    Crimson Desert

    Also, I had a thought yesterday - In spite of some pop in (my biggest graphical complaint) and some muddy textures - this is truly open world. Wanna go into a house? No cutscene walk right in. Wanna go do a tower puzzle? Run up to the tower and do it. Even if you hated the gameplay (lol what a...

    Crimson Desert

    This game is 10x better than bdo imo. Feels similar but once you start unlocking sockets and stuff you feel like a god mowing down dozens of mobs in seconds. Boss fights actually become interesting later too, not to a From level, but interesting mechanics. Most of the early stuff feels very...

    Crimson Desert

    Yeah, it's very obvious to me this game was made by a team that really liked what they were making. Whether that is your cup of tea or not, this was a labor of love. I find the discussions around this game interesting, in that it's the first major title in a while where there is no gamergate bs...

    I don't know anybody who hates it, in fact my personal experience is the exact opposite. I'm sat at my desk wishing I was home so I could unlock fire imbuement... Been a long time, maybe CP2077 or ER that I have felt that way about a game. Honestly, I'm not sure how they made this game -...

    They’ve already fixed a few of my big gripes. This is a very cool world with deep interesting combat builds, great crafting, and unending exploration. I’m 50 hours in and starting chapter 7, spent this evening getting legendary horse and Frostmourne! Horse is blood red, looks awesome. Need to...

    Crimson Desert

    The breadth of content and volume is frankly unbelievable. In just the first town you unlock you open up quest after quest after quest but they only open if you do some unnamed, unmarkered quest or event and it feels neverending. I thought I was headed to the next region after 26 hours… nope, go...

    Fucking lol, thought I'd hit my first game breaking bug. Couldn't run, couldn't double jump, was barely walking.... realized I had a fucking kiwi bird I grabbed in my hand.....

    Working through the 4/5th abyss sky puzzles, enjoying that more than I thought I would based on initial preview videos. Some interesting mechanics, though falling mid puzzle is annoying. I'd recommend doing 3 and 4 soon as it gets you really close to the eastern side of the next map for easy...

    Fully get all the complaints especially around controls. Currently my biggest gripe is tap to sprint on horse, just let me double tap on… with a map so big it’s killing my fingers. One thing they nailed was exploration and meaningful loot though. Found gloves that auto lock pick, and a pirate...

    The game takes you back there eventually, and yeah that's super useful for some of those retarded ass bosses

    Lol I tackled one of the bounty targets near a group of guards, knocked em all over and they proceeded to pwn me. Whoops.

    About 6.5 hours in now... so many of the reviews I watched (even the very positive ones) said the first few hours sucked and it picks up a ton. Wtf? I'm having a great time already and am already mostly used to controls. Still a bit of jank, but there is an obscene amount of shit to do in just...

    Crimson Desert

    This is like an old school single player game with modern (very modern) graphics, and outdated controls. Also have urge to stay up all night to keep discovering stuff, but am old.

    Fucking lol, I just beat the shit out of a nun, hogtied her, threw her on my horse, accidentally jumped off a cliff and killed her ass. FFS, that's a half bounty

    Looks unreal, what a great engine they've created. A bit of pop in, and wish you could rebind controller, but looks great. I've just been running around killing shit looking to lvl up stamina.

    What did you just read?

    Blood Meridian is a book I have a hard time recommending, but one I feel made me a better, more observant reader. One of the most bizarre, great, dogshit books I’ve ever read. Years after reading it, I finally “got” the ending with the kid and the girl. First read, I’d stupidly assumed the kid...

    Crimson Desert

    I've been pretty luke-warm about this game, but the exploration and sheer amount of stuff in game is highly compelling to me. Just seems like it needed more time (ha) to take it from "very good, lots of great concepts, some pretty glaring issues" to "one of the most compelling single player open...

    Crimson Desert

    From what I’ve seen, it’s not really a gitgud situation, it’s more like “farm a few hours and come back”. I don’t see a Malenia or Radahn here, more mmo gear score updates before beating. Why that is bothersome is it seems many bosses are locked behind huge puzzles and cutscenes which you have...

    Crimson Desert

    Basically what I assumed, some great exploration hampered by some shit puzzles, wonky over complicated controls and huge seemingly random difficulty spikes. Holding out for some fixes and updates

    Crimson Desert

    Combat: Combat in Crimson Desert is outstanding. I would not have waded through so many of the campaign's more frustrating sticking points if it wasn't for the fact that going into battle is pure fun. I played the entire game with a sword and a shield, which are Kliff's bread and butter. He has...
