What is Black Desert: Black Desert is a sandbox MMORPG. This means that quests take a backseat, giving players the freedom to write their own story.
First, you create a unique hero using the outstanding character editor and explore a beautifully designed and vast game world. In this world, you will encounter many battles against numerous creatures, which you defeat with an action-packed combat system where combos play a crucial role.
Together with friends, you confront world bosses or participate in siege battles. PvP is an important aspect of the MMORPG. Player-versus-player battles take place everywhere in the world once level 50 is reached.
The PvP allows for massive battles over control of territories. Crafting is also a significant aspect of Black Desert, just like cooperation in groups or guilds.
What players say: Black Desert has a hard time. The game has been accused of being pay-to-win since its release. For example, it is possible to buy infinite attempts to upgrade gear for money. Nevertheless, many find the game very good and consider it the currently most beautiful MMORPG with one of the most interesting sandbox worlds.
Number of players on Steam for Black Desert: Black Desert had an average of 10,358 players online in the last 30 days. At peak, it was 14,021 simultaneously.
- HerB_82 thinks on Steam: “If you don’t just want to grind but also want to do something chill in between, you can have everything here.”
- Trompeten.peter explains: “This game could be one of the best ever, the graphics, the huge world, and the atmosphere are simply overwhelming, and there is no shortage of content. But early on in the game, you see the dark side: Pay2Win!”
What MeinMMO thinks about Black Desert: Black Desert is certainly the MMORPG in 2018 that is being further developed the most and has the greatest potential. However, it is a very special MMORPG that one must engage with. The cash shop particularly causes stomach aches.
