Crimson Desert offers no support for Intel GPUs — developer Pearl Abyss says 'please refer to the refund policy'

A screenshot from the game Crimson Desert, showing intense melee combat gameplay.

If you haven't been paying attention to gaming news, folks have been hyping new single-player action RPG Crimson Desert pretty hard lately. To be fair, it's a great game, with deep action combat, a sprawling open world to explore, and killer current-generation graphics.
