Crimson Desert is "like riding a bike", says Pearl Abyss PR boss, possibly in the sense that bikes also don't run on Intel Arc GPUs

Unicycles, however, famously person Nvidia's RTX 5070 cards sewn into their seats

Crimson Desert's controls aren't a symptom successful the bum. You conscionable request to get utilized to them. You besides request to get utilized to not being capable to tally the crippled if you've got an Intel Arc graphics card.
