CURRENT BLAST STATUS: HAVING
>>736172253I'm replaying Dark Arisen right now in anticipation of the DD2 expansionBlast status = arrows
There is no expansionThere is no itsunoThere is no hope
>>736172253is that the new chimera variant? how though are they?with the mod even regular chimeras kick my ass, only tried the undead Chimera once and got raped under 2 minutes lol
>>736172606>There is no itsunogoodkinoshita won't let us down
>boot up game>pawn hasn’t been hired>can’t remember what the fuck i was doing>level 90I needed like 4 more badges and then to camp a shitload
1 bump limit dogma thread per week is enoughgame is kind of empty to talk about a lot desu
>>736172757Dunno, playing with mods and this my first time playing the game.So maybe.
>>736172253Based blasthaver
Suarian Blast Status:HAVING SOON™
I don't want to overwrite my save, but I wanna start fresh :(Copying the save it doesn't count, it's like my pawn will get SOMAd
>>736176610Did you try making a new steam account -> family share?That's what I did with DD1
>>736172883>some other Nip wont let us down.Don't EVER make that assumption. Especially with Capcom. Capcom is simultaneously responsible for some of the highest highs and lowest lows in gaming. You can never just assume they will put out a winner.
>>736176829>some otherhe made DA thougbeit
>>736176805that's a novel idea, thanks
which one of you did this?
>red cyclopes shoot fire laser from his eyeBeastiary mod is insanely funAnd the thing is it doesn't feel weird or out of place
>>736172606I'm afraid your blastiar gland is calcified and is thus unable to naturally pick up the high frequency blast signals traveling along the ley lines. Sad!
>>736179967My favorite part of the red cyclopse is him throwing his club>first encountering one>fatso throws it and misses me>time to get close and nibble at his shins>he fucking recalls it back into his hand>flings me away with one swing while I was charging my Arc of Might
>>736172253Havin a blast
>>736173007How does that work inside a cave?
>>736179967>>736180654Does this mod make cyclopses not a joke anymore? It was always so weird to me how they're displayed as this super powerful monster but one heavenward sunder knocks them on their ass as I proceed to gouge their eye out. Not even armored cyclopses fix them being such a joke.
>>736172253I started over and I'm having a blast. Hire my pawn and post your codes so I can hire yours.
>>736172253I've not played it since it came out.It's certainly deeply flawed but I had a blast.
>>736182842Same. I can't lie and say I never had fun, Warrior was such a kino class to play and a huge upgrade compared to dd1. The jump attack of impaling something and throwing the corpse at another enemy gave me many chubs throughout my playthrough.
>>736182742It adds two new variants, and the vanilla ones have the changes in pic relatedThey are still piss easy to deal with if you know what you're doing, but might catch you once or twice before you'll fully catch onto their faster attacksThe chase move is especially fun the first time around
>>736182762What's your Pawn ID?
>>736182762WHY build a city on the shore when the water is literally deadly? all it needs is a flood and everyone dies, the worldbuilding in this game FUCKING SUCKS no one thought anything through.
>>736184258the brine is the biggest fucking bullshit in these games, in the first game I thought it only shows up when the dragon is active to prevent people from fleeing but in DD2 it's just permanent and all of the implications of something like that are completely ignored in the lore.
>>736172253What's the modlist bros? From what I can see, practically all of Nickesponja's mods seem good to throw on and then just go with
>>736184836Some anon posted this:https://pastebin.com/WZrsHWaaIts what I used.
>>736185021Big thanks bro, will start dl'ing them now
>>736172253Is that one of the new Chimeras?
>>736184538Its such a blatant cop-out, yeah swimming in Witcher 3 sucks ass, we get it, we don't want to be swimming around a massive open world hunting down chests and seeker tokens strewn around all the beeches, also underwater levels always suck so we just sidestep it by saying water = death. But the world building explanation SUCKS. It'd literally have been preferable if you just sank like a stone and no one every brought it up, and you just teleported back to shore whenever you did it.
>>736173007>Tried the friendly fire mod>Quickly figure that it can't be used with magic users in the team.
>>736176484>Blasting a peaceful family of doctors
>>736173007Is this that famous BLAST HAVING I heard so much about
>>736186838Mayhaps!
>>736184258Sorry I spent the last 20 minutes killing this cunt and reviving Pawns>>736184836The modlist that anon posted is filled with goodies, definitely grab Gear Progression Overhaul since that was one of the biggest places where they dropped the ball, having to actually go open chests and fight big monsters for loot instead of just saving and buying it making 90% irrelevant is a must have for any adventure.Also PSA for everyone: use Simply Difficulty Tweaks and turn your exp gains to 0.250 so the game feels better and you won't reach Act 2 already overpowered. Do whatever the fuck you want with Discipline gains though.
I wish there was a way to export my pawn model...
this but unironically
>>736187621Don't set your DCP gains too far above your EXP lest you get your Pawn soft banned. It'll be unbanned at level 21, but if you set your EXP to .250 don't set your DCP above .500 or there abouts.
its pure unfiltered kino with mods. i just wish it ran better
>>736184258there can't be a flood because of brine
If we don't get a DLC announcement this year, then DD2 is dead. So until the game awards, I will have FAITH!
>>736186705>You see barely sentient violent reptiles that hunger for manflesh>I see doctors, lawyers, future leaders of vermund.
>>736186504could be neat if you could and some enemies could swim on the surface>if you're carrying too much or wearing heavy armor you instantly sink>grab an armored goblin leader and jump in the water with him, he drowns>get ambushed by fast-swimming saurians, who start tearing you up and there's nothing you can do>mage pawn freezes water making an ice bridge to you and you grab on but can't pull yourself up bc the saurians are holding onto you (like when the wolves get you)>warrior pawn runs across the bridge to pull you up, you both have to sprint back to land before the ice spell wears offit's insane how much potential this game has... it deserves so much better
>>736184174Summoned, will take her for a walk to the Checkpoint Town!
You need to be soulless to enjoy BBI, who has fun running in the same dark basement ????
>>736190014Me a boomer who grew up playing Diablo 1, next question.
The game fucking sucks
legit bot roaming random threads btw
>>736190324Pretty obvious when the post contains nothing referencing the game in the thread at all.
>>736184836>>696073442
>>736190545where do i get the boob jiggle mod?
God damn this Ice Ogre is not fucking playing around. That was a pleasant surprise.>>736191359NTA but I'm running this one and it seems to be working
>>736184258don't forget cassardis lol
>>736191359https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/447
>>736189778She's a little out of my price range but I'll mark her as a fave and pick her up in a couple levels. I'm playing with 0.100 exp.
>>736191636thanks!
Save us Kinoshita. Please save us Kinoshita. Kinoshita save us.
Gotta love snitching Pawns.>>736184258>>736184538In typical Japanese fashion they failed to properly expand and explain the Brine in DD1 other than trying to make it a mechanic to explain "we're too lazy to add swimming". The problem is that they explain the lore behind in DD2 while keeping it the same, the Brine is a way of control, having fishing villages means that people CAN go out to sea at least some distance before it kicks in and we could take DD1's vague explanation of it coming with the arrival of the Dragon AKA it's not up at all times; remember people came from other countries to Gran Soren and some of them are mention to be across the sea, we also SAIL to BBI so there's that. You're taking it too literal.
I'll freely admit, for all the game's faults, obviously missing features and content, rushed and butchered narrative, and overall underwhelming experience... I did really have a blast. Somehow the core gameplay and general mood of the game is still enough to sucker me in.
Rate this kot
>>736192250Would throw crinkly balls of foil for.
>>736175332Yeah this is overdoing it.We're all excited, but patience is key.
>>736173007This spell literally outdamage everything in the game meanwhile red vocations do chip damage. Imbalanced again just like DD1.
Will the game actually become good with an expansion?
>>736192624Not if they don't do something about getting into encounters literally every 5 steps.
>>736192624It needs a vocations overhaul, new ones, new equipment, new mobs, new areas, an increased difficulty for each NG+ like Dark Souls. That's all.
>>736192818Spawn points should be increased in distance from each others but with a randomizer that is locked for each regions so it still makes sense.

>Using Bestiary>Go into cave>Find Gigajuicemaxx Chimera>How hard can it b->Starts jumping around while casting light bombs and the snake is non stop churning poison>Have to use Wakestone, half my curatives and my whole party is 1/5 health after the ordeal
>>736192250You can give her more cat like ears with extende d sliders.
>>736191918in DD1 your pawn says that even the bravest fishermen don't dare to sail out too far, but then there's stuff like quina leaving gransys to go to the grand cathedral which is on the mainland, julien and mercedes and their mercenaries are also all from the mainland, so it seems like large ships don't get brined. they never really explained it i think
>>736192250Show teeth
>>736194274Yeah as I said, the game does a terrible job at keeping consistency between what the lore says and what the player sees, that's a problem in many -if not all- games but it's particularly egregious in DD1, and instead of trying to wiggle around it in DD2 they added even more lore on top and kept what the player sees the same, which is even more disjointed and disconnected. But hey if Soulsfags can make up all kinds of bullshit from 3 lines of text, I can visualize the Brine as a barrier around the land instead of a "don't get into water deeper than waist high" gameplay mechanic.
>>736194274Is there anything to suggest that gransys is an Island?
what mod do I need to get to stop one shotting enemies in the open world
>throw infected main pawn into water>doesnt dieWtf what do I do then
>>736172253>not on sale>Denuvo uncracked for 2+ years>debug build runs like shit and you can't mod itPoorfagbros...when do we get to play?
>>736195770Simple Difficulty Tweaks is the main onehttps://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/1018 with that you can just tune every monster to take and dish out as much damage as you want, that said its a lot of work to rebalance the entire game so...Go to the files tab of ERO and grab 'Simple Difficulty Tweaks - Mura's Preset' from https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/1079They've already done all the hard work for you.
Isn't this literally the Chloranthy Ring from Dark Souls?What the hell is it doing in Dragon's Dogma?
>>736195653Gransys is a Penninsula that has neighboring countries where Julien, Mercedes and Aelinore come from, but if we go by the usual Japanese trope it's probably just a big ass island like Lodoss. The issue is that they all call it "the mainland" which could be a translation error or it could mean that there's a bigger landmass and then there's Gransys (think southern Greece). DD2 is about the same, both Vermund and Battahl are coastal countries but you can see the coastline continues past them and the supposed DLC taking place in the north would expand it, but we'll probably never get a full world map.
>>736196659is that some kinda mod?
>>736196316Why is there a dragon AIDS epidemic going on? I've been seeing infected pawns everywhere.
>>736197395It is, not sure which mod did it, but when I looked up the ring by name the fextralife page has a different icon for it.https://dragonsdogma2.wiki.fextralife.com/Ring+of+Profusion
please, someone take my healer for a ride and camp in battahl. It's one of the 4 missing badges she needs...STAJKNGMTZIN
>>736194274>>736195653According to this video's description https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8hv3gG9_-o>Around 250 years ago the Liogran Peninsula was divided into Liore in the west and Gransys in the east. The dukes of each region were forced to answer to officials sent from the mainland.There's a big mountain range that divides the Penninsual into two Kingdoms and the "Mainland" is futher up north, so while not an island it's still a very much maritime nation. >>736197548Bestiary apparently juices up Dragonplague.
>>736196659Are you using the AI rings mod? In vanilla all rings have the same image in vanilla.
>>736172253
most fun class to start?
>>736197962Mage
>>736197791Nah, its probably from one of the bigger mods that changes multiple things as I didn't seek out a "change ring icons mod" or anything so specific, not sure which one is responsible. Maybe the unofficial patch, I didn't actually look at what it changes.
>>736198003LOL NO, this anon is trolling, if you are a mage you are missing one of the best points of DD combat that is climbing on enemies, mage is a very boring class to start with it, you are seeing your pawns doing all the funny stuff meanwhile you are just charging magic attacks.
>>736197962There is only one vocation and that is Fighter.
>>736198270Sitting back and casting spells while watching your pawns work can be plenty entertaining. I found Mage -> Sorc to be a lot of fun in 1, though a little less so in 2.
DLC WHEN PLZ KINOSHITA
they probably cut a lot of the lore about the brine and water god in generalyou can still see a tapestry with what's presumably the water god in the chief's house, and the water god's altar was supposed to have its entrance in cassardis, with quina being its priestess. but the entire water god thing just got relegated to be background lore, and even the ancient slates you get for the priests to tranlsate end up going nowhere
>>736197962of the starting classes fighter is probably the most engaging and makes for good pawns but warrior is the best class because hitstun and knockdown = dopamine
>>736198453why does he look like a homosexual firefighter?
>>736182130magic
soon
>>736198847All fighters are homoerotic while all mages are fags
>>736198690Things like this make me less critical of DD2. When I first played DD1 I did wonder about the slates, but I've been through it so many times now that I just see them as progression mechanics.
>>736189778
>>736200972Why must Cyclopes be relentlessly bullied?
>>736182762>>736182762Started over too, cheated a little transferring late game gears from previous arisen.steamYYCMCX6WSFPS
>>736184258If there was a flood that went that high up it would be a world ending apocalyptic event regardless of the water being evil or not
>>736201319Eye is dagger-sized, perfect for sheathing + I always need new backscratchers and their tusks are just right for it
>>736201319Because there are entirely too many of them, I see why people use mods to add some variety to the monster spawns.
I never really stopped playing. I come back to it every few weeks or a month since releasegod I hope the dlc rumors are true. I can't mod console
>>736176071
>>736172606DD:DA and DDO were Kinoshita (shits kino)
how is the game now versus release? i think i heard they fixed some of the cpu fps issues but that it caused new issues?
