It’s essential to have accomplished Crimson Desert’s most important storyline to start Kliff, Oongka, and Damiane’s new DLC tales, Pearl Abyss has confirmed.
Talking on Dropped Frames, Pearl Abyss’ Will Powers confirmed two entry factors for the Charting the Unknown DLC, which launches on October 29. You’ll have to have accomplished the principle storyline to play the primary entry level, which is the epilogue story content material for every of the three most important characters. The second is, it is advisable have established the Greymane camp throughout Chapter 3 of the principle sport to have the ability to play the brand new open world content material, which incorporates exploration, naval gameplay, and just about every part that’s not the brand new character-specific story DLC.
“There’s storylines for the three characters,” Powers defined. “Damiane, Oongka, and Kliff, you did not actually get to discover a number of their backstory, a number of their motivations throughout the principle sport. Now, it is successfully an epilogue for all three characters. What are they doing after? They don’t seem to be essentially collectively anymore and touring collectively. In spite of everything of this, what’s Oongka going to do on this planet? What’s Damiane going to do on this planet? What’s Kliff going to do on this planet? So there are these storylines, that are actually cool and distinctive in and of themselves.
“However then there’s additionally this storyline and this quest line round this new space of the map which you could play although.”
Whereas finishing the principle Crimson Desert storyline is not any imply feat (it’s an enormous sport that many are nonetheless soldiering via even now!), it is smart that any epilogue story DLC must have this requirement moderately than be baked into the principle marketing campaign to keep away from spoilers.
Certainly, Powers made this level on the present. “It will destroy the story for those who are targeted on that stuff,” he stated. “In order for you open world content material, if you’d like to have the ability to entry all that stuff, you are able to do it very early within the sport. In order for you story targeted content material, then you definitely’ve most likely already overwhelmed the story. So you’ll proceed alongside that.”
Nonetheless, it is value noting that not that many have really accomplished Crimson Desert’s most important story, in proportion phrases at the very least. In keeping with official Steam achievements information, simply 10.8% of all gamers have unlocked the Professional Storyteller achievement, which is awarded for finishing all most important quests. Maybe we should not be stunned by the info right here; Crimson Desert is a sport full of tons of, if not 1000’s of hours of content material, and it’s straightforward to get sidetracked. Personally, I’ve logged practically 70 hours in Crimson Desert on Steam, however am nowhere close to ending the principle story. I am unsure I ever will.
