Hello everyone. I wanted to spend some weekend times to play this game. Sincerely sorry if someone ever posted a full tutorial on installing the game from the start . Ps ~~ Please give me some advice^^ thanks.
should I just follow the following steps to play the game?
First step (1)
https://www.reddit.com/r/blackdesertonline/...k_desert_japan/
Second Step
https://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/downloads.html ( Don't know which one to choose )

Initially I made my character with "shiny" slider at 0.
But it looks so...dry, so painful, like skin exposed to dry winter.
When there's only little lightsource, such as in house, the texture looks dry and plain like a piece of paper, not skin.

So, I deleted it and moved it to 50, I too felt that it's abit overkilled, but I couldn't bother with remaking character another time due to the cooldown and I am already out of character slot, so...I guess she'll have to stay like that until I purchase the Premium when she reached higher levels.


BTW, I see from your posts that you are currently using MUDFish, care to share a bit of user-experience with me by the questions in my previous post? I am seriously considering it.

You can PM me if you don't want to make it public, thanks!

The first URL is good, but it's a bit outdated in the menu screenshot, I remember there's one additional step in the middle, and the buttons location were changed (the same captions though). I went through the process 2 weeks ago, can't remember all the details now.
It helps tremendously if you understand a bit of japanese.


As for the 2nd one:
Just go to the OpenVPN website, download and install.
Next, google "VPNGate", get any japanese server (usually the 1st one is good enough), download the OpenVPN config file, put into C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\Config.
Once you did that, launch OpenVPN, right-click on the OpenVPN icon in your windows tray, you will see the config listed there. Click "Connect", and you can now open the black desert official website, login with facebook, etc.

Wow u use the one time item change appearance?
I kept that until really find nice costume

Just like I said ingame, its pay per use, so for idling is better to use free VPN, I only turn it on for combat.
No packet loss whatsoever, except for MHO cuz dem great firewall.
Its easy to setup, can always on as it uses per-application routing. It will also recheck data usage per day and will refund the quota back if miscalculated.
Support is good, the mods has fast response and will tell u in advance if server got maintenance.
$3 for 27GB is cheap for me, only used up 3GB per week for gaming.

Nope, I didn't buy that. I deleted my first character and remade a new one. There's cooldown before a character is deleted, so while waiting, I had to use other slots. But I have 1 ranger and 1 valkyrie, after deleting that ranger, I only have 1 slot left, and can't create anymore (default is 3 slots), so I didn't bother recreate, that's why my current character is still at "shininess" 50.

I will eventually buy Premium, which grants 30 days of free-cosmetic changes for ALL characters (plus increase exp, etc etc) once I reach lv50 and know what I am doing, to spend that 30 days well.

I just visited the website, but don't see that $3 for 27GB offer, may I know which link you follow to get that?
They do accept credit card payment regardless of issuing country, right?
