I'm thinking about quitting crimson desert

When I first started this game, I was completely engrossed and thrilled by its open-world nature and the limitless freedom it offered. The story seemed straightforward from the beginning, with a clear objective: get revenge after being defeated. I was initially excited about this premise, but as I progressed in the game, I encountered increasingly challenging puzzles that detracted from my enjoyment.

I believe my initial expectations played a significant role in this. I had imagined the game to be a fusion of The Witcher, Red Dead Redemption, and Horizon Forbidden West, which was an overly ambitious and unrealistic comparison. Consequently, I found myself resorting to YouTube walkthroughs multiple times to overcome certain obstacles, which would have left me stuck indefinitely.

Currently, I am stuck on the power generator, and I am completely clueless about how it works. I have been trying to figure it out for two weeks, but I have not found any comprehensive explanations online. I am at a point where I am ready to abandon the game due to the constant frustration it has caused me.

I wonder if anyone else shares my feelings or if I should simply persevere and try to overcome this challenge.

Btw I'm not an avid gamer, I only play games to pass time when I'm not busy with my family which is the majority of the time, I thought this game would be like red dead redemption straight forward and easy, those are generally the kind of games I play, I don't play resident evil or games that require extensive puzzling 🧐 I'm a simple guy so when you comment keep this in mind

Crimson desert is amazing

It's been a while since I played a new AAA game, the last one I really enjoyed was Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Red Dead Redemption 2 was a bit too slow for me, so I didn't quite enjoy it. Ghost of Tsushima was a lot of fun; I recently finished that one. I stopped playing Resident Evil Village because it got a little confusing for me when I reached the factory part. But Crimson Desert caught my eye right away—when I fired it up, I was blown away by the visuals. It’s like The Witcher 3 meets Red Dead Redemption 2, but even better!

Since I have ADHD, it's been a little challenging to really focus on and get into games lately, especially after I had a kid and got married. But this game has been on my mind first thing in the morning! The storyline is simple, the missions feel realistic, and I love that I don't have to travel 30 minutes just to reach a destination like I did in Red Dead Redemption 2. I've been playing this game on my AYN Portal 2 via Apollo/Moonlight streaming, using an RTX 5080, and honestly, it’s been amazing. I can game at my desk or next to my wife, which keeps me really engaged.

The fighting style is fantastic, the open world is huge, and the characters are beautiful. I’d love to hear what you all think about this game! What setup are you using and what kind of FPS are you getting? I’m running it with Cinematic DLSS 4.5 Quality, adaptive Frame Gen, and it runs super smooth. Even though Frame Gen isn’t necessary, it works really well with this game. Drop a comment below and share your thoughts and experiences!

Msi claw is king latest benchmarks from eta prime running forza horizon 6

I own all of these devices, and every time I compare them to the MSI Claw I get very similar results, which is exactly why I love the Claw. Most of the games I play are from 2016–2017, so I haven’t run into issues people mention with newer titles like Pragmata or the latest Resident Evil Village. I’m still trying to finish Red Dead Redemption 2 — that game feels endless.

If you own a Claw, you’re honestly in a good spot, especially considering they’re still selling for around $1,199. One thing I recommend is enabling Performance Mode in the BIOS. I saw about a 5–7 FPS gain in games after turning it on.

Also, check out Omni Console. It lets you boot directly into Playnite or Steam Big Picture mode and makes docked mode navigation much smoother.

Let me know what you think of the benchmarks and whether you’ve tried Omni Console yet.

6 months later and I'm still infactuated what do you like best about the claw ?

I've had the claw now going on 6 months and it continues to impress me, it's a far cry from where we first started with this device, it was bad the frame stutters were crazy, the Msi software sucked (still sucks) but fast forward to today and this handheld is unstoppable why do I say unstoppable? Because with xess 3.0 multi frame gen we can insert this into any game using optiscaler and with xe low latency we can really push the graphics and get ps5 performance on a handheld it's bonkers, I also have the one x player apex but it's a heavy device which takes away the portability factor, I mean I game mainly on the touch so it really shouldn't matter but holding it in my hand it weighs heavy on the wrist over time, but the claw is light enough it's fast enough and with the tooth and claw widget you can pretty much turn your screen into something that pops like real hdr anyway enough of me glazing, do you guys enjoy the Msi claw share your thoughts
