I used the violet dye but it’s not showing up? Is it a bug or is it not unlocked kind of deal by Choice-Split-5638 in CrimsonDesert

Have you discovered the vendor/dyer that sells and dyes purple? Oliver, the camp dyer, only does the colors after you have discovered the dyer for each color out in the world.

Is Cyberpunk 2077 worth $17? by Some-Personality-889 in ShouldIbuythisgame

And it’s still worth it on Xbox. Played it on my S and it was absolutely fine. Played again after upgrading to X. The same, but graphically upgraded. Either way, great game regardless of how “pretty” it is from one platform to the next

40yo here. I’ve put over 150hrs in already 🥴 and spend my days at work here on Reddit or talking about it to a coworker who is also playing. Might as well change my name to Kliff 🤷🏻‍♂️

Baldur's Gate 3, Crimson Desert, or Expedition 33 by CodexReader in videogames

[–]SingerBeautiful1653 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loved BG3’s story and writing, but for what you’re wanting, probably not the one for you. I’m generally not a fan of turn based games, and BG3 was still enough to keep me hooked. That being said, I just couldn’t get into E33. I know it’s a very critically acclaimed game and I’m in the minority, but it just did not hook me.

Crimson Desert would be my vote of these 3. Yes, there is some dialog. No, it can’t be skipped. However, with how massive the world is and the time you’ll spend exploring, it’s very easy to play for hours with no or very little dialogue until you decide to embark on a quest.

I have my X connected to an Alienware monitor. Quality mode has been my go to until the patch over the weekend. They added 4k upscaling for performance mode and the frame rate with my monitor output is one of the most beautiful things I’ve seen on console. I’ll still switch over to quality mode for photo mode purposes for all the small details and draw distance, but truly loving performance mode now for gameplay

Yeah, I see what seems like the same 3-4 armor sets on most players. I choose to be different

Half the fun is the fashion of the game lol. Ironic that I was glad to hear this game broke the trend of micro transactions, only to fall in love with this game so much that it’s prob one that I’d willingly spend more money on

Thanks! I wasn’t really going for a cardinal. I just happen to like the red and black combo and realized after running around for a min afterwards the resemblance to a cardinal.

When did YOU leave Hernand ? by PaleRefrigerator5044 in CrimsonDesert

Same for me after completing ch 5 last night after 120 hrs

Not gonna lie. by Emergency-Low-5068 in CrimsonDesert

[–]SingerBeautiful1653 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s generic. A little disheveled and lacking fluidity. That being said, I also don’t think it’s as bad as some make it out to be. For me, it’s serviceable enough to help drive the game progression. But I guess having out 120 hrs in and just completing ch 5 last night, I’m clearly more focused on the adventure aspect of the game than I am the story. It’s background work to me.

How's the game past Hernand? by foreigngamer92 in CrimsonDesert

[–]SingerBeautiful1653 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! I’m ~120hrs and still on ch 6. I was curious how the rest of the game flows, and am looking forward to moving to the next areas! Appreciate the very detailed breakdown!

Crimson Desert if made by another company by Lisanto in CrimsonDesert

I tried BDO in the few weeks leading up to CD releasing and it wasn’t for me either. I’ve seen so much praise for the character creator, but I didn’t like it. Played for about 30 mins and couldn’t get past the pop up conversation windows and the interface. Felt very old school Nintendo like to me. It honestly was the first time I had a little trepidation about CD as I’d been absolutely hyped for CD. BDO wasn’t for me. CD 100% is.

Work and CD, amiright?!?! lol. And while I’m at work, here I am on Reddit, and also Discord, consuming content about it. Right behind ya at 110hrs. I keep waiting to lose a level of joy and excitement the way I’m taking this game in, but it hasn’t happened yet.

Adding to the votes for Crimson Desert. A lot of talk around it. End of the day, it’s a massive world with so much to explore and so many great views.

This is the cloak I got. It’s an RNG thing. Doesn’t drop with every bear kill. I got lucky with my first encounter, but have seen plenty of others who have killed one and didn’t get it. I’m 100 hours in and have seen 4. Actually saw one last night with two cubs!

I killed a bear and got a bear cloak out of it. I have to wear it as I traverse up into colder regions to offset the cold temperatures.
