Though there are things to love in Crimson Desert if you’re open to hobbies like tower ogling or ghost train riding, the mammoth action adventure blob’s story is arguably its biggest weakness. Well, aside from those AI paintings which were left in it on release. Developers Pearl Abyss, currently in the midst of trying to patch up a lot of the other holes players and critics have pointed out, have now made clear they’re aware that their tale of people witrh grey manes fighting evil bears isn’t the best.


It’s interesting to hear the studio’s reflections on Crimson Desert. Acknowledging areas for improvement shows growth, and it’s great that there are still enjoyable aspects for players to explore. Looking forward to seeing how they develop future projects!
