Windrose is genuinely cool
Chapters9
The streamer prepares the ship, upgrades gear, and outfits the crew, highlighting the early focus on getting a capable vessel ready for sailing and combat.
Windrose on Asmongold TV delivers a chaotic, wood-farming pirate run where upgrading gear, mastering ship combat, and quick travel turn the voyage into a confident if chaotic breeze.
Summary
Asmongold dives back into Windrose, showing off a long, enthusiastic mid-game session where he’s locked in a fully upgraded ship, cannons, and armor. He describes farming wood by sailing the seas and upgrading every piece of gear, then proves combat mettle by boarding and defeating multiple pirate ships in quick succession. The stream highlights key mechanics like building a warf, transporting crew, customizing the ship’s look, and using a bell for fast travel between Tortuga and other islands. He debates MMO versus solo play, explores quest progression, and plays with the tension between risk and reward as he chases insignias to unlock better equipment. Throughout, Asmongold emphasizes that the game feels substantial, with a surprising amount of depth and authentic pirate vibes, even as he jokes about “big dick food” and the occasional on-stream chaos. He also riffs about other games (Crimson Desert, Dragon’s Dogma) to frame Windrose’s combat rhythm and exploration, while preparing for future streams and further upgrades. The vibe is energetic, candid, and unfiltered, with practical tips for navigation, boarding, and inventory management sprinkled in. Overall, the takeaway is that Windrose delivers engaging ship-to-ship combat, meaningful progression, and a surprisingly rich pirate sandbox feel—just don’t expect a perfectly polished UI from day one.
Key Takeaways
- Fully upgraded ship and armor lead to decisive combat; the player demonstrates boarding pirates and looting combat rewards like combat repair kits and provisions.
- Wood farming is effectively done by sailing alongside trees and harvesting materials on the move, reducing the need for constant inventory micromanagement.
- Fast travel and a shipyard upgrade system (including building warfs and managing hull/cannons) streamline exploration and allow quicker progression between Tortuga and other archipelagos.
- Insignias (Deckhand, Veteran, Old Salt) serve as reputation-based currency to unlock better gear from vendors, encouraging exploration and repeated skirmishes rather than pure farming.
- The game supports solo play with optional group co-op, and players can build fleets and manage multiple ships, though core progression remains tied to quest completion and ship upgrades.
- Asmongold compares Windrose with other titles (Crimson Desert, Dragon’s Dogma) to contextualize its combat pacing and open-world exploration, while noting the game’s depth and potential for growth.
- Inventory management is a recurring topic, with the streamer joking about “putting problems in the problem box” and using chests to organize loot.
Who Is This For?
Essential viewing for players who want to see Windrose in action: a high-energy, no-nonsense playthrough that covers ship combat, progression systems, and exploration in a semi-MMO pirate sandbox.

It's just a matter of lack of accountability. It's actually very easy to control people like that. You just have to you have to speak in a language they understand. And they don't understand logic and reason. I'm glad you're enjoying the game. Yeah, it's really really good. You got a name for the ship? Don't they have the ship's name?

You grinded? Yeah. I just I just walked around. I made my other [ __ ] I got everything good to go. So, we got this ready. And I got the my healing potions. I've got my two foods here. I've got 10.

All right. I think everything else should be good. I already made my my pack, so it's not that necessary.
And let me think about this. Okay. What game is this? It's called Windows. So now, what do I have to do now? Revenge is best served cold. All right. Let me track this quest. There's my ship right there. Full crew. Is it MMO or solo? You can play it as a group. Yeah, you can play as a group. And I want to make sure I get my my thing locked in. Okay. So, I've got maximum hull and then I also have maximum uh this cannons. Maximum boardy party gear. Oh, uh you can manage gear while close to the wararf.
Close to the wararf. Wait, what? What do you mean? close to the warp. How do I do that? It's Oh, it's a structure. Wait, what? Oh, I got to build one of these. Okay. Okay. Give me a minute. So, I got to get fabric and I have to get uh wood. Let me lock that in. I didn't know that. That's easy to do. It's not a big deal. We'll just get that real quick and then we'll be able to go out and sail. Okay. And where's my wood? Wood. Where do the wood be? Uh, I know I needed the cloth, so I'm going to just take that right now, too.
Where is the There is the wood. Okay, good. Ooh, bananas. We need those. We lag. It's not lagging. What do you mean? I mean lag. Like you got to fix your [ __ ] computer. Okay, so now now we can build the warb. And we're going to put it like right here. Oh yeah, that's perfect. Okay. So, now I'm going to manage my ship and we're going to do this. We're going to do the cannons. Oh [ __ ] I completed a quest. Customize. Oh, I can customize my ship. Oh [ __ ] Oh, dude. Damn. Okay. Long dick. All right.
And we got this. Okay. We're good. Shipyard. Wait, what the hell is this? Hit points. Oh, I can make other ships. But it seems like they're all kind of the same. Yeah. Yeah, it seems like they're about the same. I'm not going to worry about that too much. No way. Damn, we really out here. Okay, let's go. And let me climb aboard and Okay, so I've got my ship set up. I don't know what that's for yet. It's not a big deal. I have my combat repair. I made combat repair kits, too. And okay, the adventure.
All right. What's the next thing I need to do? How my sea adventure began. Oh, I have to I have to kill a ship. All right. Captain, what the hell? It's right over there. Okay, we're out for Mobile Town with a ho and we'll beat their ass and damn we get a boat. That's perfect. All right. Where's this boat? Southho. So, I can use the bolis or the cannons. We'll see how this works. Where's the crew? I rescued them. I rescued them yesterday. And this is the first voyage of the ship. the first actual like combat voyage.
Actual pirate game. Yes, it is. It's an actual pirate game. So, where is this? Okay, we're about halfway there. I don't know how to beat these ships, though. I don't know how any of this works. I'm a little bit nervous. We got the chain cannons. Yeah, that's probably what I should do, right? I I should go after the mass and then attack them from an angle. I feel like that's the good idea. It's the life full of women. Um, sorry. I think let's start off with the bolises. Oh [ __ ] Okay. All right. I got to stay focused.
How do I attack? How do I attack? Wait, how do how do I attack? Ready on the guns. I see. I See, it's left. [ __ ] Okay. Lead up speed. Jesus, I'm getting destroyed. Got it. I missed. I missed.

Prepare to board. Prepare to board. Let's do it. [ __ ] this. [ __ ] this. I'm going in. Oh, this guy's getting [ __ ] Look at my damage. I'm actually out of control. They can't stop me. Jesus. 10,000. I kill all of them. Good. No survivors. Kill every single one. Return to your ship. Taking the helm will end the boarding. So, we just beat their ass like that. That was nothing. We're actually gods. So, what do we get? What do we get? The ship's under your hand, captain. Ship spoils. Three deckhand insignas. I got a combat repair kit, and I got provisions.
Okay, so now I need to get my ship's health back, right? So, how do I do that? Okay. Um, how do I do that? Let me look around and see how this works. Cuz I obviously don't want to use my combat repair kit yet, right? Okay. Okay. I'm going to use the panel right now. Okay. Oh, now it's healing. Oh, it's What a loser. What a little loser, [ __ ] Damn. Go back to the the wararf and repair. I don't need to. I don't need to, guys. I got to go to Tortugo. Oh [ __ ] It's all the Oh my god.
Okay. Well, I should do Okay. Well, we should do this one first, right? Like I don't even know which one to do first. Let me do Let's go to here. Open journal. Let me see what it says. Find the four black marks. The bitter pill. Infiltrate his camp. But I have to go to Tortuga. That's the That's the big thing. Head to the Tortuga market. Okay. Well, I guess let's do this one first. Okay, because Oh, oops. Um, this is dist This is why you don't do distracted driving, guys. Okay, so we've got to go to there first.
And the reason why is because that's on the way over. Let's go. Oh, do I do that? Come on. And now we're going to go to Tortugo is like Pirate Isle, right? I think it is. We're going to find out. Heal [ __ ] more with five. Wait, I thought it healed 40%. Okay, I guess I'll do one more. Oh, it probably took damage. Oh, no. I know. That's what happened. It took damage. No. No. I I I already It's a Somali navy. Uh, no. Of course not.Where everywhere. Oh, man. So, we got to go all the way over to there and then after that, what we're going to do, too, is I have a uh I have a a [ __ ] bell, and so I can use the bell and I can teleport back and forth.
That's going to help a lot. Your boat's a daycare more than a Navy ship. So you can loot these little things. Let me see what this is. Look at this. It says it's green. Let's see what this is. Isn't it crazy? Like I I really feel like I mean you think about the guys that were like pirates back then probably massive [ __ ] Like I I would imagine Like I would imagine in order to be a pirate, you'd have to be a massive [ __ ] Especially like if you're trying to run a boat and there's like 30 other dudes on the same boat.
Oh man, that would drive me [ __ ] crazy. Massive [ __ ] Yeah. Can you play offline? Oh, I think so. Yeah. I'm pretty sure all these games you can play offline. I don't know why you wouldn't be able to. Like there's no like there's no like mechanic for that otherwise. should be fine. It was [ __ ] up back then. Yeah, I guess so. Oh, is this here? Most pirates were slaves or criminals. Is that true? Yeah. I don't even know that they push people off the planks. Well, the thing is that like you had to push people off the planks.
Can you imagine how [ __ ] annoying it would be if you're supposed to run a ship? And the thing is like I bet I mean it's all guys on the ship, right? I mean there's probably like one woman maybe, probably not. And so there's nobody else on the [ __ ] ship except for a bunch of [ __ ] guys. And yeah, obviously you're going to have to throw somebody off if they're if they're causing problems, if they're being annoying. I I mean, yeah, you got to throw them off the boat. Ooh, I got more nails. Honestly, this is a really good wood farming strategy.
I just sail around. I got free wood. I honestly like I also think that like my I'm sad that I didn't do better on that fight. I I feel like I should have performed a lot better against that boat. I think the mistake I'm making is that I'm moving too fast. There's no way. that's that there's there's no way you're going to get smoked. Yeah. I I I think I think we need to avoid them. It's You're upgraded. It's fine. I don't think that's fine, guys. You're going to get Blackbearded. I'm not. I I've got I've got to be really careful right now.
You're not ready. Trust me. Yeah. I'm also not I'm like even if I'm even if I was gear capped, I'm not skill capped. Like I still don't really know what I'm doing and I'm afraid of that. Did you upgrade the guns and the armor for the ship? All the way. Everything is fully upgraded. So, I should be in a very good position. But, we'll see if that's going to be enough. So, on easy mode, you'll be fine. I put it on normal. Like, I I I don't mind playing games on hard mode. I actually prefer that.
But whenever hard mode is just a sliding scale, I feel like it's not really as exciting. But I do feel like also another thing is that in a lot of games, I don't know if you guys ever get this vibe where it's like in a lot of video games, unless you're playing on hard mode, you're not really playing the game. You're just like basically walking around and using one button and killing everything. And I do feel like that's a little bit kind of lame. A beta. Yeah. And and like I've noticed this with a lot of games where it's like one thing I especially noticed it with is with like turnbased games like and having extra it you know like a lot of turn-based games they give you like extra flavor items you know it's like you can throw like a candle and it does more damage that level of like complexity you don't really ever hit that level of complexity unless you're playing at the at the hardest difficulty and like even then there are like other ways is to like avoid it.
That one's Can I Is there a way to save? I mean, guys, big dick. Big dick. Let's do it. Let's [ __ ] do it. I can do this. I'm that guy. Sec. I've got it. I've got it. I got it. I've got it. I got it. He's so dead. Oh, this dick sucker is done. Oh, he's so done. Word of water. Word of water. Word of water. Bro, he's using the water as a wall. Oh my god. Oh. Oh. Are we good? Okay, we're good. Wait a minute. Hit him. That's a little bit. Not enough. Wait a minute.
Oh. Oh, they're dis. They're reenabled. They're reenabled. I'm going to take them out. taking him out right now. Okay, she All right. Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it. That's fine. That's fine. Mistakes happen. Got it. That's huge. Okay, one more side attack and then we're going to go to the front. Actually, we'll just do a front right Oh. Oh, a bonus barrel. Wait, I can board it now. Here we go. Yes. Yes. Ready to go. Let's go. Let's go. I'm going in. Okay. Where's my boys? Where's my boys? I had to parry. Okay.
All right. These guys are really high high level. I can barely survive. Okay. Another one dead. [ __ ] dude. Okay, I know what to do. I know what to do. Oh, yeah. Get the [ __ ] out of here. No survivors. No [ __ ] survivors. Don't kill them all. Wait, why not? It's fun to kill. Why? I don't want to do that. That was great. Beat the [ __ ] out of him. That was a level five boat. Not the hell. The International Law Police. No. Damn. That [ __ ] was easy. Look at that. The ship is sinking. That's right. Level five crew.
Wait, there's a crew that I can do. Wait a minute. Ship management. I don't see anything for a crew. Ship cargo. Character action panel. I'm not seeing anything about a crew. So, is this PvP? I'm sure there will be. Okay, let me go back. All right, we got to go this way. Time to go hard mode. Um, it it only makes them have more health. And I probably will turn it to hard mode, actually. You can get more crew when you take a Okay. From ne next time that I kill these guys, I'm not going to I'm not going to do that.
Okay. And I will uh I'm not going to kill them. I mean Okay. That Okay. I'm very afraid at this point. Let me let me heal up again. Those are only level twos, but like I don't know how the levels work. Have you experienced any lag while on the water? None. I haven't had any problems at all with the game, actually. You smoke to level five. You got this. Yeah, but like what am I going to get out of it, right? I mean, like that's that's three gunboats. I mean, let me I've got to focus on my quest.
Like that that's my my main goal I should be doing is my quest because I haven't done that at all. Like I've just been going around, you know, pirating [ __ ] This boat's got a lot of health, though. Oh, damn. Got to get to Tortuga. Yeah, that's my plan. I'm going to get to Tortuga now. Give your first impression of the game. The other pirate games you played. What other pirate game have I played? Have I played a lot of other pirate games? I feel like I kind of haven't. Like, I'm trying to think like what other pirate games did I really get into?
Yakuza. That's true. I played Yakuza pirate game. I think that this game is the pirate combat in that game. The thing is that Yakuza it's there is so much in that game. There's so much going on with that game that the pirate combat itself was like it was good. It was very good, but I didn't like how the at the end game it was about doing it quickly rather than fighting really hard ships. I I like the idea of like fighting very very difficult and like powerful like gallions or something rather than like doing like really fast like speed kills.
That was like at the very end of the uh like I played the entire thing. Black Flag nailed it. See, everybody tells me that, but I've never played Black Flag. I kind of want to get that. Do you guys think I can get that without aggroing these ships? Let's find out. That's like It's like yellow. Oh, it's like legendary or something, right? Whiskey master combat repair kit. That seems really good. That seems Oh [ __ ] Okay, we've made it. All right, this is the quest I need to turn into. Ubisoft is making remaking Black Flag. I would expect it to be worse.
Wait, what the hell is this? Buccaneer Waters. What the [ __ ] Okay, I'm going to try and sail around these guys. I don't want to have to deal with another fight. I think this is going to be okay, right? Cuz I know some of them are friendly, some of them are not friendly. I just don't know what to expect from this. Okay, there we go. And I don't think I need food, right? Like I feel like I should be good to just go in here. Are there any bad guys? I'm actually, you know what? I'm kind of afraid because like if I do die I like my respawn point's really far away so I can't afford a mistake ourselves a good shot.
Okay. What is this? Bullseye from 200. A buyer. It's like a whole matter more than coin. Looking around. Just looking around here. Okay. Reason for that. 50 bags. Oh, wow. Okay. I'm going to make sure there's nothing else I need to do. Well, I'm level four now. Okay. So, what happens if I talk to everything you need for a good master's tools? What does this do? It doesn't even say what it does. Merchant contract animal products. I wonder if this is useful for me. So these are like gold coins. Holy [ __ ] Look at all this tempered 24.
Wait devastating 36 pounders. Well, what are mine? The That's way better than mine. Holy Okay. Hey, I didn't know that. Bores don't like to remember their friends. Okay, so I can turn this in and get reputation. Not enough items. Deckhand insignia. And then I get a veteran insignia. And then I get an old salt insignia. Okay, so what I should probably do now, you should have seen the bar I brought down. Okay, so this is like a it's like a reputation vendor. And oh, there's one more guy I didn't talk to. the deal. Dodo head, spirits, munitions.
Okay, well these I don't think I really need a lot of that yet. So, should I make my fast travel point here? I feel like this is a really good place to do a fast travel. Yes. Yeah, I'm starting to feel that way, too. Okay, you sell those. All right, let me go ahead and do that. So, uh All right. No, there is one. There isn't one. I How can I fast travel to this? Oh, wait a minute. So, there's one that's built in there. I'm trying to figure this out. fast travel campfire. Fast travel is available.
And I can just literally click this and I can go back, right? I should be able to go back, right? I think so. Yes. Okay, good. I I don't know why. I probably should have set one up myself, but that's okay. All right, so I need to get all those insignas then, right? Seems like that's the the best idea. Okay, dickhand insignia. And look around, make sure I'm not missing any more of these. Okay, I've got a bunch of those. all right, that should be everything. So, let me go back. I'm going to turn this in.
Some YouTube finally crossed over. Yeah, it's it's very like I I do like this game a lot. I think it's a very very good game. Every 15 minutes, doctor gives you health potions. Yeah, I need to do that more. Okay, so now I teleport all the way back over. Oh, that's OP as [ __ ] Yeah, that's really good. So now I can just talk to her and just sell all of these, right? Like I I can't see anything else that I'm I would use. Oh, damn. This is going to take a while. Today's a good day.
Let me check my my ship inventory, too, cuz I just killed two ships. Take six and a blue chip. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. You can also teleport from your ship's wheel. I didn't know that. Yeah. Like a lot of this stuff I'm just I'm still trying to like learn everything, you know, in the game. The game is pretty complex. Like it's it's more complex than than you would imagine. Okay. And let me look over here. Ship management. Okay. So, I'm going to take these insignas. I'm going to get rid of them. And I probably should move the wood around, but I'm not going to worry about it right now.
So, let's just take these insignas and turn them in right now. I mean, there's nothing else I'm really going to do. I'm thinking like, should I go after the three ships right now or should I go to Tortuga? What do you guys think? Like, you think I'd go to Tortugo? Let's [ __ ] do it. And if I see a ship on the way over that's like a gold ship, we kill it. The pirates build. I think that's the best option. Don't think too hard, friend. Let's see what you've brought. Okay, 28. So, I I'm I will get to uh I I will get to the next level soon, Tortugo.
Okay, got it. You'll find ships on the way. Yeah, that's kind of what I'm thinking, too. You're right about that. You don't need to board every ship. Only the ones with the chest. Oh, really? Okay. So, then we Well, wait a minute. So the other ships I just literally just kill them. Nice. Great. I can do that. Easy. helm's yours, captain. Let me move this out. And now we have to go all the way over to Tortuga. Okay. I I'm kind of afraid to go that way. So, let's try to go this way instead. I'm going to try and circle around here and go around the uh around the little island.
Can you have a fleet? I mean, I wonder if you could do that because like So, yeah. Can people in in in like PV uh in like no PvP uh in co-op, can people like each individual person has their own ship? Are they able to do that? Oh, let me actually make sure I'm tracking this. Yes. So, you actually can have a fleet of ships. That's nuts. So, it hasn't hasn't been done. Pirates of the Caribbean chosen 23. I feel like Pirates of the Caribbean set like a really high standard for pirate movies. like it's going to be really hard for like a like I watched Black Sails with my dad like uh I think it was like the first I know we watched the first season.
I think we watched some of the second season. I don't remember but it was really good. I I like that that show a lot. And I'm trying to think besides that like uh you know I haven't really watched a lot of other pirate stuff like I don't know if they've done like a pirate movie any anytime soon. I I do feel like Pirates of the Caribbean when it came out, it was like the best [ __ ] movie. I love that movie. What about Pirates? I don't even know what that is. So, probably I guess I didn't, right?
Uh yeah, I would say probably not in that case. Johnny Depp is a go pirate. Well, he's just a really good actor, right? I mean, like it's what I've said before. It's like if you have really good actors in a movie, the movie is going to be good. It doesn't really matter what the premise is unless like the story is just like awful or something like that. But most of the time whenever you see a bunch of like really good actors like you're going to have a really good movie amazing show but the ending was so lame.
See I never got to the ending so I I I yeah seemed amazing to me. Seemed great. Goat actor and allegation defeated. I mean there's a lot of people I mean again like whenever you're like a well-known guy and everything like something like that can happen. I mean, it's it's uncommon that like people get allegations that are like [ __ ] but at the same time, it it it can happen. And sometimes it does happen. It's like one of the reasons why Oh, you know what I didn't do? I didn't level up my character. Okay. And I'm thinking that we put more points into stamina.
I I am I think stamina is by far the best decision and talents. So, I don't know what I'm going to do with my talents, but I think we're going to do this over here. It seems like the best option. And like some of these points up here, like this is like life steal, which is really good, but I don't think we're going to go with that right now. That be hear the shanties. Yay, boys. They're taking you away. Dragon's Dogma got a Steam update of 70 GB, guys. Guys, don't don't get excited. Don't get excit There's not going to be Dragons Dogma 2 DLC.
It's the the guy that I mean, I I don't I don't see it. I don't see it happening. From 28. I don't believe it, man. I want to see it. I love the game. Like if if the DLC gets announced, I'm going to level my character up to every stats maxed out. Like half of mine are maxed out. They're like yellow. Like whenever they're yellow, they're like maxed out totally. And uh I'm going to get everything totally maxed out. That way I can replace it within like 5 seconds of uh the DLC. You know, Matt Walsh featured in your newest video four years ago or four hours ago about dating.
No, I didn't know that. Good for him. Is the game worth getting um I think it is like I I like the game. Yeah, I do like the game. Finished Crimson Desert. I did I finished Crimson Desert. Like this is my new This is my new game that I'm playing Like after this like I don't know what I'm going to play honestly. Oh, I do actually. Pragmata uh that comes out on Friday. So, I'm probably going to play that, which is like literally in two days. It's always weird to think about like I don't know if you guys ever get like this same like here, I've got to mute this so it doesn't distract me.
I apologize. Do you guys ever get like the same vibe where it's like it's weird whenever you think about like like Elden Ring for example? Like whenever I I remember the first trailer I saw and then like eventually it finally actually comes out. I don't know why. It's just like a weird a weird thing, right? And uh yeah, it's like what about Resident Evil 4 remake? Well, I I'll play it whenever there's downtime, right? I mean, it the game came out last year, right? So, it's not like I have to play it immediately. So, I'm just going to wait until I have time left over and then I'm going to play the game mod at you.
Really? You guys think it's going to suck? I don't think it's going to suck. Maybe it does. Maybe it sucks, but I'm not planning for it to suck. Most Sony firstparty, you know, uh I think it's made by like a Japanese studio. Most of those types of games are good. I don't think it's going to be like insanely good. It's not going to be probably game of the year good, but it's probably going to be a decent game. The demo was good. See, I didn't play the demo. Capcom's making it. Yeah, Capcom makes pretty good games.
like their worst games were still really good, which like the two like I would say that Monster Hunter Wilds had like a really mixed reception and also Dragon Stma 2 had a very mixed reception. So, you know, it's like one of those like weird kind of like is this really a good situation or not? But, uh yeah, Sony slops are good most of the time. Yeah, it's just Sony slop. You know, it's fine. Need a Mega Man remake. I think they should do a Mega Man remake the same way that they did if they're not going to do another sidescroller, which I think they should do this also.
I think they should do it like Metroid Prime. Do it like Metroid Prime or like kind of like Ratchet and Clank, but more like Metroid Prime. Mouse PI will be a good game. It's like Doom and Looney Tunes mix. Yeah, I remember seeing that. Okay, we're almost at Tortuga. They announced Mega Man at the Game Awards. Yeah, but it was like another The thing is that and this is kind of the issue is that like what is Mega Man now going to be able to do that every other every other one of those games already doesn't do.
You see what I'm saying? So, it's like the the uniqueness to it, I think, has kind of been encroached on. So, like I'm going to play it for sure, right? I'm going to play the game like 100%. It's the same as Castlevania. Like, but I would I I mean this is like my dream. Okay. My dream is that From Software makes the new Legend of Zelda or the new Castlevania. That's what I want to see. I want to see that. That would be the greatest game of all time. Especially Legend of Zelda. But if they made a Castlevania, that would be [ __ ] insane.
A dream. Yeah, I know. It's never happening. Yeah, I know. I I know. I know it's never going to happen, but I I want it to happen. Play Harard again. I don't know about the uh remember the game Capcom canceled looked at Dark Souls with Mass Effect controls. No, I don't remember that at all, actually. Yeah, I forgot. Unshrouded 1.0 this year. You think you play it? I actually reinstalled Unshrouded. Uh yeah. So, yes, the answer is yes, I will be playing like I I play a lot of video games. Like I I I really like playing video games.
Like a lot of other people like they have like different hobbies for, you know, like they like, you know, going to the movies or, you know, like Funko Pops or like card games. Like I I I really just like video. I love video games. And so like most of my free time that I spend is spent playing video games. Like overwhelmingly it's spent playing video games. Remember Starcraft Ghost getting cancelled? Yeah. In like the 2000s. I remember that very well. Like it was in like every [ __ ] gaming magazine, too. You gave up on WoW Midnight.
I didn't really give up on WoW Midnight. I just wanted to do something different. And also like the problem is that WoW hasn't really evolved in a way that I think is unique. Like I'm basically I feel like every patch of WoW is just playing Legion again. Like you're just you're you're playing the Legion formula again. And I just I did it a lot, man. I did it for years. So, and it's also like you're you're kind of like you're building a castle on sand because you make your character really good and it's like super OP and everything and then after that you immediately have the patch come out and now you're back down to ground zero.
Okay. Um, so now we are at what? What? Go to the right. Is this the f Is this that flat earth thing they keep talking about? What the hell is this? Wait, what's this? What's this? What's This looks like it's something. Okay, I'm going to try and stop it so I don't. That was close. All right, we made it. um, I made it. We at Tortuga. Fast travel activated. Okay, there's another fast travel point here. That's super super effective. So, let me go to like this castle thing first. How my sea adventure began. What the [ __ ] is this?
Steal that ship. I don't think you can do that. That's a nice ship, though. Let me see if I Wait, this sh This is Wait, that's one ship. It doesn't let me get in it. Thing's [ __ ] massive. Look at that. So, I I I just want to get in this just like real quick if I can just get in this boat. The dreadnot. Yeah, dude. That's massive. That's I I'm pretty sure the like little thing like I don't know what the little pointy thing is from like here to here. I'm pretty sure that's longer than my ship Let me go try to turn in this quest and see what it says.
Someone in chat says it's the English Navy's last ship. It's not because it's operational. See? And it's too big. Okay, Roselina. I'll work for you if the pay is good. Waiting for anyone else. Higher peace. Higher. Oh, higher price. doubles clay bottle production. 30% chance to craft an extra elixir. I don't want that. And I have to pay her $500. Where do you get slaves? I don't like this having to pay them thing. My fate is serious. Is there a way you can just kind of get them for free? You ever seen the plague? Are there any free people around?
I'm looking for free people. branches and har their heads. Can I go inside? Damn. We made it. They're making some kind of noise. Hear that? Well, they're probably asking for a run. Long poison. Okay, good to see you. Uh, there's some interesting patterns. Segus Gakus Gallen. Okay. Who rules the dead now? He ordered them to crawl out of the sea and attack the city. Survivors cleared out a nearby island. They've got nothing left to lose. What can I do for you? Someone already wrecked the smuggler's cash. One of his letter for Henry out of the C4.
Okay. I appreciate your help. Okay. I'll talk to her. Okay. All right. So, I just did that and damn. Can we have a paint? I'm still the best. Can I go through this when sober? Holy [ __ ] So, it's an entire little uh pirate area. That is cool. So, what do I do now? Who do I need to talk to? Oh, this is the woman I need to go talk to. Should I go after and do this, though? Blackbeard crews first map. I don't know if I'm ready for that. Like, am I am I man enough to go do the main story quest right now?
Like, I I don't know. I'm kind of nervous about it. X marks the That's true. X does mark the spot. It's just an empty island. [ __ ] it. I'm going to I'm going to go over there. I am. I'm going to go over there. I'm going to see what happens. You fought the good fight. Oh [ __ ] So these are multiple reputations. Strong hands. Ship design frig. So this is the mega ship. This is the big dick ship. $3,000 and I only have $140 crafting quality cannons and ship equipment. Damn, I got to get my money up.
Yeah, we got to farm there. That's a lot of farming. Honestly, that's going to take me like probably two two or three days. We need more money. Yeah, I'm going to try to go over there. I am. [ __ ] it. We'll see what happens. Like, I've already got my I've got my rested buff. I got So, the game has like you know how Valheim got the hell? Wait a second. Let me let me focus here for a second. All right. So, I need to go out and then uh you know how Valheim Thank you very much for the 25 subs.
I appreciate it, man. Thank you. You know how Valheim had like the comfort mechanic? Well, this game has the same mechanic. That's what I was trying to say. I have to like parallel park my my ship out of here. Tip for farming wood. Drive along side trees and blast the side trees. That's actually really funny. I should do that. I feel like the fact that if I can sail around and just collect wood by sailing around, I'm never going to have to worry about wood again. Like realistically, it's just never going to happen. Oh, that's a yellow.
Like, I don't know. Maybe that's not true. I'm not sure cuz already I feel like I'm getting kind of overwhelmed with how much wood I have. I'm going to chip and raft. I'm also at 200 wood from doing that. So, yeah, you're right. Yeah, like each one of these I Oh, this is a really big one, too. Lost boat. I got coffee beans, 15 wooden planks. That's actually insane. So, I've got to find I I got to find a way to make like the biggest boat. I think I should focus on the attachments first because the attachments will scale like um like they'll scale linearly.
And if I'm actually just get if I'm only getting upgrades for the boat, then I'm just waiting for like one really really really big upgrade, which is fine, but I don't think that's the best way to farm. the same boat you found in the beach and repaired. Yes, it is. This is the exact same boat. It's called the uh it's the SS Long Dick. Do all the main sets. I want to see you get mob not winning. It's more fun to watch. Yeah, right. Like I I actually I'm going to be honest. I hate whenever I'm playing a game and I'm struggling.
I hate dealing with it. Like I'm fine with a little bit of like annoyance, but like whenever I'm stuck on something, I like my tolerance level for that is like super super low. Like I feel like I just do not [ __ ] I I everyone does. Well, for me it's like I see other people that they deal with it like now that I I I stream, right? And like I I I try to look at it from the perspective of like, well, this is just entertainment, right? So, you know, there's no reason to get banned out of shape, but at the same time, I still get banned out of shape.
I I still get [ __ ] annoyed and everything else. Did you fight the first boss in the north camp? No. The north camp? No. Uh, I guess we're going to go to that. I don't know. cuz this is the first thing. It says go to the first area on Blackbeard's map. Are we better if this is like an MMO? I feel like most games, so my perspective is that most games would probably be better. I I would enjoy most games more if there was a like a a shared um experience factor, but I don't think it needs to be like a ongoing shared experience factor.
So like for example um like where wins me like yeah you can play with other people in that game but you don't really have to. you can just sit there and play by yourself if you want like Monster Hunter like and I think like Monster Hunter, Grand Blue Fantasy Relink, um where Winds meet, those are the I think that the MMO hybrid games that and I think Crimson Desert is going to evolve into that. Uh I think those are the games that are really going to be the most appealing to people and I think that they they actually cast the widest net.
upload about women. I saw your latest upload about women being crazy. Uh, you're going to have to be more specific than that. I I I know. I I do that a lot. I don't know why they're so cra I don't know what the hell's wrong with them. I I I don't know what the [ __ ] wrong with them, bro. Like, it's just it's crazy, isn't it? Okay, so we've made it to the first place on the map. Let's go over here. Oh, those are bad boys. Those are bad boys. All right. I got to get my food up.
Okay. What was it? Seven. Seven and eight. Seven and eight. That's That's double the dodo. I don't really want to honestly I don't want to deal with them. What? How about that? Jesus. [ __ ] you. How about that? How about [ __ ] you? You, too. You want one? There you go. Another one. I just kill I I I just cut him up. I didn't I I didn't even want to do that, guys. I didn't want to do that. Okay, here we go. See, I'm making myself a way to get out in case something stupid happens. wow. Well, [ __ ] yeah.
Great. Easy. I I thought that was going to be annoying or something, but no, that was nothing. Okay, so now what I think I should do, you guys said I can fast travel from the boat, right? So, if I get on the boat and then I teleport back to Tortuga, then I can get closer to being to the next area, right? So, like, let's say I do Oh, let me actually put some of this stuff away. Um, I don't really think I need that. I don't need this right now. Okay. Tortilla. No. Okay. So, steer the ship.
And then I can just tell. Wow, that's easy. Well, [ __ ] Do you need the right potion. So if I keeps us going. Okay, this is sewing tools. Oh, this is for gear. Look at this. Critical hit chance. I feel like that's not very good. I fixed worse gears than yours. I'll work for you. Thrifty Taylor. Chance to recover resources spent on upgrading an item. That's insane. Especially if item means everything. Like cuz item could mean cuz Taylor insignia tells a story. Let's see yours. I was trying to read this real quick. Tools make the hunter.
so now I guess we need to go to the other side. Sail in here on sea. Uh where's my boat? It says long dick. That's my boat. What's the energy you get from killing ships? Um, you get the insignas now. In my opinion, yours, do I go to I guess I should go to this, right? I feel like I should go to the the Martha thing. Yeah, let's go to her because that it number one, it's the closest and number two um it was like for this area anyway. And so how do I go? Oh, I have to go this way.
Where are the winches? They need to add that, too. You got to find a nice gilded cutless sword and a flint lock pistol. Honestly, I will probably do like right now like the I mean the guns are good in the game, but I don't think that they're like really good. I think the best weapon right now is my sword. It's the best weapon as long as I I I play well. Like if I don't play well, then I'm dead. But you know, I have to play well. So, you're enjoying the game? It also looks badass.
Yeah, I do. I do enjoy the game a lot. Like, I played it last night. Like, I didn't want to complete any of the quests because I knew people were like, "Oh, we want to see what's going on, right?" But like, uh I I did I did play it a lot. I just didn't do any quest progress. That's how I upgraded all my stuff and I just kind of got a better idea on like, okay, this is kind of how the game works. This is how it plays, etc. There's a lot of content after the demo parts.
I don't know. I have no idea yet. Like right now, like one thing I find to be kind of interesting is that you don't get experience from killing monsters or killing ships. Like the only way you really level up is by actually doing quests. And in a way that's kind of a good thing and and like at least for the way this game is. That way you don't like overlevel the content just by like farming a lot. This or Crimson Desert? Well, I don't know. I haven't played this game enough to know like I I really think Crimson Desert is an S tier game.
I do. I think it's a great game. Like there are some things about it that I find annoying. Oo, yellow. Um, there are things about it that I find annoying, but overall I think it's really really really good. Draw game design looks a lot like a lot of work that went into making this. Yeah, I mean any of these games they put a lot of work into it for sure as a female disappointed in the female characteristics not being winches as well. Yeah. I mean, the I'm I'm going to be honest. Like, I talk a lot about like being able to have like sexy characters in games, but the only reason I care about that is because other people care about that.
Like, I care about it because I think that it's like I I don't want to have my space be colonized basically. I don't want to have these people like tell me what to do or like try to, you know, give you some kind of [ __ ] like, oh, this is what you're supposed to do, but like camp. Well, I'm just saying I'm telling you the truth. Like, I mean, that's just how it is for me. That's a really good one of it. Yeah. Are the ships you fight infinite could be a way to lower level? I don't think you can you can gain experience from killing the ships.
Pretty sure you can't. You seen your Twitter? Hold the cap. Yeah, but those are real girls. And also, it's the same thing as like I don't I don't like Hooters. Like I I don't like I think it's stupid. Like there's there's a time where I want to eat chicken and there's a time where I want to look at boobs and it's never the same time. Like it's two very very different concepts. So when I hear like, "Oh yeah, this is some really cool thing where it's like hot girls walking around giving you stuff." I don't care about that.
I don't give a [ __ ] about that. Yeah, I don't care. Stupid. That's just me. It's just me. Do I look at boobs? No, cuz it distracts me from eating. I just want to eat. Like, maybe that's crazy, but like I I don't want to have distractions like that. It's [ __ ] annoying. Yeah, we have to have a bucket of chicken next to the computer and porno. Well, I mean, maybe, but that's like in your own house. Like, I don't I don't know, man. I just think it's [ __ ] weird. I do. I think it's [ __ ] weird. I've never been hard while eating chicken, honest.
Well, probably I have been to be fair. Like, but like I mean cuz I mean it's I mean you think about how many times I've eaten chicken like I mean there had to have been an overlap at at a certain point over the years. Like I mean somehow there must have been an overlap with this but I don't [ __ ] remembered it. I'll tell you that. And now imagine big fat man giving you chicken. What do you prefer? The big fat guys giving me chicken because that's probably some good chicken. How you think they got fat?
Think about it. Like I'm gonna be honest. Like anytime I see a cook that's really skinny, I say obviously not. It's just it's the opposite, right? Every time you see a doctor that's fat, you say obviously not. You see a cook that's skinny. Obviously not. Yeah. Think about it. Is this game like Sea of Thieves? It's a long journey. Yeah. The the um the travel time in the game definitely takes a while. like um I think that if you made the ship Oh, it's another yellow. If you made the ship move a little bit so a good parallel to this is like Valheim.
If you made the ship travel a little bit faster, like cuz it goes like it says it's going 18 to 19 knots and if it went to like 20 or 25, you just made them a little bit faster. Uh, I I do think that probably it would be easier to it wouldn't take quite as long. Oh, [ __ ] Oo, that's a that's a lot of that's a lot of guys. I mean, they're only level two. Should I try to take them on? I mean, they're right in a way. And I need to do this anyway. I feel like let's just big dick them.
They're cooked. No, I'm not. They're cooked. I'm going to kill them right now. I'm only going to fight one at a time, though, obviously. Dude, I didn't do any damage to that thing. Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it. Oh, dude. He's getting Wait. Okay. All right. I got to stay focused. I got to stay focused. It's 2v one. It's 2v one. I'm going to kill this one first. It's dead, right? It's not going to shoot at me. Wow, that's a lot of damage. Am I that guy? Wait a minute.
Wait, I'm actually that guy, bro. Where's he at? I'm him, dude. All right, let's go. The cannons, dude. I'm going to go after this other guy right now. No, [ __ ] the loot. [ __ ] the loot. I'm going to get this right now. Where's this little dick sucker? We're going to use the bolasses. You know what? [ __ ] the bolasses. We're going to go in raw. Raw with the cannons. I don't know if I can hit him from here. I just don't know. That was a mistake. D Go back around. Okay, that was a close warning experience. A Jesus, bro.
That was bad. Got it. You're dead. All right, boys. See you, [ __ ] Did I just miss? There's no way I just missed, right? Damn, bro. Like I actually just shut him Oh, [ __ ] yeah, dude. That's three boats I destroyed. I'm going to be real. Like that got my confidence so high that it's probably going to get me killed. It did. Like I'm actually I'm really feeling like that guy. Mhm. So I've got to go back and and I I need to board one of these ships and see what it's like if I don't kill these guys cuz I don't know how that works.
Overconfidence makes you care less. I know. I was thinking about that whenever I got hit by that first attack. I was like that probably wouldn't have happened if I was thinking about it better. Yeah, I feel like especially if these are like percentage heals, as soon as you get a good ship, you're just going to start snowballing. Like I'm going to be able to farm this out no problem. I wonder like have they said like how much of a percentage of the game? So now we get to do the quest too. So have they said how much of a percentage of the game the beta is now?
Like is it like half 80% 30%. Did they say anything about it? Do you think this will be better than Valheim? It's a lot different than Valheim. 50. Okay. It's like half the game cuz I feel I feel like the um like one thing that I hope they do is that you have to have like there has to be at the end of it, you have to be able to intercept the British Royal Navy treasure ship. Like that has to be like the hardest mission in the game. There's that fighting Davy Jones [ __ ] uh undead pirate crew and uh fighting a Kraken.
Th those are like the That's like the three pirate fantasies put together. The Spanish ship. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yes. The Spanish Armada. Yes. No, you're right. So true. let me go over to here. If they want me to fight a ship that's that level, I'm kind of afraid of that. I don't know if I have to do any combat here or not, but it looks like there's a skull. So, I'm going to put some heels That way, I can be safe. We'll take a look. Smuggler's base. How the hell do I get in here?
Oh, maybe it's around here. Oh, it must be in here, right? Oh. Oh, I see. I see. Okay, I get it. Oh, there's another fast travel here. That makes it really useful. Don't ask unnecessary questions. And I have to go inside the cave. And if I have a fast travel, I don't have to worry about Oh, okay. This is no big deal. We're dealing. Haven't seen you be here. I'm new here. Let's deal with it. Someone's hitting all the cashes. let me make sure I go through all these. If there's something else I can unlock.
Okay. Is this another way? You got it. Okay. I don't know if I need to buy this or not. Gold. Ooh, gold masks. This museum. Smugglers of Port Royal. Decoration. Oh, the decorations probably give you. I'm just looking at this. Enable tactics 5. Silence the guns. Ship shape. It doesn't tell you what what what it is. Hull bracing. Five stacks of steadfast over time. Taking damage consumes one stack. Oh, I see. Okay. So, it's like a Oh, I bet these are like those buffs that I can put on there. They're like traits I can give my ship.
So, what does it want me to do? Find hail? Vention by sinking three of Blackbeard ships. Sink three pirate ships. I already did that. I gone missing again. Um, I'm just looking around what I should do. I think we should go over to here. We should do this. But the question is that do you guys think that I should go after this boat here? Like I think it's a level 10 boat. Ships under your hand, captain. Wait, I'm actually I'm already going after it. Hi We're running. You know what? I think I can do this.
I think I can do it. Ready on the go. I just have to be smart. Have to consider travel time. Heat. Heat. I got to I got to focus 100% in. I don't think I can. I'm very close. I'm not out. I'm not dead. I'm not dead. I'm not dead. I'm not dead. Why can't I move? No, no, no. Uh, no. Boat. Where's my boat? I No. I No. You still got it. What did I get? I mean, I don't think I can board it by myself. Okay, here's what we do. Here's what we do.
I go back to the ship. I teleport back to base. I repair the boat at the wararf. I teleport back to this place while I get on the boat. And then I respawn the boat here. And I finish the And I board it. I do. It's going to disappear in a minute. No, it won't. Can I board by myself? Cuz I I'm I'm ready to board right now. Like I'll I'll board the boat. Like just let me know. Try it. Do I just get this? I I'll take that. That went pretty well. It's a team effort.
Yeah, bro. I just ca Bro, I'm like a Somalian pirate. I just came in and just just got it. Yeah, I smied him. I did. Okay, so let me go back. All right, so this is the strategy. So I go all the way back to my base and now I respawn the ship. Long dick. Oh my god, I need wood for long dick. Give me a minute. I have to kill this. let me get wood. That's actually not that bad. Like, it's only 20 wood if I [ __ ] up. That's not awful at all. I feel like it could be a lot worse.
And I guess while I'm here, I'm going to clean my inventory out, too. Let me do that real quick. Okay, I guess I'm going to put these away for now, too. I don't really need these. And okay, where the wood at? Where the wood? There the wood. 50 more wood. And I think what I'm going to do too is I pro Damn, you've been grinding. I mean, a little bit, right? I've been playing the game a little bit. All your ship cargo maybe. Well, yeah. Well, I should be able to I mean, the ship cargo shouldn't I don't want to just Let me not even say anything.
I don't want to say anything. cuz that was all my stuff. Oh, thank God. Okay, good. All right, so I think what I'm going to do, so I I only have five spaces left. So, let me go. I'm going to teleport back and I'm just going to put all this stuff away cuz like there's no other like what else am I going to do with this [ __ ] right? So, let me do that real quick. Imagine you lost all your cargo. Wait, what? What's happening? Oh, there I am. Okay. I was like I got so confused there.
Little [ __ ] Got him. Inventory management time. Absolutely not. It is literally This is what I'm going to do. I'm going to just build another chest and I'm going to put all the new stuff in the new chest. And that's how you get an inventory like my Valheim inventory. Okay. Storage. And we've got it right here. And we're going to put it right. We're going to put it right there. And watch this. Watch how I handle problems. I put all the problems in the problem box. And now there's no more problems. That's it. Problem solved. It's that easy.
That's called being smart. You need minions to join your server to sell all your [ __ ] I I really actually I'm going to be honest. I hate inventory management in video games. I absolutely [ __ ] hate it. I I like I never want to do inventory management. I never want to be involved with it. I I like the only time that I ever do it is like if I absolutely have to cuz it's just like to me it's like a it's like a complication, right? It's something I don't really want to do. Okay, this is the next one we need to do right now.
Open journal. Infiltrate Richard's camp. Okay, there it is. All right, let's beat this dude's ass. Let's go. It's just tedious. Yeah, it's just tedious and unnecessary. I don't think I need to do them, right? I like weight systems. I can cheese. I I mean, I feel like both systems like the only thing I don't like is like if there's a game that has an inventory system and then there's a bunch of inventory bloat, right? Like uh what's the game that had a lot of this? uh once human had like so much inventory below it. It was insane.
And I feel like a lot of things like that it's like kind of like very unnecessary. You've improved inventory management since you play Resident Evil 9. Well, yeah. I mean, well, that was a game like and that's another thing where it's like a really good video game will make something like inventory management part of the game where it's like it makes sense that like you you have a limited inventory in Resident Evil 9 and every piece of your inventory matters and there's like a strategy to it where it's like in a lot of other games there is no real strategy to this.
It's just you have to collect stuff and that's it. Elden Ring add a little bit of inventory blow. Um, there's a lot of spells in Elden Ring. There's a a huge amount of spells in there. When ammo has weight, it sucks, but I actually like it. Yeah. I mean, like I think it depends on like how realistic a game is. Like in my opinion, I think video game realism doesn't matter nearly as much as like content. Like the the the focus for a game. Okay, we're not not doing that again. Um, the focus should always be around like making the game fun.
And so if the game isn't fun, then it sucks. So like it really depends on like kind of what it is. Cuz there's some games that like the addition of like certain inventory mechanics, etc. Just make it like super unfun. Turn the shanties back on. I I would, but I'm talking. That's the reason why. Based. Yeah, exactly. Do corpses ever get stuck underground? Uh realize that. And uh that's what parkour mode is for. Yeah. And like also like to me, I enjoy playing games like that, but okay. Um let's not deal with them. I don't think I need to deal with that.
Just go around them. Green hell is a great example of this. I never played that. That's the games of Quto Maniacs. Well, I feel like any game where you can like I'm just going to big dick it, man. I'm I'm just going to big dick him. I don't give a [ __ ] I'm I'm going straight in. All right, we're going to go forward. Let's go. Three at a time. Jesus. One down. Jesus, bro. I'm actually I'm I'm trying to get better. Ah. Wait, what? I thought it was dead. What? How's that thing not How did I not hit it?
Dude, I'm actually crashing out. I'm crashing out. Crashing on so hard right now. Lead on speed. Yes. Yes. You like that? Are you [ __ ] Are you [ __ ] kidding me? All right, let's go. good. Okay. Uh, six. I need to heal. All right. I've got Now, now we're going. We're going all the way. Why so many? I don't know. They just spawned in, man. Jesus, dude. This guy got so much health, too. Dude, I I've got to use more of my my my boats, man. Oh my god, I'm dying so much. Got him. I got to heal again.
Got to heal again. Okay. Okay, now now we're farming. Okay, that's one down. I'm waiting. Got it. Kill them. Wait, they're all dead. I killed them. Holy. No, they're not. Right. One more. One more. One more. Got him. And you're dead, dude. Dude, I'm actually farting him. Holy [ __ ] I'm that guy. Regular repair. Yo, good idea. Good idea. Good idea. I don't think I can. I got to wait. Let them come. No, I don't want to fight them. They're They're higher level. And then then we're going to board this [ __ ] after this. We actually started farming.
That was insane. Look at all that stuff. And also like I get one master's repair kit or or a combat repair kit every single time that I kill uh one of these these guys. I think that'll hit it, right? I'll kill it by the time I get over got it. I had to blow it up before I hit it because then it would it would interrupt my repair kit. How the [ __ ] did I miss Okay, now we board. We're going to board this boat right here. Make sure I heal. Oh, it didn't work. That way I can make sure I'm full I'm full locked in.
Save the crew. Yeah, we're not going to kill the crew this time. Okay, guys. That's confusing. Okay, we're about to board. Here we go. A little too fast. I didn't realize that. At least I'm already full health almost again. Okay, let's go. Begin boarding. All right, let's do it. Hold on. Got him. Got him. Okay, so now I'm not killing them. We are not killing them. This time we got him. Boarding successful. Okay, so I'm going to I'm going to steer the ship now. Okay. Where's my slaves? I didn't get any slaves. I got no slaves.
Literally zero slaves. This sucks. This sucks. Y'all were wrong. Y'all were wrong big time. That was awful. Did you talk to him? I couldn't. I couldn't before. I would have talked to him last time. I feel like that one went pretty well. Like what was that? I was like six or seven ships, right? I think it was seven cuz there was like a pack of three and then the pack of four. It could have just been six maybe. Yeah, like that went crazy. Should check below for a chest next time. I have before. I never seen one, so I assume there wouldn't be one.
Okay, so this is the next one I have to go to and do. Oh [ __ ] the bitter pill. And this does look like a place that I need to get ready to Got it. All right. So, let me go right now and I'm going to make a fast travel point right here. No, I'm not. I have no wood. Okay. Let me look and see if I can get wood from the ship. There's no way I didn't get wood, right? Yeah, of course I got wood. Okay, perfect. All right, so now we're going to use this and then I can make it that way.
So now I can just literally fast travel back to here anytime I want. See, easiest game of my life. got to find out where this quest is. I don't know what to do here. Okay, there's one thing right in this area. I don't know what this is. It's a little camp. Ooh. There's a fat boy in there. I'm going to wait for fat boy to come Dude, really? Okay, you're dead. Okay, he's dead. I had to kind of like lure him out of there. Contrabang. Good. All right, that's like one item I have done. Oh, we have to go all the way over there.
Let's go. Can you build a base on land in this game? Yeah, you can. That's actually It seems like it's kind of like the majority of the game, but I haven't really been doing that a lot. Like, cuz what I really need to do is it's just it's really just a matter of farming, I think, for me. And like all I need to do is just farm more. And if I farm more, I'm going to like, you know, get everything I need. Especially like killing those ships. But it seems like like the strategy is that you kill ships until you get the chance to make a ship that's like a higher tier and then you move on to like the next tier so you can fight higher ships.
Like that's kind of the way it looks like to me. Is this copper, too? Yeah, it is. This should almost be the new place. one out of four. That's a lot. And we'll go inside here and we'll see what happens. Is the game good? Yeah, the game's good. Oh, [ __ ] Um, I'm just going to kill him. We are dead. Got him. I had to focus there. Okay, so it says Oh, X marks the spot. This must be the spot. Okay, so loot this. Look around. There's nothing else really here. All right, let's go inside. distance.
Best keep your distance. Why the [ __ ] did it tell me to come here then? What the [ __ ] am I supposed to do? The [ __ ] am I supposed to do? I thought X marks the spot. This isn't It's a level nine quest. See black marks. Okay, I have to do the other ones. Okay, that's fine. Wait, what the hell? What do you want? What do you want? What are they do? What are these stupid birds doing? No wonder they went extinct. The [ __ ] boys, get the [ __ ] out of All right, so what's over here? Oh, that's a lot of [ __ ] That's three [ __ ] right there.
Cut you in. Dude, I'm just farming them. Filibuster's hat. Oh, that's really good. Okay, if I've got to go to the other one, I'm going to take a break and uh I might play a little bit more of this tomorrow, play something else. But uh yeah, I'm going to relax and probably get some food. Hopefully get Chipotle earlier today and uh do that. I'm excited. Very excited for that. Eat some food and uh and chill out. But uh yeah, I I'm I wanted to show you guys more of the game cuz I have I have really been having fun playing this.
This has been really good. It's been a great game. A savage fat [ __ ] Okay. Uh, I didn't expect that. That was uh a surprise. I I I didn't know he could just do that. I had no idea what happened. He just killed me. Yeah, he just killed me. I I I I I didn't know he could do the charge, honestly. Like if I had known that was going to happen, I would have never put myself in that situation. I thought, you know, logically the charging bores would be able to do the charge. Well, that's not the way this game works.
Okay. Uh, let me just You know what? I should probably kill these guys while I'm here, right? If these pirates have respawned, let me see if they Oh, they did. I feel like I should kill them. That way I get like more uh Captain one clean shot. That way I get more of those like insignias. And those insignas are pretty valuable cuz I'm going to need those in order to turn them in. Fanama 2 got a weird giga update today. Yeah. I mean, like, look, man. I I really don't think they're going to do a I don't think they're going to do a DLC, but somebody said that if Zunou, who was the guy that made Dragons Dogma 1 and 2, they said he didn't make Dark Arisen.
And in my opinion, Dark Arisen is not better than base Dragons Dogma DLC. It's like infinitely better. It's like just way way way way way [ __ ] better. So, from that perspective, like I I would definitely I don't know, man. I just feel like the game like it didn't have really great sales. So, I mean, if they do a DLC for Dragons Dogma 2, I think it could potentially make Dragon's Dogma 2 a better game than Crimson Desert. Like right now, and this might get me in trouble, I actually think that Crimson Desert is a better game than Dragon's Dogma.
And not only do I think that, I think it's not even close. Like it it's like just a way way way better game. It's obvious. I mean, to me it is, right? It It's very obvious. Dragons dog combat, though. Dragon's Dogma Combat is really good and I think it's unequivocally better than Crimson Desert. It is. But at the same time, like, and these are both games that I put over a 100 hours into, by the way. I played these both these games a lot. I think that the combat in Dragon's Dogma is really it it's if Dragon's Dogma if if if you had Dragons Dogma combat inside of the amount of content that Crimson Desert had, you would have the game of the year.
This would be the game of the year. Would not even be a question. Um, yeah, it would be. But, um, I I I just think that really like it just like Dragon Sagma 2 just didn't have a lot of content. Like what I I unironically think they should do is they should just add in a lot of the monsters from Monster Hunter. They should just like add in uh like I'm trying to think like what monster would like really make sense like things like Angenath and [ __ ] like that. I think it would be really cool.
That is a big boy. Wait, I'm already full up on inventory Oh my god. Okay, let me figure this out after I kill this guy. If I had missed that parry, it would have killed me again. that was close. Okay. Uh, can I loot any more of this? Do I need any of these? I feel like I don't really need any of these. I guess I can throw away the rock and loot the meat. Put on the hat. Oh, yeah. You're right. Good idea. Where's my hat? Combat in Crimson's way better. Um, I disagree. I think that just because the combat is really flashy in Crimson Desert doesn't mean that it's actually of higher quality.
Like I I know what you're I know what you're trying to say, but I just don't agree with that. Now, I don't think so. Like I can I but I can see where somebody's coming from when they say that, though. It's not like you're 100% wrong. I just, you know, think that there are other things that are more important. Dragon Sama 2's abilities feel like they matter more. Yeah, like in Crimson Desert Oh, I have a borehead. I I don't need a borehead. Uh I was just thinking for a second. Um actually, I should probably go and just teleport back right now because I'm I'm full up on inventory anyway.
Game play is is king. Yeah. And so like basically like I could show my character in Crimson Desert really quick before I end. Um yeah, and I can show you kind of what I mean by that. It's all the way over there. [ __ ] Okay, let me just I can just do this later on. Somebody had a tornado in Dragon Sto and feeling like I haven't been able is a feeling I haven't feel like I can recreate. I'm going to be honest. I think the tornado was a lot cooler in Dragon Age Stoma 1. Maybe unpopular opinion, but I think it was a lot cooler and it had more like it was like there was like more function to it.
I spam heal into boss fights in Crimson Desert. No real skill check. I mean, I I mean, I got to the point to where I could beat the like I'm waiting for the boss the boss rematch thing so I can try out the other bosses and everything. Dragon Soma one had a much better field than Dragon Sama 2. I feel like also Dragons Dogma one like the only problem that I had with that one of the problems I have with that game is that the like the overwhelming majority of the combat encounters in that game were in like very small hallways like the the high-end combat encounters like in Bitterblock Isle.
And I think that it made the mystic archer infinitely more powerful than I think it should be because like you could like for example like you could stun lock death just with like that spell. And I I felt like that was kind of like it was like a structural advantage that you had in the game that um shouldn't have existed in the way it did. And it was like it was something like if if the the environment was made differently, the combat balancing would be different. We do a hard mode. Play through the Crimson Desert.
No, I'll probably just swap it over. Like I I don't think the game I don't think the game really warrants it. Like, and I also put in like, you guys have to think like I put in how many hours into this game? 380 hours. No, I don't want to do I don't want to do another playthrough. I did my playthrough, man. So, this is my guy. obviously like all my gear is fully upgraded. And I also have a fully upgraded uh bow as well. So all these are are fully like totally like I mean it's not I don't have it like men maxed.
Like both of these are upgraded too. Uh I have like tons of money obviously. Um let me think. Oh yeah, my my skill tree is fully maxed out. I didn't do these cuz I didn't really need them. Uh, this is totally done. Stamina, health, spirit. This is all done. My journal, this is about where I was at at the journal. I did a good amount of this, but not all of it. Like the delicia, this is kind of where I I kind of stopped. Stuff like this, I kind of stopped with this, too. And uh, like there was like a like an infinite respawning thing.
I didn't do that. And but yeah, a lot of these I already did as well. And let me see And I guess I can just I can show a little bit of combat cuz like so I I have it to where like my range damage and also my melee damage are both like insanely good. Like I'll just So I'll show you the melee damage first. Oh, I have the Do I have the wrong weapon? Yeah, like he's dead like pretty much instantly. They actually changed the way this works. Yeah, something was changed here. But, uh, yeah, I don't know.
And let me go and get back on the boat like and see if I can find something. I didn't know they're going to run away that fast. Why not long sword? I like the two-handed sword better. I think it's cooler. Yeah, that's that's actually the reason why it is a really good game. It's a very good game. Poor gazels. Yeah. What a minute. So, yeah, I have a basically I have like my my gems on this give me infinite arrows. Like I didn't feel the need to get a 2x like 60%. I'm probably going to get rid of this health siphon and I just put attack bonuses on it to make it easier for me.
And so like now I can just do Just instantly kills them. And so like because I have maxed out stamina also, uh it makes it like super easy to just like insta kill like let me show you like with this huge group, right? All dead. So it's really good. And yeah, like I I I've been doing this a bit. I have a lot to look forward to. Yeah, the um the explosive arrows are really really really good. Yeah, but I I do think the main concern and like criticism I have for Crimson Desert is a lack of like a feeling of unique play style differentiation.
Like the play style of long sword is functionally about the same as the play style of spear. And the play style of spear is functionally about the same as the play style of uh of the two-handed sword, right? Or like of one-handed and two-handed are basically hand like everything's basically the same. And I feel like that's kind of the that's that's probably the biggest criticism I would have for the game right now is like that there's no real sense of uh like motivation to like try out a new like the only real difference in build is like a bow build.
But the problem is that the bow build is like there's one version of the bow build that's like it's so good that there's no reason for you to ever want to do anything else besides that version. And like that's the the explosive arrows. And because explosive arrows are so strong, there's not going to be a point where, you know, you're going to want to use like, oh, okay. Like get him out of here. Get him out of here, bro. Like I love it. And uh anyway, uh you're not going to want to use anything else besides that because of how good it is.
All the weapons being the same. Yeah. Like for example, like in Elden Ring, like each weapon has a different like attack attack set. Okay, so here here's some guys. This is what I was looking for before I was going to end. I was going to show this. So this is like the melee combat. I can kill everything in like one or two hits. And this is also like not been maxed at all. Or I can use this and still do that. And so, yeah, like that's basically like that's where I'm at right now with the combat.
And, uh, you know, it's very good, but it's like it's one-dimensional, but it's a good dimension, if that makes sense. Did you kill the ogre boss? No, I didn't. I don't even know where it is. Uh, where is it? Yeah, if you guys want, I I can show. I I probably haven't done it. Let me see. I just look it up real quick. Where's he at? It didn't say whoever designed the ogre boss can go to hell. This secret boss fight in Crimson Desert not only gives you an extremely overpowered necklace that gives you an insane attack boost and no BS guides like this.
And to fight desolate closer like a giant battle arena to a place called the des. It's right there. All right. Um, give me a second. Uh yeah, it's about there. We ride. Yeah, I I'll show you a boss. Like I I've never done this boss before, so I might as well do it. Crimson Desert area. Yeah, it took a lot. Like I I think it was definitely like kind of a risk to, you know, like put an area like that literally is in the name like that far away, but I think it was definitely the right call.
If this guy doesn't spawn, like I I'm not going to even try to figure out how, but you know, if he shows up and just spawns in, I'll kill him. Um, let me just go up above here. I don't know if this I don't know. This doesn't really look like a boss arena to me. Oh, maybe that kind of does. Doesn't Ugabooga get more swords? You mean uh Una? Um, he I never played him because he's just worse, right? That it's really that simple. Oh [ __ ] No, I've never done this. That's a big boy. so I'm supposed to worry about people are upset about this.
This seems easy. Why are people upset about this? How much health is he? Wait, really? All right. All right. Well, anyway, uh so yeah, hope you guys enjoyed the stream. That's kind of cool. Is it details? What does this do? Oh, that's Yeah, that's good. Just like Simon 100% cheese them. What do you mean I 100% cheesed them? What are you talking about? Like I I literally just did the boss. I like I I my character is maxed out. Like I don't know what you want me to say. She matches it perfectly. It's not my fault, man.
After all this stuff, it's not cheese. Yeah. I mean, right then. This boss is super easy. Well, I mean, even the attack patterns were easy. Like, I don't know who's saying the boss was hard. Like, just be good. Remember your ancient name. They're mad at you cuz you win. So true. Oh, so true. Okay. Well, anyway, um thank you guys very much for watching. I really appreciate it. And uh you know, I figured I'd show you guys this cuz I, you know, for a little bit of closure, like this is, you know, again, like kind of that this is how far I got with the game and I did everything and you know, it was really fun.
It was a great game. But anyway, guys, thank you all very much…
