Crimson Desert: The all-you-can-eat video game divides critics

Video game fans and big, blockbuster releases have had an uneasy relationship in recent years. As so-called triple-A games get more expensive to make, the publishers behind them are accused of taking fewer risks and failing to try new things. But highly anticipated new release Crimson Desert asks a different question - what if a big-budget, graphically advanced game tried to do absolutely everything? The ambitious action-adventure's been compared to a buffet, presenting players with a smorgasbord of ideas, gameplay styles and quests to gorge on. While some have praised it as a feast, others have found it overstuffed, with some undercooked morsels behind the impressive presentation.
