Try Black Desert's Cutting Edge Avatar Creator for Free

Black Desert's much-talked about avatar creator is free to download now. As longtime NWNers know, Janine "Iris" Hawkins was writing about how amazing it is a couple years ago:

Both the characters and the world look so polished and realistic that its screenshots could easily be mistaken for renders from 3D software like DAZ or Poser (seriously). But yesterday, in advance of their second closed beta test phase, the developers of Black Desert released a new video to flaunt the game's unique character customization system.

You can try it for free without necessarily playing the actual MMO it's been created for, so give it a while. If you do, all you masters of avatar customization, please share your character selfies in Comments!

Still skeptical? Watch the demo video above!

you have to sign up and download an additional 6 GB, hardly free.

Anon: Even on a paid MMO you still need to download a lot of patches too. Plus the cost of telecoms required to get onto the net and to the servers is virtually unavoidable. Your gripe has been noted and laughed off like a terrible joke.

Also: this game's release is being hit with the regional restrictions endemic to many Korean MMOs. if you're not in the area this version is serving, access to BDO or even the basic avatar creator is not going to happen until a local provider negotiates rights to publish the game in your locale.

Also: they're really trying to push the needle on proving how flexible the avatar creator by holding a contest from 26 Jan to build the fugliest character possible. Whoever wins, we all lose xD
