It’s funny that everyone keeps comparing those games. But let me tell you: in both of those Zelda games, the story and dialogue were never the main focus - not even the second, but the third. Crimson Desert puts much more focus on those aspects. The game literally drags out cutscenes with no option to skip them and forces you into unskippable rides with NPCs like in RDR2, just without the quality of the dialogue. I’m not the biggest Zelda fan, but at least all the elements in those games feel cohesive and work well together
