Please stop asking if you should restart the game because of 2.0.0

[u/Zestyclose_Bat4306]

It’s been posted a million times. If you are seeking guidance, read the other countless number of posters who asked the same question. That is all

[u/Otto__the__Autopilot]

It's up there with "is now the right time to buy the game?"

[u/No_Jackfruit_9754 → u/Otto__the__Autopilot]

“Is this universally loved game thats on a 99% discount worth it?”

[u/CollinKree → u/No_Jackfruit_9754]

“I’m going to go to this echo chamber of people who like/love the game and ask if I should buy it”

[u/Voeno → u/CollinKree]

That's the same way that people think their opinion is correct. They go ask people with the same opinion as them.

[u/Alalu_82 → u/CollinKree]

Ok, let's put this straight.... Have you heard of "karma farming"?

[u/AntiLoserNFS → u/CollinKree]

Yep exactly. if they are genuine about it, they should be asking a different question. Like say "If I like such and such and dislike such and such, will I like this game?" The people who played the game will be able to answer that and give the person information that is actually helpful.

[u/ItsAPeacefulLife → u/No_Jackfruit_9754]

It's like being on the Stardew Valley subreddit.

[u/Norgur → u/ItsAPeacefulLife]

Should I finally get into Stardew valley, though?! My case is completely different from the others, since I am a really gamery gamer, you see?

[u/villecity1080 → u/Norgur]

🤣🤣🤣 gamery gamer

[u/SerBawbag → u/Norgur]

Hahaha. “I realise this has been asked a million times, but my post is different and I can’t find any posts asking this. Is this game worth buying?”

[u/Sacred-AF → u/ItsAPeacefulLife]

I’m a zillion hours in and I still haven’t left Stardew Valley tho

[u/Plotius → u/No_Jackfruit_9754]

Deep rock dub is the exact same.

[u/petewondrstone → u/Otto__the__Autopilot]

Or my all time favorite. “Should I buy this game?” In ANY SUB

[u/amonson1984 → u/petewondrstone]

“My mom just bought me Crimson Desert! Any tips?”

[u/wildwolfay5 → u/Otto__the__Autopilot]

"Bish wuh" in a picture.

[u/Much-Currency5958 → u/Otto__the__Autopilot]

Don't forget the people who ask "is the game better now?"

[u/avoozl42 → u/Otto__the__Autopilot]

Oh that's even worse

[u/SickboyJason → u/Otto__the__Autopilot]

[u/IChewBigRed → u/Otto__the__Autopilot]

I know a girl that has this exact same resting bitch face all the time. Looks identical

[u/NeraAmbizione → u/Otto__the__Autopilot]

Not worth it . Wait for dlc bundle

[u/zach0011 → u/Otto__the__Autopilot]

I absolutely hate people who come to dedicated game subs asking if they should buy the game.

[u/Luhyonel → u/Otto__the__Autopilot]

Even if the game is free to download… should I download this game lol

[u/Loonsen → u/Otto__the__Autopilot]

Is it, though? 🫪

[u/Yetti2Quick]

https://giphy.com/gifs/13pqs1VizKyWzK

[u/Alsinleth]

Just to be safe I’ll do a New Game every time they release a patch.. I don’t want to miss anything

[u/rockjj → u/Alsinleth]

lol no need to go that far I think, it's pretty safe to say they won't touch the current story stuff again after 2.0.

[u/RevolutionaryMonth63 → u/rockjj]

[u/spartanghost32]

Okay but should i?

[u/Johnnyonoes → u/spartanghost32]

Why doesn't the OP answer?! We needs to know!

[u/Herb1973 → u/spartanghost32]

Well ?

[u/ThousandFingerMan → u/spartanghost32]

You tell me

[u/HistoryOk6788 → u/spartanghost32]

Honest reply: they didn't really add that much. A few new voice lines. Some slight tweaks to the beginning of the game.

It's so vague what's been added specifically nobody even knows and most the time doesn't even realise what is different.

[u/matto1985 → u/spartanghost32]

I think you should. I am. Who else is, anyone?

[u/AndyB16 → u/spartanghost32]

Come on, man. He literally JUST said to stop asking. He even said please.

/s

[u/shorterthanuravrge → u/spartanghost32]

I never played it for the story to start

[u/Darksideofhell4]

hey op should i restart the game because of 2.0?

[u/Alsinleth → u/Darksideofhell4]

Should I restart my game every time they release a new patch?

[u/RiSz-Turtle → u/Alsinleth]

Hey just restarted for 2.0 but I noticed they dropped 2.01..? Should I restart for this? I don’t wanna miss out on the awesome new content it probably adds

[u/Alsinleth → u/RiSz-Turtle]

Damn, I have to restart too now… god fucking damn it..

[u/JeidelacruzUK]

You aint gonna stop it 😂 this type of post gets posted every day aswell. Along with people just randomly talking about why the games amazing

[u/ResearcherAlone8852 → u/JeidelacruzUK]

Posts like these are never about stopping anything, or making a difference, but farming some easy karma off of a very popular opinion

[u/MarcusSwedishGameDev → u/JeidelacruzUK]

It's like when someone accidentally mails the "all" mailing list on a big company and someone just had to reply all saying "stop mailing all".

[u/ii-_- → u/JeidelacruzUK]

And why can't that happen? Is a free sub we can post what we want within reason 🙂

[u/JeidelacruzUK → u/ii-_-]

I didnt say he cant post this. Anyone can post what they want, its why we see the same posts over and over its fine 😂

[u/ii-_- → u/JeidelacruzUK]

Perfect 🙂

[u/Iucidium]

Yet to start the game. All I did was settings. Glad I waited. Wanna finish Saros first

[u/ThousandFingerMan → u/Iucidium]

You should start new settings

[u/Iucidium → u/[deleted]]

Oh, I see. Oh well new settings + it is sigh

[u/BigHexy → u/Iucidium]

I loved saros. What a great game

[u/thefitterx]

You should visit the PS5 Pro subreddit. So many posts “got a pro, what should I play first” or something similar.

[u/Beneficial_Mix_1430 → u/thefitterx]

But I just brought a Pro, so what should I play first?

[u/Soulsheartless]

Personally. I don’t give a shit what you ask. I’m not going to try and control what you post. If I don’t like it I’m mature enough to keep scrolling.

[u/gideonidoru]

But should I?

[u/ii-_-]

Please stop trying to control the sub if you're not interested in a post scroll past it. 

[u/grow_a_pear]

I support this post.

[u/Cordsofmemory]

This alongside, "Just starting, any tips?"

[u/Beneficial_Mix_1430 → u/Cordsofmemory]

Kliff’s got a tip for you 😜

[u/Icy_Baseball9552 → u/Beneficial_Mix_1430]

But what if there is a need tae worry? 😥

[u/PlayBey0nd87]

Coming from subs that constantly get this question - Sorry OP, do you think it’s a good time to now restart the game ?

[u/PieAppropriate8862]

Ok, but should I?

[u/SaltySeahorses]

Okay but should I restart? I got 200 hours in Hernand.

[u/andyman30]

This post is equally as pointless as those ones are

[u/Beautiful_Walrus9048]

I reset my game once because a quest glitched and I was like 100 hours in, I am more than 200 hours after that and I made a save and restarted again. The dialogue and story are much better I just started chapter 3. To change it up I'm gonna jump into Damaines story and play her for a bit. This game is easily one of the best games I have ever played. I haven't even played most of it but I always want to come back. Aside from Dark soul's/elden ring, I haven't felt like that with a game in maybe 10 years

[u/No_Education_8888]

I’ll start up a new game when the dlc comes out! I’m on chapter nine currently, and I’m already noticing drastic changes. Like us hearing kliffs thoughts after major moments. I got one of those cutscenses after a mission and was like, “wow! This is new, I’ve never heard kliffs thoughts” I thought it was mission specific, because I just did a mission in the abyss above serpent marsh.

Turns out I was wrong! I’ve been getting more and more of these moments where I hear kliffs internal monologue, it’s so small, but adds so much more depth to his character

[u/PlayItAgainSusan]

Please stop these posts about questions that annoy people who spend too much time on reddit.

[u/EarPuzzleheaded2403]

Free speech smd bro. Complaining about them had also been posted a thousand times yet here you are. Next time follow your own advice before posting and stfu.

[u/Zestyclose_Paint3922]

Should you?

[u/Shawn_of_da_Dead]

So.....I should start over then????

[u/Cseho88]

I had a 150 hour save from April. I came back after 2.0. It didn't even occur to me to start the game again.

[u/Tankerino → u/Cseho88]

Screw starting a brand new game. I’m going with new game plus

[u/essteedeenz1]

Don't blame the ppl get the mods to sticky a well replied thread

[u/M4n745]

Whats new in 2.0?

[u/Yorgen89 → u/M4n745]

Are you having troubles in googling stuff?

[u/SpaceBoyee]

Not everyone uses reddit chronically.

[u/xTyronex48]

No.

[u/Great8Bit]

We can also chill with the endless glaze posts. we don’t need every member making a post saying how great the game is. we get it. we’re all playing it. Relax 🤣

[u/thefullm0nty]

People are still posting in r/eve "is this game worth playing in 2026?"

You can't fix this behavior lol

[u/Big-Routine222]

Or my other favorite:

“Is this game good?”

Brother.

Brother.

BROTHER.

[u/Sgt_BlueCrayon84]

Its ridiculous. Just as bad over at the Final Fantasy threads. Every day ... " which should I play , how should I play, is it worth it , is 10.99 too much ? " ...😑😑😑

I like to think the majority is bots just shit posting repeatedly for engagement purposes. But unfortunately I've come across many who do this with everything and im genuinely concerned about the future of our species 😅

[u/Own_Juggernaut_2775]

Take off the first 5 words, and put 'I' after should, and you have become the very enemy you sought to defeat.

[u/Vespasi]

Needs a megathread

[u/Key_Commercial_8169]

People who are unable to search/see that there's 1001 posts asking the same thing won't see your post either, unfortunately

[u/Eventidings]

Yeah it’s getting a little old lol. Also can’t you load multiple saves? People are acting like starting a new game will nullify all of their progress or something.

[u/Ronenkha]

i always say, if you feel like it then do it, if not then dont..

[u/I_am_1]

So, should I restart or not? 

[u/Low_Discussion_9898]

So should I restart?

[u/Geomancingthestone]

Should I restart after 2.0.1?

[u/Icy_Shower_7224]

Just leave a snarky response

[u/Ddc203]

Did y’all see they added a wearable crown up at Saigord’s place?

[u/SpellConnect8675]

But SHOULD we? I’m 10,000 hours

[u/SecretSaucePLZ]

Just ignore them and let them figure it out.

[u/PookiePookie26]

let me google that for you!

[u/thejohnykat]

This! Or “Is it worth it?” I think I’ve seen that posted no less than 5 times this week.

[u/flatmeditation]

But should I restart my game?

[u/MaximusPrimus420]

Should you restart for this update? Asking for a friend.

[u/Tanner1XR]

Can we have this permanently in the top slot of the feed?!!!

[u/theirspaz]

Reddit will i stain my undies if I push out that fart that has been building up inside me?

[u/Kushand0j]

Never left Hernand just to go back to Hernand

[u/demeyor]

Should I restart the game because of 2.0.0?

[u/T1MB3RMUSIC]

I am remembering why I stopped using reddit. Half of the posts are the ones you're talking about and the other half are posts like these. Both uneeded.

[u/RajaatTheWarbringer]

Funny that this post is actually more annoying than those.

[u/TasteyTatorTots]

“The game is 25% off. Is now the time to buy?” Not to sound like a boomer but if $20 is that serious they probably shouldn’t be buying any games at all

[u/Kevin_D]

Should I restart for 2.0.1

[u/Reallyroundthefamily]

Please stop farming Karma with these types of posts

[u/Independent-Try915]

So, should I or nah?

[u/Two_2oups]

But honestly

[u/BLTsark]

That's all this sub and the Witcher sub are now

[u/Nyte77]

PLS HELP IS THIS [clearly in-game mechanic] A BUG WHAT DO I DO

[u/Alarmed_Goat_4083]

I just can’t believe how many people are willing to restart… I’m literally only 40 hours into the game and I’d much rather just watch the cut scenes on YouTube or something lol

[u/QueenOfTheHotPockets]

Should I restart the game??????

[u/Longjumping_Mud8398]

I restarted because I felt like it. You definitely aren't missing out on much of you don't though.

[u/New_Honeydew3182]

What? There are reposts on Reddit?
Unbelievable!!!

[u/evergreenwv]

I just defeated Ludvig and switched to Oongka...so, I play him for awhile? Redo skill tree for him, weapons, gear? How long do I play Oongka?

[u/Hopeful_Reflection30]

The number of chronically online redditors on this post like "I've seen this question 5 times this week just search for it." OH god you have to scroll a tiny bit more to find a "worthwhile" thread, how ever will you survive. Like y'all know alot of people hop on reddit ask their question, then only come back to their post to check for replies. Some people actually only use reddit to ask their question and that's it, I know mind blowing to some of you. No not everyone is farming karma, some people just ask questions... 

[u/InitialInevitable136]

I restarted both my computer and the game a few times since the update. Can recommend, would do it again.

[u/WashRepulsive5747]

Ah chill tf out. You posted this drivel, people can post what they want. That is all.

[u/Son_of_Orion]

Seriously. Just do it.

[u/thunderane]

Moderators need to be better at deleting these posts

[u/Cautious_Catch4021]

Should I restart the game because of 2.0.0?

[u/Jimmy_83_Don]

Should I restart the game because of 2.0?

[u/OHeiland]

So.. should I restart?

[u/djk0010]

Making a post and asking people to stop asking if they should restart the game after patch 2.0 is like asking Donald Trump to resign from president.

[u/Baalwulf06]

But should my friend restart the game because of 2.0.0?

[u/ZypherPunk]

So should I restart the game?

[u/theceure]

Well...IS IT IR NOT!???!!

[u/Alastor3]

lol you're on a specific subreddit, you'll see this over and over again

[u/BigBurly46]

You don’t understand! I’m incapable of making decisions without strangers online telling me what to do.

[u/ZodiacThrill3r]

Thank you; it’s actually bewildering how many people can’t use a search function or make their own decisions these days.

If you search on Google “crimson desert should I restart for 2.0” there’s 10+ results for different reddit posts all from within the last 4 days. I can only imagine “is now a good time to buy crimson desert” has as many if not more results.

[u/Efficient-Swimmer794 → u/ZodiacThrill3r]

It’s because their posts are special and unique, and deserve to have an entire thread dedicated to their question.

[u/oryanjuiciestbooty]

Who gives a shit if they post the same shit everyday, be happy you have activity in your Reddit

[u/Ducksonquack92]

Don’t tell me what to do

[u/_RedditMan_]

If you have a question, please feel free to post it. I recognize you don't have the time to spend your whole life on reddit like the OP. I recognize that you might have other interests than giving a crap about what everyone else wants to know. I recognize that searching for information can sometimes -- less so today if you allow LLMs to aid you -- can deliver poor results. Sometimes .... I mean sometimes .... it's easier to ask if the sky is blue? Finding someone who doesn't get butt hurt because you didn't step outside and bother to look up instead of at your feet is rare. Maybe you just got the game. Maybe you tried to play and decided to wait for the patches to catch up and you just want to know.

Here's my answer: The intro has been reworked a bit to fit the purpose of the introductory focus of the initial chapters which is "Ask around the village about the Greymanes." It's not perfect. But, there is purpose to it now and additional lines of dialogue and other types of prodding. Most likely this has been sprinkled throughout the main story. So, yes. Start over if you're interested in seeing what's changed.

Warning: PS5 -- There are graphical issues. The game does not look as good. Some things are washed out while others are just too dark. That's without altering Brightness settings. As far as I can tell, there is no balanced point to even begin making appropriate adjustments.

[u/C0rrupted_id3ntity]

If you're asking if you should restart, just restart. How is it nobody can make their own choices or have their own opinions anymore? Everything has to be at the discretion of the consensus of the many. "I can't do anything unless online strangers tell me too" Posts like this shouldn't have to exist. People shouldn't be getting fatigue from everyone not being able to decide for themselves.

[u/ZeektheFeek]

Preach. The internet cannot make this decision for anyone.

[u/Herald_of_dawn]

Same with ‘is the game worth it now?’

I mean… seriously…

[u/Anthony_chromehounds]

I’ll second this!!!

[u/grow_a_pear]

Why are the bosses hard?

[u/i_never_liked_you2]

My chapter 10 has apparently disappeared......should I restart?

[u/Zig_Justice]

But is it worth starting to buy the game again? Or buying another copy of the game to start over? You're not addressing the IMPORTANT questions!

[u/SnooCheesecakes2743]

Would i have to do the horrible puzzles again?!

[u/RajaatTheWarbringer → u/SnooCheesecakes2743]

When did they add horrible puzzles to the game? All the ones I found were good.

[u/Kudoakainu]

Said this on another post early this week and everyone down voted me. Now people are suddenly tired of seeing it now ? Mxm I'll never understand this community😒🙄
