Incoming cool story bro:
I was one of the first in the world to find that place naturally, couldn’t believe how deep it was. I know this because there were almost zero player markers and bloodstains. All my parkour days in DS3 prepared me and I made it down second try.

So Crimson desert…buy or wait? Still seems like a buggy mess, things like grab a ledge and get sent to the shadow realm to then plummet to your death, makes me uninstall quickly.

Buy.

Bought it, you all teasing too much. 129GB though, had to sacrifice some old games to the void!

Looking forward to trying it, will try play it with a chill mindset and not the usual rush rush rush.

Will try controller first, not sure whats easier to play with but my wrists are starting to hurt with keyboard/mouse. Old age...

Chill is the way to go. I'm hybrid, play with controller and keyboard. I just hate navigating menus with controllers. Everything else with controller is fine for me since I have two extra paddle buttons I can remap to whatever.

Played for a bit and got up to the abyss area. I like the game so far. Controls are a bit wonky but I'll get used to them.

But one thing, is the lighting weird in this game, it feels like it's too bright sometimes and weird artifacts at times.

Yes... but:

Do you want a game where the main story is deep, engaging, emotional and makes you think about your life choices? If yes, move along. If no, they buy it.

Will you get upset that some controls / functions are not what you're used to? If yes, move along. If no, then buy it.

Is this that strong or a build? Looks like he's just punching shields lol
Yes, Unarmed combat can be quite good, but it has a high skill bar, imo. Yes, he was going to have a bad time vs. all those shield guys, but that is just due to there being so many and those shields make the mobs very tanky. There are many other little vids showcasing unarmed combat, especially vs. Bosses.
