The first Crimson Desert update makes bosses less punishing, and I can hear the sighs of relief

The first Crimson Desert update is tackling one of its most frustrating aspects as players start to wrangle with Pearl Abyss' mammoth open-world game. Crimson Desert is a vast and often unwieldy beast, and its boss battles are particularly so, acting as serious difficulty spikes that can catch you off guard. Making it worse, many of them are relentless, giving you little time to get your bearings. Fortunately, the developer is already responding quickly with some welcome changes, along with additional tutorials, new moves, and more fast-travel points.
