>>749254617So the same as the base game
Okay but how's the hard mode? The biggest problem with the base game is that it's way too easy, if they didn't fix that I don't care how much content they added.I'm sure most of those reviewers also gave high scores to Onimusha: Way of the Snore
>No new vocations>Not many new enemiesIt’s over
>>749254617Wasn't there an ign leak about it? something like adding new snow monsters?
>no loli pawns>still fat female nigger knightskek fuck offbbi when
>bot repliesthank god the dlc is out now i can leave this website
>>749254881If you want to be cool and fit in you have to say "uhhh where da lollies at?!?!", discord sis.
>>749254972Leave then
>>749254923Hey, there are way fewer games that let you make a black bbw compared to making little girls. Let us have this one.
>>749254881>10 new large monstersthis is embarassing. We had modders doing this in like 2 months with a bigger variety. Same goes for vocations.The worst thing though is that there are cattlegoys out there who listen to this shill drivell about the game being repaired now. Nonsense.
>>749255004nta but I will, have fun having poop throwing fights with SEAmonkeys, bots and jeets

>>74925461788 huh?
>>749254617I'm having a blast!
>>749255124>10 new large monstersHow many are reskins?
>50 hours of boring samey content with fetch my these flowers or kill this group of goblins kind of questsI can't wait.
>>749254617>average of 8/10It's so fucking over it never even began holy shit
>>749255426Same as the base game btw
>>749254881>>749255124>>749255363I don't understand why they couldn't port in monsters from Dragon's Dogma online, they just threw everything away about that game and pretend it never existed huh.
>>749255286Literally why do people do this and what do they get out of it, like what the FUCK is so wrong with wanting to talk about video games I don't get it. This is the most jewish shit imaginable just poisoning discussion for no reason at all
>>749255446Can AI do something with Online, like decomp?
>>749255568I hate you
>>749255506Every series over 10 years old attracts turbo autists that hate change and think>If this game fails the devs will be forced to make the game how i wantIt's the evolved form of Tortanic posting
>>749255506No reason! Huzzah for dark arisen 2!
>>749255584Why?
>>749254617DD2 has been such a disappointment. Series is basically dead now, no way Capcom tries a third time after two 'promising but half-baked' entries.
>>749255627Even obscure new release indie games aren't safe from it at all, abiotic factor threads were peppered with that kind of shit for weeks when it first released. I don't understand how people can be that bored and spiteful unless they really hate vidya and even then that sounds like a lame ass thing to do with one's time.
>>749254881It gets worse>Dark Arisen's RNG loot but on steroids>Made sense for DA1 since its a dungeon crawler, but DA2 is a new world map>Exploration is barely rewarded, you progress through the game by grinding for dropsKorean MMO shit
>>749255843>grinding for dropsi like doing that, for hours, possibly 100 of them
>>749255975You don't understand Dragon's Dogma
>>749255843KinoSHITabros….
>>749255843enough, I already bought the dlc there's no need to convince me more
>>749255843>DA1 since its a dungeon crawlerWait, DA 2 is not a dungeon crawler?
>>749256062I have a good understanding on various things haha
>Dark Arisen's RNG loot but on steroidsPrepare yourself for more micro transactions btw
>>749254617IT'S ALMOST TIME BLAST BROSTHE WIND IS PUSHING MEEEEEE
>>749255506I'm more impressed at how consistent and quick these people are. It's actually pretty impressive how fast they find a thread and immediately post the same thing over and over again. Same with Nioh 3 threads.
>>749256630That new achievement about the Final Proving Ground has me worried. I hope it's not too difficult.
>>749256721video games arent difficult you just keep doing it until it's done
>>749256630>22 hours leftfuggggggggggg
>>749256695I miss the comfy nioh 2 threads we used to get
>>749255828threads for more obscure releases are arguably even more fucked, because usually there are less knowledgeable people and these faggots' post like there's no tomorrow, they'll drown any kind of discussion
>>749254617>No improvement to enemy variety or vocation varietyJUST
Hydra status?
>>749257106>cut off its head>it just grows two morewoooooooow how the fuck was i supposed to know dude
>>749254881>Not many new enemiesIt was my biggest complaint about the core game, and I was really hoping Dark Arisen was also going to be a case of injecting the core game with the shit is desperately needed, while also adding an expansion location/enemies specific to that.
I don't know why the discord trannies even bother dogpiling this game, everyone sees them for what they are.
>>749256208I really, really disliked the lootbox system in dd1da. I was about to buy dd2da despite it being the same, but now after seeing this thread I'm having second thoughts.
Capgod won.
>>749254617Okay, this was already odd in the base game, but now the DLC has added more. Why the FUCK are so many of Thief's skills fire attacks? I'm playing Thief to be a backstabbing dagger guy, not a fucking fire wizard who casts spells with daggers. Two of the new skills for Thief are both fire explosions.
Did they unfuck Trickster or is it still do nothing while your pawns kill everything unless you can make an enemy fall off a cliff?
>>749257661I think it's based on that one fire skill Magick Archers had in DD1 that people liked
>>749257732I don’t think so
Removing lolis was an unforgivable slight and I will never buy another Capcom product again
>>749257769>Enkindled Blades>Pyre>Powder Charge (gets upgraded in DLC)>Two new fire attacks in DLCThief is literally just a fire caster.
As someone who played DDDA but not the sequel, is the sequel actually worth it? I never bothered because I got the feeling it was a slightly worse stealth remake so I might as well just play the first game again.
>>749257875The extras in the DLC are likely because there's a ton of ice in the snow region so the fire helps with that.
>>749257902no it's not worth it but it may be with that dark arisen dlc
>>749257902>I played the original and liked it, I didn’t play the new one though because uuhhhhhh it seemed like more of the same game I liked???Ok retard
>>749257902It’s basically unfinished
>>749257902If you compare base game to base game, dd2 is much better in my opinion.
>>749257957Yeah but Pyre already does infinity damage so did we really need three more fire attacks? It also doesn't feel like a thief or assassin at this point, they should rename it to "Pyrotechnic" or some shit
>>749257902>I never bothered because I got the feeling it was a slightly worse stealth remake so I might as well just play the first game again.Yes, that's basically how it is. For some reason they thought that instead of people wanting DD but bigger and better, that people would want the same thing again but with even worse enemy variety and a story that's even more nonsense nothing than the first game's.
>>749258002Why would I want to play a worse version of the same game if it's basically a remake? Might as well replay the better one.
>>749258061Warfarer can’t use Pyre, powder charge isn’t really for doing fire damage even if it does that. What would you replace it with more “slash and do damage” skills? It’s pointless thief already has those.
wait wtf is this lmao?
>>749258258>Sounds like he's about to fall over and die from boredomIs the DLC really that bad?
>>749255754they made loadsamoney so no way they don't give it another try
>>749258258Does anyone actually care about that, that's like getting mike myers to talk about guild wars 3
>>749258207>pointless thief already has those.Cutting Wind is shit, Skull Splitter isn't as good on small targets. Thief could have used one or two dagger skills for carving up fuckers. I would have like a move where you just do a flurry of stabs or something. Anything is better than Thief doing more inexplicable fucking fire blast moves.
>>749257902You get more DD to play and it is about the same level of quality (read: an unfinished game but with satisfying gameplay and exploration). If you want to experience some fresh DD feels, then go for it. Don't expect a radically different experience.
>>749258258pretty funny to get celebrities in to read patch notes
>>749258258how can i watch this without a youtube account
>>749258258>fallout reference in ddda2capcom confirmed for bros
>>749258258Donnie im gonna go kill the dragon Donnie. How do ya like them apples? That's right im not gonna stop the cycle of eternal return Donnie, I'm just gonna perpetuate it.
>>749257547being fair to how shit DA1 loot boxes were, there was functionally little way to progress except all of a mere three tiers of loot, where the best could only be purified from the literal end-game boss, and especially the alternate version of the same end-game boss.First, RNG just to get weapon/armor classes you even give a shit about. Second, to get the right odd modifiers.Considering DA2, there may at least be more variety to the grind. Possibly shorter/disparate mini-dungeons analogous to many of the odd caves of DD2, where some encounter at the end awards the higher tier spoils.I would definitely take that system over the alternativeMy concern is 'progression' in DA1 was a sheer cliff. the power difference was massive, and DD2 is already an embarrassingly easy game, with power scaling that itself got out of hand, approaching DA1 numbers.
TOP KEK!!!! SO THE GAME IS SHIT AGAIN??? NICE TRY SHILLS YOU ALMOST GOT ME!
Why are we losing our minds before even playing the game? We don't even know if it's bad yet for sure
>>749258393>small enemiesMash the fucking attack button or rope and stab them while they’re down? You don’t need a skill for fucking knackers lol
>>749258891Have you not seen the reviews?
>>749258891>before even playing the gameplaying the game?
>>749258891The fucking obnoxious thing about this game is that the BLOOOOSTERS glazed it for months because they didn't want to confront the fact that they spent $70 on a disappointment. It took months before anyone started admitting how they really felt.
>>749254617How many anon's are going to actually kill themselves when the game is really well regarded after this? I'm sure thousands died from BG3 and Cyberpunk doing so well. This game will probably cause less deaths but still, hundreds at least im sure.
I'm not boughting this until a couple of months pass and I can get a nice, levelheaded consensus from people browsing Dogma threads
Are all the new character customization features already patched in?I might make my characters but not play til the 9th.
>>749258058absolutely not, base game DD2 is just the first but with removed features, garbage OST and a shit finale, DD1 also never needed a patch to add in 2 skill slots
>>749260375They are in the separate character creator but not the actual game yet
>>749258393>I would have like a move where you just do a flurry of stabsScarlet Kisses is part of the Thief's core moveset. You don't need to equip a fucking skill.
will there be 2 playthroughs like BBI where the second one has tougher monsters and a new final boss phase
>>749260367>PLSSS DECIDE FOR MEBot
>>749261110>Buy this 60 dollar game + 30 shekel dlc and see if it's good nowno
its goty
>>749261153So watch someone stream it when it comes out and if it looks like something you'd like, stop watching them and buy it.
>>749261231>watching streamers>posting reddit frogyou need to go back
>>749255446They literally have in DD2DA. The goatmen are the grigoris (yes that's their name) from DDON. The firebreathing bird in the trailer is a Bifrest from DDON too.
>>749261231But I want the dedicated /v/ autists to play it for 5000 hours and tell all the good and bad things firstalso maybe mods
>>749254617I watched a few reviews and the blatant shilling was insane. They couldn't articulate anything mechanical about these new enemies, combat or systems just buzzwords and glazing. I will wait for shitcums 30 day marketing window to cease.
>>749255843You get higher level spoils in tougher areas and after killing stronger enemies. It's not really a grind until the literal endgame repeating arena
sphinx tits????
>>749254617And these people gave what scores to the awful empty base game? Yeah exactly.
>>749254617What about the small monsters? You know, the ones we’ll be harassed by 90% of the time?
>>749261228>comparing it to cyberslopIt's so over...
>>749261403>They couldn't articulate anything mechanical about these new enemies, combat or systems just buzzwords and glazing.That's literally every review for every game, except when the game doesn't come with a complimentary envelop filled with cash then they make a bad review out of spite regardless of quality.
>>749254617>no expanded romance systemnah
>>749261489Yes and thats why I dont listen to reviewers and especially new games during fake hype launch windows. Like I said - if you cannot articulate mechanics or go indeoth about the game then your opinion is not even relevant.
>>749257732It always did something. You can't directly damage enemies, but all your smoke attacks aggro enemies. The vocation is all about manipulating enemy behavior: tricking them into whiffing their attacks, tricking them into thinking they can't reach their target, tricking them into falling (either just tripping on flat ground or falling off a cliff), tricking them into fleeing a fight.Problem is this doesn't really matter in the base game, because the difficulty just isn't there. Hopefully it'll shine better with the higher difficulty.
>>749254617I''M BLASTING OFF
Has this been engoodened like CP2077 or is it still shit?
>>749261403Here's some real shit, the dungeons have fun gimmicks but can be annoying a times(forcing teh player to use a certain vocation comes to mind). The enemies in the dungeons are reskins and the "unique" bosses are also obviously based on base game enemies/bosses. The actual new bosses in the DLC area are good. They may use the same base skeletons as other bosses, but have enough new attacks/abilities to feel genuinely different. The quality of the DLC feels the saem as the base game. Good combat, visuals, and music, but a painful lack of variety and TERRIBLE balance. Either things die too quickly or too slowly. If you like base DD2, you'll like the DLC, but it's nothing groundbreaking
>>749258258Till this day I will never get why video games company keep doing this...
>>749261562no one cares to convince autistic skeptics who don't buy games, go back to your gacha
>>749261629Gotcha. Yea thats not enough for me especially since modders already did vocations, skills and reskinned enemy moveset overhauls. Too little too late.
>>749261273I've already been back to your mom's room, I shit on her chest last time I'm not going back again she's a fucking freak man.
>>749261629>a painful lack of varietythis was the biggest thing I was hoping they'd try to fixguess I'll skip it then
>>749261693APEX and beastiary, despite being literal reskins of base game enemies, has more varied feeling fights than the DLC imo. That said, I'm hoping the DLC will get those modders to expand their mods even more.
>>749261793Dang but that doesnt surprise me. Yeah I would rather wait for the framework updates and modders to get ahold of the DLC before diving in.
>>749254617They spent all this time to finally make a game that's almost as good as the first one.
>>749261629>>749261793source: trust me bro
>>749261629>Lack of variety>Reused skeletonsFUCK.They had SO LONG to address the very obvious problems with the base game. It would have been SO EASY to win my goodwill back, since I'm still such a fan of the original dark arisen. But fuck me and my expectations, I guess.
>>749261297So you admit you are drone
>no dungeons >just more open world slop with annoying weather mechanics that force you to camp all the timeaaaaand droppedwhy is this even called dark arisen
>>749262102because it's dragon's dogma 2's dark arisen. like dragon's dogma dark arisen, but for dragon's dogma 2.
>>749262102Agreed. Close the door on your way out.
>>749262059If it means being able to make a more informed decision later, then yes
>>749261294That's like a handful. They should've put the whole lot of them into the game including orcs, they don't make any sense. I guess once again modders will have to do this, and they probably will if that one modder doing the homestead shit gets around to it.
>>749262102They added dungeons to the base game areas. Also you can just ignore the blizzards. You always have enough time to find a warm area, and there are items that minimize the stamina drain.
>>749262180Aaaaaaannnnndds there it is. I'm glad you finally acknowledge you are incapable and or too stupid to form your own opinions. Thank you!
>>749262287>They added dungeons to the base game areas.fucking pointless when they're gonna be filled with red goblins and you're lvl 40
>>749262316lmao sure, you win
The female Straightforward inclination voice is so grating i'm thinking about either switch genders or change to Calm
>>749262348>fucking pointless when they're gonna be filled with red goblins and you're lvl 40Well, yeah nah, you're right lol
>>749262183I agree it would be nice to have everybody but I'm guessing making a DD2 enemy is a lot more work than making an enemy for DD or DDON. Just the fact that you can stand on enemies in 2 probably creates a whole headache that didn't exist in the other 2.But I forgot that base DD2's enemies pull a bit from DDON too. Sphinx is in, for example, though it's a lot better in 2 since in DDON it's just a gryphon reskin with a harpy song attack, slimes are in, and medusa is in and completely reworked from DDON's medusa which was just a lich reskin.Besides that what can they even add? Behemoths? Those are just wingless drakes. Ents and trolls? Those are just cyclops reskins. Might be neat to see what they did with them in 2 though. All the story bosses? Might be too far. Scourges? Yeah they'd be cool I think. Orcs? Eh...
>>74925461710 is so fucking low LMAOOOOOOOOMeanwhile crimson desert getting a whole fucking game at the price of dlc ahahahahahaha
>>749261983It's a pretty good example of japanese gamedev culture. IDK why but they tend to do things in the same way over and over and ignore feedback. At least they fixed some stuff with those patches, but it's mindboggling they didn't add more enemy variety when that was like the #1 problem with the base game.
>>749262183Ai will fix this dogshit game
>>749262418>Just the fact that you can stand on enemies in 2it's such a useless dogshit feature only thief can use, you're just gonna lose balance and fall to your death 90% of the time, but i guess it needs to be shilled because>duuuude you can stand on a flying griffin
>core dd1 players wants bbi>Ddon players wants bbi>Raped dd2 players wants bbi>DA2 is just more boring openworld shit Bravo crapcom
>>749262634I play fighter and stand on monsters all the time. It's an easy way to regain your stamina, and you cna more easily jump off the monster if it reaches for you.
>>749262479>why but they tend to do things in the same way over and over and ignore feedbackSaving face. The director might be too proud to admit fault and anybody below him doesn't want to breach social etiquette and criticize their superior. When the old head moves on and somebody is promoted to replace him, it would disrespectful to outright throw out the original lead's ideas as that would be the same as criticizing them.The way they do it without disrespecting the preceding director is to make additions changes to change course rather than outright undoing the original director's work, and changes made that affect the base game can be justified as being done to suit the new content without retroactive challenging the old design.>>749262634Fuck off, standing on enemies is cool as hell. Might as make the same retarded argument about climbing enemies to begin with. It's one of DD2's unique traits.
>>749262640Only BBI fags want gay and lame BBII want the Everfall with a million floors.
>>749254617That's great, but can I marry my pawn yet?
>>749262740you know a good way to get back stamina?using tusk toss and base attacks and not climbing enemies for no reason as a fighter>>749262743>unique =/= goodit's also unique in DD2 to just skip the point of the game by riding ox carts, it's just a waste of resources to implement
