I will never finish Crimson Desert. It's not because I'm unwilling to put in the time—I just don't think I'll ever stop being distracted. Today, it's because of superhero cosplay.
Crimson Desert has kicked player creativity into overdrive. I'm constantly seeing my fellow adventurers tearing around Pywel doing wild stuff I never realised was possible. But it's just as fun to see how they've styled their trio of heroes, especially main lad Kliff.

The absence of good Superman games puts this cosplay at the top of my list—and the choice of screenshots is flawless. Now if only we could put capes on dogs, we'd have Krypto as well.
Spider-Man
With great power comes too many traders asking you to do odd jobs. Bonus points for the web-slinging antics in the clip.
Doctor Strange
Pywel's got its very own Sorcerer Supreme. With Kliff's little beard he'd make a respectable Tony Stark, too.
Captain America
This is some good cosplay, but I'm even more impressed with how Kliff's moveset actually matches Cap's, even without the shield-throwing (only Damiane can do that). He can chuck enemies pretty far, though.
Doctor Doom

Kliff is a good boy, but sometimes you need a genius Latverian supervillain to save the world.
One hero I expected to see recreated, but have been unable to find, is Green Lantern. We've got green dye and Kliff is never without his trusty lantern. I guess that's going to have to be my next quest.
In the meantime, if you've not got a superhero kink, Crimson Desert's fashionistas still have you covered, with plenty of outfits inspired by gaming and anime.
Link
Crimson Desert is my favourite Legend of Zelda. I'm as serious as a heart attack.
Mario
I would not be remotely surprised to discover a quest that requires Kliff to do some plumbing. And I'd bloody love it, especially dressed up like this.
Sub-Zero
I love this Sub-Zero cosplay, and AleXOlO2 has also recreated Altair, Geralt and more. My next port of call is Nexus Mods so I can get Kliff the lustrous Geralt mane. But I'm really impressed that the vast majority of the cosplays I've found can be recreated just by finding the outfits and dyes in-game.
Goku
Confession: I had to Google Goku's name despite playing countless hours of Dragon Ball FighterZ. There are just too many anime guys.
Dante
I'm tired of waiting for a new DMC, so this will have to do.
This is just what cropped up after an evening's hunt, and I suspect we'll see a lot more cracking cosplay as Pearl Abyss adds new outfits. But before I get too far down this rabbit hole, I've got a dour Scottish man to dress up.
