The Crimson Desert Trick is an easy way to get into locked buildings

Player of Crimson Desert have discovered a way to easily enter locked buildings in the game. Originally intended to be a prequel to Pearl Abyss's previous title, Black Desert Onlineit gradually evolved into a standalone single-player experience in its own separate universe. From the moment it was released on March 19, Crimson Desert was an immediate commercial success, selling over two million copies within the first 24 hours and receiving generally positive reviews from critics and gamers alike. In response to the overwhelming feedback received from players around the world, the South Korean studio recognized the high demand for the game on all platforms and committed to providing prompt post-launch support to resolve reported performance and game balance issues.

Crimson Desert has a huge open world that surpasses the maps of both The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim and Red Dead Redemption 2 in size. Set in a medieval fantasy universe, the game is heavily focused on combat, with large-scale bosses, horse battles, and melee sequences. However, in addition to progression tied to the combat system, players can also advance by exploring large areas and participating in activities such as fishing, crafting, cooking, and hunting. As the developers themselves emphasized, their intention was to create a world that would keep players engaged for hours on end, encouraging them to interact both with the characters in it and the diverse environment that surrounds them while unlocking more and more opportunities as they complete each successive mission.

What to do first in Crimson Desert

The Crimson Desert can be extremely overwhelming when you first begin your journey. Here's where to go and what to do first to get off to the best possible start.

Crimson Desert Trick to enter locked buildings

Although it has been less than two days since the successful release of Crimson Desertplayers have already discovered unconventional ways to explore its open world. On the game's subreddit, a user named BelmontFR shared a trick to easily enter locked buildings. In the video they posted, a character can be seen climbing up the side of a building, then opening one of the windows and using it to get inside. In a humorous caption accompanying the video, the user points out that breaking into buildings through the windows is a method that works in the real world as well, although he doesn't encourage anyone to try it.

In the discussion that broke out under the post, other players commented not only on this method of entering locked buildings, but also on the general mechanics related to exploration and interaction with the environment. Some users pointed out that as long as locked doors don't have a distinctive look or aren't part of a quest, they can be easily opened with the generic keys found in Crimson Desertwhich can be obtained through battle or by purchasing them from vendors. Other players have also noticed that the character shown in the video is not wearing a mask that allows players to enter buildings and approach items with the “steal” prompt, requiring caution to avoid getting caught. In response, other users noted that they found it strange that they had to be careful when stealing, but when they entered strangers' homes, they encountered no reactions from NPCs, suggesting that the game could benefit from a system similar to the one implemented in Kingdom Come: Deliverance series.

The huge interest in this ambitious game from Pearl Abyss from the very first hours after its launch is not very surprising, considering that the title had been on the gaming community's radar since 2020, when its trailer was presented at The Game Awards. The eagerness of players to explore everything this fantasy universe has to offer as quickly as possible has already led to a significant number of reviews, some of which highlight certain technical problems, the most common being complaints about Crimson Deserts complicated controls. However, the developers stress that some aspects of the game take some time to get used to, and if any issues arise that need to be fixed or adjusted to meet players' needs, they will implement the necessary changes to ensure a smooth gaming experience. It remains to be seen how this title will be received in the long run and whether it will stand the test of time.
