Toasted

@idonotexistelol or are you just looking for any reason to defend the game against statements that were never made and quoting posts and claiming their stupid? Claiming their hating on the game for explaining how they needed right angle to get arrow to light, your human their stupid got it SMH

I am absolutely not seeing the "game doesn't hold your hand at all" aspect in crimson desert. There's literally markers for every quest I've done so far. This is not a bad thing but good lord these journalists are even stupider than we thought. It semi- hand holds

@idonotexistelol @malttex2 @lowmiser @mean_mystic So your human and can make mistakes and straight up lie and say maybe you heard it maybe not but if players struggle there stupid? The person who posted the tweet said it was just angle not that they didnt understand how or what to do and even said they love the game an enjoying

@malttex2 @lowmiser @mean_mystic Like goddamn I'm human man maybe I misheard and read something that wasn't accurate which lead me to believe something that wasn't exactly true. It's that simple

@AndThenISaid4 @Arron_TK Or they played passed the 2 hour window and have to justify the fact they own it an better start to enjoy it, because 50% say they enjoyed the first 8 hours other 50% say it takes 8 hours and player gave up to soon. Never seen cope this hard kool-aid chugged they'll justify it

@Arron_TK Sounds like a lot like some Starfield cope to me. Nah the game just sucks.

I know the whole “after 8 hours it gets better” thing in crimson desert sounds ridiculous but it’s legit accurate. Once you’ve started exploring properly, upgrading your equipment and gaining new skills/abilities, it really does become a more fun and enjoyable experience.

@mcdizzle17 I would pay 100$ to have my feed where i could scroll down an not see back to back crimson desert posts 1 after another, hate post-praise post-hate post-praise post oh look 15 posts in a row all crimson desert. Had 0 interest before release no opinion on it at all now cd fatigue

Interested in Crimson Desert, but not enough for pay over 100 bucks Canadian for it.

@NatorMVP @RighteousM7853 @dailyhubranx Yet steam expects players to form opinion in 2 hrs for refund if it sucks for 8 hrs thats not good. alot of players use that window you can see reviews show its common for players to decide in under 2 otherwise you spend 8 hours an lose refund option better hope it "gets better"

@RighteousM7853 @dailyhubranx In a 200 hour game that’s a tiny percentage. It’s like saying the first 15 minutes suck in an 8 hour game. And to me it didn’t suck. It’s slow and you can’t do as much, but if you unlock your abilities and push the story it’s not so bad.

They were right... the first 8h suck... big time! and ... you just gotta push through... it actually does get better #CrimsonDesert

@Eveo88 This new thing of intentionally leaving name of the game out just gonna say it i hate it lol about as much as I hate clickbait. Thanks Algorithms and engagement farmers 😮‍💨

I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH ✨🪷

@mussellkaleb @HappyAries59925 @kelskiYT Isn't calling it hate same thing? I have no interest in this game so im unbiased but seems if you dont praise an love it your called a hater and shamed for an opinion. So much so anyway even saying its just not for them or it didnt hit, they get railed on by cd diehard fans.

@HappyAries59925 @kelskiYT Highly subjective take but you do you.

Ok I’m genuinely having tons of fun with Crimson Desert, and yet I feel I’ve barely scratched the surface of what this game got in store I don’t mind slower burns. I think KCD2 also starts incredibly slow. Lots of that early game you’re literally just transporting sacks one by one lmao, lots of mundane, simple quests, but I loved that game anyways Regardless, with CD I’ve already had plenty of funny, cool, and surprising moments in my first 5 hours. I think this game is WAYYY over hated IMO Also it’s not nearly as confusing as some people are making it out to be. No clue how people genuinely got stuck on the earlier puzzles lmao. Every mechanic is explained in detail, especially when it's first introduced The game's not perfect, but I can see the sauce. Actually looking forward to playing more

@GiusCaminiti As a player there's nothing worse the seeing developers cave and make changes to please some players over adding adjustable settings so players can choose. Really never understood that, its pleases the unhappy players and forces change on happy players when it only needed slider

Player feedback is one of the most valuable things you can have as an indie gamedev, but it is also one of the hardest things to interpret. How and when do you know whether you should listen to it and when you should not? For a long time now, one of the main complaints about my game has been the difficulty. I have adjusted it a lot over the past year, and it can probably still be adjusted further. Still, my vision for the game, and the design behind many of its systems, is for it to be challenging. Now I have reached the hard part: some players complain that it is too difficult, others say it is too easy, and even in posts where people ask me to make it easier, there are many others asking me not to change it because they like the current difficulty and feel it is part of what makes the game stand out in the genre. So the real challenge is... where do you go from here? It is definitely part of the job as a developer, but it is not always easy to know when to say “the game is fine like this” and ignore the few negative reviews and comments that are hard to deal with. So yes, player feedback is incredibly valuable, but having judgment, knowing how to interpret it, and deciding how to act on it is just as important!

@Jarikkistudio @GobletFlightTTV Is there pass out mechanic at 2am?

@GobletFlightTTV build a Demon farm, explore dungeons with Demons and Magic, and I’m also designing NPC relationships a bit different from the usual way.☺️

🌸 It's not Stardew Valley. 😈 It's not Pokopia. ✨ It's not Fields of Mistria. But if my indie game reminds you of them… I'm probably doing something right!

@VRisingGame Cohh carnage should be one of the choices for the vote. 🧛‍♂️ v-rising was one of best early access experiences I've had, so much so its never felt early access to me. 🖤💜💙

Vampires! How did you discover us? 🧛‍♂️

@RealFrankEaston @SlanderedOne What happens when you delete a save file an wipe all the pixels entire existence 🤔 genuinely curious? How a video game has people so emotional they feel shame for pixels on a screen. It should be studied 🧐

@SlanderedOne Honestly same, I don't kill them unless they are actively attacking me in which case I don't really have a choice so while the guilt is still there it's lessened.

I really dislike it when games force you to kill animals, especially when humans are forcing them to attack. Hearing dogs whimper as I strike them or the final howl of a wolf is just not comforting. The behavior demonstrated here is straight up PSYCHOTIC.

@KappaBits Oh 🤗 now thats interesting, I love the sound of that thank you 😊 couldnt find on steam but I know I had it wishlisted at some point so will grab when its back on steam 🥰

@Mythic_Toast No, but there are penalties, such as being unable to build, higher stamina drain at night, and enemies dealing more damage.

@CantinaBand22 @kelskiYT I wasnt even interested in the game and my feed was taken over, i didnt comment like or engage and it didnt matter, my feed is 9/10 crimson desert i just want to block it from even showing up after today no hate i just dont care if its good or bad. I want my feed back lol

@kelskiYT I clicked on one Crimson Desert video of him picking up and petting a cat. Now every other post is a Crimson Desert cat video.

My timeline is alternating between Crimson Desert either being absolutely amazing or the most shallow dogshit ever

@kelskiYT I have no interest in the game and my feed is nothing but crimson desert lol like ok I get it its popping for good and bad reasons but already tired and Im not even interested in the game and dont care if its good or bad, my feed has been taken over 🤣

@PeacefulDaysRPG Congratulations I never seen this before, added to wishlist look forward to trying soon 🥰

Peaceful Days is now 35% OFF during the Steam Spring Sale! 🌸 A little milestone I’d love to share: since launching in Early Access back in 2020, the game has sold over 9,000 copies. It’s my very first game, and while I made plenty of mistakes along the way, I’m truly proud to have brought it to a full release. If you’re looking for a cozy farming sim with simple mechanics, something you can just sit back, relax, and unwind with. Peaceful Days might be exactly what you need. Wishing you a relaxing weekend 💛

@f4celess_entity @beautyskillz What you find enjoyable isnt always what others find enjoyable lol what you find fun is fun to you not everyone else, the fact this even needs to be explained.... enjoy hard mode stop policing fun and enjoyment lol I like what I like youll never force me to change that 🤪

@beautyskillz how do you enjoy the game though when it’s easy asf? part of what makes games fun is mastering them and getting better. you’re never gonna get better at a game by playing on easy mode

GAMING HOT TAKE: playing games on easy mode is perfectly fine. Play the way that makes the experience fun for you. Games are meant to be enjoyed, not turned into a second job

@rraechuhl @thewinterizzy @ConcernedApe At first I thought you created your own coloring book as die hard fan lol if you dont mind me asking where do you buy this? I would love to grab one. Recently started buying coloring books Mandela type ones but they are like $30 I would probably buy multiple of these 🥰

@thewinterizzy @ConcernedApe love it!! i’ll probably get that one after i finish this one haha

my stardew coloring book is the biggest joy in my life rn ngl

@rraechuhl @ConcernedApe Love this 😍

@CoffeeBeansDev No mans sky was hated on launch and ripped apart for years they stuck with it and turned it around, imagine if they said on day 1 we failed and gave up.... early access as you can see in other comments some had no idea it came out, or avoid ea releases, or still at work lol SMH

I hate to admit this but I launched my first video game and it actually FAILED. And I want to be honest with you, and with myself about the reality of it 🧵
