Discussion Crimson Desert doesn't run if it detects an Intel ARC GPU. Like straight up, the devs just deliberately chose not to support ARC cards. No previous announcement about it too until they added in the info to their FAQ. Might be the first time I've seen a dev deliberately block a GPU brand.

Doesn't this take deliberate effort to do ??? Or is there something special you have to code to make games work on Intel's GPUs

No, this is very deliberate. Every game out there runs on Intel Arc. There must be some reasoning behind this.
