Do yourself a favour in Crimson Desert and play the game with a controller

For how wildly vast and ambitious Crimson Desert is… its controls kinda suck. They're clunky, awkward, and exist in a game where there are dozens of different inputs and combinations to do any manner of things. You'll realise that almost instantly when the game asks you to perform Blinding Flash during the intro.

And hey, I know we're PC Gamer. Mouse and keyboard is absolutely my favourite way to play most games, despite having grown up for 25 years as a console enjoyer. But you owe it to yourself to play Crimson Desert on a pad...
