You see that there is potential, more than enough material to shape an epic adventure of those who mark time, but this work of the Korean studio
Pearl Abyss never gets to take advantage of all its virtues. And we have the best example in their battles. They are a sight to see, as there are few titles of the style with a combat systemas complete and profound as t
hat presented by Black Desert Online, in which combos and elusive are everything to achieve success. The problem is that the enemies to beat are so to speak stupid, that in the end these contests will be resolved in most cases in the simplest and roughest imagina
ble: crushing the same attacks again and again. Neither elusive nor super combos or anything at all; always the same. And it is a real pity.
The options are there but the magic is lost as soon as you have enemies who as a rule react late and badly to all our attacks. They do not defend themselves as they should nor do they attack with the expected forcefulness, so for many impossible stunts and
combos that we perform, we will soon stop enjoying fully battles that certainly gave for much more. Fortunately, there are the duels against
other players to improve some of these sensations, although unlike the recent Blade & Soul, the 1 vs 1 matches do not reach the desired excellence. Different case is the one of the massive battles carried out by the varied armies in which the players will be able to enlist.
Total war between factions
In the line of great classics such as Ultima Online or Everquest, this MMORPG seeks from the first moment to immerse yourself in a living and
Relate to other characters will be essential to unlock missions: you have to look for points of interest in common, and for this you need to investigate.
What does not help the black desert plot poverty . It is so unoriginal and anodyne story that counts, that after a few hours we will stop payin
g attention to what they have to tell us the many NPCs with whom we will cross the road. Even worse. Sometimes
we will not even bother to talk to them about many missions that we let slip. Such is the degree of saturation that generates, because it also makes the mistake of diluting the main plot in a myriad of inconsequential stories that little help the game.
Better sensations leaves when talking about the relationship between players, which can be grouped into large guilds capable of taking cont
rol of regions and strengths that then, of course, will have to defend against the attacks of other factions. This is where Black Desert shows its best face, as we said before, because there is nothing like a duel in epic pitched battle
s in which two hundred fighters can congregate. Explosions, acrobatic jumps followed by a strong swords, dodges at the last moment, towers falling u

The Pearl Abyss game has a huge potential, but it does not shine with the expected splendor

Beyond the intensity of the battles Black Desert also stands out for its crafts and trade system. Either alone or together with the allies in t
The world of Black Desert is full of areas of interest from which we will obtain resources directly or through the employees we hire.
With the resources in our power, which are not few precisely, we can go to various craftsmen to make all kinds of objects, in addition to b

e. We already said it before. Black Desert wants you to feel inside a virtual world alive and in constant evolution, and all these options walk in tha
t direction. Do you want to dedicate yourself to fishing? You can do it from being that rookie who spends hours on the beach to see if “catch something”, the veteran who already with his own boat sails the seas in search of the best pieces.
Even commercial routes can be established to obtain economic returns for these items. And the best thing here is that you will physica
lly see how these wagons travel from here to there with the goods; what a great detail. Also the differences between the different character classes , which although not as many as those seen in other games of the style, at least do feel un
ique. In addition there is some freedom to adapt each class of hero to our own style of combat choosing from a wide range of improvements and special abilities.
There are many options available to us, although perhaps you are missing something more in depth in some of them, and also good tuto
rials that adequately explain how to carry out these activities and the benefits they bring. The fact that they launch you on the adventure and
in a matter of minutes approach you with all these activities can scare the most painted, and others will not even realize the enormous potential that hides this fantasy world that does not always shine as it deserves.
Everything in Black Desert presents an overwhelming graphic level
The missions , for example, follow the line of what is seen in so many other MMOs, although they do not manage to catch you in the same measure. The story is bad, we said before, but also the very development of these tasks is unattractive, being mostly a
