Following its highly anticipated launch last night, Crimson Desert, the new open-world RPG from Pearl Abyss, has seen a significant influx of players eager to dive into its expansive world. While some are undoubtedly enjoying the experience, a substantial portion of the player base is encountering a critical issue: the game’s unresponsive and clunky control scheme. Player feedback, exemplified by comments such as, “I genuinely thought my controller wasn’t working,” highlights the profound frustration. These widespread control complaints are leading many players to consider or actively request refunds just hours after the game’s release.
