  • I’d be excited if this wasn’t going to be another exercise in bleeding money out of its player base. Black Desert online is an amazing game and I was disgustingly addicted to it for 6 months or more. Ultimately though when you are trying to upgrade to duo, tri, pen etc and you are wasting days and days on failed attempts whilst having cash shop bullshit pushed in your face the amazing gameplay starts to become not enough to make you stay.

    I still think about going back, I enjoyed it so damn much as a game but the monetisation is disgusting.






  • I did the same, beat it on PS3 back in the day and thought it was alright. However I went back to it this year just to play through the single player again as I was craving that kind of gameplay (funnily enough after playing sleeping dogs for the first time). My god is it trash, the single player campaign is the same shit over and over, I couldn’t even finish it this time it was just so fucking boring.

    Ive been playing since the first game, remember the insane hype and build up to San Andreas with the welcome to the jungle trailers but 6 I just couldn’t care less about. The franchise is dead to me, everything that made it good is gone, I just wish there was a decent alternative.


  • I haven’t played 1 or 2 personally but would echo what is being said here for the rest.

    I played p4g first and fell in love with it. P3P is pretty similar really but with slightly less QoL things going on but I don’t find it too much of a downgrade to be honest.

    Either way each one has its own story then with similarities like in spell names and the like, similar to how final fantasy is.
