The reviews for Crimson Desert started arriving yesterday, and the new fantasy RPG from Pearl Abyss is currently sitting at 78% on Metacritic. Turmoil has spread across the collective internet that the release didn't even manage to reach into the eighties, prompting devs involved in Palworld and the Ori series to speak out in favor of the game.
"The reviews have come in and it sits on a 78 on Metacritic," Thomas Mahler, CEO and creative director of Moon Studios, said on Twitter. "And to most gamers, that means it’s pretty much a waste of time."
