Last-Minute Story Claims Echo Through Crimson Desert’s Development

TL;DR Summary
A former Pearl Abyss developer and anonymous Blind posts allege Crimson Desert’s story was decided just before release, blaming an inverted-pyramid leadership style that rewarded 'yes men' and stifled dissent. The result, they say, is a disjointed narrative, a rushed development process, and leadership turmoil that may explain why the game ships with a strong technical footprint but a weak, underdeveloped story.
