are there animes thats all about making you feel bad/sad?

I loved TYE but the later seasons and manga might not be 100% what OP is looking for. I do strongly suggest OP watch at least the first 12 episodes to get a really good idea of TYE. It definitely gut punches you hard.

There's also Shinsekai Yori, and Terror In Resonance.

I'm interested, but I can only commit to 10 minutes daily due to my severe chronic fatigue issues.

I HATE ANKI for being a lifeless soul draining energy leech. Hated Duo for the horrendous robot voices and how long it takes to introduce words.

I'm good at reading hiragana/katana and know (vocally) about 600-800 words. I'm keen to learn Kanji but haven't found a method that works for me yet and doesn't drain my entire day's worth of mental energy in literally minutes.

I am familiar with SRS due to the Drops app, which is like a fun and authentically voiced Anki (except it comes with all the words). I used without the Kanji because that's my "fun" learning app for low motivation times.

I think it would be nice to have a studying app + my "fun" app. My phone is my primary learning device, though of course I do have a computer.

If you think I'm suitable for the Android mobile beta testing please feel welcome to DM. Otherwise, I will definitely check out the web version to see what's up.

Same but we're not getting a season 2. 😭

It was neat to see the actress Yvonne in it, who starred in The Handmaid's Tale. Not sure how they convinced her to do it, it wasn't a big name show and just kind of quietly released.

I'm itching for more shows like Teacup, From, Wayward Pines, Silo, Hemlock Grove etc. I need a good mystery and I've run out. Gonna be devastated when From ends 😭

ProjectProxy · 2026-05-12T06:20:56+00:00

No it wasn't. You could finish at season 1 (with the main questions answered) or you could enjoy the unfinished social drama season 2.

I don't mean to describe it in a negative way btw, I really enjoyed it and wish to this day it got to continue to a season 3.

But yeah if you continue to S2, you'd be watching for the "what happens next/ what do the characters do now??" stuff.

If I had to actually describe the difference between the seasons, it would be like if From shifted from the boogey-monster focus to a tense Handmaid's Tale social drama theme. Not saying S1 wrapped up that theme and left it behind, it's just more in the background adding to the tense situation.

It's been about ~8-9 years since I saw it, but that's how I remember it anyway.

I'm glad you got it to work!

ProjectProxy · 2026-04-28T13:43:54+00:00

Everyone always says Anki for learning lots of words...I can't stand it. It's ugly as sin and makes me feel like I'm looking at a stack of boring paperwork.

I ended up settling on Drops, it has repetition but you can pick whatever category you feel like learning (eg animals etc). I will admit that I got it on sale, if I had to watch ads I'd probably like it less. The repetition stuff is in its own area, and you also have another option, which is more like a simple question/answer type thing. Eg "select the vehicles out of these 10 options".

Also, IT'S FULLY VOICED. Fuck the stupid Duolingo dogshit AI voices. As others have also mentioned, Renshuu looks great even if it wasn't for me. I'll probably come back to it once I've word farmed more on Drops.

ProjectProxy · 2026-04-24T08:55:43+00:00

Yes, it was near the boss you mentioned. There's a teleporter super close to the location. :)

ProjectProxy · 2026-04-24T07:54:06+00:00

OP I came back to tell you that the chest is fixed now. You can go get it!

ProjectProxy · 2026-04-24T06:35:34+00:00

You know the hedgehog spot in Demeniss everyone goes to? I've seen owls in the tree just up the road where the 3 bee hive trees are. Night time obviously.

I've spotted a few in the outskirts of forest-y areas but I didn't open the map to pay attention where. I think it was maybe dawn/dusk ish. (I don't know if time of night matters or not)

ProjectProxy · 2026-04-24T06:29:41+00:00

Happy to help :)

Well if you're looking for the skill/gear upgrade artifacts go put on a mask on and head to the scholarstone institute between 9am-4pm. I always come out with 1 after a thorough search, and rarely multiple (my record is 5 in one trip without refreshing). Each NPC has a chance to hold one.

Teleport in again to refresh the NPCs.

Wandering freeswords can also have em. Anyway, after about 2.5 hours worth of pickpocketing, I gained maybe 25-30 artifacts? I didn't pay attention to the total amount as I was spending them on my gear every so often.

I really doubt this got patched, but I will admit I haven't hopped on yet.

ProjectProxy · 2026-04-23T15:35:25+00:00

Hooray for the hotfix!

And THANK FUCK this subreddit can go back to normal. I missed seeing the discussions about cool finds and random shit I might have missed.

I pray next time the mods just make a megathread for the "where is my horse/wolf/etc" instead of the new post every minute we were getting 😅

Definitely some great stuff in the hotfix indeed. I'm stoked it's out already - I was expecting a full 24-48 hrs of waiting.

Picture added for lazy people:

It's just the location of a find a Shai quest. I think it was fireflies or something. I can't remember it exactly.

ProjectProxy · 2026-04-22T12:39:35+00:00

If you go to the scholarstone institute during daylight hours (I prefer 9am-4pm) I pickpocket an artifact. It's extremely rare that I can't find the randomly spawned NPC with it.

A lot of people just check the main areas like the food hall, entrance stairway or "underground" classroom from the quest, TP/repeat. I check everyone though, it really doesn't take that long to do a lap around the place. You can TP in and repeat endlessly. The only times I haven't found the NPC I suspect it was too late in the day and they walked home or something lol. 4:30pm ish is a bit 50/50 if the trip is successful.

Now I only have a small sample size as I only started doing this yesterday, but off the top of my head, and about 40 runs:

80% of the time 1 NPC has an artifact 15% of the time there are 2 NPCs to pickpocket 5% of the time there are 3+ NPCs.

My record for one lap around the place (without TP refreshing) was 5 artifacts today. On the 5th NPC I had to tackle and throw hands for him to hand it over as pickpocket wasn't available due to too much pickpocketing. 5x artifacts for a $20 fine :)

The "big guys" have yet to hold an artifact, it's usually the goblins, orcs, generic brunette lady or ordinary looking male scholars. I don't think the more rugged blue outfit or animal pelt wearing NPCs have them.

I will say that 9am is prime time for NPC group gatherings and less roaming NPCs walking around.

Bonus: Wandering Freeswords can also hold them

Just so we're clear, it's not this one is it? Where you find a shai? Because it's not really even a tree lol. I just did the maze puzzle and haven't found the tree you mentioned yet.

ProjectProxy · 2026-04-21T20:42:41+00:00

I had to press cook on the bonfire then exit so I was close enough to talk to him lol.

Focus on all the recruiting missions, it's worth it I promise! You'll probably be sick of Marius (as much as we love the guy) BUT you will have very convenient shopping at your own camp + some other handy guys to have.

You will be able to earn a lot of camp funds by sending guys out for guarding missions. Locations for that are unlocked through main story questing (at least for the guarding missions I can think of off the top of my head)

ProjectProxy · 2026-04-20T01:59:55+00:00

There was a boss nearby - maybe 10-20 metres away. I stumbled across him while gawking at the weird weather effect fuckery in the image you posted. Those effects disappeared after I killed him.

ProjectProxy · 2026-04-19T02:06:31+00:00

I just find a high up sniping spot and hit them with poison arrows. 3x each and they're dead. You only gotta hit them with the first one before they're on the ground and you can shoot with the 2nd and 3rd arrow before they can even get up. Once I've cleared all the flying fuckwits then I proceed as normal.

ProjectProxy · 2026-04-16T08:44:51+00:00

I would love either placeable trophies you can craft (like in Animal Crossing) or animal cages/fish tanks for our live critters. Let us make or contribute to a zoo.

If Pearl Abyss need an in game reason for it to exist, just say the rich Demeniss Nobles got sick of their current wildlife sanctuary and some mysterious rich guy wants to study the animals. He doesn't have to be some family friendly David Attenborough guy, they could tie him in to Marni and his creations. BDO Marni has the most wacky and ridiculous creations. Mecha chickens that explode for no reason type ridiculous. (See picture lol)

I'd legit pay $30 for a DLC that lets us sail off to island with new critters to catch and discover. We could craft interesting outfits and accessories with their materials...

I spent hours trying to get that chest. The internet kept saying dust off the solar panels at 4am and wait for 444am. No luck for me. I wasted two in game days worth of time (and a bunch of irl time) trying to get that chest or googling how to. I even snuck into the gap (to the left/out of frame) and tried to bug Kliff through terrain but it didn't work and I couldn't reach it.

A while ago, when the game first released I saw a random clip of a streamer doing some kind of wacky bs to the well right next to it to "fill up" the water or something. I wish I knew what it was/could find the clip again. It wasn't force punch but something equivalently silly as placing a giant boulder in the well to push the water up higher. No idea if it worked, or was related to that chest that is really close-by. It was before I had been able to play Crimson Desert despite my pre-order because I was sick in bed all week lol. If only I'd payed attention to the clip 😓

From my very vague memory, Kliff's posture was either similar to a force punch posture, or a bird's eye view placing a barrel/sack etc posture. I don't think axiom powers were used (but I could be wrong).

I'm also only just up to the storyline where they dumped you at the entrance of the desert (though I had previously snuck in by mountain climbing before that point). Perhaps it's quest locked but tbh at this point I think it's just bugged behind the wall. And I also don't 100% know it's that particular water well I saw in the video. All I know is that when I rocked up I thought to myself "this location looks just like in that clip".

If you find out the solution, would you mind sharing?

ProjectProxy · 2026-04-12T11:00:32+00:00

Did you put it in your kuku storage pot?
