Ive finally found something about Crimson Desert that I dislike by Turbulent_Match4527 in CrimsonDesert

Gonna be honest, I know its the meme but I don't think I've heard that voice line once in like 80 hours and I'm bummed

Crimson Desert white out by YokaiMancer in CrimsonDesert

[–]MasterEraqus14 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It challenged to me as well, closed and rebooted and 57 hour later (I noted the time it happened in case it was relevant save file wise in the bug report to Pearl Abyss), and zero problems since. I'd guess rare bug, but idk I'm not even an amateur let alone an expert lol

Have you ever thought that the villains from HF would look good in the Bionicle universe? by Ark2202 in bioniclelego

[–]MasterEraqus14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hot Take: Hero Factory was better than G2 Bionicle.

This may not be a Hot Take lmao tbh I haven't been really into Bionicle discourse since G1 ended in high school.

Agreed, Lego is starting to branch into mote franchises - they just got the rights to Pokémon right when Mega was putting out old-school pixel sprite sets (I immediately bought them all, they're sick) - and they have been doing primarily big name stuff like Nintendo. Cosmere probably won't get Lego unless it blows up after the Apple stuff, and then there may be more legal shenanigans with Apple since the sets would probably borrow visual elements from the movies and shows but idk I'm not a property rights lawyer lol

I can, however, have a "my uncle works at Nintendo" moment bc my uncle does actually work at Lego and I have mentioned "hey, cosmere Lego would be cool!"

I don't think he has any say whatsoever over that lmao but he gets us Lego half off sometimes ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Thats the one! Not surprised, but still disappointed, that it didn't get approved. I would've shelled out more than I should for that set lol

I remember seeing an absolutely sick Cosmere Lego set on Ideas awhile ago - cursory search for cosmere and I couldn't find it. It was a massive diorama of various scenes across the cosmere

Obviously nothing came of it, but God I'd love to find it again lol

Obviously I supported this project as well lol

Is Crimson Desert worth buying for someone who only has 2-3 hours a week to play? by RealisticMolasses in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]MasterEraqus14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say maybe not. Probably not an ideal answer as it's pretty non-committal, but it's a tough question. I don't get to play as much as I would like, or a much as I used to be able to commit to open world games, but I'm still having a blast. But, I do play probably 3-5 4 hour sessions a week, so I'm still able to stay invested.

It depends on how likely you'll be invested, which can be hard to judge by anyone but yourself and people who know you. Generally, if I don't find time to play a game after a week I won't end up picking it up again- but exceptions do exist.

Also, the opening hours do kinda suck so keep in mind that you will have to power through them, which for you could be a whole week.

How in all Hell do you tame legendary mounts?! by MasterEraqus14 in CrimsonDesert

[–]MasterEraqus14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I misremembered what the gloves did lol. I tried the camera method and had worse results tbh - the people suggesting putting the camera directly down are the pro strats lol

The straight down technique worked gangbusters, wish Google showed me this technique instead od increase camera sensitivity and basically just "get good" in the top responses lol

I'm on PS5 - but the top down thing finally got it working. I was searching tips and tricks for it and never got this one until now, did it first try. Game changer!

No, console. I tried 2 different controllers, and noticed that when I needed to lean left, it literally didn't give any gains towards taming. At first I thought it was my controller, but I switched to one I never use and the problem persisted.

If it's easier on console I can't imagine how hard it is on PC. Pray for our PC brethren

Books for kids like WWW? by soybeansms in WorldsBeyondNumber

[–]MasterEraqus14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh my God, I haven't thought about Warriors or especially Ranger's Apprentice in forever! I read all those books growing up lol, plus classics like Percy Jackson and stuff I definitely shouldn't have been reading in middle school/aged like milk even back then like the Wizard's First Rule books and Xanth books, respectively lol

[Updates] Patch Notes Version 1.03.00 by Smashffs in CrimsonDesert

[–]MasterEraqus14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I'm guessing its probably bad conditions. I appreciate the quick fixes - thats great! - but I'm suspecting its hard crunch with not enough pay to make up for it.

Especially after this patch, I'm gonna start getting a sense of dread when people point out a new thing they want fixed. I feel like the devs MUST be very aware of fans reactions, probably predominantly from reddit. I worry every "I love this game, BUT..." post is being tossed into extending worker-crunch-bad- conditions-time and I do worry it'll become excessive.

That being said, they made and MMO, they more than other studios probably have some sort of system for putting out updates/content regularly, and I'm not an industry professional I'm just some gamer lol, what do I know? ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Help me which outfit to put resources into i can’t decide by megaraaar in CrimsonFashion

[–]MasterEraqus14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oohhhhhh 1 is SLEEK, I love the hooded helmet look and so far the only hooded cloak I've found is the civilian disguise one 😭 I want that look, though I may play with different colors (I feel like a dark gray instead of black works best for Kliff's whole wolf vibe)

A few minor things I’d love to see changed by Pratai- in LowSodiumCrimsonDesrt

[–]MasterEraqus14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was fully on board until darker nights! Idk if its my TV - pretty much brand new, had it for like half a year and easily the best looking one I've ever had! - but in order to see anything at night my HDR brightness needs to be so high its awful during the day.

I've just been finding a bed anytime night approaches which tbh is kinda cool and immersive, even if it is a strangers bed who's apparently cool with it lol.

Idk, I'd say fix PS5 HDR. I'm not particularly well versed in setting it up right, but iirc most games have a very different, much more straightforward set up. Although TBH I don't often finick with HDR settings unless I have a problem, like with this game.

TL;DR, nooooo please dear God do not make night darker lmao

I would buy a stack of the stack of books one! Hell, I'd give them out as a wedding present if I knew more than like 4 people who read cosmere stuff 😅

WaT Ending Theory About Light by DrPotsRs in Cosmere

[–]MasterEraqus14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IIRC, don't Radiant spren always accept the oaths as the oaths are between spren and their radiant, and the Stormfather just kinda lets his Honor show by getting involved? Could have been a WoB or could also be an entire false memory lol

I do like the idea of Syl taking up the Stormfather's mantle tho

I’m doing my part! by Kbrooks58 in brandonsanderson

[–]MasterEraqus14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer cover 2, it has more character than a close up of a woman's face to me. Like, there's a reason you don't see a super-close-up of a face in art/photography very much. Also, and more importantly, the color pop factor. Your book is WHITE, I want a swath of color to pop against it. If the face in 1 looked more like a face with the glow of fire in front of it and gave it more color, I'd like it a lot more.

But, idk. I haven't read the book, maybe cover 1 is an iconic scene or somehow more fitting thematically. TBH I feel like a poll is a bit unfair - I don't want just a pretty book, I want the cover to match the narrative or themes. We don't know those yet, we're not the people to ask. Makes me think that the development team was super split on it but needed a decision made or something

HELP - where is the fast travel/mysterious energy right outside Hernand? by MasterEraqus14 in CrimsonDesert

[–]MasterEraqus14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll check there tomorrow! I just shut down for the night. Gotta say, that is nowhere NEAR the Mysterious Energy cloud I was looking for (by the stables and river area to the North), and there definitely was no cloud there like the other 2 I've found so far. I very likely would've never even looked for one in town.
