    there's this character in #CrimsonDesert called Yann. he's one of your comrades and there are several quests given by him, and he really reminds me so much of someone I used to know, and not in a good way

    see, Yann is always dreaming of his next bullshit scheme to make it big, but the trouble is Yann is a complete pisshead and he keeps dragging Kliff into all the trouble he starts, then running away and leaving Kliff to clear up the mess. he starts fights when blackout drunk, loses all his money gambling and expects Kliff to win it back for him, buying trade goods and expecting Kliff to drive a wagon half way across the map through hostile territory

    just like someone called Matty I used to know, until I realised one day that these are the kind of "friends" you can really do without. hopefully Kliff will come to the same conclusion eventually

    I think the writing in this game is excellent, btw. the main story is kinda incoherent, but all the little side stories are really rather good imo

      @COMPU73E I hate the Yann quests because you know he is going to dump you into a pain in the butt situation. Got to be one of the most annoying characters in video gaming ever.

        @Dorian_H oh I don't hate him! I hope he has some sort of redemption arc where he sobers up and sorts himself out (doubtful) it's kind funny how none of his schemes ever work out but he just keeps on bullshitting his way through life

        just like the guy I used to know

          just like some micromanaging twat at work, I have to go and check up on every construction project the Greymanes take on in #CrimsonDesert now, gotta make sure my guys aren't slacking off!

          after saving the town of Vellua from a pirate attack, which was an epic streetfight through the town during a thunderstorm, culminating in a mad boss fight against the pirate leader (his armor had a fish helmet) we were asked to rebuild the town lighthouse

          here it is at various stages of construction. when it was done I celebrated with a spot of fishing

            I did a section in #CrimsonDesert last night that was like playing a musou game. a castle siege that culminated in an epic boss fight. charging through a battlefield with hundreds of enemies on screen, explosions from cannon fire all around, buildings collapsing, panicked horses

            this game continues to amaze

              Musou?!?!?!?

              Stop tempting me to buy this game aaaaaaaaaaaaargggggg!!!!! πŸ˜†

              I just did 3 big orders at Play Asia as my card rolled over to the month where I get my vacation bonus, and might have ordered a few more things on top of that. 😁

                They are doing a 2 games from 2026 for $80 which is just insane, so I grabbed the upcoming Cotton Rock With You on Switch 2 and Blue Reflection Quartet on Switch 1.

                Just a moment...

                  @outofprintarchive Skill Up's review touched on the musou elements, it's not the whole game but their engine is perfectly capable of throwing around hundred of enemies. the section I did last night was amazing

                  I strongly recommend: Crimson Desert

                    @COMPU73E

                    I'd love to get it but right now I'm not quite in the mindset to get lost in such a massively sprawling game.

                    I'm mostly playing puzzle games, a bit of racing and some action games like Gundam Breaker and musou games right now and just flipping between them.
                    Thinking of going back to Toukiden as well, as I adored those games but never finished them as I always have way too much to play.

                      @COMPU73E you need to hire some middle-management types to do the checking up, then you need to hire some directors to check on the middle managers, then you need to hire some VPs to check on the directors, then c-suite, then a board of directors, and so on. only then will you be satisfied knowing that actual work is getting done.

                                      @COMPU73E Indeed. And the side quest content is incredibly robust as well. It’s so easy to get lost in them accidentally while taking the slightest detour. It almost feels like Skyrim in that way.

                                        managed to tame the Legendary white horse Royler, took several attempts because the horse taming minigame is total bullshit, but I got it eventually!

                                        fastest horse in the game apparently, forgot to take a screenshot but I'll do that tomorrow, it's a cool looking horse

                                        now to level it up!
