiderman was fun and coherent What do you want? i am gonna gonna bring up kcd, dishonored or skeiro to compare it slop like CD
>>738198750Is "he" in the room with us right now?
>>738198832Sekiro and Dishonored do indeed mog the fuck out of trash like Crimson Desert, Black Myth, Wukang, etc
does the game have a rogue class and it's actually viable? I want to play the thinnest, stinkiest low-life rogue imaginable
>>738198507New ones literally have no checklist modewhere you actually have to get there to mark the location
>>738199091you can sneak but stealth is pretty shittyyou can steal from peopleyou can use 2kat
>>738177660I have played the game and he's right.
>>738200284you haven't played for long, story shit is like 0% of the game
i never played the game and he's wrong
>>738200693>Un skippable dialogues and boring rides are 0% of this game
150hrs in the game, I don't understand how a team crafted this enormous world with detailed set dressing but totally forgot the part about making a good video game.Before I started playing, people online were defending the game from the initial divisive reaction on it's story by claiming the game was a sandbox; all well and good, I played sandbox MMOs, I played mount & blade, I have experience with several titles that are light on story but make it up by having engaging gameplay systems, in fact I prefer it most of the time, but Crimson Desert has no engaging gameplay systems at all. Everything is wrapped in a skinnerbox-like tedium with the occasional spectacle cutscene featured in its "guess we doing this now" main story to keep the normies pogfacing. I'd take the most disappointing sequel (Dragon's Dogma II) over this any day, because despite it's faults in comparison to it's predecessor it was still designed as a video game in the end.
>>738177660I like CD and he's right. The game is fantastic when you're just exploring and finding cool puzzles to solve, it's at it worst when it pretends to be Red Dead Redemption and forces you to do pointless walking and talking.
>>738188301The TRVKE that destroyed bugshills
>>738200880Uuuh bugshillsissies? Our response?
>>738169318>rewards exploration>puzzles, particularly the abyss ones are really well made and I love the physicality of them>Story is a really compelling blendHow can you just lie like this to people?
>>738201282No bro you're supposed to love every single time you're forced to take a fucking horse to accompany one of your greymane buddies to reach a place to do a minigame or discover a mechanic you probably already came across by yourself
>>738201470he obviously didn't play the game.
Game is good so far.But my only gripes with it so far is how shitty the GTA style character select is and the fact nearly all equipment is basically the same.The GTA character select is poorly implemented, making it to where there is no point to even using the other characters that basically function as different classes.The equipment in this game barely having any differences in stats was a letdown. It really cheapens any supposed uniques you can find as there will hardly be any difference.Especially when you can just extract the abyss upgrades from them and put them onto any other weapon or armor.Skyrim at least had proper uniques and much more noticeable differences in base stats and effects on equipment in the early to midgame with no alchemy, smithing and enchanting abuse.The closest thing to proper uniques in Crimson Desert are the equipment with durability and it's kuku counterparts.
>>738201798Calling the story anything but schizophrenic is insane but he's right about exploration and the puzzles. If BotW had had an open world of that quality it would've been a good game.
One question:What do people mean when they say CD is a sandbox?Minecraft and other survival games are considered sandboxes because there’s no clear objectiveit’s up to you whether you want to build, explore, or do something elseMGS5, Dishonored, and Hitman are sandboxes because they let you reach the same objective in different waysGTA, RDR2,DD and TW3 are not sandbox games just because, while they offer some gameplay variety and mini games
>>738202092I played the game for 45 hours before dropping it. I think I looked through most of first region by that time and I never found anything interesting when I was exploring. Yes the sights are beautiful but I am not playing a walking simulator. All the items being interchangeable killed this game for me.
>>738201969I think the problem is the game deceives people into thinking it's an RPG when it barely has any RPG elements, it's more like medieval GTA + BotW
>>738200876Didn't we mercilessly shit on MH Wilds for doing those ride shit too? This game shouldn't get a pass.
>>738202340CD isn't like those non-sandbox games you mentioned. MGS5 is though, are you dumb?
>>738202506Yeah that's kinda what I got from it just from the way your character moves alone.Game really does feel like medieval GTA.Which isn't bad.But I wish they leaned more into the RPG elements. Not sure what approach the devs will take to that if they do.Rebalancing stats?Adding exclusive unique effects?Although fixing the way the characters that can use were implemented should be top priority.It's fucking retarded how there is barely any point into using them because you can't even use them most of the time if you're doing the main quest.
>>738202785Yeah mgs 5 literally isthere's 7 ways to do any objective>set up trap>smoke>blow up the car>snipe>use support>create distraction>ghost>third person shooting
What is it exactly about this game that causes so much seethe? >runs on toasters>focus on gameplay and not story >bunch of whacky gookshit that you find in all gook gamesI thought this shit is golden to /v/ yet they're seething. Is it the lack of a Nintendo sticker or something? Or has it not been fully cracked yet? Genuinely confused. Literally the same shit this board jerked BotW over is in this game but on a whole different scale.>far far far better movement>unironically better and more varied puzzles>actual shit to find through exploration outside of korok seeds>fuckton of enemy types, even the base humanoid enemies are varied enough to mog the bokoblin shit>autistic level attention to detailThis game is literally just BotW but on crack. In fact, it's what ToTK should have been

>>738203108BotW is dogshit too. Bloated shit.
>>738203108not on switch and denuvo probably
>>738203108>>actual shit to find through exploration outside of korok seedsBOOOOOOOO Get new material
>>738203108Here is a succinct straight to the point reason: it copies everything from other games without understanding why they work and the result is average at best or just bad.
>>738203108>runs on toasterslooks like shit without RR which needs high end nvidia>focus on gameplay and not storybecause they couldn't make a story worth dog shit>far far far better movement>slow ass horse riding>no gliding for more than 2 fucking seconds and the normal way to land is by spamming the fucking button>climbing whole mountains full of exactly and absolutely nothing is a slow pain in the neck>having to rearrange the camera for a whole minute just to target an item adjacent to another one>can barely change equipment mid combat (but somehow you're allowed to fully heal instantly)>unironically better and more varied puzzlesyou mean like "align these pillars for the 20th time"?>actual shit to find through explorationOh wow it's a golden sword that is dogshit compared to whatever I can easily findOh it's an abyss artifactOh wow a spear that is also dogshit behind a waterfallOh look another abyss artifactOh look another piece of equipment that's also dogshit behind another waterfallOh it's another cave with the same layout behind another waterfall, how crazy is that wow, let me guess, dogshit equipment? yeahhh!>fuckton of enemy typesThat have basically no AI worth a shit so you're essentially killing the same 5 fucking variations of bandits>autistic level attention to detailYou actually have to be fucking kidding me. You can remove 95% of NPCs and loot around and you're gonna be left with the same exact level of detail. You cannot name 3 fucking NPCs in Hernand. Their lives literally don't matter, they don't move, they don't do shit. People actually reload the fucking game just to rob nobles because they're not relevant. The game doesn't care about you stealing hundreds of silver worth of gold if you just give copper to some peasant on the street. Everything is just purely gamified with no soul.
>>738200880>toxotransmosis poster>terrible postwhy is this such a common trope?
It kinda struck me how those threads are full of posts like >>738175171You have one random thing that no other game does. And it is done only for the sake of marketing posts like those. People read it and some will think it is awesome. And then those people will play the game, place the fish on the ground cook it once and never do it again because why would you do that. Not to mention it would actually blow your mind what kind of things you can do to an actual fish if you turn your computer off and get one IRL. And it is much less expensive than this scam of a game.
>>738205180"the devs knew the players would try this!"Yeah but apparently they forgot not to put 50 billion bonfires around even in fucking boss areas to even want to do this
>>738204145The result is better than all these games though.
Every single person shitting on CD should post their 3x3, can't wait to see their double standards being exposed.
Oh yeah. THAT happened.
>>738206254that's a disingenuous request because posters like you will just erm uhm actually the entire time meanwhile the truth of the matter, an objective undeniable fact, is that CD does nothing better than any other game it tried to ape/copy and is a poorly designed mess. The better post would be you, the staunch defender of CD to post YOUR 3x3, so maybe you can do some reflecting and realize that all the games on that 3x3 likely shit on CD in various ways.

>Exploration is le meaningful because you can find skill points or crafting materials Do crimson niggers really
>>738206571But it does? CD does a ton of thing better than other games, it has the best combat of any open world game (b-but low bar...point still stands. the feedback is great, the combo are fun, there are many different combinations, it's good, period)The draw distance is absolutely insane and give an unparalleled sence of scale for a game that barely rely on the ancestral trick of fog in the distance to trick the eye. Barely relying on fog and still delivering a game that look and is vast is no small feat. CD is also a return to form from older open ended games as it does very little handholding. Modern reditbabies will lose their shit over it but having a world that feels like it's not actively designed to please the player is absolutely priceless. Secrets hidden in completely obtuse ways or puzzles that all of a sudden obey no previous patterns are actually extremely refreshing and pleasant to encounter.>>738206861Name 5 games with "meaningful" exploration.abyss artifact are actually nice to find because they can be easily slotted onto other items and many of them provide qualitative visual changes by adding special effects to weapons with a visual feedback while most games would just let you find gear with a simple stat boostskill points are extremely valuable too as the skill tree is a lot better than in many other open world games as well as you can unlock a ton of interesting abilities that are noticeably distinct from each other, it's like a reverse BOTW with BOTW giving you everything at the start and CD having you work for it even if it can get you hard cucked at timesyou also have three characters that don't share the same kind of feedback at all, all of them needing skill points the skill progression feels a lot like classic adventure games that make you unlock shit like double jump, elemental powers, tool and expanded movesets
I already beat the game, easy goty, took me 133 in game days
>>738207171You made the same argument yet again >It's special because you can find skill points and materials in the cavesJust like ashes of war in ER or abilities in AC Valhalla or legendary gear with special abilities in odyssey
>>738207171>you also have three characters that don't share the same kind of feedback at all, all of them needing skill pointsWould be nice if you didn't get slammed with >Only Kliff can do thisfor a lot of the main shit
>>738189606keep crying
>>738207171>Modern reditbabies will lose their shit over it but having a world that feels like it's not actively designed to please the player is absolutely pricelessLooks like you guys recived a script from PA >Retarded convoluted systems and one off mechanic puzzles are actually old school cool
>>738192638that's fucking sick
>>738207582Haven't played an AC in years but ER's ashes of war aren't bad, the issue is that they're few and far between. ER scattered its good rewards too much and ashes of war are still not as flexible as artifacts.And ER doesn't have anything tied to abilities when exploring. You're saying AC does but most likely AC doesn't have an artifact/ash of war equivalent, then? CD offers both.>>738207682>Would be nice if you didn't get slammed with>Only Kliff can do this>for a lot of the main shitAren't they fixing that? Damiane is now able to solve puzzle I believe, mods also circumvent that. I agree it's an issue but on its way to be solved.>>738207772Yes they are, I hate when I feel like the game was designed for me, I can't get immersed in a world where secrets aren't secret and some ancestral puzzles that nobody solved before you aren't outright obtuses at time.If CD fails somewhere it's through its main quest and all the californian walk & talk section that are an absolute fucking bore to sit through, it's where the game stops being fantasy Just Cause 2 and starts shitting the bed by taking itself seriously, I wish the main quest didn't exist past chapter 4
>>738208175I said AC has these abilities And skill points just another way to do exp And literally every open world gives you exp for exploring
>>738209369Anon but it's not a wittle cube with an abyss nexus behind a glowy block puzzle.
