| INOVATIONS: 

Contribution system, which is one of the many ways your character grows as you play. Instead of awarding experience for your main level, the quests offer experience that increases your contribution points. Using these refundable points, you can rent gear from NPCs, buy property, or unlock nodes that you discover on the map, hiring NPC workers, using them to create trade routes or production chains.

While you are AFK, your character can take care of: building node networks, fishing, horse taming and breeding, farming, crafting, hunting.

Wagons to help moving goods.


| FINAL VERDICT: 


    Black Desert Online is not oriented on exploration and progression. Black Desert is a sandbox with a multitude of ways to spend your time: crafting, trading, fishing, housing system, working and investing in the world around you. While it feels better masked by the diversity of non-combat activities, you’re still going to spend many hours killing the same monsters and doing repetitive quests. The combat is fluid, complex and fun, only if you are using keyboard for skill/key combinations.  
     The game is confusing, frustrating, and captivating, at the same time. Becouse dense cities, busy areas, lots of icons and mesages, you can't see mobs very wel. Such a complex game, not being able to understand certain functions is frustrating. 

       You start off with rather a small inventory, but it is not an issue for long. The same with the weight limit. You can pay to increase it, but it is not really called for. Unless you plan to be transporting tonnes of materials, it’s more than sufficient. Even in that case you have wagons to help with moving goods. Assuming you park your wagon off near where you are killing stuff you can also use that to empty out your inventory now and then before heading back to town to clear it out. 

     Unusual MMORPG that will surprise and captivate with a variety of fresh features. Astounding amount of options and activities and the huge, completely open world. Phenomenal visuals have no competition in the genre in the moment. The biggest issue for me is how dense the complexity makes the game. The biggest thing I hated was everybody was the same and you couldn't equip different items. Every warrior pretty much looked the same (aside from a few very expensive costumes from Shop). 
     This game is not for everyone The game relies too heavily on RNG, with everything from Enchanting, leveling and even stat gain on level up being up to random numbers. The cash shop is overly expensive with full outfits costing nearly the price of the game it self. The lack of fast travel or flying mounts encouraging you to explore the vast and authentic feeling world. The amount of things to do, in this game is simply overwhelming, and the amount of content coming later down the line is simply staggering.Overall, its a game that may or may not be to your liking, the only way to really know is to try it out. You will either enjoy it, or hate it, fully depending what you prefer.
