Crimson Desert is a game with an unending number of features stacked on top of each other like a wobbly Jenga tower, but Pearl Abyss' RPG almost had one more system to add to the pile, at least, according to a modder who believes they've discovered a system that was fully built, but abandoned for some reason.
Eating food is already a huge part of Crimson Desert's core gameplay. Spamming consumable dishes in the middle of a fight is a surefire way to keep yourself alive, despite the muscle cramps it's probably giving your protagonist, and scavenging for edible bits in between encounters takes up a significant chunk of time too.
