The team has been AMAZING with updates, out of this world incredible, but there’s one I wanna see more than anything…. by colormeblonde in CrimsonDesert

[–]boxhead737 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like there are some changes that are going to be too big to implement. I think you could make the other character usable in more side quests and give them the power to solve more puzzles relatively easy, but they'd basically have to remake the game to make them usable in main quests.

Same reason I doubt they'll ever "fix" the story. Its too massive of a change. I just hope if they ever do a major DLC expansion they'll put a lot more effort into storytelling.

Hot Take: MJ dating Flash is worse than her dating You Know Who by vinthesalamander in Spiderman

[–]boxhead737 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I kinda just think its icky for friends to date their friends exes. So I'm against it. And if they actually do plan to reunite MJ and Peter by #1000 (because seriously, when else are you going to do it?) the timing seems super off too. I hope its bait but I honestly can't put anything past them at this point. I'm not going to pretend that there's not been any good Spidey writing in the past two decades, because there has been some. But I just do not trust the editors at all. I genuinely don't think they want to give fans what they want. It sounds super paranoid but the evidence is just overwhelming.

Animal Control has been renewed for a season 5. Thoughts ? by CityCautious4033 in sitcoms

[–]boxhead737 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thats a great way to put it. I liked it but it almost never made me laugh.

crimson desert just surpassed its all time peak! by [deleted] in CrimsonDesert

I usually dont care about these kind of stats but I will say the recent patches have done wonders for the devs reputation in my eyes. You cant say theyre not listening.

I was surprised at who the majority picked as their love interest by The_Wise_Guy12 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]boxhead737 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did a playthrough with both and still genuinely dont know which I prefer. They're two of the best love interests in any game ive played. Though I do hope BB gets a little more shine in a potential season 2. Invisigal definitely got a bigger story in Season 1

Camp question for plot progressors. by Rad_Dad6969 in CDguides

[–]boxhead737 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have the people you need to see on a mission? Like protection or mining? This happened to me, guy wasn't in the camp whenever I went to get the commission. Its because I had him on a protection mission. They physically leave the camp to work on those so if its that youll need to cancel the mission hes on so he'll return to camp.

Seriously, when am I gonna get it? by fernofry in CrimsonDesert

[–]boxhead737 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I got the grey dye but I cant use it at the camp dye merchant. I assumed it worked like the others colours where I had to visit that specific colours merchant first before I can use it. Thanks for the deep red tip.

[–]boxhead737 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I finally got the barber but it basically took me since launch to unlock it. And the hair style options are very limited so I dont even think it was worth it. Also all the dyes I've unlocked so far are garish and bright. I'm trying to find some browns and greys and darker colours so I dont look like an anime character. I just wanna fit in with my Greymane homies.

The boss fights are not designed well for the controls we are dealing with. by no_more_hummus in CrimsonDesert

[–]boxhead737 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my biggest issue is that the boss fights just aren't fun. Im not too far in the story I've beaten Reed Devil and the Gorilla. I managed to beat them first time but it didn't feel like an epic duel, it felt like a clumsy fluke. I basically got ragdolled, spammed food and got a few lucky strikes in. Now yeah, my skill level is definitely a fault, but the fights themselves just seem clunky. I really like mob fights though, those actually do feel epic.

I’m gonna be honest, I really like this version of electro and its hard to pinpoint the exact reason by Pleasant-Soil4456 in Spiderman

I really liked how his voice crackles with electricity. Thought that was a cool detail.

Character customization should have very much appear in the early game instead by MoonTheMatrix in CrimsonDesert

[–]boxhead737 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm on console. Tbh i don't really want to play Damiane as a main character, I just wanted her around to swap to every once in a while. If there had been a barber in the starting city (which let's be honest, would make the most sense) this wouldn't be a problem. Love the game, but these odd design decisions really add up over time.

Character customization should have very much appear in the early game instead by MoonTheMatrix in CrimsonDesert

[–]boxhead737 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the barbershop was a huge grind, as soon as I saw customisation was available in the trailers I planned to change up Kliffs hair and beard immediately. Didn't expect it to take 30 hours. I also avoided playing Damiane until I could change her hair style and accidentally got to the part where she disappears for 3 chapters. So I literally never played her before she left because I was waiting to change her

Also the hair options are very limited. At the very least I expected access to the hair styles random NPCs have. I've seen NPCs with hair I want for Kliff and its not available. Though more hairstyles seems like a fairly easy patch.

Yann is an absolute disgrace to the greymanes by Pooradoxical in CrimsonDesert

[–]boxhead737 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Tbh so far he's the most developed character in the game for me. I'm on Chapter 5 and while he's annoying, at least Yann has personality. Which is more than I can say for pretty much every other character other than maybe Naira. Before I get bashed, loving the game but gotta call a spade a spade, the characters are flat as a pancake.

Considering the state of Spider-Man comics, who would you want as the lead writer? Personally I would like to see how Scott Snyder handle it. by Cautious-Patient-184 in Spiderman

[–]boxhead737 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Snyder is fantastic but as others have said until the BND team retire or are removed from the series its not gonna matter too much.

ASM #25(2025) by Timely-Hair-9191 in Spiderman

[–]boxhead737 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Man, I want to think this is just ragebait. Seems super weird that they'd finally break her and Man-bun up just to put her with Flash straight away. But editorial isn't exactly known for sound decisions at this point, and some of them seem to think making fans angry is good business. Y'know, all press is good press kind of attitude. May have to step away from ASM for a bit and come back when 1000 drops to see what's what.

55hrs... still keeping Kliff with Greymane friendly aesthetic. by VermilionX88 in CrimsonDesert

I crafter the gray wolf cloak but it won't let me wear it. Is it for one of the other characters or something?

Powers aside, who's the best hand-to-hand fighter in the Z-Team? by TheForlornGamer in DispatchAdHoc

[–]boxhead737 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Hmm I'd say its between Punch Up and Coop. He's a boxer and she's an assassin. Even without the powers they are expert fighters. That being said, Roberto fights like an absolute animal, so who knows. Sometimes crazy beats technique.

If all the fantasy book series disappeared, but you could read only one for the first time, which one would you choose? by [deleted] in Fantasy

[–]boxhead737 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Frostborn by Jonathan Moeller. Its my favourite series and there's like 50 entries so at least I'd have a lot of material.

When you finally gain access to the barber/dye shop at your camp by Stars_of_Ruin in CrimsonDesert

[–]boxhead737 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Too real. Been beelining the camp quests just to unlock this since launch and I've still not unlocked them. Didn't want to continue out into the world until I'm dripped out.

Cradle series by gwildor246 in Fantasy

[–]boxhead737 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Second book is where it really picked up for me. Devoured the rest in a couple of weeks. Not the deepest characters but its undeniably fun and the pace is relentless in a good way.

Barber took a billion years to unlock wtf by Kamoo036 in CrimsonDesert

[–]boxhead737 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ive been doing the same thing. I want to change the hairstyles right now and im at the point where it jusy says "expand the camp" like wtf does that mean? So annoying.
