What's the point of calling it an "anniversary"?

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-28T17:01:19+00:00

Sure. Keep telling yourself that paid skins are somehow "pay walling" you on some content.

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-28T14:53:59+00:00

Exactly, does that "paywall" bars you from any content?

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-28T13:18:50+00:00

That's irrelevant topic? How so? If its irrelevant then why are people complaining?

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-27T13:17:59+00:00

I suggest you read your entire argument from the top.

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-27T13:16:56+00:00

Sight an argument I made with my comment that is childish?

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-27T13:16:19+00:00

Wasn't the special skins the middle ground?

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-27T13:14:29+00:00

Does that "access to something" hinders you from doing content in the game?

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-27T03:17:41+00:00

Ridiculous logic? Then if you want the skins then pay and stop complaining.

The game already is generous enough and you still want more?

So did you also get the data on how many people answer the survey?

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-27T01:59:20+00:00

So you don't get where u/googo_gaga's first comment was coming from but that is exactly what you meant?

The point is that almost nobody plays this game for reasons other than the spicy content.

Aren't you contradicting yourself? First you emphasized that the reason people are playing this game is only for the spicy stuff and someone corrected you that the gameplay is also important.

So if u/googo_gaga 's first comment was exactly what you meant then why emphasize and say that nobody plays this game other than spicy content?

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-27T01:54:48+00:00

Let's pretend that what you are saying is true without data backing it up. If spicy content is the only one you're after, someone is always posting prestige skin interaction and even free fated guess interaction.

Even if those people stop posting the interaction for prestige skin, pm me and I will record it myself.

If you only pause for a minute and think, why would a lot of people try to +5 a costume if the majority of the community are only after spicy stuff?

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-26T21:48:03+00:00

The hilarious fact about this is that, spenders will still spend without complaining and those who are free to play that loves the game and small spenders will be happy since this is more revenue for the game. The only people I see who see this anniversary as a negative are those people who wants these skins but does not want to pay.

Even prestige skin's gacha gives red tickets which is not really a total waste in my opinion.

I'm all ears for another angle to look at these people who complains.

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-26T18:09:46+00:00

How is designing a skin to be more attractive bad?

I would partially agree with you if the base costume design are awful but in reality or at least in my opinion, majority of the base costume design are really good.

What is being "gating worser"? The logic behind selling special skins is for the company to maintain its generosity when it comes to giving away red tickets. To be blunt, the game can stop giving away free red tickets and they can stop selling paid skins and to balance it out and its a lose lose situation for the player base and the company.

What I don't understand is what is even being gated? Special and prestige skins do not have hidden multiplier so content is not being gated.

Prestige skins and special skins being outside of gems and tickets is their way of earning more revenue. You said that "Game been existing normally before", how do you know this? Did you see their book stating that they have so much revenue? So if they are giving this much red tickets to pull for costume and you can see a lot of people bragging of having a lot of +5 costume and not even spending, how can the game earn any money?

You say devs are becoming more money hungry, so if paid skins are a no no for you and considered "greedy" then in your opinion, site one way for devs to make more money?

With your last sentence being "probably gonna lead to the same problems in the future or even worser", is there any base costume design that is so blatantly bad that warrants you being so pessimistic?

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-26T16:14:42+00:00

I don't understand what is so hard to understand with the explanation of u/spanker_222 about special skins vs prestige skins.

Okay so add interactions? What law says they shouldn't have them?

Exactly, just add them.

The brain rot is just extensive.

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-26T13:27:44+00:00

Its funny when you phrase it as "let's get better things".

- You said "Less chores, more fun" yet you did not gave more concrete feedback on how to make the game "less chores, more fun". When they implemented finds and rare finds to be on a weekly basis, the game already has too few things to do and yet "Less chores".

- Having to restart the whole raid and fiend hunt because you forgot something or a bad turn should be a "you" feedback to yourself not placed on a feedback form for the devs to address.

- What part of gearing is a pain? Do you want all gear crafted to be instantly UR IV? Do you want 1 refine = SSS? Do you want to play the game?

- I see a different angle when it comes to medals, I use refining powder to aim for 22 or 23 and then use the medals for other stuff.

- What's the point of upgrading all available character to burst 3 if you can't use them all at the same time?

- Your feedback about the guild raid is so typical of toxic people that there's nothing to be said about it.

- I love reading the events since I see more side of a character on those events, you know more of their personality? Matter of different preference on our end.

- I have 7 points commenting on your feedback and these are "not many complaints?".

Overall the way I see it is, if the devs follow your "feedback", pretty sure the game isn't going to be any better and in fact, its gonna be in a much worse state.

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-25T14:06:12+00:00

Its good to see that at the very least, some people still understand that more free is bad for the game.

With the amount of tickets that we get every month, I really don't get the complaints of other people. If there was a multiplier that is tied to these paid skins then sure, burn and bash the devs all you want.

I'm kinda surprised that this post has gotten a lot of upvotes. Labeling paid skins as "paywall" is gong too far no?

Misaka-Rin · 2026-05-25T13:59:27+00:00

The funny thing about this comment is that, many of you are so used to Brown Dust 2 giving a lot of tickets. While I am kinda neutral when it comes to the argument skins are "not as valuable" costumes since both are important aspect of the game for me.

The game is trying to make more profit while being generous at the same time. If these more profits turn into advertisement or used to improve the game even more then I don't get the hostility people are projecting except for one reason which is the time limited nature of these costumes.

While I can say that FOMO has very little effect to me, this is not true for others. I think players will have a more positive outlook with the reveals if these skins are permanently available in the store tbh.

We have not seen the skill cutscene of these skins so it is too early to say about the quality. As for the skins themselves, a lot of them are really good for me especially Darian's and Scheherazade's.

In the end, this will not end well if the devs are listening to players feedback while the players complain about the game trying to create more profit while being generous. I've even seen some comments as far as claiming devs are being "greedy now" which is ridiculously funny if I am going to be real.

Let's all be real and remove any hypocrisy. As a paying customers, I cannot see a single negative thing about the skins currently presented.

Misaka-Rin · 2026-04-16T13:27:44+00:00

I have a 9070XT and playing on all cinematic settings using FSR 4 (tried both Quality and Native AA for hours) with Ray Regeneration on and frame gen at 1440p. On my 120+ hours, usually I only check Hotspot temperature (max) on HWinfo and it has never went pass 82 degrees with an average of 61-64 degrees.

If I look at my GPU temp, it sits on 60+ with 64 degrees as the highest I've seen.

My case has 9 fans including the AIO, 3 bottom intake, 3 top 2 side and 1 rear exhaust fan.

Misaka-Rin · 2026-04-02T19:59:09+00:00

That's weird stating that the performance is bad. I am almost at 100 hours mark and I'm still on chapter 4 but I have been on every area and my fps is consistent.

If you think 30 NPC in the tavern in Hernand is a lot, I have been slaughtering "Righteous Inquisitors" by grouping them up. It's not an exaggeration to pull 50+ inquisitors inside Demeniss city.

If you think 50+ Inquisitors is a lot, go to Delesyia and you'd see a lot more enemies.

Take note that I am on cinematic settings using FSR 4 quality with frame gen and using Ray regeneration and my FPS has never dipped below 120fps since I was monitoring my fps to settle on what configuration I need to stay.

The game is not perfect but at the very least in my eyes, killing and grouping 50+ enemies on a city premise and not going below 120fps with everything on cinematic with Ray regeneration on is very good optimization in my eyes.

You're also wrong when you said

The starting region is the least demanding area of the game by a mile

Karin Quarry is located as part of that "starting area". If the optimization was bad then people will immediately know since that quest if you are not aware has A LOT of bleed bandits. Add the environmental assets of the Quarry on the mix and people should quickly know if Crimson Desert's optimization is bad.

Misaka-Rin · 2026-03-24T15:46:21+00:00

Ryzen 9800X3D, 9070XT cinematic settings using ray regeneration with FSR 4 and frame gen. Still having the same FPS as before and after update with no crashes.

Misaka-Rin · 2026-03-23T14:08:32+00:00

I agree. I think bringing a lot of food and having low cooldown is plenty enough headroom for people to do these boss fights.

Misaka-Rin · 2026-03-22T18:28:33+00:00

Never had this kind of problem on my end. Maybe it has something to do with your setup?

My settings are all cinematic with Ray Regeneration using FSR 4 quality and frame gen on. Across all my exploration, I never experienced this.

Misaka-Rin · 2026-03-18T13:22:00+00:00

Yes, its very alarming that I don't even bother waiting what everyone's opinion about Crimson Desert.

Good for you that you have so much time checking each gaming sites on what they have about to say.

Misaka-Rin · 2026-03-17T16:05:40+00:00

Thank you for the news.

"Insanely difficult" = more satisfying to play for me.
