The combat was so fucking amazingWhy the fuck did they not make more content for it?
it's repetitive as shit
because it was optimized like ass and people resented that.
>>730797106They threw this shit under the bus for Milds and karma dealt with the situationsimple as
lol
didn't meet Capcom's ridiculous sales standards and the poor reception of the performance probably made them think it's a dead endBut hey, there's always the possibility of a DA type DLC/expansion, but it's slim to none I'd say.
The combat in DD2 is ruined by the gay RPG shit, would literally be 10 times more fun without the limited skill selection and stats garbage, just let me play as a cool fucking knight fucking shit up
i liked dd2 because i'm biased but you have to admit the game was shit>subquests were awfully made and impossible without looking solutions online>combat was asy as shit no matter the encounter>many classes were designed like shit>no enemy variety>painful map traversal>forgettable charecters>primitive open world elements
>>730800037>>combat was asy as shit no matter the encounterI left the starting camp after doing a few side quests for the guards there, then proceeded with the main quest. In my way to what seemed like an abandoned village, it was nightfall, and I entered as expository dialog was shat on me. All of a sudden, my already narrow field of view was suddenly filled with some huge shadow/revenant types of enemies with a mini boss at the center, the framerate having a melty and the camera struggling because of the destroyed huts to the left and to the right of the road leading to said center.I was one shot, the party wiped, and the game reset me only this time it was day and the place was clear of enemies and the story started to play automatically.I've uninstalled and regret my purchase ever since.The game is beyond trash and predatory, anyone who excuses it deserves a lynching in my book.
>>730800359yes that's a bit like stumbling in a high level zone with a low level party. i wouldn't say that's common in DD2, but a series of shit interactions like that are definitely left in there because of the retarded developers
Itsuno likely already planned to leave during development so they decided the game would just be a one and done.
>>730800359I will never not be mad that they chose to ignore pretty much all the improvements dragon's dogma online made to the combat/classes, such as every single vocation being allowed to use 6 custom skills with the ability to swap to an alternate set custom skills if you commit to a moderate animation. Or Warrior having a built in mechanic that allowed them to hyper armour through attacks by yelling.
>>730797106Crazy I waited years for this game and didn't even play it. I don't even think about it unless there's a thread here. I think I will play DD:DA again today.
>>730797208But enough about Elden Ring
>>730797251this, only for wilds to suck too lol lmao
>>730797106Poor performance and goycattle freaking out over the MTX (which was a total nothingburger.)Outside of that, the game was over-hyped to a degree and really didn't deliver.
Dunno but I had a blast.
>>730797208>elden shit out of nowhereyou guys are sick and clowns
>less skills per class than da>not as flashy/fun combat>soloing isn't as comfy because most enemies have some sort of magnetic grab attack so you can only solo as a ranged class and by being very strategic about preemptive attacksI still enjoy playing DA doe
>>730797353>remove the rpg elements from the rpgYou are unironically a 67 iq somali nigger
Wonder what it was that made Itsuno quit. You can definately feel that past a point the game just "wraps up" and just loses all momentum. I was really enjoying it till I had to do the main quest and got to Battahl, and then the game just ends, it feels like it was just getting started and then its over.Go walk around the castle area of Vermund, its fucking huge, the entire castle is well laid out, has lots of rooms and big open internal environments, and its not used for anything, it really does feel like there was suppose to be combat sections in there, its gigantic and fully realized. Same with the lab in Battahl. This is hte kind of shit that seems like the game is blatantly unfinished, or they were wasting time on stuff that doesnt matter at all.
>>730797106I recently played through 2 with some of the new mods and I am now playing dark arisen again.One thing that stands out is that big monsters in 2 just get absolutely bullied from start to end. They are way more aggressive in DA. And I was playing 2 with mods that make them more aggressive and I cut my Exp gain down to 1/5th of normal. Like the balance in 2 is so shit its unbelievable.Small monsters are much more of a danger in 2 though.
>>730801092>they were wasting time on stuff that doesnt matter at all.Probably this.Jap devs these days seem to have this problem a lot.
>>730797251>karma dealt with it>highest selling MH game
Haven't touched it since I finished back when it came out. Wonder how aids'd up my pawn is.
The game was so good but also such a huge let down...
>>730801092I have taken to the belief that the whole game is a message from Itsuno that he doesnt want to make sequels any more and that capcom sucks.You have the watcher, Capcom, who is guiding you to repeat the same old story over again unto eternity. Even the dragon is tired of the cycle. The crazy old man (Who is Itsuno) keeps saying he wants to get away from it all, there must be something else out there for him across the ocean. You also have a bad copy of the arisen on the throne. Phaesus trying to make a copy of the dragon but its this ugly pimply thing that sucks.Its kind of brilliant. Shame the game couldnt have been actually good at the same time though.
>>730801526Oh and the ugly misshapen versions of Vergil and Dante just walking around.
>>730801093I forget what they're called but the sneaky green goblins were a fantastic addition, they add so much paranoia to exploring
>>730797106Reminder that Tsujimoto plagiarised Dragon's Dogma's pitch to make Monster Hunter 1
>>730801526>I have taken to the belief that the whole game is a message from Itsuno that he doesnt want to make sequels any more and that capcom sucks.DD2 was literally his passion project and a reward by Capcom for delivering on DmC5
>>730802196That Tsujimoto sabotaged (a second time) to make MH Wilds
>>730801526DMC5's story already did the whole "I don't want to be stuck in the past doing the same shit forever" gimmick while still feeling like a proper DMC sequel. Both DMC5 and DD2 were games that Itsuno really wanted to make, Itsuno was super excited at DD2's announcement, something happened mid development that soured him massively on Capcom. My guess is that they told him to cut content to release it faster and then sell shit as DLC
>>730801080If it's still like DD1's mechanics then yeah, they're shit and the game could use a de-RPGfication mod.Only midwits are impressed by simple math.
>>730797106Try the randomizer mod. It adds a lot of fun to the game. Though I may have set some values too high.
>>730802196Rewarded like this guy rewards you the throne after beating the Dragon? He was tired of Capcoms shit I'm sure of it.
I would kill for any content at this point. I just did a second play through and there is so much potential for something. Also, does NG+ add anything new?
>>730801175why do people repeat this bullshit, World has still outsold Wilds 3x, hell even Rise has sold more. Wilds still hadnt broke even in November and i doubt thats changed now
I'm playing dragon's dogma online on private servers. It's pretty good and some servers have minimized the grindy MMO shit as much as possible. Would recommend if you want more dd/was disappointed by dd2. It is literally just dd 1.5 featuring coop with lots of dungeons and enemy types
>>730797106They focused on Exoprimal and that shit flopped so hard.But other problems were story was trash, they nerfed a lot of skills or straight removed them the new class was shit and not fun to play, had way less interesting enemies to fight and also didn't help with it running like trash half the time same problem Wilds had to deal with.
>>730797208Sure it needs more monsters and hard mode.I really really enjoy the gameplay though. It has the bones to be one of their best games. Needs a fucking story that isn’t garbage though, and some much more compelling characters.
