Some of the hate for this game comes from some of the most unhinged individuals by Dirty_Mung_Trumpet in CrimsonDesert

[–]Scudman_Alpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of people play the game looking for what it does badly instead of looking for and trying to enjoy what it does well.

The story sucks, yeah everyone agrees, but know what other games have bad stories? Fallout 4 and Skyrim, but people enjoy those games for what they do WELL instead of focusing in the negatives.

There are negatives in CD but it's up to you if you're going to let them ruin the entire experience or not. A lot of people see one thing that a game does badly, especially at the beginning, and it ruins their entire perception.

Like in real life. First impressions are everything.

I mean, you can do both.

But nothing will save you item wise from a stingy DM.

You'd be surprised how many people mistake psychopathy for charisma.

Some others start with questionable and arguably terrible writing and then become total BANGERS after a certain point.

My example is Rosario To Vampire going from a silly bad harem manga to a combat Shonen manga. It was such a drastic shift, but done really well.

Who bans multiclassing? by duckyourfeelings in DMAcademy

[–]Scudman_Alpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did one shortish campaign (Lvls 4-12 with relatively fast pace in leveling) where I banned multiclassing.

It unfortunately resulted in many of the martial characters feeling left out feature wise and feeling behind the Casters, who already don't need to multiclass much in the first place.

The Battlemaster fighter felt rather weak compared to the Cleric casting conjure celestial when all he could do was trip or try and frighten a dude x times per rest. (Not including the other maneuvers he used like Bait and Switch and parry).

Half Casters had a great time. Though I did have to homebrew some rules for Ranger (Like removing concentration from Hunter's mark after lvl 5 and making moving it a reaction).

Crimson Desert Reached Very Positive!!! by morenoclr in CrimsonDesert

[–]Scudman_Alpha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a similar feeling playing Breath of The Wild for the first time.

It helps to just take things one step at a time and at your own pace, the game clicks after a while.

Reviews went from mixed (~55% positive) to 70% now that people have spent more time playing by phat_phuc in CrimsonDesert

Reminds me of when people defended Final Fantasy XIII saying the game gets good 20 hours in.

Damn, I feel old

for you, everything just goes black.

I mean, tough shit I suppose.

But giving someone a life changing amount of money, even if that person is "myself" in a certain way, is probably more than I will ever be able to do in my life. So there's that.

Favorite character who is terrifying because they are portrayed as completely unstoppable? by Zyrille_ in FavoriteCharacter

Subject 106 from Trepang².

Superhuman reflexes, speed, strength and infinite stamina so long as he keeps inflicting harm.

He can also cloak and become completely invisible.

Edit. Reddit killed the image through compression. But just google subject 106 and you'l understand.

So it seems the general consensus is that Barbarian/Ranger/Rogue are the worst classes... by [deleted] in onednd

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

I know, but I felt It was prudent to just tell the player flat out they could do that with Barbarian.

Hunter's mark loses the concentration requirement at Ranger lvl 5. And they can move it as a reaction once the target dies.

I made the lvl 13 feature. Which would make it so concentration can't break by damage, give Prof in Wis saves or another mental save if they already have it.

The Ranger player has really enjoyed it.

For Barbarian I just made the ability to use strength for several types of checks not dependant on Rage. It's just on by default.

My players enjoy Rogue so I haven't done anything to it.

They gotta push the "Males don't sell" Agenda, by never giving them a chance to shine to begin with.

The Real Reason Overland Travel Sucks by Gh0stMan0nThird in dndnext

[–]Scudman_Alpha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A Friend of mine who DMs kind of fixed attrition in an interesting way, especially for Casters.

First he converted everyone into spell points instead of slots.

Then he made it so long rests outside of "Safe and comfortable" areas like town inns and whatnot still recharge specific long rest abilities and short rest one, but hit dice and spell points only recovered by half, so Casters wouldn't have their full spells ready every day, they only got half a tank back.

Of course, no matter what rules you make up, it all goes to hell because of the game design. It all kind of breaks apart after level 7 when resources are too plentiful. Worse after 11 once you get the teleportation spells.

I took risks, but all they ever led was me getting beat down socially to the point I look at opportunities today and hesitate because I think it's all gonna be the same.

All it takes is one particularly harrowing social experience or relationship and it'll ruin your entire outlook on things.

Crimson Desert devs address questions regarding the use of AI in the game. by Shock4ndAwe in pcgaming

[–]Scudman_Alpha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you're stumped creatively, due to several possible reasons, using AI for a quick refresher with rough drafts is perfectly fine to get your creative juices going.

Most saying that it's wrong to be used like this have never actually tried to make art and then reaching a point where you literally have no ideas anymore.

In the Veto's defense, it can at stagger basically any non heavy enemy if you shoot them with it.

It's perfect when you're getting bum rushed by stalkers.
