Black Desert Online on Steam
I have seen some of troubles in-game languages in review. There is no english in some regions, if you are speaking/reading in english that might be a bit annoying. But there are no problems after once you figured it out, on how to fix (change) it. Plus, If you play the game through Steam you also can play on BDO's non-steam client without downloading the packages again and you can't use your account that you've made from the non-steam client on Steam client. Steam users can't link their SNS account on website? Not a big deal. It just works fine for me until now.

Downloadable Content [DLC]
Right, it's different. Steam users need to redeem the DLC in-game once the user bought it and here is the way on how to redeem it: Log in to the game -> ESC (Menu) -> Community (F9) -> Redeem (8).

The Game
This MMORPG is really stunning.

I'm not throwing that "stunning" word for nothing.
Firstly to say you will forget what reality is because of this game, the game really hooked me up by its beautiful landscape and portrait graphics. The combat style is very smooth and the ambient mixing through the audio and graphics which somehow makes you lost in it and spent hours, even just only to staring at walls. Right, that was me.

Besiding that beautiful graphic and audio,
The gameplay is repetitive. What you expect? It is MMORPG. Even it's MMORPG, it's more than that. It's actually an open world sandbox game that allowed you to do much things inside the game. It has large scale world to explore and if you bored of grinding in killing many of variatives monsters to earn silvers (the in-game currency), you can do life-skilling like fishing, farming, trading, bartering, sailing, and many more. You also can do housing and decorate it as well for maybe resting with your in-game best friend and have a chit-chat or celebrating your big day with your nearest.

PVP System
Even it based on gear, you still need skills to defeat your opponents in battlefield and it has large scale pvp such as Territory war and Node War to claim the territories or nodes within your guild. There is also a mini-game just only to fun with PVP called RBF (Red Battle Field) and BA (Battle Arena) with training character which means your gears and skills will be enough to enjoy the PVP content, both mini-game that I mentioned are like Colosseum or doing GvG (Guild vs Guild) to have fun or revenge.

For new players no need to worries on someone annoying your while grinding and learning the game, because the system only allowed the players kill another above newbie's level (starts from Lv. 50).

PVE System
There is no dungeons here because the game is an open world game. You even can enjoying it by only following the quests and the lore inside the game which lead you to meet many many and many unique monsters with their own combat style and backgrounds.

Hey,
Don't miss the game lore.
I give it 10/10.

Black Desert Online Experiences
I started to play after got invited by my friend in 2016, JP server.

As I remember,
In that time there was a Tamer released for the first time. We both played for months and not really that active due to our study schedule was very tight. The character creation is so detail and made me spent hours just only to create my very first avatar, yet it still looks ugly. There was no awakening and I only can reach +15 max level of my gears. I enjoyed much the game!

I back to the game with my current region client and that's it! The game still hand me their best! What a surprise! What I love from this game is because the game keep improvising itself.

Right, No matter how long you play this game and whenever your impatience defeat you in enhancing, you will lose your whole progress in seconds because this game is based on RNG (Random Number Generator), in simply say, it based on your luck.

Keep this in mind:
労働には時間がかかります。
This game really need time.

Is it Pay to Win? No.
If I'm comparing to most of MMORPG out there, then it's a no. I know there are some money-items that can be sold in-game, well it's MMORPG and you can't deny how most of its systems are like that.
