I can't even login to the game, the start game button is unpressable, it will only work if I go back to the global labs tab again (TO CANCEL THE DOWNLOAD) then switch to asia/th. every time i log in it happens.

same, not steam user but still having this problem where I cannot start game button and had to change to global lab and go back to be able to click that start game button. sometimes even opening the launcher its auto install the global lab even though didn't authorize to install.


Edit: go to global lab launcher > press the setting > delete game.

If you got error code: try to let it download abit so it will appear the file at C:\Pearl Abyss\Black Desert_Global Lab at then go to setting in global lab version then delete the game. Now u can start game normally, this works for me.
