It's become a recurring theme, but the legal drama between the leaders of Subnautica 2 developer Unknown Worlds and its parent company Krafton isn't over. Lawyers for the reinstated CEO Ted Gill and founders Charlie Cleveland, and Max McGuire say Krafton set Subnautica 2's early access release without consulting them.

According to Game File, the legal team for Gill, Cleveland, and McGuire filed a complaint with the court alleging that Krafton's announcement potentially damaged "the game and [sowed] additional confusion among the Subnautica community."

The letter to the court goes on to note that Unknown Worlds studio head Steve Papoutsis had no authority to make the Subnautica 2 early-release announcement because it came after Gill was reinstated to his CEO position following a recent ruling. It further contends that Krafton's announcement occurred without the "significant marketing activity, fanfare, and community coordination" that would have normally accompanied such news. The filing also suggests that Krafton purposefully leaked the memo and later confirmed it in defiance of the earlier court order.

Are you currently doing Renee's Request in Crimson Desert? This is an early-game side quest in Hernand, the first town that you visit in the campaign. It's also a task that grants you a pretty nifty reward.

Crimson Desert - Renee's Request guide

You can start the Crimson Desert Renee's Request objective by visiting the Butchery in Hernand. It's at the end of the alley just past the Inn. There, you'll meet the shop owner, Renee, who tells you about her plans to cook a seafood meal. Renee's conundrum is that she's been cooking meat her entire life, and she's never had a chance to cook fish before. She wants you to handle it instead, and she even hands you the recipe and the ingredients.

Be sure to pick Modest Fish Porridge since Renee doesn't want to get too fancy.

Your goal in this particular side quest is to cook 3x Modest Fish Porridge. Here's what you need to do:

Are you wondering if there's a way to store items in Crimson Desert? Maybe there's an item chest or a player stash? Well, there isn't, at least not at this very moment. However, there are ways to help you manage all your loot.

Crimson Desert's lack of a player storage system

There's currently no player stash or storage in Crimson Desert. That in itself is quite an odd decision, given that this is an open-world action RPG that has numerous items to collect and upgrade.

However, we've learned from the developers at Pearl Abyss that they're planning to introduce a storage system in the future. There's no definite timeframe for this update, but it won't be part of the Day 1 Patch. So, what can you do to manage all your items in the game?

Are you thinking of a way to advance the time in Crimson Desert? The game does have a dynamic day-night cycle, which factors into certain activities. As such, you might want to skip the long wait if you're in a rush.

Crimson Desert's day-night cycle duration

The time in Crimson Desert passes at the rate of one in-game minute to five seconds in real-time. The day-night cycle also affects various facets of the game:

• Quests - Certain quest segments can only be completed at a certain time of day. Thankfully, there's a "Wait" option that appears on your screen. You can simply press the pause button to fast-forward the time.
• Vendor refresh - Vendors restock their wares each day.
• Camp dispatch missions - Once you've established your camp at Howling Hill, you'll be able to send Greymane survivors on missions. These can take anywhere from a few hours to several days in-game.
• Visibility - Many areas in the wilderness are extremely dark and you have only your lantern to light your path. As such, it's usually better to explore during the day.

You can sleep on beds that you don't own.Passing the time by sleeping on a bed

You can advance the time in Crimson Desert by sleeping on a bed. This can be your bed in the Greymane camp, a resting area in the wilderness, or even one that's inside a house owned by another person. The only restriction is that the area must be liberated first--i.e. it's not controlled by hostile armies or bandits.
