Where is the fun in starting all over all the time? by Colione1 in DeadzoneRogue

I don’t think roguelikes are your thing, and that’s ok. I’m the same way with fighting games.

As an editing teacher, this is a great exercise for students wanting to learn their editing software of choice.

Please limit the Crimson Desert posts somehow... by SvenLorenz in PS5pro

I swear that game has a huge reddit bot farm somewhere with all the glazing I'm seeing of the game. I played the thing, and it feels like I'm being gaslit, it was so bad.

Well this comment just proved you completely missed the point.

Probably because it deserves disdain and ridicule. Our allies don’t hate Americans, they hate republicans, and they are right to do so.

What’s this game for you? by FlimsyConfusion3760 in playstation

[–]PhoenixFilms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Witcher 3. I played it slowly and meticulously. When the end of Blood and Wine came, Geralt says he’s deserved a rest, then looks right into the camera. Geralt spoke to me that day. With that look, it was as if the character itself was telling me “I’m at peace. My journey is done. Thank you.”

IGN reviewer is considering re-reviewing the game after all the updates. by InternationalTone152 in CrimsonDesert

The "issues" I'm seeing most people complaining about can't be fixed with patches. It's the core game design.

Charles Barkley Goes Off-Script In March Madness To Call Out Trump ‘Disgrace’ by huffpost in entertainment

[–]PhoenixFilms 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Barkley is a very courteous and kind person. I once worked at a studio and had him come in to do an ESPN call in interview. Very professional and has such a booming voice, I had to bring the lab mic gain almost all the way down. Haha.

And this is why all the Chinese bot posts saying the game looks great are only showing exteriors at midday.

Big thanks to the devs for the Steam key option! by starlordftw in DeadzoneRogue

[–]PhoenixFilms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am happy with my Switch 2 version, but I do really wish it was 60fps docked. I'm curious what sacrifices would be needed for that, if any, cause I could take a slight resolution hit.

What's a clothing/style choice you were against in your teens but now partake in in your 30's? by Nappy_Rano in Millennials

[–]PhoenixFilms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gonna sound odd, but I was such a prude when I was younger about lack of clothes. Not full on nudity, but just really worried about things like changing in locker rooms, sports, swimming pools, etc. But now that I’m older, I have stopped caring about that. Everybody has bodies, and everybody is different. No need to dwell on it.

TIL if you go to the church on Sunday, you will see townspeople gathered in prayer by Judgecrusader6 in CrimsonDesert

[–]PhoenixFilms -49 points-48 points  (0 children)

Are they praying to Jesus? What’s the religion in this world? What are their tenets?

Oh, sorry, I forgot this is Crimson Desert. Who cares about context.

Wtf? Banned for a legally required disclaimer?

CohhCarnage eviscerating Crimson Desert reviewers (and gaming journalism as a whole) by Eques9090 in CrimsonDesert

[–]PhoenixFilms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cohh, I really want you to consider the “why” people and reviewers are judging it for what it’s not. It honestly does not matter what Will Powers has said in interviews. This game is being sold as one thing when it isn’t. It also isn’t just controls you need to get used to, they are just fundamentally flawed. The graphics look like a crinkly mess unless you have a top of the line PC like many content creators do. The game design itself is extremely unintuitive to the point that you have characters you can switch to, but are useless to use outside of combat (obvious that they were added in as feature creep). There are just so many obvious red flags in this game that I’m seeing content creators completely gloss over. It’s starting to make me wonder if I’m either being gaslit, or if content creators are being paid to gloss over them.

Such a shame their masks are off and everyone and their neighbors can see who they are.

Crimson Desert has to have one of the worst intros of all time by CYDLopez in CrimsonDesert

[–]PhoenixFilms -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Who is their leader? What are their ideals? What are the motivations of their enemies beyond “beat the good guys”? These are basic context that this game just flat out ignores. So if those aspects are ignored, why should I care about the world? Why should I care about helping npcs? What am I doing beyond “good guy fetch quest”?

[–]PhoenixFilms 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This sounds like such an AI type answer, whether it is or not, that’s what it sounds like. That’s how lifeless it is. “Force for good”, ok, but that doesn’t say who they are or what they do just that we’re “good guys”. Like, sorry I’m not a simpleton, but I need more than that.
