Despite its live service predecessor, you won't have to worry about microtransactions in the impending Crimson Desert

I think that with a game like Crimson Desert , you'd be well within your right to have an eyebrow pre-raised considering its online, sort of free-to-play (depending on where you live) predecessor Black Desert Online regarding the like of microtransactions. At a glance Crimson Desert certainly looks like it could fall into similar pitfalls if only based on vibes alone. Developer Pearl Abyss would quite like you to know that, in that regard at least, you have nothing to worry about.
