It technically started as an MMO. That was their initial idea, but after they started development, they changed direction. That shows in the game to some extent, because the quests are kinda scattered and there is not always linearity, sometimes you get quests out of nowhere which doesn’t make sense. There are some short fedex type quests or tasks, too, but at the same time playing Crimson Desert does not feel like a single player MMO. Exploration is fantastic, but you should know that this game doesn’t hold your hand. You are free to do whatever and to discover the mechanics on your own. There are puzzles with no explanation whatsoever. Sometimes you’ll stumble on some hidden area with an environmental puzzle and no idea what to do. The last game like that was last year’s Hell is Us (a highly recommended hidden gem). Crimson Desert is just fun.
Oh crap. I didn’t mix them up, I did assume, however. Wasn’t expecting it to be single player. I thought I was basically black desert 2. My bad
