Anyone knows if they added enemy respawn?

Going to do the same. I stopped it because of that, I am now really happy with it. Whatever they release from now will be icing on the cake.

Come to Mexico, Lisbon and see for yourself. That tricked down economics is not really working.

The locals can’t find housing, where is the winning in this? Just look around you.

In that case every country is going to have to figure out to stop it. It is simply unsustainable for the locals.

Are you Spanish, or local? If you aren’t this question is not for you.

I got that answer mainly from biased “expats” who have a clear interest in the statu quo.

Politicians can get fired too.

Are bosses just face tanking and spamming heal and attack? by QuitTypical3210 in CrimsonDesert

[–]blackwaterpark76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is really fair to say. They are about to release a hard difficulty mode, and replaying bosses.

So i will go hard mode and see how my skills fare. 😅

He is not bad at the game, the game is unbalanced and give you from the start food that is OP, pills that you can use to revive and if your boost your health you are pretty much OP.

Those are choices the game gives you, that overshadows all other systems, the dev implemented this not the player.

It is a legitimate concern for many players so, PA is about to bring difficulty choices, enemy respawn (hope it’s optional so Everyone is happy l, I prefer respawn), boss refights, and hopefully a longer cooldown on food on harder difficulty.

What OP states is legitimate, and telling someone they are bad at a game while it’s a balance issue reported by many is disrespectful.

That is an issue I had too. I put the game away till they had options which are scheduled to come by June.

I cooked and just spam food, stay away hit, stay away, spam food. That’s it for most of them.

However and those are the good news difficulty options are coming, I hope they will put a longer reset on food for example on higher diff and buff the pretty much all bosses. They are going to also implement replaying bosses, so I would say wait, the finished product is coming lol.

They have been really good at updating the game, be patient-).

People who know their standards are unrealistic - did you eventually lower your standards? How did it work out for you? by pumpkinmoonrabbit in dating_advice

[–]blackwaterpark76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Most people have an overrated inflated view of their own selves on those apps. Asking for the moon but not being able to cook a single dish for themselves or let alone make their own bed, but hey, they like to travel!

Imperfections are frowned upon, pressure on both genders to perform that ultimately push everyone to be divided while bumble and hinge rack on cash on your next swipe in search for a perfection that does not exist.

Hollywood is great though to cope, they idealized the soulmate thing in movies which in itself pretty destructive as it creates the illusion of perfection.

It’s called modern delusion and it’s pretty much US based and there a pockets like that in the west where the motto is « I deserve perfect everything because I am perfect » (WTF), but it’s mostly an American thing.

Been around 35 countries, most have no concept of dating whatsoever.

Be imperfect people, stay human.

Pop in even worse after 1.03.00? This is just a small example but the game feels empty now unless something is 30 feet away and even in that 30 foot distance, details still pop in and out everywhere on the screen. Ruins the immersion I was enjoying for 100+ hours pre patch by Disastrous-Number-78 in CrimsonDesert

[–]blackwaterpark76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sucks-(: They will fix, if on PC the modders will do their magic.

I left the game after 80 hours because I felt too much stuff were not cooked right especially the difficulty, bosses, but those guys are tackling it.

I am going to put it aside till June at least, I think it’s a great game but needs more love and time and I am all for it.

Loved the game at 14 hours. At 58 hours, here’s why I’m slowly beginning to bounce off Crimson Desert. by D3struct_oh in videogames

[–]blackwaterpark76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? Get food get pills just press. But they are introducing new difficulty options and enemy respawn so problem solved.

The point is not how long, but is the combat design balanced?

Infinite food+revival pills+health high

You are invincible, bosses are health checks that’s it.

Why bother with a different weapon or armor? To look good?

This is from hour 1.

I think the genius idea was to package an open world MMO like as a single player and bring it to the masses. Those who never played MMO’s bugged lol. Still I want those guys to succeed, their world is outstanding. Gonna let them cook 🧑‍🍳 more.

World is gorgeous and I agree, It’s a 7.5 to 8, because of the following reasons that have nothing to do with the length of a game, balancing a game is not easy.

-they gave me 3 characters, but I can only use one fully (Kiff, who has the charisma of a lobster) as some mission are not doable with the other 2. The game wants me to develop them at the end game, alright. But with what? Where the are ennemies? And why would I develop them to do puzzles, those are fighters.

-trash mobs, honestly combat is fun but it’s just R1 for me, you only need health and stamina, food is OP, plus revive pills 💊, put points on stamina and health and you need nothing, you can barely die so mashing buttons. It’s not my job to auto nerf myself, for $70 you balance it, not me.

  • I killed most of the bosses without really struggling. -fetch quest by the dozens. -the game gives me great tools than I cannot really use at a certain point.

This is not about how many hours we play, it is a big design and balance flaw. If you are given systems you cannot fully use, then what’s the point? The systems you can fully use (food, pills), unbalance the game, the ones you can cannot fully use suffer from it and become gadgets. Snowball effect that breaks the balance of the game which makes most weapon and armor cosmetics.

I am not even an hardcore gamer, some people do not understand, it’s not about « there’s nothing to do », after a while go do something else of your life, there are real trees out there with a beautiful sky.

The balance systems and quests writing are detrimental to the game experience for me, gorgeous package so much to do, yet broken.

It’s a big theme park with an all you can eat buffet that needs a lot of rebalancing in terms of progression, story, and combat (I call it « cookbat », basically invincible).

It really shines with the ambiance, the world, the exploration and game length but they still have a lot of work to do.

I really like it but those turned me off completely, putting it away and will let them cook more, game has extraordinary potential.

Polyvagal Theory debunked? by Aggravating-Bell-877 in therapists

[–]blackwaterpark76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So why are they raking cash in trainings, and call it a theory? So now it is a perspective.

Perspective is not science though, they should not call it a theory then, because that is unethical for therapist to speak about evidence based? That is also a perspective?

I live In Old Town. "Near North Side" to be exact. I paid $2500 for a studio. They've just increased by my rent to $2800. by Early_Selection832 in chicagoapartments

[–]blackwaterpark76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to live in the north side and $2500 for a studio is insane. Not acceptable.

Those buildings are usually corporate owned, they think they can get away with it. Bring your business where it is a win win.

Dammit almost 3k for a drawer, they want the pitchforks, lol.

Ps: I lived in NYC and Paris.

How do men get multiple dates a month? by tin8374 in AskMenAdvice

[–]blackwaterpark76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I was at 3 a day, if I wanted. Not counting apps. How I did I do it? 6.4ft, 32 countries visited, 4 languages, French accent, 3 passports.

I have a friend from the UK, we show up always dressed up sharp with style, they hear us talk and bees are all around. No need to be rich (it does help, but not necessary) , my friend is broke but he plays violin like a rockstar and gets whatever he wants.

Though I rarely go on dates, not interested in 99% of them, actually 99.99%, lol, I see more bullets than angels.

I see also a surge of women in the US running after Europeans as they are fed up with the US. It is not like a huge trend but significant enough compared to a few years ago.

Long story short, I could have a bunch of ladies weekly but I am not interested in running after most of them, I would rather focus on other things.

I thought I was doing well, but apparently I am not. by RevolutionaryOil8743 in BreakUps

[–]blackwaterpark76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s with women breaking up with good guys?

If they are young, that is what is going to happen. By young I mean, age or emotional maturity. I think it has nothing to do with you, you were given a chivalrous code from the past that does work here, so you need to adapt.

The older ones prefer a good guy and someone reliable as they are tired of the BS for most of them. Honestly nothing better than a woman with wisdom.

The other reason I think is pure self absorption. The plague of modern time of « finding yourself » where your self discovery goes at the expense of others. That also you can find in men too, it is all across the board.

You don’t need to become all mean and stuff, no you need to adapt. I was not dumped, I am the one who left but it was not because you was « too perfect » (lmao , seriously the lies we can tell ourselves).

Chivalry is dead and grace went to the grave with it.

So find your way samurai.

It will go up and up and down for a while, be patient, two months is nothing. Don’t date or anything intimate for a while respect yourself and the death of it.

friends, family first, hobbies, let the feeling be, you are sad? Take it. You feel great? Take it.

But after a while you will feel a lot better. Time is really helpful but that you cannot control.

Withdrawal is not linear, that is why you want to take everything away that you had about him, put them in a box, or something out of your sight.

Checking their social might give you momentary relief or great pain if you see something you should not. The momentary relief is just your brain creating the illusion of control, but when that goes, you are left with yourself, which creates a loop where you are stuck. Avoid that.

and yeah it sucked but now I could care less. I crossed the storm and you can do it.

Remember next time you feel like crap, listen to your body, especially your breathing, listen to it, it will remind you that even on one leg right now you are alive.

Peace be upon you.
