I used to keep tabs on video games. These days I’m far out of the loop, and in the case of Crimson Desert, extremely so. Doesn’t matter though, thanks to a Slack conversation I had unexpectedly with my colleague and fellow member of The Full Nerd, Adam Patrick Murray. He explained the entire point of the game with a screenshot preview of this Kotaku link and this message: “I’m trying to see how much of the game I can play while holding the cat“
Me: That’s a big freaking cat in that screenshot.
Adam: Yeah, these cats are very large.
Me: Like bigger than a Maine Coon.
Adam: This game is all over the place in terms of proportions.
Adam: I found a kitten!
This kitten looks just like my cat did as a baby!

Me: Do they come in any other colors.
Adam: Yes. And sizes.
Adam: You pick them up and pet them to gain +5 trust.
Sold.
(Don’t @ me, I’m going to be too busy picking up kittens in whatever world and place Crimson Desert is set in. I guess it’s medieval? Whatever.)
