Black Desert Online can be pre-ordered for $30 with some bonus content, but will remain “buy-to-play” (no subscription fees) after its official release sometime in 1Q16. If the number of happy emoji on the BDO forums is any indication, Daum Games has won lasting support from its community before their game has even come out. Directions are here, but the general idea is to create and upload the ultimate “beast,” with prizes for 125 winners and participation rewards for everyone. I tried for several minutes to find a name that wasnt pure gibberish for the family name, and since thats what the game goes on regardless on character name, I assumed that individual character names. No matter what the name is it seems, its already taken. And that’s good! The dev team has actively embraced their community’s hellspawn with the “Beauty and the Beast” contest, which will run from January 26 to February 5. So I finally got to log in this morning, but hit an impassable wall at character creation.


If the promotional videos are any indication, this enables an almost-infinite variety of generic elf-like faces-in practice, though, it can (and will) be used to create hideous asymmetrical monstrosities. It's more like 3D modeling software, in that regard. Simply put, Black Desert is the gold standard of character creators in MMOs. Players can indulge in rich customization with ease.

Its character creation system is incredibly in-depth and allows players to customize everything from hair strands to eyeliner in incredible detail. Black Desert Online's famous character creator tool is coming to mobile devices on November 23rd. In a genre where many games simply offer a few preset faces and call it a day, BDO allows players to sculpt a bewildering number of points, not limited to facial features. Black Desert Online is a gorgeous fantasy action MMORPG by the South Korean developer Pearl Abyss. Although BDO itself is intriguing, it’s been instantly embraced by the internet for one aspect: its bizarrely in-depth character creator.
