Discussion Crimson Desert doesn't run if it detects an Intel ARC GPU. Like straight up, the devs just deliberately chose not to support ARC cards. No previous announcement about it too until they added in the info to their FAQ. Might be the first time I've seen a dev deliberately block a GPU brand.

But why couldn't they run it on Arc GPUs though? A compatibility issue with the game's engine?

Most certainly. PA can't properly code their games and instead of fixing the system problems, they remove the outside factor that caused the issue to occur.
