This post went viral in Korea because it hilariously debunks a widely circulated, exaggerated claim about the highly anticipated game 'Crimson Desert.' Korean internet users love to expose fake hype, especially when it comes to gaming.
The 'Jungboong homies' refer to users from Jungse Game Gallery (์ค์ธ๊ฒ์ ๊ฐค๋ฌ๋ฆฌ), a popular Korean online forum known for its raw, unfiltered gaming discussions and often self-deprecating humor. 'Yangboong-i' (์๋ถ์ด) is a playful, sometimes slightly mocking, term used by Koreans to refer to Westerners, often implying they might be easily swayed by trends or less discerning.
Okay, so this post about 'Crimson Desert' having a legit, living ecosystem if you just drop fish into its empty ponds went absolutely WILD. Like, it blew up past the usual forums and even hit Silbe, the main trending page, boosting the game's hype like crazy. People were saying it's a god-tier game, no cap! So, naturally, one of our Jungboong homies, a real one from Jungse Game Gallery, decided to put it to the test.
They caught like 50 fish โ minnows, shrimp, bass, pike, you name it โ and dumped them all into this tiny pond. NGL, seeing all those fish swimming around in such a small space was actually kinda epic. We were all watching, like, 'Is this really gonna form an ecosystem? Fr fr?'
And then... ๐๐๐
Less than 30 seconds later, most of the fish just... vanished. Poof! Gone! It was like they all collectively decided to 'devolve into African lungfish' and go hibernate underground. Only a few shrimp and minnows were left. All the bass, pike, catfish, everything else? GONE.
Turns out, 'ecosystem formation' was just a pipe dream, bestie. They disappeared because the game engine just despawns them to reduce CPU overload. LMAOOO. Our Jungboong bro actually saw the original post like four days ago. Some Japanese dude just thought it was fun to see a bunch of fish moving around after he dropped them in a pond and posted a video on Twitter. But then the Yangboong-i (aka Westerners) got a hold of it, added some AI synthesis, and suddenly it was a 'god-tier game with a real ecosystem!' The way they spiced it up was insane.
The actual video even shows most of the fish disappearing by the end. And that whole 'crabs naturally appearing' thing? Nah, they just dumped crabs in too. It was all fake news, no cap.
BUT, and this is a big BUT, the game *does* have tree frogs that swim in water and then hop around on land. That's a real thing! So, Crimson Desert is still the GOAT in the observable universe for that, fr fr. Don't even try to argue.
