This game could very easily be game of the year, trust me. Mark my words. And the reason is because of how deep you can go into this game... it really is one of the top contenders when it comes to all the cool stuff that it has to offer.
If GTA VI fails, it could be game of the year. If GTA VI didn't even come out this year, then by all accounts, Crimson Desert probably would get game of the year as well.
York notes the high interactivity of the world, based on physics, and the depth of mechanics that allow you to fully immerse yourself in the game. In his opinion, the level of detail makes Crimson Desert a contender for the title of technical masterpiece.
The community is divided: many believe that a Rockstar failure is unlikely, given the studio's reputation. Others recall that even RDR2 was not without its problems at the start. The question is whether ambitious elements – from dragon flights to a complex combat system – will not overload the narrative.
