While players are loving Crimson Desert, the community is in a fashion chokehold. Not unlike Fashion Souls of the souls-like fandom, fans have established a sort of Crimson Fashion (or Fashion Desert) group, where they’re finding the best drip around Pywel to cosplay as some of their favorite characters from other franchises.
If you check out the game’s subreddit, you’ll find tons of players dressing the three playable characters–Kliff, Damiane, and Oongka–in all sorts of outfits. Now, after millions of folks have begun their quest to revive the Greymanes and thousands of others have reached the endgame, the community is looking to outfit their characters in clothes that resemble other characters.
Someone turned Kliff into Captain America and called him, wait for it, Captain Hernand. (Get it? The main city you start in is Hernand, and it’s Captain America.) Another person dressed Damiane up as Link, as if it were called The Legend of Damiane: Crimson Desert. Two players made Dr. Doom cosplay, while two others brought Arthur Morgan over from Red Dead Redemption 2. Someone else dressed up as Persona 5’s Aketchi, and another person donned Geralt of Rivia’s typical garb.
