The sequel to my video "It's a Marathon Not a Sprint". In this video I discuss the problems with BDO's Marathon and look at some of the underlying issues with the game's design philosophy.

Comment below on what you think about the rewards for increasing your gearscore in Black Desert past or even to softcap. Are they fair? Is the game too harsh on newer players? Should the power level of higher gearscores be toned down or turned up? Discuss below.
