>/v/'s favorite genious creator was fired>game was greatly improved as resultI wonder, why /v/ always idolizes some cringe "men with vision"?
>>740772821No one disliked it because it was "different" or niche, you disingenuous faggot.It was hated because it was unfinished, unoptimized and somehow worse in every way compared to the (also unfinished!) first game
>>740772821ItsuNO swagKINOshita is back nigga
>game was greatly improved as resultare you from the future
>Added the fast travel item Eternal Ferrystone.>Expanded the number of save slots from one to three. >Expanded the number of assignable weapon skills from four to six.>Added the pawn command Explore that can be used by holding the Go command button.>Pawns can now grapple enemies and draw their attention.>Pawns can now interfere with enemy attacks when the Arisen is downed.>Pawns can now protect the Arisen when they are unable to move.>Pawns can now suggest using large boulders when enemies are grouped together.>Pawns can now lure enemies to areas where the environment can be used.>Pawns can now perform follow-up attacks on enemies knocked back by the Arisen.>While grappling a large enemy, pawns can now pull the Arisen up and make them jump higher.>Pawns are now more likely to prioritize enemies targeting the Arisen when the player is using a ranged vocation.>When carrying an incapacitated pawn, pawns will now act based on the situation, such as putting down the pawn being carried if they are in danger.>Pawns will now act more quickly to attack or provide support.>Pawns will now avoid or guard against attacks more effectively.>Pawns are now temporarily invincible when being revived by the Arisen.>Pawns will now have a shorter hitstop when landing a charged attack as a Warrior.>Pawns will now more easily catch the Arisen after they have fallen from a great height during battle.
>>740773103We got patch todayWe will get even bigger patch in august, that will include perfomance fixes.Also, 6 fucking active skills, and changes to loot in chests to make exploration actually worth itSo yes, I can safely say that game was improved after booting Itsuno out of company
>Kojima>Itsuno>HaradaWhich one was the worst?
>>740772821I just feel, Itsuno... that you could have put forth more effort
>>740773229Can they please return ragdolls to how they were before they “fixed” it?>uh… what are you talking about, anon, ragdolls are fine, they are there, same as usualListen here bucko, im autistic about my ragdolls, always have, always will be, and i dont remember them slowing repositioning themselves into static family guy-style poses once they hit the ground. Do not try to gaslight me. What the fuck did they do to them?
I have disingenuous op fatigue
>>740772821I believe you to be a tendie who got asshurt at this comment and is pretending to be a DD fan now that it's on your tablet and le evil man is gone.DD2 is still dogshit, btw.
>I wonder, why /v/ always falls for some cringe "OP with faggotry"?
>>740775874play the game, fag
>>740773114did they make the enemies harder because this sounds like a lot of making the game even easier
>Itsuno famously hates nintendo>After he got fired, dragon's dgma dlc that fixed his mistakes is announced during direct, for no reason at all. It wasn't even port announcement but straight up dlc trailer>Itsuno hated DA for going against his artistic vision, and demanded to be in charge for any potential dlc for the second game>DLC name is literally Dark Arisen again

>>740773114>Pawns>Pawns>PawnsI like the pawn system, but they leaned into it too hard in 2. I don't want to be put on my ass when an enemy breathes on me then have to pray my pawns can respond so I can play the game again. Just let me have ranged and melee weapons simultaneously again so I can be my own goddamn support. Retards who want to rely on a pawn to shoot down flyers can still do that.
>only reason we got perfomance improvements is because of switch versionapologize
>>740775478They fixed the bug where monsters don't get battle damage, maybe they did fix that too
>be dark arisen player>derail discussions non-stopeven before dd2 you could always tell who was an assassin or mystic knight by their posting style.
>>740778459Never was fan of assassin despite his power, but hope mystic knight will make a comeback
Nipp Howard deserves to get stomped out repeatedly and have most of his bones broken. I'm extremely confident his new chink-funded scam will collapse as well.
>>740772821it would have done better if they didn't stick disgusting fucking troons in it.
>>740779615no, it wouldn't

>>740772821He wasn't fired though.
>>740781334He was clearly fired, the "retire" shit is just standard bullshit to avoid giving a "bad image" but people it nos fooled.
>>740772821My IP now, nigga.
>>740781334He absolutely was fired. That's why when he "left" he immediately went to work for tencent lmao no retired person immediately goes back to work
>>740781334The game shipped without a fucking NEW GAME option, bro.You telling me you WOULDN'T fire that motherfucker?
>>740781334>retires>3 months later is already leading the japanese branch of some chink publisher studiohe clearly was fired.
>>740781334You don't RETIRE and then immediately go onto producing for another company. He was fired.
>>740772821>Game is bad because of being unfinsihed>Finishing the game improves itWHO WOULD HAVE THUNK?
>>740777827>I don't want to be put on my assSkill issue.
/v/ really gaslit themselves that the villain of this story was the creator behind the series and not the giant corporate entity with demands for better fiscal year margins and mainstream appeal.
>>740777104Thank god he was fired. I'm glad he made DD in the first place but he was holding it back. He's the reason they skipped multiplayer in 2 and they reduced the number of enemies.
>>740772821why do the demographics in their fantasy world look like modern day london
>>740776870Did. 'Fraid it sucked. DDDA won bigly.
>>740781334>all those shitcord meltdown repsonseskek
>>740772821Because Itsuno made DD, one of my favorite games of all time. Itsuno also brought DMC back with DMC3, the best one. He also revived DMC with DMCV and as a reward, was allowed to make his sequel on a budget and as a framework for MH Wilds. He also quit and wasn't fired, but you discord trannies already knew that.
>>740782273>>Game is bad because of being unfinsihed
>>740782420It's funny too since Capcom has done this multiple times with other games unrelated to Itsuno as well.
>>740782420>muh evil corporation>when literally every single problem with dd2 was insane decisions from director
Remember when you people thought this game would actually improve upon the original in meaningful ways? LOL
>>740782251>>740782214>>740782146>>740781595>>740782049He was pretty obviously not fired if you look at the history of Capcom, the history of Itsuno and his relationship with Capcom and the recent trends with Capcom releases as well as reading their quarterly reports and fiscal year reports.It's extremely obviously disgruntled employee stuff that had been simmering for the past two decades because Itsuno was a whipped horse for Capcom, which made it an easy decision when he had gotten all that clout after DMC5 so he could almost instantly transition into another studio.A Japanese company would NEVER fire someone like Itsuno, especially one that just put out a game that sold millions of copies at launch in spite of an obvious corporate early release push to boost the fiscal year reports (which they blatantly admitted to in the investor report)Capcom pulled has pulled the exact same stunt multiple times, most recently they did it with Monster Hunter of all things, which also tanked the continued sales of Wilds in spite of incredible launch numbers.The "Itsuno was fired" is a discord narrative they've tried pushing ever since he left.

>>740773229>Fast travel, UI , pawn adjustmentsShit nobody cares about
>>740783951>>740784003
>>740783951Why the fuck are there Roman scutum shields all over the game if no one uses them? Did Itsuno do it just to fuck with me personally?
>>740782049>>740782214AFAIK he never claimed to be retiring, just leaving Capcom. Seems like a similar situation to Harada's.
>>740783951>>740784003>>740784065
>>740772821It’s weird how /v/ wants to talk about a game, but if anyone criticizes it, some schizo defends it with insults instead of arguments.
>>740783939>He wasn't fired, he just retired>joined another company right awaydeludedAlso, when you voluntary leave, you can't move to work at competition for almost year. Funny how you left that one out>A Japanese company would NEVER fire someone like Itsuno, especially Sega and Square would love to have a word with you>especially one that just put out a game that sold millions of copies at launch dd2 sold because marketing money, the second people actually played it, sales stopped>Capcom pulled has pulled the exact same stunt multiple times, most recently they did it with Monster Hunter of all thingsNot really. Wilds problem was same problem dos and tri had back in the day, peopel want fun game, not cinematic slop. World was saved by being new and on big console with big promotion money, but by wilds mainline curse just caught up with it
hey /v/aggots im about to play dd1 for the first time. what is the class/build for handsome, charming and cool dudes like me? also any tips or items to look for at the start of the game?
>>740784315stop posting kpoops and I might answer
>>740784425ok sorry
>>740784285You have not a single clue about what you're talking about unfortunately.
>>740784759>nooo he wasn't fired after delaying release for two years and selling like shitCope
>>740784285>when you voluntary leave, you can't move to work at competition for almost year.That would depend on wether or not he signed a non-compete, which you clearly don't even know about since you think it's just a blanket prohibition lmao.Other anon was right, you don't have a fucking clue what you're talking about.
>>740784285>you can't move to work at competition for almost yearActually you can. It can also be a lot less than a year. It's not even enforceable. A disgruntled employee have no reason to care about a non-compete period. Especially if they leave with no compensation.>Not really. Wilds problem was the same-That's completel irrelevant. It's about release timing.It was released early for the sake of boosting the fiscal year report for investors.That was the reason why DD2 came out unfinished as fuck and why Wilds came out unfinished as fuck.Capcom admitted that in reports, they were happy with initial sales and the games did what they were supposed to do.The problem was the consequence of releasing unfinished games, the sales after the launch period dropped because of the reputational damage that Capcom incurred.That is not the fault of the game directors, but the fault of the executives who decided "we must force out these games in their unfinished states to boost our fiscal year reports for the investors!"Retarded discord troon, every time.
>>740772821"It's better, to be liked by nobody, than to be liked by everybody"- Sun Tzu
>>740785467What was unfinished in dd2?What was unfinished in wilds?>That is not the fault of the game directorsYou can delude yourself into thinking that shit like "only 4 active skills", "no random loot", "no respawning chests" is because evil corporation and game was rushed, but no, it's because basic decisions made by director lead to shit product.You can blame "evil corporation" for many things, but not for basic gameplay being unsalvageable garbage.
>>740785812Also>he put time limit on the fucking postgameDunno how can anyone defend Itsuno after this shit
>>740785812>What was unfinished in dd2?>What was unfinished in wilds?The awful fucking performance, glitches and bugs riddling the games?DD2 blatantly being full of cut content that they didn't even attempt to hide (caved in dungeon entrances that NPC dialogue even refers to but they didn't even have time to remove that)The fact that the tower is literally just an elevator ride instead of a proper final dungeonthe fact that there is not even a true final boss in the Unmoored World.>active skills, loot, chestsStop moving the goalposts. This is completely irrelevant when talking about the game being unfinished.
>>740786008>The awful fucking performance, glitches and bugs riddling the games?Never stopped games from selling, especially on pc. Jap devs literally moved on pc in early 10s because pc peasants would buy any shit, no matter how poorly made, as long as it has something to hook them with in it.Fuck, Monster Hunter World suffered from all of it, and sold amazingly on pc
>>740772821Funny how 99% of dragon's dogma problems came from shitsuno yet /v/ treat him like some genius game devHe also ruined dmc and made with casualslop for braindead adhd zoomersI just don't understand why capcom didn't fired his ass ages ago
>>740785938There is no time limit on the postgame.There is a rest limit to do the beacons, but you have like 3 times as many rests as there are beacons.You can stay there forever.
>>740786131>Never stopped games from sellingWell clearly it did because the sales of Dragon's Dogma 2 and Monster Hunter Wilds stagnated after people talked about how terribly they ran.
>>740784315Wait for the remakeBoth vanilla dd are filled with dei wokeshit thanks to fagsunoCapcom going to fix everything soon Trust in kinoshita
>>740786172You really need to fuck up hard to get firedDragon's Dogma 2 was supposed to be released in the 2022 according to capcom leak that revelaed it's existence, so after wasting time and money, the only reason game sold was not it's merits but Capcom's marketing itself. That was too big failutre even for Capcom>>740786240>they are exception from rule I swear because it makes sense in my headOr, maybe they sold poorly because something else.Of course you hate logic and most obvious answers
>>740786172>Funny how 99% of dragon's dogma problems came from shitsuno>ignoring that Capcom fucked Itsuno over (not the first time either) by forcing him to split his time tard-wrangling Ninja Theory who were raping Devil May Cry over in the UK while having to simultaneously direct Dragon's Dogma back in Japan, so he had to travel back and forth while trying to balance doing both things at the same timeKek, it's so hilarious how people don't even know that Itsuno was being fucked by Capcom during the development of the first Dragon's Dogma as well.
>>740786396The logically most obvious answer is that sales stopped because people were crapping on the games because they released in blatantly unfinished states.Stop being a sperg about this.
>>740786502>Wah wah wah capcom didn't fired him he left on his own wah wahThen why he's working for a literal gacha company lmaoooEven itagaki didn't fell this low
>>740786576>Historically poor perfomance and bugs never influenced sales, or people liking game and continuing buying it>but this time and only this time it does
>>740786664>Historically poor perfomance and bugs never influenced salesnu/v/ discordtroon actually have to delude themselves into thinking poor performance and bugs have never influenced video game sales.
>>740786240>Dragon's Dogma 2 and Monster Hunter Wilds stagnatedyou mean after they out sold all the current competition and all their main audience bought it? damn what a shame, howd veilguard and shadows do troon?

>>740786974Also, bg3 and owlcat crpg, how could I forget about them
>>740773229wait what?is this real?is it actually getting a fucking expansion? and with the same name as the first?please tell me this isn't a joke
>>740787135Yes, and Capcom decided to mock the shit out of Itsuno with it on top of that >>740777104
>>740787263LETSFUCKINGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOjust watched the trailercan't fucking wait, really didn't think it would get one but hoped it was.
the truth is the game was completely fine and even exceptional in certain areas (exploration). But the enemy variety was terrible and some of the locations needed fleshing out (elf city was a nothingburger). but overall it was a good game, albeit desperately in need of expansion. which it is now getting.
>>740773114>>Expanded the number of save slots from one to three.How does this work when borrowing pawns
>>740774292Kamiya.
>>740787014Better than making a dogshit halfbaked game with ugly dei wokeshit
>>740772821>>740777104Oooohhhh so that’s why they announced the expansion with NintendoKek peak humiliation ritual
>>740772821I thought the criticisms were the garbage optimization and the scummy monetization tactics? He makes it seem that's part of its artistic integrity.
>>740777478What a brown thing to say.
>>740787434>exceptional in certain areas (exploration)dd1>you usually explore watergods ruins 3 timesdd2>exploring that shitty lich cave once is more than enough, no new rewards or monsters
I'm loving the amount of humiliation and hate gaysuno getting right
>>740787819>>exploring that shitty lich cave once is more than enough, no new rewards or monstersi didn't play it, but from what i heard, all the treasure chests have fixed loot and all the weapons and stuff could be bought at a merchant.so i really wonder, what's even the point in going any dungeon if you can just farm money and buy your shit?
>>740773021>unoptimizedYou're mad because your potato couldn't run it, like all the other cry babies
