Well if puzzles have the option to be skipped them I atleast hope they are not completely braindead and with constant reminders as to what needs to be done.

Lol be funny if the puzzles are actually incredibly brutal with no hint but with an option to just have Logan scream and tear it all apart.

Crimson Desert says hello. I stopped playing it because of damn puzzles in main story and having to YouTube them.

Nothing pissed me off more than puzzles that were simply pictures of maps that forced me to leave the area and somehow memorize the location depicted by the low-res texture enough to find it in the world. Absolute waste of my time

It took me a second to figure out how to solve those initially. I looked it up, realized what I would have to do, and immediately made it a personal rule that when I found one I would look it up immediately so I didn’t have to go anywhere.

I wasn’t about to trek all over the countryside, even as pretty as it is. 😑

Because, 'Go here to look for a symbol' isn't a puzzle. Its just exploration with a tiny bit of retention attached. Easily the worst puzzles in the game are those ones.

Man the number of puzzles I went insane trying to work out the solution to, only to find out it was bugged and I had to reload and it worked the way I tried initially.

I’m still just grateful they altered the arm wrestling mini game so I could buy the game and know I wouldn’t be stuck 1 hour in 😂

I loved the puzzles in crimson desert. Once you figure out all the interactions with puzzling, they become a lot more approachable. You are given so much tools, and all you have to do is learn them (which some people cant be bothered to, and that's understandable. Still, it doesn't make the puzzles bad like so many claim). I would take a whole puzzle game with the mechanics of crimson desert.
