So after all, looks like this is real and there are no tricks. If Digital Foundry could play and test it, and got pretty good information and recordings from developers, then I have no doubt anymore. At least from technical standpoint. I really get Zelda Tears of the Kingdom vibes here and based of previous hints we saw, just with a more realistic tone and better graphics. Very curious!

I'm glad the developers didn't show or announce the game too early. Now we are super hyped and don't need to wait long. Other companies show games too early and often, so when it comes out it feels old.

Crimson desert was teased like 7+ years ago btw. I'm surprised it's not vaporware since it's been shown for years as coming soon. I think they pitched the release for like 2022 or something even. Everyone who played BDO was waiting for this to release, since they teased the game to us for what seemed like years.

But we didn't see any gameplay since then and no other announcements. I don't think that a 7 year old teaser adds to exhaustion in the sense I was talking about. When we saw Crimson Desert the first time just recently, it was new experience for us to see, not a 7 year old game.
