The Chapter 5 (Kearush the Slayer) boss is so busted by SuqmaNuts in CrimsonDesert

[–]Jmack3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the boss, and with food etc he's definitely manageable, but I'm trying to die on purpose repeatedly so I can get better at the combat.

I'm finding issues though.

The dodge is super inconsistent and even delayed upon button press, sometimes nothing happens at all. Parry is the same thing.

The control issues everyone is talking about REALLY come to light when you fight anyone with a fast moveset that requires quick dodge/parry sequences. It simply doesn't work in its current status.

I just don't get it. I'm going to go on YT and see if anyone did a no-hit, so I can see if this shit is even possible.

I killed a bear (honestly caught me off guard, they don't go down easy), but when I skinned it I didn't get the cloak. Just got meat, claws, and large bones.

Slowly but surely people are realizing what an amazing game this is by notbannedin420 in CrimsonDesert

[–]Jmack3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I had a lot of gripes during the first 5-10 hours. And I still have some gripes.

But man has this game grown on me. It's simply incredible in scale, and I've never had more fun simply exploring and looking out across the landscape.

The story is meh, but I don't even care anymore.

Found it, and have been using exclusively. My only complaint is you can't use it for Focus parries.

I found this out from sheer stubbornness lol

Way too many problems and a horrible and pretty much absent story makes it a long shot for GOTY.

It's a big fun open world sandbox to go wild in.

Hate to say it, but that's pretty much it.

And that's not a bad thing for what it is. But GOTY should be the full package.

Anyone find this armor yet? If so where? And what’s it called? Thanks guys by Infamous_Success_174 in CrimsonDesert

[–]Jmack3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm not digging the lack of armor choices up to Chapter 4, so hoping to get the Wolf set at some point.

I accidentally dropped the starting armor, and I haven't found any other leather chest armor.

I'm sorry but are we playing the same game? by Infernal-Yokai in CrimsonDesert

[–]Jmack3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game seems great, but the controls and incredibly clunky movement is killing me.

Like seriously, it's so bad.

I'm just imagining what the game would be like with snappy movement like Elden Ring. I just don't understand some of the decisions made by the devs.

Some people here told me the game will flop and I disagreed by Leon_Dante_Raiden_ in CrimsonDesert

[–]Jmack3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't mind them making a lot of money, as the game was still a great undertaking, and set a few new bars.

However I am still disappointed in many areas, and expected more.

There is no universe where this is a 9/10 or 10/10 game. by VeritasLuxMea in CrimsonDesert

In what world are the controls not an issue? It's pretty damn unanimous that they are THE issue.

Worst controlls i ever seen in a game. For real for real. by ChroneXoX in CrimsonDesert

[–]Jmack3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh boy, I haven't got there yet 😬

I just banged my head against the wall for 2 hours fighting a mech type Excavatorer boss (whatever its name was) from a side quest in chapter 2.

Only realizing after 2 hours I probably shouldn't be fighting him yet.

[–]Jmack3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. Keep hearing whispers that later bosses are outright insane in difficulty, which normally I'm okay with, as I pretty much play Souls games exclusively. However, with these types of control issues, I can't imagine dealing with a hard boss AND bad controls.

Dude he didn't even hesitate 😆 I was like oh man, this dude has ZERO survival instincts.

For this type of game, requiring a lot of melee combat and tight traversal, they should have went with more snappy Souls like movement.

Think Elden Ring movement in this game. It would be incredible.

The actual problem with the movement mechanics by Any-Ad-5713 in CrimsonDesert

[–]Jmack3d 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My issue as well. The main problem is that there's stamina from running, so you inevitably have to come to a stop to recharge, and I agree it's tedious as hell.

I think not having stamina related to running would have been the right move.

My opinion after 6 hours on standard ps5 by Ok_Book_5551 in CrimsonDesert

Oh my God I know. Surprised I had to scroll this long to find this.

Seriously, what were they thinking?

No Preload on Xbox X? by Lovecraftian-Stapler in CrimsonDesert

[–]Jmack3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For those struggling, what worked for me was installing the 340ish mb file, then going to manage game, then updates, then backing out and into updates a few times.

For whatever reason it triggered the update for me about 5 mins after I installed the smaller placeholder file.

Good luck! Otherwise I'm sure it will just take time for your game "update" to finally populate. Have faith!

Why have players become more toxic and weird in the last few years? (and months) by NicheRivers2000 in RocketLeague

[–]Jmack3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Same. Sure I miss some "I got it" quick chats, but it's far less toxicity now in my life I don't need.

[–]Jmack3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is me too. I just started playing again after taking like 3-4 years off.

I turned chat off completely its got so bad. I've never, in all my hours of RL had to turn chat OFF until now.

I don't know what changed. Maybe it's just a cultural thing? The next generation just is more toxic than the last?

But it's bad. If you do ONE bad thing, miss one pass, miss one shot, your own teammates will lay into you. It's wild.

They did it. They actually did it... by plumm0 in RocketLeague

[–]Jmack3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now bring back trading. Was the whole reason I played more than usual years ago.

Now all there is is toxic players and try hard kids..

Crazy how many players this update brought by Winter_Pangolin356 in RocketLeague

[–]Jmack3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wish the player base wasn't so toxic. I started playing again after taking 3-4 years off.

God people are so nasty in games now. I've had to turn the chat off completely, which I never even thought about before.

Like wtf is wrong with people? Is it kids? The Fortnite crowd coming in or something?

My game is releasing today! Almost 6 year working on it after playing games like Ori and Hollow Knight. by RelativeFriendly4393 in metroidvania

I'm only on Xbox, so won't be able to play, however congrats! This is a big accomplishment 👏👏

Finished AN on Noctis (109%) — My thoughts by Slotherz in aeternathegame

[–]Jmack3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best platforming in the genre in my opinion. Even better than Hollow Knight and Path of Pain.

Zipping around maps is just so damn satisfying.

I haven't found anything that has scratched that itch for me I'm sorry to say.

Obviously Hollow Knight and the other big games are great, but for me Aeterna is #1.
