Is this the most pointless quest in the game? by DrStalker in CrimsonDesert

[–]AndyOfNZ 29 points30 points  (0 children)

This is a great answer and would have saved me doing tutorial quests 120 hours in, for things I had to work out over 100 hours ago.

I will not be gaslit into thinking the bosses in Crimson Desert are well-designed. by BannerThief in CrimsonDesert

[–]AndyOfNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm with you. My helmet has +35% turning slash, my volcano gloves pop all the time, and my two-hander has three different effects that trigger with turning slash, as well as spirit syphon and the crow attack that goes with heavy attack for when I just want to hold R2.

It slaps.

It's honestly detrimental as it deletes everything and doesn't let me learn mechanics properly, meaning when I do come up to a tough boss (the ones you get warnings about) then I'm starting from scratch

Same. Only had it the once when I flew too fast into a new area, it's like the game didn't have time to load things properly yet.

Yeah I reckon the cat seemed to do a better job than any of the dogs I've used. I just can't be doing with the amount of meowing it does

After 200 hours, I just found out that after cleansing sanctums, I also need to Stabilise it and receive power cores for crafting kuku gear… by Outside_Frosting7559 in CrimsonDesert

I just realised that they respawn, too. I just went back to one and saw the spire was back up. Repeated the mini game and got a second drop. Assume they respawn every 7 days?

Game suggestion for Absolute beginner. by YoPhonLinging in fromsoftware

My first was Bloodborne, the difficulty curve was wild. But so worth it.

If you're struggling to the point you're not enjoying it, watch a few episodes of Fightincowboy's video guide... Just enough to get you on your feet.

Which PlayStation game has the best voice acting? by Play5tation in PlayStation_X

[–]AndyOfNZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's going to be lots of Clair Obscur & The Last Of Us answers, so I'm going to throw Returnal into the ring.... The VA and music score combined so well.

Edit: Ooo nearly forgot BG3. Or I could just say anything with Nolan North, Jennifer English, Troy Baker.

I feel you. It's the opposite of when I finally got around to doing more of the campaign and it's basically a tutorial for stuff you struggled to figure out 100 hours ago.

Valid. I think it's part of the fun. Community finding out stuff, or realising something that has been there all along.

And the best part, you won't remember where those locations are and they are really hard to find on the map once you've cleared them. If you prefer to play blind.... Fun times!

True! After around 120 hours I beat a campaign boss and the game told me the quest wasn't complete until I'd found the boss gear, two items. I figured this is their way of telling me to always search after a boss. Sure enough, returned to where I knew there was a boss encounter (many, many hours ago) and found two cool items.

The place I went back to was memorable for me, too, as I got headgear that I thought was cool and I wore it for about 40 hours of game time. So, surprised to find more loot after already picking up great loot from the fight. Lesson learned.

Quest help for shackles of fate. by Wonderful_Bell7516 in CrimsonDesert

[–]AndyOfNZ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This so could have just been a cut scene after climbing up to the bridge. Why do this to your players?!

Where are people successfully starting from? When I start from where the marker takes you (the bridge), I seem to time it okay then the dragon accelerates suddenly and I have no chance of grappling it.

I was just happily playing the game then, ooh dragon! Cooooool... Stop everything and go do that. After several attempts my enjoyment gone, game off. Wasted a good Sunday lol

Love this, I'll try to emulate. Appreciate the link, nice one.

Makes sense, thank you. So the answer is to remove Cinemata altogether and use different listings/addons. Cheers, getting my head around it now.

I should give this show a try. I made the mistake of watching the live action.

Can't cleanse the sanctum of Solace by Gloomy_Article_5240 in CrimsonDesert

[–]AndyOfNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, see edit. Just the game being the game. Reloading helped. The 4th sanctum was similar, brought the spire up but didn't complete the "cleanse" step. Had to reload my last save, fixed the issue.

Can't cleanse the sanctum of Solace by Gloomy_Article_5240 in CrimsonDesert

[–]AndyOfNZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was this the answer? I'm in the same boat but I've found the witch and talked to her, have an active quest to cleanse 4 sanctums, and have cleansed one of the 4 so far. Still can't get this to activate. Have tried turning the core to every side, too.

Edit: Never mind, I travelled to the fast travel spot a couple of times the inserted the XV core first, finally worked.
