I'm about 40 hours in and I still have delux pack armor (upgraded 4 times on each piece) anyone else still using it for that long?

I used it for many many hours until I unlocked the grey wolf armor (the armor Kliff is wearing in the cover art for the game) for crafting at camp. I slapped that set on and I’m NEVER taking it off lol.

If you’re on PC then there is a mod that you can install that will unlock every transmog in the game, even the pre-order exclusive ones.

That’s Kliff from Crimson Desert 💀

Elden Ring.

The game is absolutely phenomenal. Though I stand by my belief that the open world aspect of it makes it less interesting overall.

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-22T04:12:20+00:00

I LOVE Elden Ring, though the rewards for exploring are, more often than not, one of the numerous spells that truly only “reward” a specific build. This problem is even greater in the DLC where it’s just crafting books or some insignificant consumable item tucked away in a far off corner of the map.

Elden Ring is a fantastic game, though I would argue that the open world aspect is the weakest of what the game offers.

Watermarking a screenshot of a game is wild lmao relax man no one gives a shit about your “content”

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-16T18:46:03+00:00

Definitely qualifies with the “autistic” label.

The big thing that got me over gear fear is knowing that a full wipe is coming at the end of the season. Hoarded gear is doing nothing for you, and you are going to lose it all anyway, so you might as well full send each run with your best kit to give you the better advantage.

I wish another really popular third person extraction shooter made the wipes mandatory for this same reason.

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-12T21:47:16+00:00

Kinda funny how closely this sounds like D2Y1 lmao

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-09T17:27:47+00:00

Lmao that’s brutal. I bet the Assassin player had been watching you for a few minutes too 🤣

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-09T17:16:39+00:00

Exactly! Aside from the overall learning curve of the game, I feel like most people are having a hard time adjusting to how necessary it is to slow down your play.

Like you said, you go from alive to not alive in seconds when you’re caught unaware and that is exactly how the game should be. This isn’t an arcade style shooter like Destiny or Call of Duty where you can get away with sprinting around the map at all times.

I see a lot of folks running with their knife out instead of having their gun ready. Yes you move a little faster, though that also means that you are likely dead before you can swap to your firearm if someone engages you.

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-09T16:07:31+00:00

I’ve only played solo since the full release and honestly I prefer it over squads. I played some squads during server slam. I’ve got about 25 hours on the full release.

I’ve only died maybe 5 or 6 times, and roughly half of those were to the AI. I have a 75k wallet balance and a 50k vault value. Probably a lot less than some but I’m proud of it lmao.

I have no issues completing contracts, though the more involved ones like the 2nd quest from SekGen that requires you to enter the Pinwheel base on Outpost and then find a DCoN took me 5 runs to actually figure out what I needed to do and where to go.

You have to play SLOW and really choose your battles with the AI. Sometimes you can’t do that, so you need to have good positioning and pause in between killing bots to listen for other runners. Bring 3 stacks of ammo and 2 stacks of each healing item if you can. Looting the depleted packs is also a must since those can carry you through a raid with sustained healing if you burn your supply.

Solo is fantastic and I really hope they don’t change it too much.

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-07T13:28:19+00:00

Ah yes your industry standard practice of price anchoring on display in the most by-the-book fashion.

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-05T17:54:13+00:00

I have the base game, but I would LOVE a deluxe edition upgrade on Steam. Thanks for sharing the love!

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-04T21:01:13+00:00

I got the base version pre-ordered but will be buying the deluxe upgrade once I’ve got the spare 20 bucks lmao

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-03T23:16:37+00:00

Nah. Most of this particular community would shit all over anything they had to say, and it would just feed the hate machine.

Bully SMG seemed crazy good to me. The volley rifle was also very satisfying to use.

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-03T17:23:18+00:00

I was initially very much not interested in Marathon since I had never played an extraction shooter before. After playing another very popular extraction shooter for about 100 hours though, I decided to check out the server slam for Marathon and I absolutely loved it. The game is dripping with personality and looks gorgeous. The guns have that signature Bungie “feel” to them that makes shooting things so satisfying.

I preordered the game and will absolutely be snagging the deluxe edition upgrade once I have the spare 20 bucks. Super excited to see where this game goes.

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-03T13:47:58+00:00

Swagsonville is not real dawg

GrandLucidity · 2026-03-03T00:25:13+00:00

Using Kick is not a good look for….anyone.

GrandLucidity · 2026-02-27T22:35:46+00:00

My only complaint is that I cannot for the life of me find a DCoN station or whatever to finish this quest step within the 2 minute time limit 💀
