✦━━━ VISUALS ━━━✦

✅A lot of options in settings.

✅Ray Tracing.

✅DLSS, FSR 4, and many other options.

✅HDR looks crisp and doesn't look like it'll need me to mod it for it to work which is a W.

Playing it on an Alienware AW3225QF at 4K.

✦━━━ GAMEPLAY ━━━✦

✅I feel very familiar with Cronos: The New Dawn even though I never played it before. The team who created this game knew how to ease fans of the Horror genre into this new IP. Sometimes, I felt it's Resident Evil coded, while other times it leaned towards Silent Hill in my mind.

✅That said, the more you play: you realize, it's its own thing! I really love the atmosphere in this game. It's so eerie. So mysterious.

✅This feature was amazing to discover: if an enemy finds another corpse, they will consume them. If you're too late to stop it, they will grow stronger! This is such a fun feature!

✦━━━ AUDIO ━━━✦

I have a decent audio set up. There were moments where I couldn't tell if the audio was in the headset or in the room. The team did a great job with the audio.

Some voice acting for the lore recordings was a bit flat but maybet that's the intended intonation? Society seems to be quite fractured in this game's lore.

✦━━━ CATS ━━━✦

Devs love cats. There's a cat in-game. Thought I'd let you know.

Had an idea for a brand new Flair Unique to the Greymanes sub. 'Real Life Greymanes! refers to people who would be a good fit to be Greymanes! Like this example of a Young Elephant cuddling up to its carer at "Elephant Havens Wildlife Foundation" in Botswana. W or L??

Are you Crimson Desert Hernand Maxxing?

Kliff spots a group of freeswords hanging out on a mountain and he literally jumpscares them then beats them up. Kliff does not like being touched. I have this whole headcanon about Kliff being socially awkward and I keep finding material for more.

Crimson Desert Giveaway to Celebrate! Good luck.

Just found Meddler's kid brother. Kliff vs. Bobby Baratheon, the Stag Lord, was pretty fun! I love how you can't tell when it switches from cinematic to gameplay if it weren't for HUD. Visuals on PC are peak: 4K | Ray Reconstruction ON. Did you manage to beat him on your first try?
