Crimson Desert is set to be one of the biggest releases of the year and many players are curious if it will have character creation or any kind of customization.
Here is a breakdown of how the game’s character system works.
Crimson Desert does not have any kind of character creation. You simply play as Kliff a man who has lost his family. While there isn’t character creation, there are some forms of character customization for Kliff mostly in the form of armor and headgear that you can equip. Although, these will affect your stats and abilities in combat.
The game is a single-player RPG, not an MMO or other style of game which usually relies on your own custom character. There is a contained story being told in Crimson Desert and that is why you are playing a named protagonist and not a random person.
Here is a description of Kliff and the journey he goes on in the game:
“On the continent of Pywel, the rival factions of Pailune maintained a tense balance. At Kliff’s side stood his steadfast Greymane comrades, but a devastating ambush in the deep of night by their sworn enemies the Black Bears leaves members of the Greymanes dead or scattered across the continent.
Kliff—having lost his family in all but name—is determined to reunite with the survivors and rebuild the faction.
But on a journey where alliances are forged, dangers abound, and mysterious factions are uncovered, Kliff will meet those who seek to upend the very order of the continent and face a mission unlike any he has ever known.”
