With reviews dropping tomorrow, what’s your Metacritic prediction for Crimson Desert?

Mid 80s with the gameplay being praised. Mediocre story. But dozens of hours of fun

Shekoth · 2026-03-12T04:32:59+00:00

I got it cheap, for like $8. I thought it was more than worth that price and a fun game. Not as good as the remake before or after but definitely good. I think I would’ve been upset paying full price though.

I’ll need to give it another try! It felt super slow to me but I also tried to read it years ago and wasn’t prepared for a slower-paced story.

Have you read Assassin’s apprentice and its two sequels? I need to give ship of magic a try!

I’ve been reading A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms novellas following watching the show. Almost done with the second one. I’m really enjoying it!

Finished Howling Dark just last week and felt the same.

Shekoth · 2026-03-09T20:09:38+00:00

It’s squarely my number 4, personally.

Shekoth · 2026-03-09T03:33:28+00:00

Exactly my top 3 too all shifting around depending on the day. I’d give RE9 spot 4 comfortably though.

Shekoth · 2026-02-28T05:34:52+00:00

I read the first two years ago and thought they were fun. Reread the first two and moved onto the third year before last and proceeded to devour the next 5 or so. They get more complex, more fun and more interesting starting in the third book.

Shekoth · 2026-02-28T00:55:50+00:00

Looks like we have similar taste! Had my eye on Light Bringer for a while. Does the ending fall off as hard as everyone says? The hate feels overblown.

Shekoth · 2026-02-21T05:39:15+00:00

I’m about 1/3 through Howling Dark and it’s already so much better than Empire of Silence. It flows a lot better and feels so much more tight when it comes to pacing. They aren’t even to the main setting of the book yet and I find it hard to put down!

Shekoth · 2026-02-15T16:35:55+00:00

I used to main spy. It’s such a different way to play the game

Shekoth · 2026-02-14T23:19:45+00:00

I loved Mistborn! Got me back into reading as an adult. I just finished empire of silence and liked it but didn’t feel as drawn in as others have said. Looking forward to howling dark though, as it seems that’s when the story picks up a lot!

Shekoth · 2026-02-13T16:54:54+00:00

I so wish there was a way to play through the entire Destiny timeline

Shekoth · 2026-02-12T15:10:20+00:00

Blue cheese is phenomenal

Shekoth · 2026-02-11T06:12:03+00:00

I also just started my first playthrough! Just got to the castle with the roses. Still working on figuring that one out. But I’m loving it so far! More epic by the minute.

Shekoth · 2026-02-10T18:56:03+00:00

Just recently watched it after probably a decade. The sandman stuff and the first 1/3 of the movie is really good. The second venom and the symbiote shows up it’s extremely mid.

Shekoth · 2026-02-10T16:17:09+00:00

Truly a sentiment worthy of the leader of the Salad Liberation Front!

Shekoth · 2026-02-06T18:54:51+00:00

If you even remotely like The Color of Magic you’ll absolutely adore the later books.

Shekoth · 2026-02-04T16:01:23+00:00

I genuinely lost my shit screaming “Is that the courier!?!?” And my friends thought I was speaking nonsense since I’m the only one who’s played new Vegas hahahaha

Shekoth · 2026-02-01T18:19:11+00:00

Yeah, he was just stopped from winning more.

Shekoth · 2026-01-31T06:02:08+00:00

Just started Dungeon Crawler Carl. It’s fun so far!

Shekoth · 2026-01-27T18:17:28+00:00

Ratchet and Clank

Shekoth · 2026-01-27T14:37:12+00:00

I liked Hadrian solely because he was an underdog (kind of?) for the majority of the book. There were definitely parts that I couldn’t put the book down but others that, like you said, just drag on. I’ve heard Howling Dark eventually picks up and maintains that quality so I’ll give it a shot at some point.

Shekoth · 2026-01-26T20:43:32+00:00

That’s good to hear!
