Crimson Desert’s bafflingly convoluted controls are already frustrating players: ‘That’s basic f*cking video game functionality’

Crimson Desert has been criticized for its control issues, making gameplay challenging and frustrating for players. Many players struggle with remembering key combinations for basic actions, and while using a controller improves the experience, it is still not perfect. Discussions on Reddit reveal widespread dissatisfaction, with players calling the controls among the worst in modern gaming. The absence of a feature to rebind actions, such as sprint and crouch, further exacerbates the problem. Despite the game's expansive world and enjoyable puzzles, the awkward controls and erratic movement mechanics detract from the overall experience. Players are hopeful for updates from Pearl Abyss to address these control issues.
