Crimson Desert is sitting at 78 on Metacritics right now. - Vice gave it 100, Forbes gave it 95 - TheGamer gave it a 70, and IGN gave it a 60 (so far) I watched a handful of youtubers review it, and so far this is what is shaking out of the review tree: - Amazing open world - Sense of wonder/awe - Frustrating controls and bugs (for some) So far, it is sounding like an amazing experience, stuffed with things to do, but whose junkiness can detract from it.
