Crimson Desert tries to offer something for everyone. While it presents itself as an open-world game, the reality is that there's much more to it. Although the foundations are solid, Pearl Abyss doesn't stop there, adding multiple superfluous systems and mechanics that only cause the game to constantly stumble. While there are some quality elements, everything surrounding the good ideas is marred by a terrible interface, unresponsive controls, and a structure that lacks a clear direction. Like a buffet, Crimson Desert throws too much at us, but each bite is, in most cases, a disappointment.

Who is Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 for? In general, the truth is that I have little desire to recommend spending on this package, but I think that considering that we are looking at seven games in the series that are definitely in a playable state, I think you could consider giving it a try if not you have access to them in no other way. If, on the other hand, you already have the original versions or the HD Collection, my advice is that you completely stay away from this new option, as it basically provides nothing in terms of technical or playability, while on the side of extras, I wouldn't say either. that there is a lot. We are undoubtedly facing one of the great disappointments of this 2023 that has been giving us so many good moments.

While it's undeniable that the game makes a number of substantial improvements to the combat system, and will surely be a very enjoyable experience for all new fans, RGG Studio seems to have failed to understand its own work. Rather than generating excitement for the future of the series, this title raises a number of questions, and the idea of ​​Yakuza Kiwami 4 doesn't sound appealing, at least not right now. However, I hope the developers take this as a lesson, and that the next time we see Kiryu or Ichiban, it will be in an experience that truly honors the series, because if these games have made anything clear, it's that second chances do happen, but you have to know how to make the most of them.
