Crimson Desert Review - Highest Fantasy
Crimson Desert excels as an open-world action-adventure game when exploration and combat intersect. In the lead-up to release, there's been a lot of discussion about what exactly the game is and whether it's too good to be true, with trailers showing off everything from dragon-flying and mech-piloting to Shadow of the Colossus-style boss fights. Developer Pearl Abyss certainly set its sights high with its first single-player game, and there's no denying that Crimson Desert is an incredibly ambitious game stitched together with as many ideas as humanly possible.
A few hours into my adventure in Crimson Desert, I decided to explore to the east of the Duchess of Hernand--the game's starting location. Just beyond a sloping valley, I could make out what looked like a giant diving board nestled atop a mountain ridge. With this landmark in my sights, I made it my mission to scale the chalky cliff face and find out what exactly this enticing structure was.
As I figured out how best to tackle the climb, finding spots where I could stand and replenish my stamina before continuing, I eventually reached the top and discovered that what looked like a diving board was actually a mysterious wooden pulley. It wasn't clear what it was used for, but I didn't really care. The view from the top instantly grabbed my attention, presenting a breathtaking panorama of Hernand and beyond. Pastoral countryside stretched as far as the eye could see, dotted with hamlets, beautiful meadows, and dense forests. In the distance, snow-capped mountaintops reached for the clouds, while a number of hilltop castles were only a horse ride away.

During Disney's annual shareholder meeting, D'Amaro said he recently reviewed some of the progress on the Disney x Fortnite project. "I was blown away by the possibilities," he said (via DrewDisneyDude).
That doesn't tell us much, of course, and it's not surprising to hear D'Amaro speak so enthusiastically about the Fortnite project. After all, he is the person who spearheaded Disney's investment into Epic Games in the first place. He's also a regular visitor to Epic's headquarters in North Carolina.

John Carpenter--best known for his legendary horror films like The Thing and Halloween--is evidently big into gaming, and says one of the games he's most looking forward to at the moment hasn't even been officially revealed yet.
"I have loved the Fallout universe for years so anything they do next, I’m ready for it," Carpenter said in a recent interview (via IGN).
Carpenter listed the next Fallout game--which currently has no title and no release date--as one of three games he's most excited to play. Notably, the other two games that made the list--Saber Interactive's upcoming shooter John Carpenter's Toxic Commando and Illfonic's upcoming Halloween--are both adaptations of Carpenter's work, whereas Fallout 5 obviously is not.
