Black Desert Online

The developers of PearlAbyss presented another adventures in the world of fantasy to the fans of this fantastic world - the game "Black Desert Online". It is not for nothing that experienced gamers jokingly note that in online "sandboxes" it is not as exciting to play as it is interesting to live. The game provides an opportunity not only to beat up dark or light, but make acquaintances, participate in the life of the guild, understand at least a little bit of the economic and political intricacies of this world.

Fairy Universe

Some analysts believe that in all fantasy worlds, locations are similar to each other, not to mention the selection of heroes. There is some truth in this, in "Black Desert Online" the player needs, in fact, to beat the enemy, complete quests, gain experience, and level up. Here, the design is in the spirit of the transition from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance, the authors explained this choice by the fact that it was this time that was considered the era of reforms and discoveries. Well, let's say. You can complete quests and run across the battlefields both in groups and alone.

Such famous races as elves, gnomes, halflings, goblins, giants, dendroids live in this world. The developers did not build teleports and portals, they left only a call for a siege and a teleport scroll to the nearest city. But you will have to move with the help of animals or occasionally - ships. Some islands can be reached by boat. Occasionally carries on griffins and celestial carts.

Characters and characteristics in Black Desert Online

You can choose any hero class, but you need to take into account not only his race, but also his abilities. For example, it is unlikely that you can make a magician out of an elf.

Most Popular:

• Warrior. The main weapons are sword, shield, many control abilities. Can take considerable damage while remaining unharmed. Good for those who prefer an open fighting style.
• Barbarian. A cool berserker, hung with skins and axes. High level of health and damage, suitable for lovers of farming.
• Archer. A charming elf, she hits without missing, but is helpless in close combat. It should be chosen by gamers with a good reaction.
• Mystic. The girl travels in the company of a lion, and works in a pair and works in a melee attack.
• Sorceress. Works great in melee, the main strength - in spells. But if you pump it, the beauty acquires such a deadly weapon as a scythe. The one with the blade.
• Valkyrie. Combines the qualities of a palladin and a healer, can fight and heal.
• Swordmaster. Looks like a samurai with a katana, sometimes uses a bow. Mobile in battle, dodges well, hits both near and far.
• Maeve. This mysterious word hides a samurai girl; it differs from a swordmaster in that when the blade is struck, sakura petals fall off. True, after awakening, he uses a snake spear, but the master does not.
• Magic healers. It is difficult to do without a wizard in a war, he not only heals, but also resurrects the dead. The sorceress controls the elements of the earth, like a male magician, she can summon golems. But both are weak in close combat and require constant protection from the soldiers.

There is one more original feature - pets or pets. They are looking for loot during the battle. You can also ride horses, camels, elephants and donkeys from city to city. It is really possible to buy a cat, a dog, a fox, a falcon, a hedgehog and even a penguin here. Not without a joke: the animals can be crossed. By the way, wild horses are allowed to be caught and tamed in order to sell or develop new breeds.

Interesting game features

The developers did a good job of changing the time of day and weather, and, moreover, without reference to the location. Cyclones calmly move around the map, so everything is just like in life: somewhere it is snowing, somewhere it is raining, and someone is unlucky for a storm or typhoon.

An interesting alignment was made for armor and weapons. If in many games the main goal of the player is to change the old sword for a cooler one, then here the replacement takes place every 20 levels. But pumping, that is, sharpening, is quite possible, and even necessary. But you need sharpening, and you still need to have time to sharpen, despite the fact that each unsuccessful attempt inflicts damage to armor. It is very expensive to repair. So without experience and dexterity in this matter - nowhere.

The game has a very strong combat system, the battles look spectacular, and they are dragging on and completely masterful. High level of elaboration of movements, animation, techniques and special effects. Plus - graphics in a cool picture.

Optimization is also at a good level, there are pets, crafting, pumping weapons and armor, there are interesting quests.

Guild and War in Black Desert Online

Separately, it is worth noting such a feature as a guild, it gives some support to the hero. To sign a contract, you need to personally meet with representatives, and it is not so easy to find the guildmates. You can develop a guild if you take quests to collect resources or kill specific monsters. The choice is based on the principle of randomness, but you can take another one if necessary, although the number of attempts is limited.

By the way, the developers took care to put guild marks on the map, where they noticed a member of the guild with which the war is being waged. In general, the world seems to be one, but the possibilities are nowhere else. And trying to live in this world is probably really worth it. At least for a little while.
