Crimson Desert is an ambitious open world adventure which promises the moon - does it deliver? JDR saddles up for today's review.
The Weight of Knowledge quest chain in Crimson Desert is a part of the Hernand Commissions faction quests at the Scholastone Institute in Hernand.
Crimson Desert is not a direct sequel to Black Desert. While there are similarities in style and atmosphere, Crimson Desert tells its own story.
Good score.
I’ll admit this game does get better at like the 20hour mark.
Had to force myself since I bought it but with the way pearl abyss is updating is definitely an 8-8.5 now. Side quest is still a chore. Especially when I have to follow someone and they slow ass hell. Biggest gripe is some quest has me going hella far and then the person move to somewhere even further to complete. Like why lol
Issue # 423 of Edge Magazine has been released, and it features reviews for games including Crimson Desert, Marathon, and more.
what a garbage crimson desert review. seriously go F yourselves . there is no way in hell i can take edge seriously after such a blatant dumb review
Call me a fool, but I like those scores. I can understand why someone would rate CD an 8 or higher, but I also understand why someone would rate it a 5.
Marathon is goated so well deserved.
A 5 😂 it just getting funnier. I'm baffled what the agenda is from some of these outlets
Super Meat Boy 3D a 4 seems ridiculously low.
A 5 for Crimson Desert will probably be another stain on Edge's already very spotty record.
It's madness. In all my years of gaming I've never seen critic reviews and player reviews have such disparity. It's like they're playing a different game
its insane isnt it? i mean what game are these clowns playing? im playing on base ps5 , the game looks , plays , great. so much stuff to do and im constantly thinking about the game even when im at work. ive been gaming since the mid 90s , its been a while since ive had this sense of wonder as i do for CD
I typically don't join the chorus here, but my personal beef is GreedFall only netting a 5. Figured they'd at least give a bit more credit to Spiders rolling the dice by going quasi-turn-based.
I’m playing it now. It’s a lot of fun to me. There is a lot to do. It runs great and looks great. So many skills and ways to fight or traverse the world. Story is basic right now with some mystery to it but I haven’t gone too far into it yet. For their first game it is really damn good and the potential for a sequel is immense. Compared to other first games like Witcher 1 it’s miles ahead.
it is a divisive game certainly and I think the critique of the weaker quests and plot are valid but at this point a 5/10 rating this long after launch feels like click begging.
Granted this game is massive and the reviewer might have paced themselves out or something, idk, I don't want to click it.
Those reviewers that had a 100 hour review at launch are wild, they had the game as long as any other reviewer so they really no-lifed the game to put that much time in such a short window.
Jump Dash Roll Reviews.
Crimson Desert 5/10.
Starfield 10/10.
Uh. What?
It’s a niche AAA game something that is very rare
