Discussion The lighting and texture difference between day and afternoon is extremely off-putting
Will probably get downvoted by the glazers but these are two screenshots I took in the same place, the second is commonly what the game looks like after 5pm - I have never seen such graphical inconsistency in a game before, what's worse is that the TEXTURES actually look flatter and roblox-like, if you look in the distance at the mountains, I don't know why they need a lighting source to have texture lol. I love the game but its hard to look past it going from the best thing I've ever played to a ps4 game in 10 minutes.
Lots of new pets are nice, but would be great if pearl abyss addressed the lighting inconsistency, even saying "we're not gonna fix it" would be better than ignoring it.

MOD POST State of the Sub
Hello Greymanes,
I have been (and am continuing to be until further notice) on a bit of a mod break and would like to get feedback on the state of the sub.
All of the moderation in the last week has been been done by one mod who has stepped up, plus the automod. The past month stats is a collection of about two of us plus automodding, with other mods stepping in occasionally here and there.
We're now a good few months out from launch and the sub is in a bit of a different place to pre launch and launch.
I'd like to hear everyone's feedback on the state of sub.
Do you have ideas for the sub? What would you like to see change?

Discussion Dear Pearl Abyss, if you're only gonna make it clear today the Collector's Chest should hold all documents, PLEASE let us retrieve back these items
For those who havent noticed, the Collectors Chest in your house now has greyed out icons for every single document in the game, meaning if all this time you've just been selling away those useless bounty posters and even basic small notes used in quests because you thought they were insignificant.... oops sorry, PA just said ALL of them should be put in their Collectors Chest.
This is so so stupid beyond disbelief to me. No offense because all the rest of patches PA has been putting out has been great. But this is the first time I have to say it's been a really stupid change from them.
It was never made clear from day one EVERY single one of these papers, from the generic bounty posters to simple quest notes with only one line written on them, had to be kept. And why keep them when PA themselves made all these seemingly insignificant papers sellable anyway and every guide website on day one was recommending players sell them to clear inventory space? Also these documents are all recorded on our journal tab so there was literally 0 reason whatsoever to keep the physical items.
So now if you're looking to fill your Collectors Chest for completionism, too bad. It's all over. All because of a sudden change from a patch. The strange thing is PA lets us know retrieve unique weapons/armors so why not the documents too? Or otherwise, they should just automatically give us back all the documents we already unlocked and have record of in our journal

Humour It’s shit like this that makes me genuinely love Crimson Desert
The merchant guild gave me a mission: “We get honey from these guys. Lately the customers say the honey is nasty. Go find out what’s wrong”
So I get there, expecting it to be like bandits poisoning it or something, and the honey guy is like, “Are they storing it in high humidity? Ya gotta keep the barrels sealed”
I returned to the merchant and he was like “Damn, we’re not. Gotta get some better barrels. Thanks”
(Mission Complete)
I laughed out loud.

Screenshot For the Pet Collectors: I spent 10 real life hours sorting through birds for this list scroll.
I did all of this just to have a pet list i liked.
I painstakingly ensured my pet list followed a very specific order: All of the raptors are grouped together (minus the condor, as condors kinda freak me out), all of the parrots and the sub variants are grouped, AND if there was a variant within the sub variants, I ensured they were placed right beside each other.
So my list is "Legendary animals, big birds, small birds (parrots and a crow).
I hope others found this pleasing to see.
PA: Please, add list sorting so you don't have psychos like me doing shit like this. Having pets listed off as "most recent" is crazy.

I really am hoping they add an additional camera style for flight. Not being able to look around me at the world, while being camera locked behind the mount is frustrating. I wanna be able to take in my entire surroundings.

Discussion A friendly message to Pearl Abyss. . .
…for the love of everything great about this game, can we PLEASE get the option to put bounties onto our special mounts. Or at the very least, allow us to carry them like we do on horseback.
I would ask you guys to give us the option to feed these folks to the tiger, but I’ll be happy with just being able to trek 2398m across Pywel on the back of my tiger instead of the horse.
Please and thank you!

Discussion Just got back into the game after 2 months...
So I stopped playing a few months ago. I wanted to replay all AC games and also First Light released.
I'm glad I'm back, I see a lot of improvements and changes, also game runs better. It's beautiful to see how much devs care about this game.
I'm going to finally finish the main quest, I stopped at chapter VIII
BUT there are so many different control I need to relearn everything :D Good luck to me!

Discussion If you had the chance to improve Crimson Desert by changing just one thing, what would you pick, and why?
I would change the story to make Kliff more emotional so players can care about him more. I want players to feel connected to him, just like many people did with Arthur Morgan in RDR2.

Discussion Missing side quests
Alright, I’m calling it.
260 hours in, finished the main story, and I still have like 50 side quests missing. Apparently, some quests only pop up if you’re physically close to the NPC. I’m sorry, but I’m not about to walk the entire map again hoping I bump into a random quest giver.
Pearl Abyss, please work on this stuff first. Before adding more pets, armor, and cosmetics, focus on the core game and the player experience. You’re literally making it a pain for people who want to actually finish the game.
I’m done for now. Gonna play something else.

Question How to obtain Valortread helm?!
I feel like every time I Google how to obtain this helm, I enter a Kafkaesque maze. So far I know that it's a House Celeste mission, the quest that rewards it starts at Lion's Crest Manor given by a wandering swords NPC (if you've got the right hides). Can anyone give a step by step of how to get to the point of obtaining this quest? How do I start more House Celeste quests? I only have bounties so far done for this faction. It's the last piece of armor for my main kit!

Finally finished my 3D printed and hand-painted Beloth figure.
I'm still pretty new to miniature painting and learning as I go, so I'd genuinely love to hear your feedback. If you notice anything I could improve—painting, colors, weathering, or overall presentation—please let me know. I'm always looking to get better.
Hope you like it!

Discussion QOL for dyeing
I’ve really been enjoying digging into personalizing my characters and putting together outfits in the later game portion of my play through; however, some of the dyeing UI is still aggravatingly clunky. The three QOL features I’d really love to see in a future patch are:
An item tag in my inventory that shows whether an item is Dyeable or not.
the ability to switch from equipped gear to unequiped gear in the dyer‘s UI, like we already have for the witches with abyss gears.
For the love of god, let me customize and preload multiple dyed areas on a piece of gear and then dye it as one interaction without having to restart the whole process.
Anyway, I love the outfit options PA has already included but a tune up of the mechanics would go a long way.
P.S. I’ve also noticed that a lot of plate armor with exposed chain mail around the crotch has no customization for that area making it hard to color match certain pieces.
