The community has found its new Skyrim and explains why it still hasn’t had enough after hundreds of hours

Crimson Desert Baum Trick

Crimson Desert is almost two months old and players are simply happy with the title. Now they thank the developer for this special open-world adventure.

Why are players so happy? Although Crimson Desert is rated in the 80s on both Steam and Metacritic, it has long found its loyal fans. For many players, it is almost unimaginable that such a game still exists today.

On Reddit, for example, user No-Astronaut-1238 expresses his fascination for the work of Pearl Abyss. He clearly likes the open world, which convinces him in every respect and offers many special moments to experience.

According to the motto: “Nothing is mandatory, everything is permitted,” he is still not finished with the story after 220 hours of play and is in Act 10. So one can assume that he has largely focused on side quests, building his own camp, and exploring the world, and he is not alone.

Crimson Desert as a Marvel

What makes Crimson Desert so good? For many fans, Crimson Desert has become something like the Skyrim of the 2020s. This is also due to the fact that the main story is seen more as a downside than a USP, and therefore the focus is on the successful open world.

That is where the true strength of Crimson Desert lies, which users praise in hundreds of comments on Reddit in all aspects. In this open-world adventure, it’s less about the perfectly staged path to the goal and more about everything that is hidden to the left and right around the corners.

How do players express this? The players of Crimson Desert try to put their enthusiasm into words themselves. Their praise sounds like this:

  • No-Astronaut-1238: “It’s not just a game… it’s a real experience.”
  • Flipidyflapflop: “Agreeing, as someone who has been playing since the NES, CD is definitely something special. It came absolutely out of nowhere for me and I’m currently 130 hours in, in Chapter 7 just before Pailune. I can’t believe how beautiful the area around Pailune is with the huge trees, the new wildlife, etc. The game surprises me every time I play.”
  • jp189512: “I started the game without expecting to try for all achievements at all, but having played it, I think I will aim for 100%, as it is probably in my top 5 favorite games of all time.”

Crimson Desert has convinced players and could persist for years as a long-lasting title like Skyrim on Steam. Once players are satiated with visuals, they can experience the game in an unusual way: Hidden setting transforms Crimson Desert into Diablo V, allowing you to play from the isometric perspective
