Just watched all of ACG's - Wait. Due to the enormous amount of bugs.

One thing that sounds inferiorating, if you die to a boss, you have to start again at the beginning of a cut scene and it's unskippable.... Why do people do this?

Also one major one would be puzzle items not spawning - reload a save and if you saved too close to the puzzle you may have to run out of range, save again, and run back.

I'll be keeping an eye out on the day one patch notes.

I'll be keeping my eye on the 2 hour clock just in case I feel the need to refund on Steam.

Combat:
Combat in Crimson Desert is outstanding. I would not have waded through so many of the campaign's more frustrating sticking points if it wasn't for the fact that going into battle is pure fun. I played the entire game with a sword and a shield, which are Kliff's bread and butter. He has a range of moves, from the natural magic of Force Palm to the more grounded ability to dropkick his enemies off cliffs. Once the combos start to become natural, the combat is fluid and satisfying. It's the best I've ever experienced in an open-world game, and I'm not even sure the competition is close.

So basically exactly what I figured.

Tell me you've never played BDO without telling me you've never played BDO.

That reminds me of the original Xenogears that had a 20+ minute unskippable cutscene before a major boss fight. Took me like 10 tries on that shit and I would just let it run and walk away until the fight started. Such nostalgia!

I mentioned it a few weeks ago, but that Morning Light expansion a few years ago was the worst. Just constant running around for story you didn't care about so you could actually play. Seems like they designed an entire game around the concept.

Then you'll be happy to know they made a Pt. 2 for the LoML story!!

Thank fucking Christ you don't have to do it for any decent rewards like you have to for the first part.

Their first few paragraphs are CLASSIC Pearl Abyss. Pretty much the exact same things are present throughout BDO's entire lifespan.

I stopped reading once I realized the guy is just a shitty gamer, but a lot of his review sounded spot-on for PA.

I put a few days into Black Desert. Combat hits hard and feels visceral/fun at first, but it's super spammy with way too many abilities. Nothing stood out... every move felt equally interchangeable, so I never got that sense of mastering the system or a truly cohesive flow. Sort of sounds like CD is the same?

I've watched several reviews now, they all comment on controls (usually Controller pov), puzzles and mostly small annoying bugs. FightingCowboy rambles on about a lot of stuff here:

Eh, maybe? For BDO, it would depend on class by class and whether you would need to focus on survival or not. For CD, there seems to be Trash Combat and Boss Combat, very different difficulty scaling going on.
