Reviews
I've tried a few times to get into this game, Its just junk theres way too much going on and the core gameplay is mid.
Um dos jogos mais chatos e complicados que já joguei
As a new player this game is an absolute nightmare. WTF
pior suporte que ja vi, patetico, vc tem q implorar para resolver um problema e mesmo assim não resolvem.
I want to leave but I keep coming back
trash
so meh
good
Black Desert has flashy combat and a beautiful world, but good luck seeing either through the avalanche of menus, pop-ups, currencies, and cash shop prompts. The UI is so cluttered it feels like you're fighting the interface more than the monsters. Then there's the aggressive monetization, with plenty of mechanics that give off strong pay-to-win vibes. If you're looking for a fair MMORPG, I'd look elsewhere. This one's an easy pass.
