>Forgotten General can survive a crit from the Axe of the Apocalypse
So we know for sure the breakpoints for attack speed are 1, 6, and 11? Nothing beyond that matters?
>>562888184shouldn't we replace some of this information by nowlike we really don't need any of those youtube videos anymore, it would be much better to put links to databases and/or puzzle guides
>walking around in the mountains >stumble upon the REAL whitehorn>in the middle of the 3rd phase the monkey from ch5 appears >he helps you beat the piss out of the other one then fucks offgodDAMN
>>562888443the only 'proof" I saw for that was a single screenshotted shitter post in the last threadcompared to a 20minute video visually showing the calcs and results for all the other stuff like crit being better than atk of 22, defense levels, etc
They really should've just trashed the main story and let you make a custom character. Damiane and Oongka are useless, and Kliff has the personality of a rock.
>>562888564They're all missing and incomplete and broken. There are legitimately no good ones yet. Going to youtube to find some 50 view rando is far more effective as of yet. And having those videos in still helps curious people get on board. 4 million isn't even enough for this game to break even. Their game development budget was reportedly $133m, not even including the game engine which probably took another $100 million R&D over almost 10 years. Then there was the major marketing campaign which is usually just as much as the game development budget itself. They'll likely need 7 million copies sold, assuming each sold at full price (highly unlikely) before a single cent of profit is secured.
>give oldKliff a fresh cut after his harrowing ordeal>20 hours later want to change it up and be a hobo again>shaggy beard and hair are not an option at the barberWhen's the fucking patch?
>attack goblin bandit camp with Damiane>lose>game doesn't cut to a rape sceneShit game.
post cool shit NOW
>>562891062>literal star of davidMaybe Jaffe was right holy shit
>>562891062>>562891218>finally get a game with some friendly gobs>theyre all jewsare there at least some qt goblin gals?
>gather 50 creepy crawlies>centipedes, frogs, flies, cockroaches, etc>release them all inside a bank>the interior is absolutely writhing and swarming with shit and everywhere you look there's something skittering on the floor>sleep one night>the pests are goneoh well, didn't expect them to stay really
>>562891581Who would even notice a few more insectoid parasites in a bank
>>562888912i loved that so much. thought i was about to get my ass beat then he just starts helping
>>562889675>custom character with a decentralized "main story"could it be done? would it be kino?
>>562891964Maybe the banker and the vermin swarm just became homies. Now all the pests hang around under his pillow and blankets.
>>562892150Feel like they could've leaned into games like Mount n Blade or Battle Brothers for a sort of sandbox merc sim if they wanted to just make a scattershot of quests/factions/zones.
WHERE THE FUCK IS THE FLAMEWARD BLUEPRINT
>>562892404just wear the shadowfaggot cloak, or the kuku fireplate if you need a bunch of fire res for a specific fight
>>562892370Stoneshard is a fun example of how to make a game where the story matters while giving you freedom to play as different characters. It used to let you make a completely custom character but for some reason they changed it so that you have a bunch of premade dudes.
>>562892574>Stoneshardhey looks cool>2020>still early acccessnigga
>>562892510It's the desert Ancient and his arena pushes the needle up to lethal temperature. Even slapping on three lvl3 frostwards and the Hernand cloak I couldn't get frost resistance to cover lethal cold.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mAdwKWT4F0cool af, i tried some of these myself on the dummy and if it was possible to do these combos in mob swarms it would be so fun
>>562893110yeah that sucks, and they removed the custom character creation from the early access because of "balance reasons"who the fuck balances a game before it's even feature-complete?Especially a sandboxy singleplayer game?
>>562893140kuku frost armor is +10toss on a bear cloak to cap your ice res at 15 and become immune to the debuffs
>defeat 10 one-eyed jackals while wearing a blackbear helmetI already beat the game though?? The Jackals are fucking gone.
>>562893481>kill 10 banner pike wielders in 30 minutes in demenissyeah good luck doing that after the bastier dudes are gone kek
>>562893481Shouldn't have done things in the incorrect order, buddy :^)
>>562891062which game is this? kingdom come 2?
>>562893481>>562893583>>562893584>look at the cube>if it's not something I can do in 10 seconds I ignore itfeels good
>>562893807But now it's taking up one slot in your bag until you finish it
>>562893916purple items don't take up slots....
>>562893916they don't take slots
What the fuck
>>562893995>>562894116look at you slot professionals, maybe you should slot some broads on ur dicks so you woulnt be such nerdy dorks lol
>>562894265>ESL retard has a meltdown over his inability to count AND readamazing
>>562894394jokes my dude, ever heard of such a thing?
>>562894598who said I wasn't joking? :^)
>>562894265but I wanna slot you on it
>>562891581this is why everyone must apologize to toddloading screens are the only way for true persistence. pearl abyss gave up on that for a seamless world and perfect interiors everywhere that require no loading screens
I just got the orc guy, do I have to play as him now for a little while?
>catch a hedgehog>Kliff carries it in his hand and you can either carry it there or release it>catch a baby hedgehog>it goes into your inventory so you can butcher ityo wtf
>>562894856You can play as him as much as you want, if you wanna go back to Kliff ASAP just do the story quest, you fight a boss right away and switch back to Kliff afterward.
>>562894856once hes upgraded hes better than kliff power wise. his kit isn't nearly as big, but what he has is pretty busted
>>562888912Monkey from chapter 5? I just reached 7 and I don't remember a monkey
Hmm...
>>562895445sniff
>>562895241The ogre/troll/monkey/whatever that you fight at the banquet.
Just found a dagger with some attack speed innately.Isn't speed completely useless on a dagger, since you cannot actually attack anything with it?
>>562895445when pantsu mod
>>562893583I still have that one too. rip 100% looks like I'm restarting.
>>562894964>>562895142This boss is wrecking me orc man does no damage, do I really gotta spent a shit ton of silver unlocking slots for his stuff and abyss upgrades?
>>562896337I beat him by food spam because I am bad but ive heard the spin attack wrecks him
>>562896465>I beat him by food spamthis is the intended mechanic of boss fights btw
>>562896337https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dylFcD894Ug
>>562896770replace food with generic health potion and it's standard Korean rpg design
>>562896465>>562896852I beat him third try, I upgraded slash, food spammed, then after I would do slash on him I would spam the spinning move.
>>562895898there are super-class enemies that you can jump on and stab weakpoints with the dagger
>>562896852ongbal my beloved
>1 hour walking and climbing for those plate gauntlets that makes you climb faster>find the cave>third world electricity fluctuates and turns off my console.>re-start game>get sent to a local camp no far from the cave but still have to climb shit mountain>find cave and open the chest with gauntlets and find bonus sword or spear, I dunno, couldn't check because electricity got cut again.>one hour later power is back>go back to game and check inventory, plate gauntlets are still there>Fuck yeah! time for adven->electricity fluctuates again and turns of my console againI HATE it here, fuck! I don't even want to play again today.
>>562897212buy a ups nigga
TSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
chat how do I unlock more
>>562897414>it's a "bounty is forty million miles away from where you need to bring them and they won't shut the fuck up" episodeBonus points for the goblin that was desperate to find the legendary white horse ranting about it constantly while I transported him on the legendary white horse.
>>562897630This is occasionally gated by the story but it's usually because you need to upgrade the camp, and unless you've been checking your journal, autistically combing through the dispatch missions looking out for anything new, or know to look for the tiny little upgrade icon next to the camp on the map you'd never know because the game doesn't tell you so.
>>562897212I'm sorry thirdie bro, hopefully your country gets its shit together (it won't).
FYI if you get a request from a Greymane that you've sent on a mission and don't wanna recall them to do the request you can just go to wherever you sent them and do the request while they're on the job.
>>562897689>catch this guy right next to the bounty turn in guys in varnia>it wants me to take him all the fuck way back 5k m in another directionimmediately dropped and untied him.
>>562898169take him to the closest jail cell bro
>>562898169can't you just kill them and get like half the bounty? at least you completed it, money is no longer something important in the game anyways
>>562897689>>562898169honestly the bounties are pretty weird, most of them are just obvious criminals or crazy people but around midway through the game you start getting bounties for weirdly morally gray shit like a slave who killed his master and escaped or a guy who frees and takes care of chained up dogs who spends the entire ride back weeping over no one being around to feed them. i kinda got the impression you were supposed to be able to let them go but it just didn't get implemented in time.
>>562898541Bounties need to be more interesting. I want more thrilling chases through a busy city. I want ones that can employ smoke bombs on you or other stuff. I want ones that can actually fight back and be somewhat of a threat. I want ones that can run up stairs, through homes, and leap out windows. I want ones where you can set up a trap for them.
>>562899141There's one in Pailune that is apparently developing bombs and threatens to blow you to smithereens... after you've already captured him. I agree, some more mechanical depth or the ability to let the ones you feel shouldn't be punished go at the expense of your reward would've been nice.
>chapter 8>have barely gone into the eastern half of the map>game apparently ends with chapter 12So are these last few chapters long as fuck or what? Should I be exploring more?
>>562899050the rabbit mask is pretty nice to have for yourself if you want to get someone's trust to 100, it increases the trust gains you get
>>562899564with each chapter you open a load of side quests, are you literally ignoring everything?
A fucking character creator modhttps://www.nexusmods.com/crimsondesert/mods/837?tab=descriptiondidn't try it yet so dunno how it works and how good it is
>>562899770Nope, I've been doing loads of them. I've got about forty Greymanes, I've got all the witches on the western half of the map and I've done all of their sanctuaries, including the ones in the southeast where all the robots are. The only sidequests that have wanted me to go further north and east is the one where you need to track down the shais, and that struck me as one that was supposed to take a while anyway.
any cold weather gear for damiane?
>>562899869>play as a sexo women>kliffs voice going "Yes."...
straight up found another copy of damiane's greatsword in pailune region
>>562900693There's a voice changer mod linked in the requirements dropdown so you will have a female voice.That being said, I haven't unlocked the barber yet and the mod says that you can "create" your character there.I installed the mod and Kliff's body changed to some generic civilian woman, but he has his own hands and head still. Looks pretty tranny man
>>562893583That one is trivial just attack the palace guards at the bridge area near the abyss nexus.
>>562896337If crippled Ludwig is wrecking you, you are being clearly being carried by clear soup.
>>562898169You can turn him in at Varnia's prison. Don't blindly follow map markers.
the troons really are committed to playing as a trannyanything to erase playing as a white man in 2026i get the feel these efforts are EU funded
>>562901691A tale as old as time, a repressed homosexual accusing others of being trannies.
>tax man finally catches up to me>ordered to pay 50 silver>pay>get reward statue worth 100 silverHow in debt is Hernand? Their tax guys are kind of retarded.
>>562901909>tranny defending his AGP fetish modskeep on rocking sis! #black lives matter
>>562902037>make a custom female character to match your taste in women>looking at the custom character somehow makes me want to be a woman according to self-insert autists on the internetI guess I wanted to be a fucking Subaru Impreza as a kid because I wanted to drive it in Colin Mcrae rally game
>>562894219everything in kuku crafting is literally just a cash shop item
>>562901405Not really fair to blame people for blindly following map markers when the game itself implies in the bounty notice that they can only be turned in at the constabulary that issued the notice. These are different nations with different laws, why would someone wanted in Pailune be arrested by law enforcement in the Crimson Desert? Even fucking Skyrim did this right over a decade ago.
>>562898387you need to take the body if you kill them
elves whenwhen elves
erm.....
Why is this game so addicting? Even after getting through the main story I want to play to do little objectives every day.
>>562903417OOOOOOOOUUUUUUUGHHHH
Anyone else's Blix bounty fucked? I jumped down and killed everyone and now he never shows up alive or desd, and his friends' corpses are always stacked on the nearby teleporter.
>>562903714he spawns at like 1pm
>>562903341i wonder if they're gonna make elves all female again, or add in the male ones. hopefully the former and also keep their racial passive for thigh jiggle physics
the controls in this game are super weird sometimes, and not just because of the delay or the convoluted combinations.I made a macro for my mouse thumb button that toggles the sprint key at certain intervals to make horse sprinting a toggleable function.If I click the macro on while stationary with a horse, the horse won't accelerate to a gallop unless I manually press the sprint button on my keyboard. Even though the mouse software is pressing the sprint button at 270ms intervals until toggled off.I cannot wrap my head around it, why does the horse need a sprint command even though it's receiving them all the time with the macro?
>>562903778Not for me. He never reappears no matter the time of day and his friends' bodies just keep stacking on the teleporter
>>562903714I had to go back at certain time of day like between 8am and 1pm or something. First time it was just a few random enemies there. When I came back at the right time he was there with a different set of guys. I accidentally killed him trying to fight his buddies in that narrow area.
>the best shield in the game is the wooden one at startugh...
>>562904283it's not the best in the game if it's ugly
>>562904452this desu
I really tried to play as Damiane but my god she is not fun. I wanted to like her but her lack of verticality makes exploring with her a chore. Not to mention she can't do all the puzzles. Her and Oongka feel like last minute afterthoughts shoved into Kliff's game.
Thanks to the anon who suggested gardening kuku pot and standing in a blob of Palmer leaves. This really didn’t take much time at all and I don’t care about gold bar save scumming.
My pa's gone and called me baby at last!
How do I unlock the last quest for the Hernand church? That's got to be the end of this region, right?

Most streamers are either finished the game or nearly done so I would enjoy this game being culturally revelant as much as you can there's probably a few weeks left

>>562911201Who gives a shit about what streamers are playing? They play whatever the flavor of the day is and move on. Gamers play whatever has the best gameplay whether it's new or old.
>>562911935clearly not

It’s honestly everything I wanted Witcher 3 to be. I’m not a story guy and just like exploration and side quests. I just need a lord of the rings based version of this
I kitted Kliff out in the garb of his people and I am sticking with it because it cost a ton of skill points
>>562913340kek the dog
bros this sanctum is filtering me... i cant find the other piece
>>562913249Same. I get bored watching cutscenes that go on too long. I want to be in control of where I go, how fast I get there, and what I do next. Games like RDR2, Witcher, and Kojima games since the PS3 era just lock you into unskippable cutscenes forever and don't let you do what you want when you want to. They are anti-games. The cinematic movie-like era of games was a disaster for gameplay. CD is fixing that mistake.
>Marius: Man I'm so glad everyone is back and working, our old life is coming back together!>Kliff: I see.Did they really have no idea on how he should respond to statements like this? It feels like I'm playing Arx Fatalis sometimes.
>>562913923Yeah I can’t stand interactive movies. The only cinematic Sony game I like is last of us. The cut scenes aren’t terrible and quick time events are minimal
Finally got rokade, I can now play the game

>halberds do not count towards spear challenges even though they use the spear skillsetbravo

Unpopular opinion but I wear whatever I like and don't care about minmax
>checks crimson desert on twitch>all the streams are qt girlswhat about this game hits with girls so well? i thought they like story games
Overall the plot is decent, but the way it was told was a bit bad due to pacing and quest design.I hope they release some multimedia stuff that details kliffs relationships with some of the big players, like stefan. A long strip would be peak
>>562916457Chad shit
>>562916457you are dead to me
It feels like the other two playable characters' move sets should've been stuff Kliff could've specced in, or maybe they could just be summoned for boss fights. I'm almost 60 hours in and feel like I just gotta spam heavy attacks to win. Sword and shield feels a bit more versatile but two handed sword is just spam like a retard.
reminder (OP?)>100 def is 50% less damage taken, beyond 100 it has accelerated dimishing returns>full cloth armor (no accessories/shield) is ~40% less damage taken>full leather (same) is ~49% less damage taken>full plate (same) is ~52% less damage taken>enemies have between 20 (15% dr) and 1000 (90% dr) armor>different attacks have different multipliers which your ATK stat is calculated against, for example a light attack is 63% and a heavy attack is 100%>a critical strike deals double damage>the base crit rate is 5%>each point of crit rate is 2.5% additive>15/15 crit puts you at 42.5% chance>past 22 ATK, crit is more valuable to stack>it's not currently known whether different weapons or elements have different base crit or multipliers>necklace/bodyarmor "crit" showing as double value on your stat sheet is a visual bug>>562916457you don't lose much by doing so, see above
The map puzzles are cool but absolutely not even remotely within the realm of being worth doingIf theres ever a Crimson Desert 2 they need to find better shit as puzzle rewards
>>562917389Ideally I would like if you could have them along all the time like a Dragon's Dogma party. I just like the idea of adventurin' with the lads.
>make all equipment basically the same stats so exploration is unrewardingor>implement a transmog system so you can make unique items feel uniqueWhy devs? Why?
>>562909683You need to clear the sanctum of mortification via the witches for the blueprint and then its craftable with some materials like a desert pack dropped from bandits and a power core, so its likely more towards the latter half of the game but I didn’t farm any silver until now so its nice and zero effort.
>>562918559just treat "getting a new transmog skin" as the reward for exploring, retard>>562918597any pack works as the base for kukus

>>562919462Based Marni's IQ test.
>>562919779I know but the controls are bullshit
Shame you can't do some synergy with Blackstar in the air and you on the ground.
>>562919779To be more specific than the other anon, the lip just before that top part frequently just refuses to let you up any further while climbing, and if you land on top you can't crouch because press L3 will cling instead which brings you right back to the same problem again, and you have to do this in seconds or he gets up again. If getting past that top lip were reliable it would mostly be fine
>>562920643If the thing you want to stab is in front of you you can also do a thrust attack with a non-dagger weapon.

Well I was wrong about all churches requiring 500k to max out. Pic related is a million bucks to the church in Delesyia.
>>562923902>>562924042nevermind im fucking retarded and just equipped the completely wrong item
>>562919462Focus shot the undercarriage and 1 shot its dome when it gets exposed.
>>562917971You get like 6 pieces of armor from each one since it reveals a bunch of hidden locations. Every single hidden waterfall I've discovered is from a memory fragment. Or if you like money I got one that revealed like six gold mines. It's not an instant reward but it's still a good one.
>found a delysia prison key in the longleaf zoneinteresting, it was also marked purple as a quest item. im also surprised the ent dudes from the shai village questline aren't in this region, that's where they spawned in bdo
>>562915950I felt silly hunting stuff like crocs for large bones when I realized you can 1 shot some birds instead.
>>562916136Is the gate of truth unfinished content? I haven't seen a way to open it. >>562917412I hope they add some end game enemies to actually fight and use these stats on.
game desperately needs abyss core loadouts, tired of extracting and embedding every time I wanna change my drip
>>562924984>Is the gate of truth unfinished content?there's a boss fight
>>562925070Yeah but that's not even inside it.
>>562923774I solved it by moving a single stone by accident. I didn’t even know why I solved it until someone here mentioned it.
>clicks on notification to learn more>leads to nothingok, thanks
>>562925296Same. I did that for a quest too because something was under one of stones lmao. Just moved it and "puzzle" solved.
>>562916559it's easy and it looks pretty, obviously
>>562918597wait...packs are crafting materials? i sold all the mining packs i found...
>choices matter
>>562918559finding sexy armor is rewardingyoure retarded if you think the reverse is any different. if you can make any item look like any other item, then there is no point for items to exist at all. make everything a spiritual absorption power. armor doesnt even need to exist. just walk to a closet and pick whatever look you want and make the power system absorbing some spirit into your body and get stats that way
do u think they fix the balloon this week
>>562926602They better
Is there a usage for the abyss cells that are inside the bismuth looking walls
>>562926602its useless, you cant move them around, it just goes straight up and thats it. it cant even get to abyss level
the dried fish at delesyia docks are not owned. you can take as many as you like. dozens of shitty fishs all up for grabs. I've switched to an all fish diet
>>562926823I don't care it's kino
I can use creamapi to get the pre order and deluxe armor, right?
>>562917412any testing done on this? i have two on my single handed sword and it *feels* like it's doing a lot more damage.
>>562926223>play my first game when I first meet the boy in Hernand>get the 3 wins in a row challenge in my first three games>play the game for some 120 hours more>never ONCE win againthat boy is a menace
I was doing some abyss and a few hours later I went onto my food wheel and saw I got all the elements except wind without even knowing it .

>starts taming a legendary horse while Damiane is tagging along>it bounces around and kicks her in the face>she goes "shieeeet"this game
>>562914261Man what wild button combination does that I can't figure it out
>>562918836This is the 3rd attack speed test I've seen and it's completely different to the others>Two levels gets you 21% faster attacks and only 35% at 15>Actually 1 6 and 11 are the levels that do anything >Actually each point counts a little So what the fuck does attack speed do
>>562930787
>>562931008Did all of them test with every single weapon type? I think it might be different for each.
Finally gets a freaking bridge for the house.
Is the quick swap skill the only fast way to swap weapons? I'm in chapter 2 and dont have it unlocked yet. Am I stuck with the radial menu for now?
>do witch's quest to clear sanctums>first three are easy>fourth has a boss that one shots mewasn't really expecting that
>>562930787it's in the menu if you look at horse skills
>>562931270Now we need paths
>>562931320you can still press Z to swap, like awakening in bdo. the skill just makes it flow at the end of a combo
>>562931872I'm using controller
brother....
>>562880646>Only western SJWs and streamerbrained zoomers will be offended by videogame nudityThe Idea that SJWs are offended by nudity, sexuality, or sexy characters is a lie, anon. Wokies love horny. They're all annoyingly kinky. Look at them playing Baldurs Gate 3, or Resident Evil with the dommy mommy. Or Cyberpunk. They play games that aren't just "lewd" but have full frontal genitalia on display. And they love it. The lie stems from the fact, that a certain subgroup of gamers, want female characters to just be sexdoll-like characters, who have no personality, no nothing but are only there to appeal to them sexually. That is what the SJWs/Wokies hate. But because that subgroup can't say: "We don't want real female characters, we want walking tits without personality that we can coom to!" they pretend that the wokies argument is that the wokies hate sexy female characters. While the wokies are playing cyberpunk, making their character as sexy as they can, and then fuck everything that wants to fuck them. Or drool over Yennefer and Triss. Don't fall for culture war bullshit anon. Come game with us. Grab a controller or a mouse, and kill some bandits with us. Stop listening to retards telling you lies to get you angry and watch their youtube videos. Just enjoy the game, man. Wait for the next patch and hope that annoying bug you hate got fixed. It's all good.
Speaking of patch: Any Ideas when the next patchs gonna be? I still have that bounty quest bug that I'd like to see fixed.
>>562931008>So what the fuck does attack speed doI think it might affect the speed of attacks
>chapter 11>actually going fine storywise for once>follows logically from the previous couple of chapters>the threat is apparent, there's almost a character involved, the sequence of events to combat that threat are clear and logical>white crow literally swoops in in for a bit to bullshit some shit but it's not TOO bad... I guess>okay, that's fine, it gives me a dragon so that's all good I guess even if it's a deus ex machina>but just before the (bad) final boss of the chapter, "H.A.L.L." implies a plot arc, of Kliff rejecting machine immortality or something, that literally didn't happenI guess they just couldn't keep the dial at 'mediocre' for a bit, had to veer immediately straight back into nonsensical
>>562933065Every time I do a main story chapter I'm disappointed, lmao. For the longest time I didn't know if i was just being a brainlet, or if they just kept introducing shit out of nowhere. Why am I suddenly in this region caring about a secret organization? Okay I tricked my way in and now the leader's like: "You're cool I guess", instantly makes me his comrade, and gives me a very important sword with a lot of meaning to him, despite knowing me for all of 5 minutes after I lied my way in? Why the fuck is the organization even secret? Who are you hiding from? Who are all the NPCs I've met in the last 5 chapters and why are they all my friends? Why am I invited to this royal seeming meating where for some reason a dude brings a giant upside down bear monster? WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE??? WHO THE FUCK IS LUDVIK AND WHY DOES EVERYONE IN MY GROUP TAKE HIM SO PERSONAL??I'm so fucking lost bro.
>>562933595I fucking wrote "meating" clearly I had dinner on my mind.
slaving away my manes
>>562933912This is what Clear Soup does to a mofo
>>562936459all the homies eat vegetable porridge now
???? fuck this retarded shit man
>>562936813why though? that's less health than clear soup, and you can get a shitton of meat from doing dispatches
>>562936914you'll understand when you are elemental turning slashing bosses
>>562936950i just meditate
This is a eerie
For me it's Clear Soup for topping up health.Chewy Rice Cakes/Vegetable Rice Cake for anything you need to take seriously.
I just got attacked by fucking mushrooms. Not the ones that glow and put you to sleep. A swarm of them. Infinitely multiplying. They jumped at me and kidnapped me. What the fuck.
>>562936304soulless, we should've been able to purchase slaves in the desert region to run our dispatches 24/7
>>562938007Just so long as you don't give them rights after. Fuckers get real uppity.
>>562932701They only want the lewd shit if it's gay or involves hot dudes.
>>562937784My autism doesn't allow me to use any food except jerky or other stuff that could reasonably function as a ration. I'm currently sitting on a stash of about 200 jerky and 50 fine jerky.
>Clear out Pailune as much as I can>Quests not popping but figure I just need to progress the story again>Teleport to the next region over>Suddenly a dozen Pailune quests
>>562938810You WILL enjoy dragging your bounty who never shuts up two thousand miles for ten silver coins.
>>562938125Not really. What they want is hot characters, that are not exploited for their hotness. Characters that are hot, because it fits with how they are written, not because "sex sells", ya know? That goes for both male and female. But I don't want to get too much into this culture war bullshit. I originally just noted how crimson desert happens to be pretty sexless and that stood out to me in a game that's fine with saying "cunt" a bunch and showing you gore-scenes.
>>562938967waiting for the mod that completes the quest by just killing them
>>562937985Are they the ones that have the green leaf symbol if you use sword shine? Can’t figure them out either.
>>562939918there's a pretty expansive mod on nexus that lets you fiddle with quest flags among other things while in-game so you could definitely gimmick the bounties as done as soon as you meet the target if you wanted to
>Find Drakesfall Castle>It's the most mazelike castle I've ever seen>Hurt a little inside knowing there's probably a treasure hidden SOMEWHERE in that messThe ultimate troll would be if there was nothing there at all
What can I gift to the weird cat furry dudes in the loli village? They don't seem to accept anything I have to offer
>>562941839did you try fish? or meats? they are big cats after all
>>562941941They don't take cooked meat at least, don't have any raw.
>>562941396Time to put on your pirate hat, matey.
The Shai village is dark as FUCK at night
>>562944001yeah that's how they get you
>>562944349I see.
What's everyone's favorite region or environment thus far? For me it's either the river valleys in southern Pailune or the mountain valleys around Scholastone. Being nestled between mountains is comfy.
>>562944001turn the lantern off and you'll see better
Finished the main story, and honestly might be the most disjointed, uninteresting story of a game I actually liked. You’re telling me they couldn’t find anyone in Korea capable of writing something better? Honestly the whole main story was a waste of resources from chapter 8 onwards. They’re lucky the sand box open world is fun, because otherwise this would be a 4/10.
>>562944001It's the lantern. here's a pic with lantern on:
>>5629272511% damage increase per counterdunno if it stacks though - others do so it just might which would be hilarious
>>562944001>>562949020And here it is without. The lantern brights up shit very close to you, but makes EVERYTHING ELSE very dark. It's kinda crazy.
>>562932276>high risk>complains about losinganon?
>>562948224Yeah thought so, currently getting filtered by tiger hood guy who I have no reason to be fighting in the first place. What chapter do you unlock the dragon? I’ll stop story progression then.
Titan was a weird fight. Also is Kliff a fucking secret god or something?
New player. How many chapters should I play before I have access to Kliff's entire kit? I want to just dick around and explore but wanna make sure I have all of his options available so I don't gimp myself. Just started Chapter 2 and got the glider.
>>562949204anon....high risk means that you'll lose a larger amount, not more often.based retard, you should buy some bitcoin
new wife
>>562950168once you get the glider you're pretty much ready you can get more height with aerial force palms which can be stacked up to 3x; level stamina so you can use the skill that lets you vault after axiom force and glide longer
fucking shit game
>>562951819You can cheese this by reflecting light on the statue's eyes, brainletkun.
>>562951973yes thats exactly what i did retard

>>562951819It's squid game you moron
did they even test the boss fights in this game? most of them move at supersonic speed meanwhile you're constantly fighting the control while also fighting the boss, also did I mention the fucking lock on sucks giant balls?
>>562950725I did, when it was ~1.50$ apiece :D thanks!"high risk" also implies it's more likely for things to go wrong, which is why you get a higher return when things DO work out, idiot>>562952545you can switch the camera mode by tapping down on the D-pad

>>562945604The rainforest is pretty cool, but the area around the city of Pailune is max comfy to me.
>>562952684>send Greymane on mission to guard Azerian Manor>he has a request, go take it from him on site>need to hop the fence to get to him>the NPC guards aggro, have to beat them up before I can do the request
>>562950168During chapter 4, you'll get a quest to go to a place called Scholastone. If you follow the intended path to get there, you'll unlock an exploration-related ability. A little while after that, during chapter 5, you'll get a story quest that leads to meeting a witch named Elowen. Once you do that and complete the quests she gives you, you'll be able to find other witches in the world.
>you know, sometimes it takes more courage to raise a shield than to wield a bladeThanks Balder, can't even remember the last time I heard such a bland platitude
If I put a Greater Lightning Restistance gear on my armor, does the durability go down when I take whatever damage or when I take Lightning damage?
>teleports out of your attacks and stunlocks youfuck this boss
How does one start the House Lanford quests in Calphade/Hernand? I'm nearly at Chapter 11 and even after wandering around and doing the more menial quests and bounties there I can't get them to pop.
>go to craft some shitty spear to get some spear challenges done>Ancient Wooden Pole>requires 7 iron ore and 3 copper ore to craft>a wooden pole
The "Bow Aimed at Fate" challlenges are driving me insane. Even using the tips people give, for whatever reason the tracker doesn't count more than one hit at a time. I've even done it from very high up , hit three separate enemies midair, and only one of them counted.
you may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like all without any abyss gears
>>562960987I'm not redoing my jewelry. Too much of a pain in the ass and I deep dick every boss anyways, including Ator.I DO wish I had known how stats worked like a week ago, though.
>>562960987Why do you look like you keep your boyfriend's pubes in your codpiece so he will always be with you
>>562961468gotta have them stats
>>562957740bro your turret?
>>562960620You're using the focus mode attack that let's you target multiple enemies, right? Force palm into the air, focus mode and mark the enemies, shoot and you should be good. There's a KuKu bird nest north of Hernand and east of the quarry. That's where I go for a lot of the challenges that requires you to do annoying shit, kill x enemies without getting hit, any archery challenge, etc. The birds die in one hit, just aggro a bunch and it's easy.
>>562962576Yup. I think it might just be bugged for me. 3 birds, 3 hits, 3 corpses, all midair. Only counted 1. Not the end of the world that I won't get the artifact but I hate having it sit there.
>want to explore>find cool new region>random mobs kick my ass>find a sanctuary>"ehe cant do that yet"man I love this game but sometimes exploring gives me those early 00s MMO vibes
>>562962898purples don't take bagspace. I have accepted that some of them are just AIDS and I'm not going to do them, like ride a horse across the world in 40 minutes
>>562897212Where the fuck do you even live that power fluctuations are that bad and that frequent?
every time I start my game up or die and respawn this fucking book i looted from the arboria castle place keeps appearing in my quick button, so I have to open it any time I press start. how do I make this retardation stop.
>>562963786>like ride a horse across the world in 40 minutesThat's an excellent one for building trust levels with a horse, though
>>562964008Put it in the chest. It's the only way to make it stop aside from submitting a bug report
>>562962898That sucks. At least the artifact for the challenge doesn't take up inventory space and there's no special reward for completing it. The only other thing I can think of is if you're using ammo other than basic arrows. Maybe it only counts the first kill with special arrows but not any after that. Or if its an upgraded bow with a bunch of gears on it? You could try the default bow or a basic one from a vendor. Oh well.
>>562964013I already rode across the world and my horse is already 5I'm not going to spend 30 minutes to get one skill point
>>562964201What about your companions' horses, or one of the other legendary horsesI know you haven't trust 5'd all of them
>running out of side content to do>advance story>reach chapter 8>the two handed sword i use is stuck with oongka for some reason and he is on an important mission so i cant retrieve itepic, simply epic

I can't believe gamers, specially chuds, are such closeted trannies that they couldn't wait to use mods to replsce the male protagonist with their female self insert.
>>562963786Yeah I've been finding cancerous ones recently. Can't be bothered to deal with most of them, and half of them aren't tracking for me for whatever reason.
>>562939843>off topic kneejerking below*"exploited" in this context means that normal men like it.*Veilguard doesn't' let you budge breasts beyond B cups but it will give you a mandatory unskippable HR meeting about being nonbinary. That is the end result of your retarded notion that characters are oppressed and need your finger wagging sensitivity.We've had over 10 years of your whining about Bayonetta, Soulcalibur, DOA, whatever the fuck else. We all know you're just a swarm of faggot hall monitors biting at normality. I don't know who you're trying to fool in the big 2026.>off topic kneejerking overThe game needs a persistent faction war mode or something. Anything to give your camp and the combat system purpose. You work to get all these moves and mechanics all for the sake of having nothing to use them on at the end. That's some fucktarded design that needs a remedy, preferably with a patch or at least with an expansion at some point.
>>562964761how many haybales does it take to craft a strawman this big

>>562952545lol of course nobody tested shit in the game
>>562967084No anon you will follow the dialogue that has several seconds of silence between lines and you will like it, the writers worked hard on this so it's rude to even think about skipping it
Is there a way to pass time quickly?
>>562967239Go into focus mode, it skips generic request dialogue
So explain to me, at the end, how does oogaboga save you? He also has abyss powers? Deus ex machina?
>>562968492just bad writing. at some point they probably had oongka be more fleshed out I imagine.

>>562965646>*"exploited" in this context means that normal men like it.*Again, not really. That's not what the SJW's and wokes care about. That's how the anti-SJW's have to warp and distort the SJW's argument, so that their fanbases can nod in agreement and call them retarded. It's in essence: A strawman. It's easier to attack than "Women shouldn't only exist for sexual pleasure">veilguard. Listen, Dragon Age has been lambasted for dumb fucking decisions since basically the second game. Stupid half baked characters have been mocked, Inquisition was a total clusterfuck. Now that the latest game is also shit, it's suddenly the wokes fault? That's a bit convenient. You know how you can tell that this is not something SJW's are actually craving? Because they're not actually playing it. They don't like that game either. They were willing to try it out, and the woke players said: "meh, it's not a good game". Not every bad game got bad because of some woke agenda.In general it needs areas that always have enemies. Or an option like: "sleep 3 days, but in turn some random camps get taken over again". I dunno. People have been complaining that they left some of the combat challenges undone until finishing most of the game and now they actively struggle to find enemy groups big enough to do some of them.
Look at this Pailunese beauty

>>562965646>The game needs a persistent faction war mode or something. Absolutely. >expansionGod I hope not. They said they want to patch of the base game first and I hope they stick with that. As it is there's basically zero point in going after all the cool recipes/researcher unlocks because you'll kill all the enemies on the map before you finish unlocking them. I even tried leaving an enemy castle at 10% to see if they recovered to fight them later and they didn't.
>map has a faction filter that makes it look like fucking Crusader Kings when you zoom out>none of them mean anything because they don't actually interact with each other like actual factionsDefinitely the biggest letdown for me, I thought I was gonna be leading a merc army, having to make friends and enemies and navigate complex political situations.

Holy fuck the Kuku Packs that just harvest shit for you automatically are amazing.
How much higher do the Breeze-Step Boots make you double jump? Worth it to keep them around as a utility item while you're exploring, at least?
Are there way less random puzzles outside Hernand or am I just shit at finding them?
>>562967872you can sleep but there's a cooldown on it so you can't spam itit feels like the required delay is something like 30min of realtime between rests I saw a mod the other day that removes this cooldown so you can spam rest if you want to for whatever reasonpersonally I would just rest then go out and explore some shit for a while then come back and rest again

>>562982209so far the changes have been mostly goodI don't give a fuck whether we get a character creator or notit doesn't affect me either way my point stands

>>562984071I know. He was really easy its just dogshit design.
>>562984745I agree but only him, the mecha worm, and every tracking boss were bad fights imo

How long is forced Damiane section? I have like 70 abyss artifacts but i dont know if id keep them or upgrade that bitch because apart from forced sections i wont play her.
>>562987430upgrade to lvl 4 max if you want, she gets new gear once the forced section is finished. I think it was 1 hour maybe
>>562987430>infiltrate place in demeniss>fight three dudes>go fight bossThat's it
>>562987773>>562987894So its short. Splendid. Thanks bros.
>>562988049It is, but just so you're aware, the boss fight is going to be a real pain if you don't at least give her a decent weapon and/or level up one of her damage skills

So, I can't go down?
>>562991581I didn't even know such a boss existed, I was just innocently exploring and then he or she or whatever it is spawned and started giving me a femdom stomping fetish session with no warning.
None of us have ever truly left 2016
>still no nude mods
>>562993035There's actually several but they're all a bit weird how they work or how they look

Did Pearl Abyss remove the rowboats or kayaks or whatever in some patch or something because I haven't seen a single one after the first patch hit
>>562970461you can really tell they swapped from mmo to sp halfway through development
>>562988145>>562987430spend a few artifacts on her weapon and light beam attack thingy, that'll carry the boss fight
That is a dinosaur, deadass

Would this game have been better if it remained an MMO?
>>562996570i have no idea how to do those. in fact i dont know anything in this game after 200h
>>562998253its just a lock like in the movies, you rotate the dial till you hear a distinct click then you rotate it the other way, repeat until it's open
>>562998235No, MMOs are dogshit.
>heard a rumor that blessing of nature stacks with other blessings, like earthgonna test this in a bitbig if true
>>562998662so what's the result
>>562998662What do you mean stack? The wording on Nature is ambiguous but it's a bonus to harvestable plants like Palmar or Ginseng, not everything you can "gather".
>>562998235new mmos have less staying power than single player games these days
>>562999396imagine how desperate or retarded or both the mmo devs of today must be for still believing that mmos are quick and easy moneymakers
i need a hint. found the rods but idk which way they face to point the lightning
>miss how hostile demeniss and pailune used to be>want to refight (most of) the bosses with new knowledgeAm I really about to start another playthrough after 200 hours?
>>563002564clockwise around the center to form a ring
>>563002748how do i infer that the lightning bolts should be going clockwise?
These long haired horses are incredibly beautiful
>>562998863>>562999347it does not stack unfortunatelythe most I ever got from a single node was 6 - 3 drops each doubledthat's the same as the max I have gotten with just the mining drops doubled value at 100%
>>563002958by watching the ring of light that goes around to each one in the right order, or by manually rotating the lever until the lightning goes to the next rod
>>563003006bro is straight out of that knight meme kek. red knight
>>563003343I don't have any other colors other than red and green, and I grew tired of the moss green velvet shade so I just decided fuck it, let's go all red and white-ish
>>563003259it's so blurry with the storm and rain going on, im doing this at nighttime and i can barely see two feet ahead of me
>>563003547yeah it makes it soulfvl
>>563003746not in a good way is what i mean, it's genuinely hard to see what im doing here
>>563002564There is one pretty far away at very edge of mini map. I couldnt fucking find it because its outside that radius mini map shows. As for lining up then you can see where they connect when lighting strikes and just line them up.
>>563003997i might have to come do this quest in the day, because i cannot see where im supposed to be aiming these lightning rods. yes, this one shoots lower, or higher, but in which direction should i point them to? can't see shit
>>563004480mark the rods on your map then you can see the direction in the minimap
>>563004480It doesnt matter since weather there is gay on purpose. You always wont be able to see shit its by design.
>replenishng arrows disappear from my inventory????

The shallow water tech in this game is so insanely good, I think it's hard to really appreciate it unless you pay attention to how it looks in other games.
How do I unlock more quests from the Pororinites?
research honestly sucks, it should've been able to be done at minute one of the game. locking the coolest stuff behind the robot place in chapter 11 was such an odd choice, by then the game is over and you only have a handful of pois to take over
CAN YOU NOT PULL THE FUCKING CORE OUT OF KUTUM?> WHAT THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO DO

>>562880334is anyone willing to confirm this
>>563010119Are there other kutums? I've found both the electric abyss one and the one in the mine easy to beat, and havent unlocked any element
>>563011709it was the one in the mine i couldn't kill, it literally wasn't letting me pull the core out
>>563011695Shes still there. Ive met her today and after I did some story mission that led into some side quest and some gay ass retarded dogshit mecha boss at same circus.
Looks extremely ridiculous when other neckbeards seem like north european bandits and Kliff is there in count Dracula cosplay
>>563010102 this game needs some kind of post-game endgame where shit respawns I'd prefer that to ng+ since they'd probably make you do all the story shit like building your camp and gathering your homies
How good is Relentless? Worth exchanging for a damage gear?
>>563012341YOu can always just wage war with the non-bandit factions if you just want to fight.At the rate the modders are progressing, I don't think it will take too long before someone publishes a mod that lets npcs attack each other. And when someone figures out how to make npc dudes do things, then it's pretty much a done deal
>>563012132nta but is that the demeniss circus? i havent seen her yet
>>563012132weird. i gifted her to 100 then followed her and tackled her by accident now i haven't seen that npc in literal real life weeks and i check regularly
>>563013531>pester a woman with unwanted gifts and attempted sexual assault>wtf bro why is she ghosting me??Reflect on your choices.
i think it's time to give up my starter horse just lost a race to some fucking jeet
>>563014081the horse races will pretty much always seem like jet fighters to you unless you spam horse stimulants constantly.So don't feel bad about losing, feel bad that you didn't begin the race with shenanigans in place

>>563014968They drop off of Fundamentalist goblins, go kill them near the Spire of Insight.
mcdonald's sprite got his ass
i want to mary poppins around on the propellor spear
I'm not anywhere near it myself, but for the endgame complainers, we could use a BBI style dungeon and maybe an Everfall-type community boss that keeps getting harder on each kill. Not sure if that type of content can even be in the plans as they moved to pokeV but it would be cool and give us something to stive for once the game is cleared. Repopulating forts are fine but something with a little pizzaz would be nice.
>elemental imbue abyssal gears work with the elemental skill and not just imbued attacksGood bye pirate hat, I am now wizard.

uh guys, my dudes are all stuck in dispatch when they're not even doing anything. how do I fix this?
When do I unlock researching things
>>563028940 (me)oh well looked around, looks like I gotta wait until the next patch. Luckily I have 37 dudes and I still will have enough to do camp upgrades. It would be genuinely game breaking if you got this early.
>>563012736i looked up a reddit post and its shit and inconsistent, you dont get a damage bonus until 20 stacks and its random when your attack gets boosted stillit works on your main weapons even slotted in armor(each gear stacks) but im just gonna stack spirit regen to spam more turning slash
>>5630127361% damage per stack
>>563017051What if they're all dead?
>>562996324I think am npc told me about those but I've never seen them in game. They make crocs look small.
>>562982285Go find willy wonkas potion factory.
100+hour anons what's your rating for the game? I'd say a 7.5/10. I'd bump that up to 8.5 or more if they add a real endgame that lets me actually fight more stuff.
>>563030610I'm at 175 hours and there's some things that annoy me to no end, but I count them more like preferences than actual flaws.The actual flaws are>menus are terrible to navigate, jumping back and forth and the game never remembers the previous view so you have to jump through hoops to even save your game>the lighting actually hurts my eyes if RR is not enabled and then it rapes my framerate instead of my eyes>most of the quests are tedious and SLOW>UI in general is awful, sending your geymanes to their death is surprisingly difficult apparentlyI wouldn't count these as too gamebreaking flaws
>>563028940I got this problem before but after a short while, they will walk back to camp and can be dispatched again.
>>563012736It's good if you can maintain stacks which requires not getting hit. Might be rewarding if you fancy that sort of playstyle.
>>563030610It was an 8 for me in the first 20-40 hours but after dropping 130 hours and finishing the main story its more like a 6 nowThere's a lot of moments in this game where i seriously question what the fuck were the devs onBut honestly there's no doubt the game will be an 8 or even a 9 when they spend more time patching and fixing all the stupid shit that other games already got it right
>thread lasting over 24 hoursIt's over. Game is dead.
don't miss this cool looking sword here bros
>>563036446oh ok thanks I'll just check every snowy area in the gamesee you in a month
Is it even worth trying to build reputation with strangers? I automatically talk to those who I walk past, but it seems like sometimes these nameless strangers seem to actually accumulate points, but sometimes even after talking to hundreds in the same area, its some new face with only 5 points. Should I only bother with vendors? Or anyone with a proper name? I don't really get it.
>>563036670lol, yeah the thing is usually unique items are marked on the minimap as white dot, but it's not the case here
>>563035629it's over....................
Wait, if I turn my Kuku pot into a backpack, where do my items go? The spear says it can still store stuff, but I can't access anything on the backpack.

>>563042796>fuck this fucking shit fuck fuckI feel like I say this at least twice an hour while playing yet I cannot stop
holy fucking fuck shit fuck the removing the spear from the dragon quest is so fucking frustrating holy fuck who the fuck made this shit
>>563042796This kind of situation can be annoying but the mask is a good idea to avoid doing crimes when you don't want to. Unlike in the TES games for instance
>>562963786>like ride a horse across the world in 40 minutesTakes only 20 minutes and it's fun.
>>563030610As it is right now a solid 8, with some improvements to some of the jank and soft lock bugs and weirder quest design decisions would be a 9. Some bosses make it feel like 6.5 other times, but probably cause I am a scrub.
>>5630306108they got the most important part (exploration) right

Did I missunderstand the visione? When I first got it, I was sure they explained that it shows things that have been recorded with it. But then throughout the story, it seems to kinda have this omnipotent "see things that have happened here" and then even later Caliburn pulls me out of it, like it's an invisibility cloak that lets me spy on a live conversation? The fuck is going on?
>>563029274Yeah that sounds pretty garbageMight swap it for parting gift for when I'm getting stunlocked

>>563048952The memory explaining its functions was specifically recorded by Marni but he doesn't say it can only view memories recorded for it, merely that it "captures and stores information from the world around it". Which implies that memories leave some kind of imprint on the world where they take place. The memories we see clearly aren't all being recorded so Marni's use of the word might be contextual. Like, he might be saying he's "recording" the memory but really he's just imprinting that specific memory onto that specific spot so whoever puts the Visione on is guaranteed to see it. Otherwise we don't really get any information on how to record memories.
>"so it's come to this...">no option to tie up, forced to punch>"alright I admit it, I killed my friend...">no option to tie up, forced to punch>"I was going for the black bear next to him...">no option to tie up, forced to punch>"You're scaring me..."
>>563050726Epilogue reveals that fake AI Marni created it and the spyware is a feature not a bug.
>>563050726Yeah I guess I read the "from the world around it" as "it records the stuff that is actually physically close to the device when it happens" not: "it draws any memory from the ether". Makes sense I guess.
>>563048952>>563050726>>563051778Isn't it basically tapping into the abyss's timey wimey powers in the same way that his teleporters are tapping into the abyss's teleportation powers? The notKorean witches talk about the time power stuff.Although that whole arc was clearly shaved all the way down to near nothing since there are allusions to shit that didn't even happen, just like so much of the story.
>>563051631>no option to set the bounty free at the expense of your rewardpretty fucked up to make some of them so morally ambiguous with no option to side with them
>>563052047I'm surprised there's no more depth/quest to some claiming innocence. Untie them and they'll run like ecery other criminal
>>563051986>The witchesGotta say: they took me by surprise, and broke my immersion a little bit. Because you got this world, that's clearly a fantasy word vaguely based on european medieval history, but also clearly not meant to be on europe or specifically any earth place. It's "generic western inspired fantasy world". But then these "eastern witches" come along and basically go: "Hello, we're asian, here's our shrine surrounded by bamboo, burn this asian talisman and hold this asian stick thing while you do it, don't forget your incense". It weirdly draws attention to how the world is created. Are they telling me, in this world asia exist, and is also to the east? Odd.
>>563052481bdo is as high fantasy as they come. it was never a grounded world to begin with, other than the fact that crimson desert seems to be missing a lot of races and monsters, but chose to kept marni's influence in
>>563052481>It weirdly draws attention to how the world is created. Are they telling me, in this world asia exist, and is also to the east? Odd.there's land of birds which is japan, and land of the morning light which is medieval korea. im pretty sure that expansion was funded by their government, or at least the national tourism department. coming from so many not-japans and chinas from gacha, it does feel fresh in a way, something familiar but also not too alien.
>>563052819If I had to take a guess, Kliff might belong around awakening Sorc? So far the most impressive feat I've seen him do is killing the god of lightning with his own spear (haven't beat the game). But maybe also "borrow strength" because of axiom/alustin who's a wizard here.
>>563047309you can't compare yourself to that guy, he's just that good
I'm not sure if this happened earlier in the game, but I'm doing Demeniss faction quests right now, and each time I fucking complete a quest step it untracks my quest. It's really fucking annoying. Also: Have I been dumb? But how come the people in Demeniss stop attacking me now? Has the entire region been freed because we defeated this one knight guy? In what I believe is a flashback? (because it ended with "back in the present" after)? I'm so fucking confused.
>>563052481Each chapter was gonna probably the seasonal expansions for the mmo, that's why it's so unconnected
>>563054413Yeah you freed. You are now allied with Demenis nobles and killed the inquisitor leader with Damiane, his band was the ones being hostile(although i still get attacked in some parts of the castle)
>>563054413were just just asleep when you talked to the lady in that mansion at the start of the demeniss arc? she explains the political situation
>>563054413>it untracks my quest
>Move camp to Pailune>Desire to play drops like a rock
>>563056081But I thought the knight guy I defeated was not the main problem. Just a henchy, The other dude seemed more important. >>563056223Fuck.
>>563056336What's so bad about this, exactly? I know the camp stuff is more spaced out, but I don't use most of it anyway. I only just started the Pailune restoration, should I not even bother?
Oh I completely forgot. Some threads ago some anon complained about bosses going out of bounds saying "i can't go there!" If you're still here anon: You can, and you should. Going outside the fighting arena is like going outside the ring in WWE. It's all good as long as you get back in before the ref counts you out. I've spend plenty of time outside the boundaries whailing on enemies. The timer is a resource.
You okay, cliff? you wanna help with this quest? Maybe? It doesn't have to be a honorable 1on1. You can hit him, I promise.

>>563057872Wait I don't remember this, is this from the red smoke cube quest?
WHATS THIS FUCKING FURTHER RESEARCH NEEDED???? FUCK YOU THIS FUCKING SHIT GAME, EVERY FUCKING TIME
>>563056647you have to walk three blocks to get to your chest
This is one of the most important key items in the game I suppose. It's basically essential to running your missions. So why is it, that it's locked behind a fairly late main story (Well, kinda locked the area is hostile but you can get the quest earlier, but I'm going by "when would the average player find this" here, not by "how fast can you speedrun to this"), and a boss, seemingly entirely unrelated to missions at all? This should be one of these greymane request tutorial missions. It's so wild, to have such a key item, so deep in bumfuck nowhere. (and apparently it is also bugged, supposed to unlock helpers from each region but only unlocks greymane helpers.)
>>563058525that bad huh? didn't they add a new teleporter in the latest patch?
>>563058774you have two teleporters now, one in the north west and south west. the chest is in the north east-ish

Why doesn't Kliff use his two hander in cutscene?
>>563059387non canon
>>563059387Sword and board is default, which is why you always have them equipped. I get it, he needs to have a dedicated weapon for cutscenes, but I just wish the game wouldn't forcibly switch me over to it sometimes. Really shouldn't be hard to remember which weapon I used last.
>>563059387>>563059626I'm just happy the recent patch changed it that if you go with a 2h in a cutscene, the first thing cliff does out of the cutscene is swap. Used to be you had to do it manually.
>>563059731>the first thing cliff does out of the cutscene is swapwon't work if you retry the boss fight tho>just git gudshut up
>You're welcome to return with more>The royal trading post is closed
>>563036751Depends.Vendors will usually unlock additional items in their shop when they hit 100 reputation.Random people out in the world will give you a gift at 100 reputation.Depending on the type of character it can be a different type of gift.For example the ogre scholars up in scholastone can gift you rubber or mercury or brimstone - all of which are endgame resources that are a pain to get "normally".Another example are "dye workers" which give you a random shade of dye (any type in the game apparently).There are most likely others that give specific types of gifts that nobody has bothered to track or farm yet.>>563058497bulk production is pointless when you can just slap on 2 gears and get infinite arrows of every type instead

>>563061024Well, yeah. Your trade goods are kept at camp, that's why you need to transport them via wagon in the first place. How else are they supposed to get from point A to point B?
>>563062657Oh it's a plant and not even at the spot the quest marks for you. Well played, korea.
>>563062745>Your trade goods are kept at campNo. I buy trade goods from the jews. It makes zero sense to teleport your wagon back.
>>563062745You should've been able to assign your goons to do the deliveries for you, that's bitchwork. Apparently BDO had the exact same thing EXCEPT you can have the cart move automatically so you're just idling.
>>563062976this shit HAS to be fixed, damn
Is it just me or the 2h cannon for Kliff ridiculous strong? It uses the moveset of spear but hits harder and comes with spammable unlimited ranged attack.
>>563063883Nothing compared to infinite explosive arrow bow.
saved this cutie from getting gang raped
>>563065083Now rape her.
>>563065189It would be against the greymane moral code. Unless a totally incorruptible local authority declares her to be an outlaw in which case her face shall be smashed to a pulp.
>>563062976have you tried actually driving one of those fuckhellwagons around? the controls are abysmal if you trusted random greymane idiots with one of them it would end up on fire inside a castle somewhere causing a major diplomatic incident
Love the game. I get immersed in the world and how alive it feels. Story doesn’t immerse me and that’s why I never cared for Witcher 3 (along with the combat). I like how the combat in crimson desert can be as complex as you want it to be. It also reminds me of the silly, slapstick combat of might and magic. When does the game open up with most abilities unlocked so I can safely free roam? I’m halfway through chapter 3
>>563065893chapter 4 gives you one more ability then you got most everything
>>563065824I did that intro quest for them and that was more than enough, lol.
Been checking the saddlers but they all just sell shit tier gear, where's the best gear for your horse? Not that I really need it but would be nice for completion's sake.
It's weird how I actually kind of dig the mystical spirit wuxia stuff when the witches aren't involved. The bit in the isles about traversing the terrain, hanging with monks, and mending statues was actually really chill.
I might be retarded but I think I missed how the fast travel works. Do I just stand in the blue circle to unlock the point as a fast travel or do I physically have to use it like Diablo 2?
>>563066343Stand on it until it activates(glows blue)
>>563066343M> double click a portal on the mapwalking on them just unlocks them for further useput some weight into it anon
anyone figure out pic rel? or is it just a reference to takeshi's castle?
>>563066573>kbmlol
>>563066181i went into some random castle and there was a crack in the wall and i explored the dungeon and inside a chest there was a recipe book for a whole military tack setnot at home but i can look up what it's called later
>>563066715i only found 2 of them but there are little puzzles there that give you key parts, and there's a big thing with the same logo as the little puzzles right in the middle of the rift. i imagine once you have all the keys you can activate it.there's also a waterfall with like 12 silver nodes there, very cool
>>563066181shit tier in terms of stats or fashion? the saddler in pailune sells the best horseshoe and also pretty good gear for the horse. the set is called berkei but you have to visit the contribution shop and max out his trust as well to get the barding
>>563067431Just the stats yeah. That's the barding I use too but I don't even have anything for most of the other slots since all I've seen are poor people pleb gear.>>563067162Cool beans.
I know the game defaults to sword and board for cutscenes, but in the case of the monk boss at Serpent Marsh I wish the devs actually took into account whether you beat him in fisticuffs or not. I stowed my weapon and fought him with my fists and was unsurprised but still sad it defaulted to weapons.
>>563067297nah that puzzle is completely separate to what i'm talking aboutpic relyou can't see past the doors and doors that lead externally have a platform that crumbles when you get near/stand on it
I'm afraid this is peak ludokino...
i think this is bugged
>>563068456SOVL
>>563068952Marni park is outside the city.
>crit from necks is actually doubled but only if you have another source of base critwhat is going on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcGOioZMaj8
>>563065893Start of Ch 5 after after you unlock 1st witch.
fuck this shit and yeah, skill issue ,,/,,
>>563069636so... if your weapon has crit on it, which it should anyway?that sounds more and more bugged and is gonna get fixed one way or the other
>>563071019You cant be serious anon.
>>563068067had my pirate hat on and it didnt glow while i was in those rooms. ill come back to it later. the only thing of note is that some lights turn back on when you go through a door and some drops lead to a small pocket.
>>563071298i just finally did iti was doing it wrongi moved the mouse instead of tapping controljust retard things bleh
>Suddenly hard crash>Restard, boot game back up>Literally all my saves but one are gone>shit myself>load back in>check saves again>The one save is now gone too
>>563071243yeah i'm hitting 14 crit just the neck and body armour but how real is that?
>>563071894shits crazy scaryps5 or steam?
>>563071894reminds me of a crazy save bug i had in elden ring where all my characters were deleved from the screen and when i loaded in they were past saves and each time i went back to the menu and loaded them again they got further and further back until it was a naked nameless default character spooky stuff
>>563071894Same happened to me on Xbox two times. Game ran fine but sound started to stutter and I couldnt quit the game through Xbox OS,had to turn off console. Then I got infinite loading screen on autosave. This happened twice but I also save manually often so I didnt lost much.
>>563072006PC, but looking it up it seems to be a semi-rare problem on every platform. Most common on PS5 from the looks of it.>>563072339I save like a fiend and rotate them constantly if slots are limited, so I think it's a combination of luck and that habit that saved that one, single save for me. As soon as I got back in I saved in every slot again just to be safe.
>>563071894>>563072324oh shit wait i remembered my game crashed earlier and i went to check just now and all i had left was this auto saveboys make a manual backup of your save RIGHT NOW
>>563072554Oh fuck from the looks of it I am in the same general area progress-wise. A little past that, but the same. I wonder if that matters at all.
>>563071019There are additional puzzles? Also mine doesn't rotate so can't follow online instructions
>>563069636>>563071243>>563071896fugg, those are some big changes from the last calcs>you get more benefit from crit instead of atk above 53 instead of above 22>crit caps out around 35% at 15, not 42.5%>armor does have diminishing DR returns, but the effect on "hits to kill" is still linear somehow>damage reduction is better for bosses, armor is better for swarms of open world enemies>double crit value from necklace "might" apply if you have another source of base crit, like the kuku flame armor
>>563072551>just to be safe.definitely do >>563072554 and make a backup it's in appdata/local/pearl abyss if you're on wangblows 10about 10-20mbs if you're worried about the size
>>563072754you gotta purify the sanctum first maybe?then use the light reflection like youre burning shitfigure it out from thereif you use kbm tap control, it way , way,. fucking easier.
>>563071019each block is one beep so let go as soon as it makes a sound and lights upyou don't need to do they whole area just tap for singles and let go for multiple when the last one lights up
>4 hours ingame time to finish the 4th expansion missionyippy time to sleepy a little>>563073485yeah i managed alreadythx anyways anon
I think I found a UFO, guys.

WHY IS THE CAMERA LOCKED LIKE THAT MAN WHEN THE FAGGOT FORGOTTEN GENERAL DOES THE FAGGOT SOLDIER CHARGED ATTACK, FUCK CHINKS AND FUCK THEIR GAME
>>563071894Happened to me once but then the saves came back (Steam)
>>563073732i found this but couldn't see how to get all the parts inside the cube and left
people who play this game with a controller are insane, aren't they
>>563075162One part is floating above in the air. I was about to leave too but I looked high up and it was there lol. I mean all this does is leads you to abyss part and thats it,no artifact.
>>563075579I am and I think it, combined with my fixation and autism which are eerily similar to the devs, has contributed to how much I enjoy the game.
>>563075579eh, it's pretty rough with a "baseline" controller, but nicer controllers with more buttons are perfectly fineI'm using a wolverine 8k pc for example, and the two extra shoulder buttons and 4 extra paddles are really nice - I've got the extra shoulders bound to left thumb and right thumb click, etc
>>563075789my grapple couldn't reach it from the ground
>>563076479You need to palm jump obviously and move it that way. When you move stuff your floating stamina decreases slower which is cool. I assume late game there are some puzzles where you float a lot with shit so thank god they did that.
>>563071894Sir, a second crash has hit the Crimson Desert. Gonna check those saves and hope they didn't all die again.
literally puzzle designed to waste your time, well done gooks
>>563077261it took me longer than it should have to get that one because the fucking statues spun at different rates depending on where you hit them with the bowabsolute cancer puzzle design
>>563077261A lot of them are. There are "puzzles" that require you to drain water by rotating analog stick or literally just raise something and thats it. Then there are these moving blocks puzzles for example where you need to use stab to move them which is super ass and even if you instantly know what you need to do it takes at least 10 minutes to move them unless you have insane amount of stamina.
>>563075579Yeah but i haven't touched a keybord since the early 2000 korean mmos. I wish i could just press a button to switch between exploring and combat controls
>>563075579I can’t MKB, don’t have good enough control over anything but thumbs and pointer finger, all my other fingers are useless niggers
>>563062976Pretty dumb that out of everything they copied from RDR2 in this game they didn't copy the horse auto-nav thing. Or letting you knock bounties out to keep them from yapping.
Alright, that's the third heavy crash in as many hours. Gonna try a full reinstall because I can't figure out what the problem might be. Who the fuck knows. Was mostly trouble-free until the most recent patch.
>>563068456the boot hat makes this look like one of those old gnomes illustrationslove this silly game
>>563075579I'm using a regular Xbox controller and it's been fine. Only real issue is using Snatch feels incredibly unintuitive, wish it were easier to weave into combat. I'd love to assign it to RB + A since I basically never use the spin attack.
>>563082112try deleting shader cache with DDU
>>563082069It's a shame. There doesn't seem to be a nonlethal option in the game that isn't scripted. Punching someone's lights out kills them outright.
>>563075579huh why? other than maybe axiom on L3 everything else is seamless with controller
>>563082459Seamlessly clunky
>>563043884thats the hallmark of a good game
>>563030610It's a single player game bro. Rating it less for not having an endgame when its not a live service designed to keep you playing forever makes no sense.
>>563082587It was never not gonna be clunky with this many possible inputs. They probably should've opted for stances or styles a la Nioh or DMC so there wasn't so much crossover, but it works well enough as is.
>>563043884>>563082623Unironically thiswe're so used to simple, repetitive "it just works!" mechanics (spoilers. they wont most of the time anyway)Crimson Desert reminds me of gacha games at time, with the latest "flavor of the month" mechanic added to the game out of nowhere, but its really charming in its own ways and most of them have neat interactions with each other and the game allows the player to learn stuff on their own, even if sometimes an extra tooltip would be appreciatedpic related, Sunday Service is a thing but no one mentions EVER in the game, its just there
>>563082775You're not wrong but at the same time that isn't really the game's problem. Open world games don't need live service elements to keep them playable in the postgame, they just need enemies to fight and stuff to do. There's a middle ground between live service slop and the game being largely devoid of any enemies to fight once you're done with the story.
>>563052819Is this a lore tierlist? Where did it come from?
>>563083338BG3 doesn't have an endgame loop. You just do another run and do things differently in a different order, do speed runs, do challenge runs. Use mods.
what dis
>>563084346>BG3 doesn't have an endgame loop.Yeah, and? BG3 is a completely different kind of game. There's way less downtime, way more build variety, and the nature of the story lends itself to multiple playthroughs. CD has none of that going for it. I can't say for sure because I'm not done with it but I feel like this game would actually be pretty miserable to replay from the start because you lose the intrigue of exploration and any mystery the story provides in the early hours, and because you're drastically kneecapped in terms of combat ability. But there also really isn't any build variety either because it all ends up blending together in the end unless you're gonna limit yourself to bows only or whatever. When there's a mod that lets you properly play through the entire game as Damiane or Oongka there might be a point, but until then I doubt many people are gonna be jumping right back in for another playthrough.
is there anything to do in this spooky crumbling castle in the rift?
Where the fuck do I get hundreds of pieces of iron ore for all these upgrades? Give me a proper wholesale vendor you korean bastards, I'm NOT going to mine and I'm NOT going to buy just a few pieces at a time from bum vendors.
>>563085456There's really no point in upgrading anything past +4 for 75% of the game anyway, your artifacts can be spent much better elsewhere.
>>563085723Well yeah, I'm in the last 25% now.
>>563084346holy shit, what a fucking midwit post
>>563085456you can buy iron ore 30 at a time from the camp every few days, that's the one resource that's actually common
>>563085863Then you should've been slowly accumulating iron throughout the dozens of hours you've been playing the game and this shouldn't be an issue. Otherwise just get it from your camp supplier.
>>563085723very wrong takesure that's fine for armor since you can spam food, but you will want your accessories and weapon(s) leveled as you continue through the main story quest for things to stay comfortable
>>563086164I got all the way up to chapter 8 without going past +4 on anything and didn't really have any problems.
>>563086130I did and went through it all already, I need to upgrade my 2H weapon, shield (because its stats still count when wielding a two-hander lul), chest, boots and helmet.
>>563085723>There's really no point in upgrading anything past +4
Where would I go to get those Kuru plate armors' base versions? Are they somewhere in the Abyss or in late-game Sanctums (which I've been putting off)? I don't need exact locations, just a hint will do.
>>563086737Off the top of my head the fire one is in a chest at an outpost in Demeniss, and the frost one is in a waterfall cave in Demeniss.
>>563086995Oh great, entirely random spots I won't ever find since I'm already done with Demeniss. Well fuck those chestpieces then.
>>563087227you can get the lightning one if you do some side quests in pailune
>>563087227>since I'm already done with DemenissEvidently not.
>>563085209I couldn't find anything there. Almost feels like cut content
whens the new patch coming out, I really want to fly my cloud cart
>>562888184Is therr a way to complete Ivar the runaway slave bounty without turning him in? Feeling dirty listening to him recount his abuse after beating him up and loading him on my horse...
I am missing two greymanes, is this bugged? I dont have any more quests, who am I missing can someone say?
>>563088316one is a robot that you can get from dispatch missions. the other is the guy at the ranch where you register or slaughter your animals. he is in the middle between those two
Do the different varieties of stone have ANY crafting/quest use at all, or is it just to dump into camp provisions? I have quite a few stacks in my inv.
Maaaan where's the patch? They used to be so good, updating so frequently and now for a week we had broken NPC helpers for missions, and that broken bounty quest I keep harping on about. PLEASE.
>>563077261>>563077731The worst ones by far are pic related. Literally just "run to these places, look at the wall, then come back and input what you saw" No thinking, no challenge, They might as well read: "Go across the map and get a number, come back and tell me the number". I did one of these and I'm not ashamed to google any of the other ones I'm finding. Fuck that.
>>563084346>>563085145BG3 is a story narrative driven game, it's a role playing games in the most traditional sense, combat is, theoretically, just an afterthought becuase the chore mechanic is>the player can react whatever they want to the story the games throws at themin CD theres no real story and THAT is the expedient for more gameplay and different mechanicsand those have and end eventually
>>563088245Pull him off horse, throw him at a tree a few times. Should fix that shit attitude.
how do i liberate this? i go there but theres no "mission" to take over it
>wagon mission with yannOH BOY HAVING A NIGHT TIME WITH RAIN MISSION WAS SO MUCH FUN THANK YOU GOOKS LET ME SUCK YOUR PEEPEE FOR THIS AMAZING ENDEVOR ,,/,,
smaller camps like this shouldn't be "clearable" in the sense that after you clear it once nothing spawns there ever again like it does. they should repopulate over night and get stronger mobs the longer they are left alone. having a miniboss tier enemy in the spawn pool would be nice too
>>563085145its a single player game, thats the ultimate point. just move on, its ok
>>563085975The biggest midwit is crying to make a single player game into an endless content farm. Play Path of Exile.
I'm so fucking sick of getting these "This Place hides a GOD TIER weapon!" shorts on youtube. It's never "god tier" not to mention that IT'S ALL IN THE FUCKING GEARS anyway. If it has the correct base attributes you can make a non-unique every day drop buy or craft weapon your god weapon. For fucks sake. At least when I got the Cyberpunk shorts about hidden shit it was: "There's a cool looking outfit hidden here" or "There's this unique weapon at this place". Not everything was fucking: "GET THE MOST OP GOD MONSTER ITEM IN THE ENTIRE GAME!" and then it's just another item that's not better or worse than anything else, jesus fuck.
>>563089853They're carefully designed that way because when you go there, they have meticulously placed so that you can find other things they intentionally placed there, or along the path to those places. Those that immediately look up the solution miss out on that.
>>563092946Youtube shows you those because you fell for the retarded clickbait to begin with, it's all your own fault.
>>563093014Last time I did one of those it send me along the side of a cliff, with fuck and all to discover the entire length of it. It was just mindless busywork.
good night fellow greytards i love you all
>>563092754>its a single player gameThat means very little when there are other single-player games with more replayability and longer, more interesting post-games. Raise your standards.
>>563092885actually agreed, you're both fucking midwits
>>563093053Listen. You watch a couple interesting non-click-baity crimson desert videos, and you get this shit in your shorts. Then you watch a short, because you wanna see where it goes, and of course only at the end you realize it's clickbait bullshit, and then you're in the hole, and now youtube thinks you like this, and these assholes keep making this garbage, and so you get spammed with bullshit clickbait.
>>563093014>>563093209This, that reasoning is horseshit.
