Crimson Desert PR Manager Defends Complex Controls, Advises Players to Be Patient

Upon its highly anticipated release, Crimson Desert has begun to receive initial feedback from gamers. Among the common points of discussion, many players have highlighted concerns regarding the game’s control scheme, describing it as intricate and not immediately intuitive.

In response to community calls for a “simplified control” option, WillJPowers, the PR team lead for Crimson Desert, addressed the feedback. He suggested that players simply require more time to familiarize themselves with the system, implying that proficiency will develop naturally through continued gameplay.

WillJPowers drew an analogy between mastering Crimson Desert’s controls and learning to ride a bicycle:

“Think of it like riding a bicycle: [the skill] comes naturally once you learn. It takes time.”
