Crimson Desert | PS5 Pro I was on the fence to buy this game but decided to pick it up and boy am I glad I did. I was up till 2am on a work day. I couldn't put it down. Visuals one of the best...ever. Seriously impressive - amazing natural rtgi, pin sharp, super dense, incredible draw distance in a world that feels alive. My jaw was on the floor. Even if the game was bad, the open world alone is worth experiencing. Can't wait to see more. It looks stunning on the Pro. No glitches or fps issues a few hours in. Gameplay Combat is amazing, I'm truly surprised that people complain about it. It feels improved over AC, Batman Arkham, and Witcher 3. It's fast, responsive, impact feels weighty with alot of depth. The world feels alive with NPCs, animals, and items that are interactive. Story I'm not very far but so far it has my interest more than many other games in this genre. I'm usually quick too skip cutscenes but I find this interesting so far. The voice acting is good, no issues with lip sync as others have blown out of proportion. Controls Totally overblown. It's not as laggy feeling as a Red Dead redemption 2 as others have said. It felt like it was in the first section until I got to the open world and now it feels normal. Is it perfect no, is it clunky I don't think so. Running around, traversing, engaging the environment, combat, switching weapons, managing items, it's been effortless so far I don't see what the issue is. Perhaps it will get more complicated as I level up Summary Only a few hours in but so far this is money well spent. Haven't played an open world game that hooked me so quickly. Best part is it feels new and fresh it's not another AC game.

Quick preliminary setup guide for Crimson Desert on PC and PS5. I have only had very little time with the game. But this is how I would set up HDR on a 1000 and 2000 nits TV. Picture 1 is my settings for a 1000 nits TV and picture 3 for a 2000 nits TV. HDR is implemented the same way on PC and PS5. Black levels: There are no setting to adjust black levels. Luckily they look fine, so those we don’t have to worry about. Max luminance: Max brightness is setup in-game. Set to what your TV can output on a 10% window. The game outputs the nits you set in the slider. Thats great because not all games do that. Screen brightness (exposure). The exposure slider adjusts the brightness on the whole screen. For a 1000 nits TV we want around a screen brightness (paper white) of around 203 nits. A setting of 40 looks to be around 203 nits to me. In picture 2 we can see brigntess is around 203 nits at exposure setting of 40. For a 2000 nits TV we want a higher screen brightness. When our TVs can output higher max brightness then there are room for higher screen brightness while our highlights can still pop. I suggest setting exposure to 50. In picture 4 we see screen brightness is around 280-300 nits. I won’t suggest going lower than 40 or much higher than 50 for exposure, because exposure slightly changes lower shadows and I think they will get to low or to lifted. I noticed that at night fire lights up everything with a red glow or color. It looks very unnatural. We can’t change that in-game, but maybe there will be mods for PC that corrects this. HDR overall looks punchy with great contrast and black levels.

Small detail from Crimson Desert #1 There is surprisingly a ton of objects that you can destroy in this game and the destruction physics themselves are insanely good!

I am extremely disappointed that the court has refused to put a stop to Al-Quds Day, which has long been a venue for antisemitism, hatred, intimidation and the glorification of terrorism. While the judge cited Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms, when we talk about rights we need to be clear that every person has the right to safety and security. We need to be clear that no one in Canada has the right to incite violence or free licence to intimidate and hate. The judge also said that Toronto Police Service do not need an injunction to preserve the peace. That's unbelievable! If that's the case, I fully expect that the police will immediately intervene at the first sign of hate, violence or glorification of terrorist organizations. I won't stop working to put an end to the hatred and division that runs too rampant on Canada's streets. I won't stop working to protect the greatest province in the greatest country in the world.

@ChrisAvellone @80Level I just replayed it and it is phenomenal, so thank you. If you set up a Kickstarter it would boom. There is such a community behind that game.

Representation fails when the tools were never built for you in the first place. Landmark research from Yale University, supported by the Bungie Foundation, is rebuilding hair tech to better represent Afro-textured hair in games. Read our full blog ⬇️ bungiefoundation.org/article/yalere…
