    Crimson Desert

    This game is intriguing. Looks like a janky BotW meets Witcher with extra exploration and less story. Assuming a few patches will smooth out bugs and controls and I’ll dive in. I’m too addicted to Arc Raiders right now anyways to try and take on a massive single player open world rpg.

    Edit: I’m an idiot and can’t read. I kept checking the in game settings menu not the main menu. Found it. Thanks

    Crimson Desert

    If exploration is fun and a key high point of the game, I might give it a shot. Why do the bushes and trees always look like it’s a hurricane though? That’s got to be distracting with them blowing all directions like crazy all the time.

    Where was the soft cap toggle? I finished the game a few days ago and never did find it in the settings. edit: game was good. Enjoyed it a lot especially act 1 when I was weak. I got super OP without even really upgrading my armor very much and didn’t go hunting for the optimal armor setup...

    Marathon - Bungie Extraction Shooter

    I really want this to succeed. If just for the sake of the next single player fps Destiny type Bungie game. Saturday morning you’d think quite a few would be playing on steam maybe? Nope. 54k 33rd place. For comparison AR is at 165k. Hopefully it picks up pace as the day goes on or maybe there...

    Marathon - Bungie Extraction Shooter

    I’m not buying it but I enjoyed the server slam. I got 23 hours into it. If I had paid $40 for that experience I wouldn’t be all that upset. I’d honestly rather do that than spend $70 on a 10 hour RE9 play through. will the game end up being an AR or HD2 type success story? No, but I think it...

    That’s actually a really nice patch. Any nerfs appear to be mostly optional with original items being retained while the new update versions being added to your inventory. You can also toggle the new stat softcaps. I wasn’t going to download it fearing it would gut my build, but now that it’s...

    Marathon - Bungie Extraction Shooter

    One big UI problem example is some items have the exact same icon and symbols but when you mouse over them the pop text explains very different things they do or different stats. Is that how it is in Arc Raiders too, and that’s why you don’t think the UI is that bad?

    Marathon - Bungie Extraction Shooter

    What map were you on? Different maps have different mob densities and max crew limits. Perimeter (beginner) and perimeter are super low/low respectively. not that I disagree with you at all, it is super empty overall. I tend to run solo que so I like it better being sparse but still it’s pretty...

    Marathon - Bungie Extraction Shooter

    Where are the stupid tool carts? I know I’ve seen them before on Perimeter, but I’ve done 6 runs in a row and can’t find one to progress this beginner contract.

    Marathon - Bungie Extraction Shooter

    Not sure if it's been posted here, but you can help with the terrible sluggish controls a bit by tweaking the settings. FoV 105, look sensitivity 5, radial and axial dead zones 0.2. Not perfect, but it feels a lot better to me and was pretty comfortable to settle into after Destiny controls...

    Marathon - Bungie Extraction Shooter

    Do shells ever level up and get better/new abilities or increased stats? I’ve yet to find any shells specific loot, but I’d assume that’s how your character evolves and until then you can play any shell that fits your playstyle interchangeably?

    Marathon - Bungie Extraction Shooter

    Seriously? How stupid. The sound is so good, but if I can’t pinpoint real players what’s the point? edit: and is it just me or is the ammo economy wack? Maybe I’m just used to Destiny but I feel like I run out of ammo so fast even when I only kill a handful of bots. My backpack is already too...

    Marathon - Bungie Extraction Shooter

    Never played arc raiders so can’t really compare them, but just put in 3+ hours on Marathon. Solo que normal shells, haven’t tried rook yet. Only ever saw 2 runners in all my matches. One ignored me (my first match after tutorial so I was too scared to try and shoot him), the other killed me...

    tAinted gRail: fAll oF aValon

    I’m turning off game updates. I’m enjoying the game a ton right now as is. I don’t want my mage nerfed. Maybe I’ll change my mind once I get super OP, but I’m taking my sweet time with this one so far and am 38 hours in and still in act 1.
