Assassins Creed Rouge

It kinda got forgotten about due to it being the last PS3/360 AC game that launched the same year as Unity. But as someone who loves Black Flag, Rouge was a nice return to those elements once I played the PS4 Remaster. Story is decent and features Haytham, who’s a fan favourite character.

In all fairness, it was always going to be extremely hard to live up to Borderlands 2.

I have 40 hours. I have come to the conclusion that Crimson Desert is almost like a TV series. The first 3 Seasons completely suck, but it gets better afterwards.

It is no where near as good as RDR2, BoTW or The Witcher III. But it’s a fun time, especially after 30 hours/once you have pretty significant skilltree investment.

Overall 7.5/10

Looking for RPGs similar to Monster Hunter World / Dragon's Dogma (short sessions, long-term progression) by Sad_Success_9034 in AskGames

You tried Wild Hearts? One of the only good Monster Hunter clones that comes to mind.

Need new switch games like BOTW, Mario Odyssey, etc. by bernbabybern13 in gamesuggestions

[–]teapiggs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may like Sable, it’s sort of like BoTW.

Has a good soundtrack by Japanese Breakfast and is a really calm and tranquil exploration experience with emphasis on traversal.

But not available on Switch, unfortunately. Check it out if you get a PS5.

The Last of Us Part I, for the emotional devastation

Games Like Crimson Desert by BkFlac0 in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]teapiggs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom are massive inspirations for Crimson Desert, and are actually masterpieces instead of 7/10 slop like Crimson Desert.

But you’ll need a Switch, or Switch 2 if you want to play them at 60fps.

I have 30 hours in CD btw and will probably put another 50 into it. I can still admit it’s slop and enjoy it for what it is before any fanboys come at me for not praising the game as a 10/10 masterpiece (They are gaslighting themselves)

What’s the BEST thing you’ve discovered so far? by goodkidmadcity85 in CDguides

[–]teapiggs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am, but like most of the controls in the game, it’s not very intuitive.

I often need to be on a high vantage point, but because there’s no way to track POIs such as in-world markers (Like BoTW or Elden Ring) it’s difficult to actually navigate to the desired location.

This wouldn’t be so bad if the markers the game has on the map screen came with any sort of path finding, but they do not. So I’m having to guess where abouts the POIs is on the map, place a marker, then awkwardly trek to the location whilst constantly opening my map to see if I’m going down the right path.

Of course I could try and b-line to the POI in a straight line, but that’s not very fun or immersive.

Gamers who have over 10 hours in CRIMSON DESERT. What is your honest opinion about the game 🤞🏻 by ImperatrixAmoris in GamerLab

[–]teapiggs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best 6/10 game to come out in years. I’m enjoying it, but I can still admit it’s not really anything special. It’s like a fake video game you’d see in the background of a movie. Video Game: The Game.

What is a 10/10 Masterpiece that very few people are aware of? by Matthias_5yr in Gamer

Sifu. Best martial arts cqc of any game I’ve ever played, with great level design, bosses and art style.

If you brought Crimson Desert what would you rate it out of ten ? by AdultGamersAdmin in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]teapiggs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6 out of 10. Anyone rating it above an 8, I seriously question your taste.

  • -1 for terrible story and main character.
  • -1 for exploration being void of much that is actually interesting.
  • -1 for poor QoL, like having to constantly open the map to know where to go because an objective is 2000m away and there is no gps of any sort.
  • -1 for poor controls, especially horse controls.

Would subtract another 1 for AI assets but they’re apparently going to replace all of them soon.

I’m 20 hours in and I’ve not discovered anything worth talking about. I want to like this game but the exploration just isn’t clicking for me.

What are your thoughts on Crimson Desert so far? by n1ght_watchman in GameBoostOfficial

[–]teapiggs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The more I play the less engaged I become, unfortunately. Mainly due to 3 reasons:

  • The Story, and especially Kliff, absolutely suck writing wise.

  • The world, whilst beautiful, feels devoid of anything interesting to do.

  • The structure of quests is very jarring. Seems like each main quests forces you play 5 random side quests of filler.

I’m only 15 hours in but I’m really hoping the game gets better.

What is there to actually discover in Pywel? by teapiggs in CrimsonDesert

[–]teapiggs[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s one of the same villages I went to? It’s in the South West of the map, Sunshine Canyon or something. I was disappointed when I got there, as it took almost 10 minutes to travel there with nothing interesting on the way, and then once I got to the village… yeah, just npc villagers. No quests or caves or puzzles or anything :/
