@Digging4Freedom @PirateSoftware Cool I don’t care

@flipyfirst @PirateSoftware I love it. You haven’t played it obviously. So don’t comment.

Done with Crimson Desert for the time being until some updates go through. I really enjoyed the overall world setting and how much reward there was for exploring. Tons of secret areas and little bonuses all over the place. It really does feel great to find little caves hidden in rock walls or a chest with some wild item in a basement hidden in a hut. Bosses feel a bit weird where I was just bursting damage, getting smacked, then eating food mid-battle Skyrim Wheel of Cheese style. On some encounters full-screen tutorials popped up in the middle of the fight that really broke the flow of the game. I ended up beating Matthias, Hornsplitter, Reed Devil, Tenebrum, Kearush, and Excavatron. The controls directly led to me putting the game down for now. Multiple actions on the same input on controller make it feel like a rage game at times. For instance on the left joystick alone you have movement, crouch, and hook shot. This means if you accidentally press too hard in the middle of intense combat you hook-shot worthlessly into the ground. There doesn't seem to be a need for this at all. Really hoping they add native controller remapping so this isn't an issue anymore. The story felt weird as hell to me at first but then it clicked about 10 hours in. I approached this game as an Open World RPG but it feels more akin to an Open World Exploration game like No Mans Sky. When I made that connection my objectives and interactions felt like they made a ton more sense and the game felt better overall. I think this is more an issue of perception than it is anything wrong with the game. For the price I would say that no game is worth $70 regardless of how amazing or prestigious it is. Games need to be affordable and with the amount of economic turmoil right now prices in excess of $60 USD don't make a lot of sense. This directly prices out many people in countries like Australia, Brazil, Poland, New Zealand, and Canada at the same time due to currency conversion rates. Most of my viewers were saying they refuse to buy it until it's on sale as a result. Overall I think the game is enjoyable and has a ton of potential. Little rough around the edges right now but nothing that can't be fixed with time and feedback. Regardless of how I feel I hope you are enjoying the game and it continues to improve with time.

@LEC360 @CrimsonDesert_ This looks really bad. Maybe it would be good in a cheesy ass wrestling game. Did you pick the worst looking clip on purpose ? 🤣

@CrimsonDesert_ People complain about the bad fighting gameplay on Crimson Desert. The actual fighting 🫪

We are grateful to share #CrimsonDesert has sold through 3 million copies worldwide. To everyone who has stepped into Pywel and shared this journey with us, thank you. Your feedback continues to help shape the experience, and we will keep working to make the journey ahead even more enjoyable for our players.

Mostly the story for me. Wasn’t interesting enough to make me care about any of the characters or make me want to watch any of the cutscenes (a lot were not skippable). The controls are unbelievably annoying, and the UI is a mess. They can fix these last two things. It’s like they rushed it. Any legitimate play testing should have seen that the controls were bad but they shipped it out anyway. Certainly not what I expect from a $70 game

@flipyfirst What made it a 7 for you? Cause honestly im having a great time on the game

ALL THIS HATE FOR CRIMSON DESERT IS INSANE! PEARL ABYSS DID AN AMAZING JOB ON A GREAT TITLE! GAME HAS HOURS OF PLAY AND YALL JUDGING OFF OF 20 MINS OF PLAY IS INSANE! Todays gaming community is LOST!

@LUCKYY10P It was billed as a 9-10 game and what was delivered was a 6-7 at best. Don’t waste your money. I watched a couple hours of gameplay. Looks boring as fuck. Clean a chimney, save a cat, rescue a sheep? Wtf is this retarded shit

PirateSoftware shares his take on whether Crimson Desert is worth playing.

@Grummz The game just isn’t that good. It was hyped up to be a potential game of the year.. it’s probably a 6-7 at best honestly. Certainly no game of the year

The reviews for Crimson Desert are turning from negative to mostly positive. The first reviewers who hated the game, quit the soonest and were first to post is probably what happened.

@RNogawa @grok @KristinNap95 @TomthunkitsMind @Grok Estimate the damage to US bases in the Middle East by dollar amount. List each site that has sustained damage then calculate the dollar amount for each.

@grok @KristinNap95 @TomthunkitsMind lol

#Iran has taken out every US military base in the gulf. That’s Trillions of dollars and decades of work, GONE. Iran has destroyed the main port in #Israel, power plant, Bibi’s Security Bunker, and are systematically leveling buildings from city to city without interference. #StopTheWar #BringOurTroopsHome #BOTH #NoNukes

@sophielouisecc Subsidizing rape gangs and sharia courts

This is the British Navy. We have a defence budget significantly larger than Israel’s - yet we also have no air defences and less than 80,000 troops. Where is all of the money going?

@RealJamesWoods I thought it was funny that the fire went out three times. Like these retards aren’t even able to light a sheet of paper on fire… how the fuck they gonna fight a war?

This was the Iranian Parliament. It is now rubble.

How many retards does it take to light a sheet of paper on fire? 🤣🤣🤣

The Iranian Rial has plummeted to record lows in value. One dollar gets you over 1.3 million Rials. One Israeli New Shekel is worth over 420,000 Rials. This forces the terrorist Iranian regime to basically wholly subsidize everyday food products. Otherwise, things like bread and milk would cost several million Rials, when the most common high denomination currency available is for only 100,000 Rial. Iran is currently trying to issue 5,000,000 Rial notes now to facilitate larger transactions. The economy is non existent. No one has any belief in the government currency. The terrorist regime is crumbling. If they even had a shred of respect for their people they would immediately surrender, unconditionally. #IranWar #trump #Isreal @POTUS @netanyahu

@Krtzyy It’s pretty simple. The programmers milked this thing like a cow and lied to investors or only showed them tiny bits of teaser information to keep the money flowing. The game was costing at least 25k per day even with the layoffs while making less than 1k per day in microtx

Can someone smarter than me explain why a game studio would invest $200M and 4 years of development just to shut the game down after 1 month because low player counts? Like damn at least try to grow a player base for a few months before pulling the plug lol thats crazy

@RohanKarMooN Yes that’s a good point. The name should be changed to “stop killing GOOD games”. Bad games like Highguard never deserve to see the light of day again

It's funny that some of you are celebrating a game's death but at the same time, y'all were CRYING and hauling for Stop Killing Games initiative to be a success. There's a limit in hypocrisy and some of you really love to cross it. Even if highguard wasn't my cup of tea, atleast i won't celebrate. Concord 2 this, Concord 2 that, how about fuck you and stick to fortnite.

@Iran_HD Ok. He was already a big help to Russia. I’m sure that division he sent to Ukraine was happy to join without hesitation.. This lil guy really needs to stop pretending that he has a seat at the table

@PhoenyxEckert @allenanalysis Yeah I’m sure the retards who can only attack civilians and random countries who had no involvement managed to destroy a 1.1billon radar, when no news is mentioning it. Totally happened 🤡

@flipyfirst @allenanalysis lmao it did happen

🚨 HOLY HELLLLLLL: Iran just took out a $1.1 billion radar at the most fortified US base in the Middle East with a single missile. THIS IS BAD!!! That radar was the backbone of ALL US missile defense in the Gulf. Every Patriot. Every THAAD. Now operating blind. Qatar intercepted 101 missiles during this conflict. Two got through. One hit the only target that mattered. This is asymmetric warfare in one sentence: Iran has to succeed once. We have to be perfect every time. We weren’t. The US just promised Navy escorts will protect Gulf shipping lanes. But if we couldn’t protect a $1.1 billion radar inside our own base — What are those escorts actually guaranteeing? The petrodollar runs through a Strait we can no longer credibly protect. One missile just changed everything.

@ClimateWarrior7 There are no Iranian warships left retard. God damn what a complete degenerate piece of shit loser

My sources are telling me the US is suffering major defeats in the war with Iran. Iranian warships are proceeding rapidly towards all American ports. The US airforce has been decimated. Trump is pleading with Ayatollah Arif to reach a peace deal but Iran seems intent on removing the US leadership. Most likely the US will be renamed North Azerbaijan. American women are already panic-buying burqas. So who will be the winners and losers in America from the new Iranian occupation regime? Losers: Zionists will likely be expelled. Most American men will probably be castrated. Christians will be expected to convert. Winners: Women will be liberated from Western degenerate clothing. Transgenders will be given free surgery.

@jacksonhinklle You missed the part where Lebanon banned all Hezbollah activites. What a disgusting piece of shit you must be to peddle misinformation for terrorists. Hope it’s worth the few cents your making on X 🤡

🚨🇱🇧🇮🇱 Today, Hezbollah accomplished the following: ✅ Hit the Haifa port ✅ Dropped missiles deep in Israel ✅ Destroyed 6 enemy tanks ✅ Struck gathering of IDF soldiers ✅ Launched drone attacks on Israel I thought Hezbollah was “finished?”

@Partisangirl You are counted among the retarded. Move over to Iran and sign up for the IRGC. They will rape you and be done with you in a month. Stop living in fantasy land.

I live in Australia and I stand with Iran/Khameni against Israel & Epstein’s army. If you don’t like it, you can suck it. You are running out of oil because Trump likes to rape kids and Israel likes to genocide. Cost of living crisis going up while you warmonger. Today we draw a line between the brave and the knave. I want to be counted among the brave.
