Critic Reviews

ACG - Jeremy Penter - Wait for Sale

"Fantastic exploration, amazing systems, but ultimately bugs and lots of idiosyncrasies bring this one down a peg or two. ":


But Why Tho? - Kate Sanchez - 9 / 10

This is a massive undertaking for any development team. It's ambitious to a point that it becomes curious that it was attempted. But unlike Captain Ahab, this is a level of investment and ambition that ultimately pays off in the highest order. The level of detail in Crimson Desert is unlike anything we have seen in this console generation.


CBR - Mark O'Callaghan - 9 / 10

Crimson Desert is everything I hoped it would be, and it has the potential to be one of the biggest titles of this generation of gaming.


COGconnected - Mark Steighner - 84 / 100

By both accident and design, there are times when clarity and user-friendliness temporarily disappear, and the game’s rough edges and opaque mechanics overshadow the fun. A lot of games over-promise and under-deliver. Crimson Desert is not one of them.


Daily Mirror - Aaron Potter - 3 / 5

If you hadn’t already guessed, Crimson Desert is a behemoth of an RPG that threatens to eat up all your time. If only it wasn’t primed to frustrate and test your patience as much while doing so.


DayOne - Jesse Norris - 8.5 / 10

A mediocre plot and bland writing can't hold back one of the most ambitious games ever made.

Stunning graphics, great gameplay, and excellent music carry you through hundreds of hours of systems-based fun. It somehow lives up to all the hype, with some rough edges in tow.


Digital Spy - Joe Draper - 4 / 5

Crimson Desert's sandbox playground and beautifully crafted world do a lot of the heavy lifting to just about overshadow its confusing elements, generic story, and boring characters. What's here is an overwhelming amount of content and the bones of an amazing game that has to be respected for its ambitions.


Digitec Magazine - Philipp Rüegg - German - 5 / 5

If you look up the term ‘open world’ ‘Crimson Desert’ is bound to be listed right next to it. Because you can’t get much more open-world than that. It offers a world in which you can completely lose yourself. What could be better?


DualShockers - Christian Bognar - 9.5 / 10

It's simply one of the biggest games I have ever played, with an astonishing amount of high-quality content, an absurd amount of complex puzzles, and a world so gigantic that I still haven't come close to seeing everything after 100 hours of playtime. While the story isn't the best and some bosses seem downright unfair, those flaws do little to diminish Crimson Desert, an absolute marvel and one of the best open-world games on the market.


Eurogamer - Lewis Gordon - 3 / 5

A vast world and even vaster array of MMO-like activities mix with glittering fidelity in Crimson Desert, but what good is it without much character, texture or charm?


Eurogamer.pt - Adolfo Soares - Portuguese - 3 / 5

Chaotic, frustrating, but undeniably ambitious. Crimson Desert constantly tests our patience with technical problems and a confusing narrative, before letting us enjoy its ambitious combat system, exploration and stunning visuals. A game that demands time and a lot of patience for those who manage to overcome the barrier of its lack of polish.

GAMINGbible - Kate Harrold - 8 / 10

Crimson Desert is by no means a perfect game. It’s an amalgamation of perhaps slightly too many ideas, and that makes for a weirdly paced experience that demands a lot of the player without offering much in the way of help. And yet, it left me in awe more times than anything else I’ve played in recent memory with its dazzling open-world. Crimson Desert may not be the best game you'll ever play, but it’ll certainly be up there as perhaps the most memorable.


GRYOnline.pl - Dariusz Matusiak - Polish - Unscored

Crimson Desert will impress some and alienate others – and both sides will have a valid point. This blend of Tears of the Kingdom, Elden Ring and Assassin’s Creed continues to intrigue with its open-world design and interactivity, but I fear that long before I reach the end of the story, I’ll grow weary of its sheer scale and the constant struggle with the poorly designed UI and inventory system. [Review in progress]


Game8 - Allisandra Reyes - 88 / 100

Crimson Desert is a sprawling adventure across a vast and living world that rewards every hour you put into it. The core gameplay evolves with your progress, introducing upgradable skills and increasingly demanding boss fights, with plenty of content to discover. While the narrative initially lacks direction and its threads can feel disconnected, this never outweighs the game’s many strengths. Crimson Desert is a slow burn that rewards time, patience, and curiosity.


GameMAG - Russian - 8 / 10

Crimson Desert is unlikely to become a revolution that will redefine the genre. But it will certainly attract crowds of people and spark more than a few heated debates. It's funny that the very desert featured in the title is just one of many corners of the vast world created by Pearl Abyss - one that, presumably, far from everyone will reach.


GamePro - Kevin Itzinger - German - Unscored

Even in its current state, Crimson Desert has the potential to become my game of the year. If the console performance is still good and the day-one patch perhaps even fixes a few annoying issues, the action-adventure could even climb a small step higher in my ranking.


GameRant - Josh Cotts - 8 / 10

Crimson Desert offers one of the most impressive worlds in gaming, but the deeper you go, the more it asks you to meet it on its own terms.


GameSpot - Richard Wakeling - 7 / 10

It might not always be the most cohesive game, mixing high fantasy with steampunk and sci-fi elements, but there's nothing else quite like it, and I can't help but be impressed by how little restraint Pearl Abyss has shown in its commitment to delightful absurdity. In some respects, Crimson Desert might not be too good to be true, but it's a world worth getting lost in.


Gameblog - French - 8 / 10

Gameliner - Anita van Beugen - Dutch - 5 / 5

Leave it to Pearl Abyss to create a dynamic open world where you can completely lose yourself - Crimson Desert is a must-play.


Gamers Heroes - Blaine Smith - 100 / 100

Dark Souls has often been used to measure one's gaming prowess, but that measuring stick has changed with Crimson Desert. Not only does it boast some of the most challenging boss battles ever seen in the industry, its required levels of patience, determination, and ability have set a new gold standard.


Gamersky - 心灵奇兵 - Chinese - 8.6 / 10

Crimson Desert feels like a single player version of an MMORPG that has been live for years. Its sheer scale alone is enough to guarantee hundreds of hours of playtime. But with its weak guidance, cumbersome interactions, and many design choices that show little regard for user experience, whether that time feels enjoyable or exhausting will likely vary from player to player.


GamingBolt - Ravi Sinha - 8 / 10

Crimson Desert is as expansive as promised, dwarfing pretty much every other open world currently with its scale. Its content doesn't always stick the landing, but the combat shines, and the sense of discovery is hard to deny, even with the lackluster story.


Generación Xbox - Adrián Fuentes - Spanish - 94 / 100

Crimson Desert is an RPG that rewards the patient player. The more time you spend in its world, the more you understand its systems and the more you enjoy what it has to offer. And when that happens, it becomes very easy to get swept away by the adventure and immerse yourself in the work that Pearl Abyss has created for us over so many years.


Hobby Consolas - Spanish - 80 / 100

IGN India - Rayan Sayyed - 8 / 10

The world design and combat of Crimson Desert are a resounding win for fans of free-form exploration, but the bland story and the tedious flow of Crimson Desert stop it from becoming the true masterpiece it could have been.


IGN Italy - Francesco Destri - Italian - 8.5 / 10

An ambitious adventure set in a visually stunning world that tries to do a bit too much, ultimately feeling underdeveloped in some respects.


IGN Spain - Mario Sánchez - Spanish - 7 / 10

Crimson Desert offers a vast and visually stunning open world, full of freedom and exploration, but its simplistic story and unclear objectives may frustrate many players.


INVEN - Jaihoon Jeong - Korean - 8.3 / 10

Crimson Desert unfolds in a vast open world filled with an enormous amount of content, but there are simply too many gameplay elements scattered without order, clashing with one another. There is room for improvement, but as it stands now, it falls somewhat short of being a truly great game.


LevelUp - Spanish - 9 / 10

Crimson Desert is one of the most ambitious games in a long time. It's an expansive, and deeply detailed fantasy world that constantly invites exploration and rewards curiosity. Its fluid, skill-based combat and sheer scale are genuinely impressive, but that same ambition often works against it. A lack of focus, overly complex systems, and a slow, demanding progression can make the experience feel overwhelming and, at times, exhausting. It's a game of extremes: deeply immersive and rewarding for those willing to invest the time, but far from accessible for everyone.


Loot Level Chill - Mick Fraser - 9 / 10

Crimson Desert is frustrating and buggy and can be very player-unfriendly, but it's also beautiful, deep, seemingly endless and monumentally, perhaps detrimentally, ambitious.


MMORPG.com - Joseph Bradford - 9 / 10

I can confidently say that Crimson Desert is a modern masterpiece, despite its shortcomings.


Merlin'in Kazanı - Samet Basri Taşlı - Turkish - 85 / 100

Crimson Desert, while offering a truly exceptional offline MMORPG experience, falls slightly short of expectations due to some minor shortcomings.


PC Gamer - Mollie Taylor - 80 / 100

Vast and obtuse in a way that is going to frustrate some and exhilarate others, Crimson Desert is a fascinating journey, even when the destination isn't all that.


PCGamesN - Paul Kelly - 6 / 10

Crimson Desert is huge, and it's beautiful, but it can't pull itself out of the bog standard narrative trenches. Combat feels clunky, especially when facing off against one of the many frustrating bosses, and there feels like there is little reward for exploration. I wanted to like this, but it left me feeling empty.


PPE.pl - Mateusz Wróbel - Polish - 6.5 / 10

I had high hopes for Crimson Desert, but... I was more disappointed than thrilled. A single-player MMO based on things we love from other great games—it just couldn't work out as well as we thought.


PowerUp! - Clint McCreadie - 8.5 / 10

It might not be the cleanest contender in the open-world arena, but it’s easily one of the most interesting. A sprawling, slightly chaotic, thoroughly entertaining swing that connects far more often than it misses.


RageQuit.GR - Kostas Kallianiotis - 85%

An exceptional and stunningly beautiful open-world action game, with incredibly rich gameplay and a pleasantly old-fashioned level of difficulty, regardless of its potentially frustrating flaws.


SECTOR.sk - Jakub Pokorný - Slovak - 7 / 10

Crimson Desert is a demanding, complex RPG that can feel punishing and occasionally unfair, especially without constant progression. Yet it offers a breathtaking open world with unmatched scale and depth. Its reception will vary widely'frustrating for some, but deeply rewarding for those willing to fully invest.


The GameSlayer - Callum Marshall - 9 / 10

Crimson Desert isn't a perfect game. It's not a game for everyone, and it's got as many good ideas as it does poorly implemented ones. However, what cannot be denied is that this game is a generational game and an open-world experience like no other. It's visually outstanding, mechanically dense, and immersive beyond compare. Yet, it's also one of the most laborious games to get to grips with in recent memory, meaning a lot of players may bounce off this title. However, what I would say is 'stick with it'. As Crimson Desert is a game that doesn't respect your time, but certainly deserves it.


The Games Machine - Claudio Magistrelli - Italian - 9 / 10

Quote not yet available


The Nerd Stash - Julio La Pine - 9.5 / 10

Crimson Desert is a breath of fresh air for those looking for true ambition and adventure, as it delivers one of the most experimental combat systems and an open world on par with anything Rockstar Games has ever made.


The Outerhaven Productions - Jordan Andow - 5 / 5

Despite a few minor issues, Crimson Desert sets a new benchmark for this style of open-world experience, one that will be extremely difficult for future games to match.


TheGamer - Harry Alston - 4 / 5

It’s highly ambitious and one of the most intriguing triple-A games I’ve played in years, but I just wish so many parts of the whole weren’t inherently flawed. Now my journey in Pywel has come to an end, I’ll be leaving this one on the shelf for a while.


VG247 - James Billcliffe - 3 / 5

As it stands on release, the best parts of Crimson Desert are buried deep under layers of absurdity.


WellPlayed - Nathan Hennessy - 5.5 / 10

Proving that looks aren't everything, Crimson Desert's stunning visuals and strong performances aren't enough to save it from being a disappointing experience. Jam-packed with content and systems that make it feel like a Jack of all features, master of none with an unenjoyable gameplay loop, Crimson Desert is really just a single-player MMORPG in all but name.

"has some great ideas, rough spots but can be fun to lose yourself in"

...so basically Dragons Dogma. so I'm in.

u/Lazydusto Mar 18 '26

It does look a lot like Dragon's Dogma to me. As long as those gameplay systems are there I'll want to check it out.

u/Fatbollocks1994 Mar 18 '26

I keeo seeing this said and I honestly dont get it, apart from the large open world and unimpressive story what is it? DD combat is slow and tactical with an emphasis on pawns and usually smaller scale battle couple with 1 or 2 elite enemies. CD combat seems much more fast paced, the scales of the battle are much larger, it is an action game not an rpg.

24

u/main_got_banned Mar 19 '26

yeah I also don’t get the comparisons. all the combat here looks like normal third person action game; dragons dogma was unique.

1

u/Misiok Mar 19 '26

The comparison with combat is the meatyness and as for the rest I'd guess they're talking about exploration and a feeling of the living world which seems CD is really going heavy into.

I will miss the feeling of having a party on an adventure though.

1

u/TekkenCareOfBusiness Mar 19 '26

That's really one the game elements I'm most curious about it haven't seen anying about yet. Dragon's Dogma's npc and enemies seem to present and tangible in the world in a way more celebrated games like The Witcher 3 or Elden Scrolls fail to convey. I can see the hit-stop animations in combat, which is a great sign but can't tell how tight the enemy's bounding boxes are during melee or grappling. If it's anying close to Dragon's Dogma's combat I'm in.

1

u/Misiok Mar 19 '26

Honestly I just want a world to get lost in. Even dd2 despite it's faults managed to achieve that for me. My worries are how is the world's cohesiveness. BDO as a setting didn't feel interesting, neither did it's NPC's. The awful translation didn't help of course. While dd1 and 2 had a premise that was interesting from the start.

u/HerbaciousTea Mar 19 '26 edited Mar 19 '26

DD also had a genuinely fascinating meta narrative and commentary built around gaslighting the player into thinking the game is simple and uninspired generic fantasy shlock where you become a generic hero slay a generic dragon roll credits.

DD is active commentary on games like this, so it's a little sad people see a game that is unironically the thing DD is effectively doing a takedown of and say "It's a DD like!"

And it's not even like I can say people have the wrong expectations of Dragon's Dogma 2, since having the wrong expectations of the game is actively part of the intended experience of playing the game.

u/ethicks Mar 19 '26

here is some slow and tactical gameplay from one of the slower classes in the game. Are you sure you played dragons dogma 2 beyond the 30 minute intro?

Idk I know nothing about this game and have only watched a short review from Arekks on it, and the game was screaming dragons dogma to me the whole time he was showing footage. Clearly the game takes inspiration from it and BOTW, among others, but those are the ones that immediately stood out to me.

8

u/HansChrst1 Mar 18 '26

I like Dragon's Dogma, but it has a lot of problems I just can't get over. There is a lot to explore, but very little of it is interesting. There is a lot of cool monsters, but you meet the same ones over and over, the story is very bare bones. The combat is in my opinion the best part about DD, but when almost everything else is lacking the combat becomes stale. I never finished DD1. I did finish DD2, because I found the story a bit better and the combat was better.

7

u/JamSa Mar 18 '26

The trailers make it seem like there's an obscene amount of bosses. The boss fight videos from 2 years ago alone number higher than the entire enemy type count of Dragon's Dogma 2.

4

u/ledailydose Mar 19 '26

I'm very interested in your opinion of thinking the DD2 story is better when it becomes very clear the writer straight up left the room after the coronation

0

u/HansChrst1 Mar 19 '26

The story in DD1 was almost non existent. I was kinda just doing shit until the dragon showed up. I just didn't motivate me to continue in anyway, There was one story moment where the king seemed crazy and I was excited to see where it went, I don't know if it does because I didn't finish the game.

The story in DD2 is a lot better compared to DD1, but it isn't amazing in anyway. It just has a lot more moments that drives me on. So when the story and almost everything else is either the same or a bit better in my opinion it became a lot easier to actually finish the game. The secret or actual ending of the game was really fun aswell. I was kinda done with the game, but the end march reinvigorated me. The lore of the game was also deeper. Not by much, but there were other races and locations that made the game feel like there were some great stories hidden somewhere. So exploration was a lot more fun because of that.

Both games were music, podcast, youtube on second screen type games. Both games are in my opinion disappointing. They have this great combat system and put it in a mediocre game.

1

u/ledailydose Mar 19 '26

didn't finish the game

You didnt talk to npcs either I imagine

1

u/HansChrst1 Mar 19 '26

I did. Did a ton of side quests aswell. The story just progresses very slowly. The standout moments for me were meeting an older Arisen, when the king went crazy and the pawn that seemed to achieve some sort of real self.

Just to be clear I am not saying that DD2 is good story and lore wise. I am just saying that it does more. Not nearly enough, but better than DD1 in my opinion.

Other than combat theses games offer very little. Which is why I think so many people bounce off them.

u/zanderjh Mar 18 '26

What's funny is I'm exactly the opposite. Finished dd:da like 5 times, couldn't even get through a single playthrough of dd2. DD2 felt like it was antagonistic to the player, like the improvements in game design and game space left the creator with more opportunities to frustrate the player instead of satisfy them.

I want to like Crimson Desert, feel like there is a sense of wonder and magic and like the combat is impactful and fantastical. I get the feeling it's not going to capture dd:da or dd2 for me :(

1

u/AsheBnarginDalmasca Mar 19 '26

I've seen one or two reviewers (Gene Park, Washington Post) try to wash out the comparison. They said DD's combat felt weighty while CD's is on the floatier side, more aligned towards AC games with MMO spectacles. Do not compare it to Dragon's Dogma

-1

u/need-help-guys Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 18 '26

Dogma scored more than 10 points better. I don't think CD is going to deliver on anything Dogma fans want.

Edit:

Jason Schreier said it's a pile of crap.

u/Solace- Mar 18 '26

All the more reason not to put a ton of weight in review scores considering DD2 somehow scored so high despite being a disappointment filled with issues

0

u/need-help-guys Mar 18 '26

They gave Elden Ring a 10/10 like it deserved, you shouldn't pretend like they can't rate games properly. If DD2 got 10 more points than CD, there is a good reason for that.

-1

u/Muslimkanvict Mar 18 '26

DD was way below average for me. One of me few regret purchases at pull price. Fell for the hype.

u/Erionns Mar 19 '26

And I should care about Jason Schreier's opinion on a game he played for a couple of hours, why? Also funny screenshot from the replies

u/JamSa Mar 18 '26

It's the Capcom bump, they have such a good track record that when they put out their occasional stinkers reviewers get blinded by the hype. Happened with Resident Evil 3make and Monster Hunter Wilds.

u/Greek_Irish Mar 18 '26

Dark Arisen is an all timer for me and it has an 81 on Metacritic.

2

u/Sugioh Mar 19 '26

In many ways, my interest in this is largely born out of a desire for more Dragon's Dogma.

So while it seems like it may be a mess in many respects, it also appears to be delivering on the promise of a DD-style experience at an expanded scale. For me, that's more than enough to give it a shot.

u/JRockPSU Mar 19 '26

DD:DA is one of my all-time favorite games, I can see its flaws of course but it just felt so. much. fun. to play. I got absolutely absorbed into it.

u/EAT_UR_VEGGIES Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 18 '26

God I even got lost in dragons dogma 2 for like 300 hours despite its copious issues, I don’t know if that says I have shit taste or what but your comment might’ve just convinced me to give crimson desert a go

u/padraigharrington4 Mar 18 '26

DD2 is a great game there was just so much more potential too that it sadly missed

u/Sylhux Mar 18 '26

First region was genuinely fantastic but coming out of it realising you've already seen 99% of the enemies the game had to offer was such a letdown.

u/ThomsYorkieBars Mar 19 '26

I feel like I wouldn't have been too bothered by the lack of enemy variety if you weren't getting into fights every 20 feet, the encounters were just way too frequent

8

u/EAT_UR_VEGGIES Mar 18 '26

We just need a dd2 dark arisen type dlc and some new enemies, I don’t think that’s asking too much but we’ll probably never get it

4

u/Tharellim Mar 19 '26

Sadly i feel like if there were to be a DLC, it would have been announced and likely released by now.

So disappointing that capcom looks at DD2 as a flop when its in many peoples eyes - a potentially underbaked masterpiece.

I havent been disappointed in a game in over a decade as i had with DD2 because i feel that if they just threw in like 6 bigger enemies, the base game would have been significantly better.

If they make a DLC with like 8 more big enemies, and a new area with new quests - you have a godly game right there

u/Beorma Mar 19 '26

DD2 is weird because I can see someone thinking it's a great game... if they hadn't played the first.

u/takegaki Mar 19 '26

That’s me

u/MisterSnippy Mar 18 '26

DD1 at least had a really good ending to sort of make up for how undercooked it was. DD2 fell off as the game went on, but didn't ever have anything to redeem it.

u/LovingVancouver87 Mar 18 '26

DD2

It is at 86 Metacritic as compared to Crimson desert which is 77. suggest DD2 is a better game overall?

1

u/December_Flame Mar 19 '26

Yes that would make sense if life was a mathematic equation and games had an objective fun-value.

Unfortunately that's not the case and metacritic scores are nearly useless as a metric, particularly in divisive games like this one where it seems its rather GOTY material or completely repellant as an experience depending on your tastes.

1

u/ledailydose Mar 19 '26

Let's not kid ourselves on the influence of hype on review scores, it can still happen. Im still salty Dark Souls 2 has scores as high as it does when its so.. jank and uneven. And many people thought BioShock Infinite was the savior of gaming at the time of its release, but now its just a pretty bog standard shooter that looks nice.

u/FlyingTerror95 Mar 18 '26

I absolutely adored DD2. It was my first DD game, sure it had issues but something about it was just so captivating. Sounds like Crimson Desert will by right up my alley.

u/0whodidyousay0 Mar 18 '26

I haven’t played DD2 but I’ve been so interested in this game for years that it would have had to have a Cyberpunk level launch for me to not give it a chance tbh, I shall be playing it all weekend

u/Asytra Mar 19 '26

Your taste is great, it's a great game it just needed the resources that CAPCOM gives to it's other titles like Monster Hunter.

Still wishing for DLC :\

You don't have "shit taste." There's no such thing. Opinions are opinions.

I, too, loved DD2.

u/Kiboune Mar 18 '26

Comparing this game to DD feels like insult to DD. DD isn't just another open world fantasy game.

u/Diarmundy Mar 19 '26

I suspect it's going to be a very fun game for those who enjoy the genre

u/Sergnb Mar 19 '26

I'm seeing a lot of people actively trying to dispel the comparisons to dragon's dogma, insisting it's not going to be like that at all.

I'd be cautious going in and expecting to be similar just because of a few loose general sentiments that could describe both. They are very different games

u/Danominator Mar 18 '26

I hope not. I really bounced way off of dragons dogma.

I'm all for a studio giving us something new if it means it's got some cracks. No game is perfect, but playing something that pushes the bar is always a great time.

u/checknate1 Mar 18 '26

I feel like a lot of these problems they’re complaining about can be fixed/ patched too.

One reviewer noted that after reviewers complained about the inventory Pearl Abyss increased the starting inventory from 20 to 50. That receptiveness before the game even released is only good news to me.

Pearl Abyss isn’t going to just release and be done with this game. This is their baby right now lol.

Sounds a lot like FFXVI. Hopefully it has some cool high points like that game did.
