@ZoieNolan4 @NextGenPlayer Actually, even controller users are completely flabbergasted how bad the controls are. Controller makes things more manageable, but it's still ass. Like launch Witcher 3 bad.

@NextGenPlayer It's because the complex controls are more manageable with a controller. They're super annoying on M/K.

Crimson Desert is getting high user reviews on PS5 - 4.44/5 stars (717 reviews) It’s Mixed on Steam at 55% with 1,441 reviews

@JustMeMyself_95 @SolidMali @ReforgeGaming I'm good for now. My backlog is stupid currently. I'll probably get it for $30-35 during Black Friday sales. By then they should have added a handful of patches, hopefully to fix the issues with the controls that my entire feed is complaining about right now lol.

@CDUB901 @SolidMali @ReforgeGaming Well buddy gone be waiting a long time just play that one game I been playing a few hrs just exploring in the first region in the way reforge making sound is not as bad as he making it seem to be because I had no performance issues yet on the pro.

Crimson Desert on PS5 Pro. FPS is visibly very inconsistent in the first town. It was worse on the base PS5. Imagine this in a fortress or castle with 15-20 enemies to fight. Lots of NPCs just tanks performance. This is why they were selective and weird with console footage.

@JustMeMyself_95 @SolidMali @ReforgeGaming Probably not. Rumors were they pushed it back to 2028 or even 2029 because of the memory shortage. They don't want to launch a $1,000 console because they know that'd be the deathbed of early adoption and early adoption is key for a new generation.

@SolidMali @ReforgeGaming Yeah way next Christmas if it releases around that time 🤣✌🏾

@TaisonTV @BukemSlime29477 "I think for myself" and clearly showing your influenced by Grummz is a WIIIILD fuckin choice my guy. Holy fucking shit 😂😂

@BukemSlime29477 Pienso por mi mismo que esta agenda y este tipo de contenido politico en un juego es MIERDA, si tu crees que es bueno me parece perfecto, como si crees que follar con cabras esta bien, en algunos paises lo hacen

#CrimsonDesert Metascore de 78. Si eliminas las reviews negativas el MetaScore sube a 90. el Review bombing de algunos medios como IGN o Critical Hits por las siguientes causas: -"Protagonistas poco interesantes" Creo que si fuera una Mujer Afro y TRans tal vez seria mas interesante para ellos. -"historia no tiene valor" Que raro en Elden Ring tampoco importa la historia y opinaban diferente. -"El combate tiene muchos combos y muchos controles y se hace dificil" Claramente Skill Issue del periodista con poco tiempo para probarlo, en Elden Ring no tenian problemas xD. -"Misiones secundarias aburridas" En todos los RPGs hay muchas misiones secundarias aburridas o repetitivas, es lo que pasa en juegos con cientos de horas disponibles. Y luego todos coinciden en que es un gran juego a nivel detalle, libertad, mundo abierto y exploracion xDDD Esta misma gente dio un 9 a Dragon Age veilguard y mas puntuacion a Concord. Hoy salimos de dudas en Directo, recuerdo a todos que las reviews buenas, son las que ocurren en directo cuando lo jugamos y enseñamos todo los youtubers y streamers, y ahi podeis ver la realidad.

@Rmichael___ @BrokenGamezHDR_ @the_primuspilus It's easy to say "play it for yourself" but what if you do and you go "oh shit, the reviews were right, now I'm out $70"? That's where I was with Metroid Prime 4. I didn't want to believe the reviews, but fuck they were right. Still had a good time, but not $70 good.

@Rmichael___ @BrokenGamezHDR_ @the_primuspilus And I can agree with that for the most part, but at the end of the day, games are expensive. People have no choice but to turn to reviews to see how they want to spend their money. It's why reviews exist to begin with, especially since Demos barely exist anymore.

LMAO when you tried to call out the fact that this game just looked like a buncha structureless random activities people called you a hater and contrarian. All it took to convince yall was a Jetpack, An RKO, and big ass empty map. I been gaming long enough to know.

@TheCartelDel It's a good garbage though. A fun garbage.

DMC story is not ass. This is revisionist history. It's garbage. Know the difference.

@Rmichael___ @BrokenGamezHDR_ @the_primuspilus Aren't people doing the same the other way around too though? Calling all the journalists wrong (people who HAVE played it) and saying that no, the game is actually peak even though they haven't played it? Lol

@BrokenGamezHDR_ @the_primuspilus You calling Crimson Desert bad without playing it is like reviewing food you never tasted. At that point you’re not a critic, you’re just a loud spectator repeating what you heard about Crimson Desert.

@Tomor36 @LukeStephens @LegacyKillaHD And do you think they knew that going into the game from scratch with no help from guides and social media?

@CDUB901 @LukeStephens @LegacyKillaHD mimic tear carried = easy mode for journalist

Uhhh Is this going to be one of those games critics don't like it but users love it? These Crimson Desert review scores are not great so far... 🙃

@LukeStephens @LegacyKillaHD This statement doesn't make any sense. Those same journalist gave Elden Ring high praise and that game is exactly what you say they are against. Dude, they just don't lime the game as much as you want them to. It's going to be ok man.

@LegacyKillaHD I predicted after the preview that this is one that game journalists will loathe. There is zero hand holding and even at the preview event I witnessed several journalists from big outlets getting stuck in the tutorial puzzle for 45 plus minutes...

@DavidRavellJr @DVADigital323 And in 25-30 years from now.... I have no damn idea what the world even looks like at that point or if I'm going to care if I can't play Star Wars Outlaws on my Switch 2 lol.

@DavidRavellJr @DVADigital323 Yep. And considering that past Wii and 3DS purchases can still be downloaded today and Nintendo finally has continuity in their online shops (with S1 and S2 having the same eShop) I'm going to assume this won't be an issue for at least 25-30 years or so.

I find the key cart thing so stupid. Like these same people will game on PC and just download their games anyway

@GameOrDie007 Hates? It has a 78 on MC. How is that "hating"? Lol And no, not always. Games Media was 100% spot on with their Metroid Prime 4 criticism in December. I didn't want to believe it myself, but after playing it, yeah it was a pretty mediocre experience.

Remember, whatever Games Media hates, it's almost always universally awesome and based. BTW... games media and journalist HATE Crimson Desert.

@PNWConservative @joopsmate The only ones you are mocking are MAGA because they are the only ones dumb enough to fall for Ai slop though, lmao

@joopsmate AI SARCASM (I noted it’s AI) to mock the leftists freaks…. The same ones freaking out about it.

Oh FFS. You can’t make this sh*t up. Even the dogs are tired of these clowns. Don’t pretend to be a dog if you aren’t ready to go toe to toe with them.

@Critical_Scribe At a certain point, you're going to want that narrative pull to finish the main story. 20-40 hours main storys? Sure, whatever. But 120 hours?!

@Critical_Scribe While I agree that gameplay remains king... there is something to be said for having the pull to finish a 120 hour main story because it narratively pulls you to do so. 120 hours is a LOT and more than games like P5R which is 60% story.

This feels like a fair score. Controversially, even as a writer, I’m starting to think that we are weighing storytelling TOO much in objective scoring in video games. Unless your game is wholly about its narrative (Life is Strange, Dispatch, Firewatch, that sort of thing) then at most I will weigh the story as like 2 points out of the total 10 it can earn, if that makes any sense. Gameplay remains king in these evaluations, with performance and visuals coming in second. You can have an outstanding game with a poor story, but if your gameplay and performance suck, then most people aren’t gonna get through your story no matter how good it is. We also have to keep in mind the vision that the game was pushing for in these evaluations. How well something is hitting its goals matters a lot in objective evaluation. Given how little they talked about the story, I don’t think them telling some complex narrative was on the list. Would it have been nice? Definitely. Subjectively? Most of the time I place writing at the top, obviously. Most of my favorite games are absolutely 6/10 experiences objectively but have 10/10 narratives that keep me enthralled. In the case of Crimson Desert? I called it having a poor story the moment I saw it was made by a Korean dev. Some thought I was jumping the gun, but nah, I have enough experience with Korean writing in games (outside of their gachas, which are entirely different beasts for some reason >.>) to know what to expect. What I want out of it is a game that forces me to think and do crazy things, which I think I’ll get. I will of course reserve full judgement until I play it myself, but from the general discourse and reviews I’ve seen this feels close to what I’ll probably grade it objectively.

@JayViperTV I don't believe anyone called it slop? At least those who reviewed it. Giving a game a 6 or 7 doesn't make it slop, just that there are things it does well and things it doesn't for that specific reviewer.

People are trying to say THIS is slop?? Dude, Crimson Desert looks insane. This is exactly the type of world I want that is packed with exploration details.

@Andywarski @IGN Who did? The same reviewer? IGN doesn't review games... different reviewers review games for IGN.

@IGN You guys gave veilgaurd a 9. Your opinion doesn't matter.

More than 110 hours in, Crimson Desert is an ambitious RPG that has swung wildly from incredibly cool to gobsmackingly infuriating. Our review so far: bit.ly/4lEo3D6

@ax_angelo Here in America, you SHOULD be safe under the Good Samaritan Law.

Definitely don't be this guy Let nature take its course You could face jail time and lawsuits without getting her consent first

@khaliltooshort Reminds me of FFXIII. Played about 10 hours and then bowed out. Everyone said it got good at like 20 hours in and I was like naaaaaaah.

8 hours just to get into a game is kinda wild ngl 😭
