You want 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, that you must have established the Greymane camp throughout Chapter 3 of the principle recreation to have the ability to play the brand new open world content material, which incorporates exploration, naval gameplay, and just about the whole lot 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 plenty of their backstory, plenty of their motivations throughout the principle recreation. Now, it is successfully an epilogue for all three characters. What are they doing after? They are not essentially collectively anymore and touring collectively. In spite of everything of this, what’s Oongka going to do on the planet? What’s Damiane going to do on the planet? What’s Kliff going to do on the 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 you can play although.”
Whereas finishing the principle Crimson Desert storyline is not any imply feat (it’s an enormous recreation that many are nonetheless soldiering by even now!), it is smart that any epilogue story DLC must have this requirement somewhat than be baked into the principle marketing campaign to keep away from spoilers.
Certainly, Powers made this level on the present. “It will smash the story for those who are targeted on that stuff,” he mentioned. “If you would like open world content material, in order for you to have the ability to entry all that stuff, you are able to do it very early within the recreation. If you would like story targeted content material, you then’ve in all probability already overwhelmed the story. So you’ll proceed alongside that.”
Nonetheless, it is value noting that not that many have truly accomplished Crimson Desert’s most important story, in share phrases at the very least. In keeping with official Steam achievements knowledge, 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 recreation full of a whole bunch, 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.
