This game should really have an in-game bestiary that gives you artwork, lore, elemental weakness, etc. for all of the different enemies based off of kills like how your pawn gets the badges. Would be comfy going to hunt something and resting at camp perusing your bestiary tome for tips before going to fight it.

There's two versions of the mod now:
>HardPlus
Lets you disable the exp and gold bonuses, plus set the value for the damage multiplier that Hard Mode applies in Gransys. It also comes with a fix for the human boss enemies HP (Dark Arisen capped them at 9.999, so the Seneschal had that hp instead of 23.000) and the coolest feature, a cooldown for using curative items during combat, preventing menu heal spam
>HardPlus with Custom Difficulty (beta)
same as the previous one but with the multipliers, customizable from an .ini file and separated between normal enemies and bosses. I've marked this one as beta because I haven't been able to test it on all the enemies. But I've tested them on some (gobs, wolves, bandits, saurians, harpies, cyclops, drake), and with those, it worked. I'll remove the beta thing and leave that one as the final mod version once I've done a full playthrough with it.

HOLY FUCK

judging by this alone, this tells me kinoshita is going by ORIGINAL dd1 logic. Meaning, all the late-game stuff from the original map concept for DD1 (what we didn't get from dd1 or ddda or dd2) is being considered for the DLC area, which should roughly include moon content. For context, in the original pitch for DD1 the content scaling goes to level 100. In DD1 we only get to reach portions of the level 60 content. in DD2 we only got to reach portions of the level 70 content in unmoored world. The moon and other "truly cut content" ranged from level 70 to Level 100. The moon was level 80, and the endless tower was level 90 to 100.

TL;DR Itsuno's vision is fully on the table, base DD2 reaches level 60, unmoored world is the level 70 portion. dlc is the level 80 to possibly 100 portion.
>>
>>583303616
I haven't been following the leaks, I just want to know one thing: are we getting an endless tower? Even just offline
>>
>>583303616
But I completed unmoored world before I reached level 60. How can you tell what level an area is intended for?

I'm genuinely not sure. My understanding of 12 dungeons being added is that they have procedural elements, so you can replay each one if you want to with slightly different enemies. Whether that's it or there's more to it hasn't been leaked. There seems to be meta-progression somewhere in the DLC but the details are not fully known yet.

>>583303874
The map image I posted is from year 2001 or so. The level numbers are more or less a rough estimate based on how tough enemies are and when you typically access them in a normal paced playthrough. In this pre-DD1 image the max level is 100. In DD1 the max level is 200. and in DD2 the max level is 999. My hunch is that the level isn't so much the main idea, the point is that it's meant to indicate the order of events. I'm assuming those "remote islands" are referring to the revealed portions of land that become available during the unmoored world event, assuming seafloor shrine and tidal cave are the same idea.

Some interviews suggest this may be the case. Specifically, they bring up an endgame content mechanism SEPARATE from hard mode for use with the best gear.
>Kinoshita: We understand that there is a high demand for replayability, so we have included a mechanism that corresponds to end-game content . As I mentioned in a previous interview, this is different from the "hard mode" where you get double experience points in exchange for a higher difficulty level .
https://www.4gamer.net/games/015/G101559/20260918090/

>In hack-and-slash games, you often end up with a powerful weapon but no one to hunt. In this game, are there any monsters that are tough enough to challenge even with a weapon as powerful as the ultimate weapon?
>Kinoshita : We understand that there is a very high demand for the play-based approach. In fact, we have incorporated mechanisms and preparations to meet that need.
>So that's a different element from hard mode, right...?
>Kinoshita : Yes, it's different. There are only three weeks until the release, so I can't give you any more details... sorry! (laughs)

There's no indication of that yet. People are just seeing this "dark moon" weather effect and running with it. All it suggests is that there's a "dark moon" world state related to the "final area". That could mean it's applied in the final area of the DLC, like the mountain peak or something, or that it's a weather effect applied after beating the DLC like unmoored world or post-dragon DD1.

>>583304958

This may well just be referring to how BBI worked. You beat it, now tougher spawns show up earlier and there's a tougher end boss.

I've read books and watched movies entirely on the basis that I skipped to the end and then wondered how the hell the plot got there.
On le 4channel you can just read everything with the filter of "that's probably bullshit," and then remain pleasantly surprised when it's not.
I'm not even sure why they're indulging the crowd that demands they spoiler this shit. You shouldn't be on a website with no real moderation if you don't want to see spoilers and whatever other fucked up shit some schizoid might put in the image field.
>>
>>583307952
Some people don't care about a certain type of spoiler, and some would even rather know ahead of time if there's something cool and persistent (e.g. a skill) they should be on the lookout for instead of stumbling upon it after 100 hours.

>and some would even rather know ahead of time if there's something cool and persistent (e.g. a skill) they should be on the lookout for instead of stumbling upon it after 100 hours.
I bet that's the kind of people who min-max'd their levels in the first game, they either played 190 levels of Assassin for Strength or 190 levels of Sorcerer for Magick so they wouldn't "brick" their character.
Those are Aughtists.
>>
>>583308941
I have no fucking idea how you jumped from "something cool" to stat minmaxing. There's an enormous difference between knowing something you might enjoy using is out there and looking everything up before and while playing.

>>
>>583309504
I might have exaggerated but it's similar, wanting to know if something like a powerful skill is available and how to get it early is basically min-maxing or at the very least, optimizing your "build" although now that I think about it wel, the new skills will likely be just extra skills you'd unlock at the vocation screen assuming you've reached the required rank and have DCP for them, I don't think they would make us unlock these new skills like with Maister skills.

Severe reading comprehension issue.
And "skill" in this case was just an example. Nonetheless we still don't know if they're just available or unlockable, so the latter is possible.

I think all those other skills are generally more useful
in DD2 I think the affinities matter much less when you are at higher levels. Lightning and Frost statuses are really good but you kinda need to build for status application/synergy for it
Hopefully dark arisen adds more uses desu, but I imagine since the numbers on weapons will be pumped up even further like the first game, it probably will matter even less
Also let's be real if you're using warrior you swap to cyclopean thunder anyway whenever you fight an armored cyclops or rock saurian

The KD animation can be brutal, but you learn very quickly to respect the big attacks that cause it. For DD veterans, I find the early game very forgiving compared to the first. The early ogre in DDDA is a struggle, and best handled by letting it jump to its death. I ran into an early ogre at night in DD2 after leaving Melve, and while it took a minute, the victory was inevitable because I never got greedy. Minotaurs felt more like DD1 ogres for a minute before you get Palladium and stop getting one or two-shotted by them.
The cheapest things DD2 pulls are Drakes and Dullahans sapping stamina from melee combatants putting them in the exhausted animation for their follow up attack, and the spawn rate in Battahl snowballing manageable fights on lower level parties. I won't count the shenanigans fighting the mob with the false Sovran because I strongly suspect the aggro in that fight is broken, but it's an honorable mention.

Replayed DD2 to get ready for the DLC and I still can't quite wrap my head around the series' cosmology. Just what the hell is the relation between the Great Will, the Pathfinder, the Seneschal and the Dragon? From what I understood, the Great Will gave Oblivion a corporal form as the Dragon so humanities' greatest gigachads (the Arisen) can beat the shit out of it and prevent the world's destruction. The Pathfinder (who for some reason seems to have power over the brine) seems to have been created to make sure this cycle goes off without a hitch, yet for some reason he decides to become the world's biggest threat in the Unmoored World, up to taking oblivion's role as the Dragon. But then what does the Seneschal do? DD1 made it seem like the Seneschal was responsible for maintaining the world, yet according to the Pathfinder it's actually the Great Will who created the world and everything in it (including the cycles), so the Seneschal seems kinda redundant (and the world's been doing okay even with Rothais stuck in a ruin). Also, why does the world seem totally fine after the Pathfinder's death? Shouldn't the end of the cycles be really bad for the world?

Nice. Good job on the framing and composition.
>>
>>583325919
As far as I understand it:
Greater Will harnesses Oblivion to play the role of Dragon. Beastren Seneschal goes AWOL, meaning there can be no new seneschal without killing the old. Greater Will tasks Pathfinder to fix it. Pathfinder creates another cycle within the cycle to kill Seneschal. (You) kill the Pathfinder and nothing is resolved at all.

TLDR, DD2 lore is shit.

No need for hypotheticals, if you avoid the pub he frequents you never get his later saurian-cave bonding quest and he doesn't show up in Fuckshit Tower for his wahn-on-wahn match. Obviously he and Phaesus's credit scene also won't play.

That's kind of what I'm saying. Everything he's involved with is incredibly insignificant it wouldn't take anything away from the game if he was just completely removed. He is such a dull, forgettable, and pointless character with the worst voice acting in the game.
>>
My guess is Raghnall is just there for worldbuilding reasons. to show that "capable fighters" besides arisen exist. The theme seems to be that most powerful people in the setting become selfish or corrupt, which is why pathfinder becomes really mad when you're like "nah, I'm gonna do what I want despite being sovran"

I've retroactively interpreted him as the surrogate for all the players that want some grand resolution to the side quests/excuses to travel. Disa's machinations, and saving the Arborheart, and the Battahl assassins, and all the other facets of the setting that should be secondary to the Arisen. If you run out the clock on the duel, he flat out says he doesn't matter compared to the Dragon which is the big clue in for those too slow to get the importance or the Cycle to the player character i.e. Arisen. It is cute in a meta way that the other failed Arisen are also distracted with what amounts to their own side quests.

Legion's Might is cute for a cliff traversal trick that may as well be done with a wakestone, but I don't see how you scrounge up enough tokens to acquire it without leveling up enough to make it unnecessary. Mages rarely die in a proper party.
>>
>>583329739
I can understand that, some enemies are really overtuned, Chimeras in general are very tough and feel more like mid to end-game enemies and Drakes as you mentioned have that bullshit charged attack, it think it still does a lot of good but some changes are pretty questionable.

There'll be no preload on steam since it will just be adding on to the 'Dragon's Dogma 2' entry already in your steam library and not a separate executable to launch. For preload to function with it would have to re-encrypt your game files and prevent you from playing the game at all until the dlc launches.

You can go search on the steam forums and find people detailing this issue since 2024/2025, it's only more noticeable because the patch fixed performance via messing with the navmesh.
>>
Just 4 more days till i uninstall all my mods and gain 15fps
>>
>>583339834
Right, but it's gone from a rare bug to a common bug.
I doubt it's "messing with the navmesh" that's caused it. Has to be something to do with unloading assets or whatever.

I did not have any issues with menu's before the patch. Now I do.
>>
>>583340382
I only mentioned the performance being fixed by the navmesh as a point of people noticing their stable fps and smooth frametiming get gutted in half more when pausing/unpausing the menu. Probably should've worded it better lol.

As for it being a rare bug, it wasn't. Plenty of people made threads about it over the years on various sites, whether it was pausing, scrolling through inventory/vocation, or just sitting at the main menu start screen.

>I only mentioned the performance being fixed by the navmesh as a point of people noticing their stable fps and smooth frametiming get gutted in half more when pausing/unpausing the menu.
Please don't insinuate that it's only noticeable because we now have higher frames. It is absolutely chugging when entering menus to a point where inputs gets lost.
It absolutely did not exist for me prior to the update.

The only thing that could happen prior was crashing to desktop when trying to change skills at a campfire. It was about a 25% chance and seemed to be only specific campfires.
Now it's all of them. I can only change skills at a vocation guild.

For me, I think the performance gained is not worth the price of shitty menu's and crashing.
I sure hope it gets fixed with the DLC.

Not the WorksOnMachine angle..

Well, anon, I'm glad it somehow didn't exist for you prior to the performance patch, it's a shame this one exception couldn't be the rule for hundreds-thousands-MILLIONS of other Arisen.

But I don't think they'll get it fixed unless they find a way to do real time pausing of the world being rendered still while in menus.

Yeah it's kinda lame how everything outside of the settlements is just pre-placed oxcart & pawn spawn points instead of more travelling parties, guards etc.

In DD1, some NPCs & guards would actively travel between settlements. In DD2 there's nothing but the oxcarts and pawns that spawn in at same places when you're in the area. You could make excuses and say it's because the "world is bigger" or it's "too dangerous" for travelling, but the game has the random events to save NPCs who were out travelling by foot, and there's quests to help guards who have set out on foot, but they didn't bother to actually have that happening in-game for some reason. Kinda lazy.

I think if I had to choose one thing I would change about 2 it would be making Brants missions closer to the Wyrm Hunt.

That's close to something I was pondering yesterday. I very much enjoyed the "story and side quest" pre-Dragon DDDA as a tutorial that usually introduced a boss monster before you might encounter it exploring. I think my ideal Dragon's Dogma would be one-half open world exploration RPG like DD2, and one-half rogue-like dungeon crawler with unique boss/mobs combinations and behaviors. BBI did this very sparingly.

>>583375567
In DD1 I really did enjoy that "monster escalation" of the first game. Things like the Ogre in the mines as you go through to the Shadow Fort really presented a step up in challenge, followed by the Griffin hunt and so on and the way the game gives you a little taste of the Hydra at the very start and brings it back round later as an optional side challenge.

Because no one can possibly know what they "need" without a baseline experience. It's a terminal case of Bethesda-brain to be pondering mods before you even play the game through once.
>>
>>583376680
Staying on my current one. I'm out of range for most hires, but I think it's not a big deal overall. I just hope that being above level 50 won't impact the difficulty of the expansion too much. But I don't think I have the energy to collect everything I have now on a different character, which is relevant since there's going to be a layered armor system of some sort in the expansion.

>>583367428
I would recommend these:

https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/146?tab=description
Particularly the file named, in my opinion vanilla's minimap is way too big:
>Better UI - Minimap - Vanilla Smaller

https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/48
If you want to increase the FOV and tweak certain camera behaviors

https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/1563
This one decreases the blush effect, there's a lot of options

https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/1566
Last patch messed with the exposure and causes the screen to flicker slightly when the game's brightness changes, this fixes that

https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/1224
If you want a nicer butt for female characters, you'll need https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/902 to apply the preset, you can ignore the rest of the requirements but obviously the skimpy armors are good if you want to properly "enjoy" the preset, up to you how much you want to lewd your game up.

https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/5?tab=description
if you do want more lewd stuff I recommend this one in particular, specifically the "Optional Skimpy Armors Collection - AP" file, to get these to work you will need to use the following mods:

I had no idea that Dark arisen was launching in a just a few days. Should I wait until it drops before starting a new save?

Also it seems that they have been very sparce with information about what it actually includes? Is it going to be like BBI? I'm glad that they didn't drop the game completely, It's endgame + the lack of Dungeons with unique gear and random loot-tables really killed DD2 for me initially. Has there been any improvements since launch?

depends on the skills you use. best DPS is probably the twirly basic attack which is physical but almost everything else is magic.

I tend to go dwarven for the spears that aren't innately enchanted. Otherwise full elven if it's the cold or fire one. You can always put on Verve and Sagacity together anyway for the "spells" mixed with melee.

Melee overall is more interactive, since you need to worry about positioning and hitting weak spots. With magic you also gotta worry about defensive positioning and aiming, but usually it isn't very hectic unless you got mods, or if you don't have a pawn to draw aggro for you.

I started out as a Sorcerer main but am leaning more toward Mystic Spearhand/Warrior now, unless the lightning whip and any other spells they add make Sorc/Mage more than just nuke/buff dispensers.

Is there any reason at all to bother with the Unmoored world? It honestly sounds incredibly bothersome to engage with.

The dyeing mechanic isn't immediately thrust upon players, so they never bother with it. Most people are feckless idiots that can't manage finding a specific vendor and then taking the items unprompted to a specific merchant.

Unmoored is completely manageable at level 40, and it just keeps dumping exp on you anyway. There's no way to know what they will consider difficult in the DLC. 40 has been mentioned, but really DD cares about the gear lower level. 40 with Battahli gear is different than 40 with Agamen gear is different than 40 with Unmoored gear.

Alright help my retard ass out please. I'm sure you guys did the same thing as me for DD2 and made separate steam accounts to have multiple save files.

So how do I take one of those DD2 save files from an alt steam account, and fit it into the second save slot of my primary account? I'll still be able to get both hired like normal right?

not what i expected for DD but we'll see how it plays out.
i do hope they approach music in the DLC differently than the base game though. straight downgrade both in quality and how BGM was used compared to the first game.
Melodies of Gransys fixes the former but only a larger rework can fix the latter.

Big issue is that most players make their own Main Pawn a Mage or Archer, so there's a huge saturation of them in the Rift.
At the same time, most Players are like to use melee classes, so Fighter/Warrior Pawns are perceptively redundant; they'd rather fill their ranks with a Mage, Archer, Sorcerer, and Thief before they add a second sword to the team.
>>
>>583427364

I do notice that most male pawns seem to hang out around the sub-20 thumbs-up/hearts territory, though those ones are usually undergeared. I personally try to go out of my way to hire dude pawns just for the audio variety if nothing else. I could've sworn I heard one of the male pawn VAs in Vermintide 2 or something.

I'm kind of worried the expansion armors are going to lean too hard into the "fur robes" look due to the Chill mechanic. Not that I don't like that aesthetic but I want variety.

I don't think I'm gonna manage to reach endgame on this new file before the expansion hits at this rate, sadly. Wasn't intending to do the tower and hit unmoored until after it just to see how hard it gets stomped on with the power creep, but only being level 30 feels kinda bad.
It's nice seeing stuff come together though. My arisen and pawn are starting to get chunky. Still not entirely sure what vocation to settle on for both, but the 6 skill stuff has been great.

>corrupted chimera
I had trouble with my lvl 70 or so fighter and enjoyed the challenge for quite a bit, but my MSH friend just teleported on the goat's head and killed it without any trouble. Didn't beat the game btw.
>>
>>583439264
Yeah I was only lv25 at the time, so I was surprised a quest flat dropped something like that. My pawns got obliterated and a few attempts I barely nudged the health bars, so I cut and ran.
Good to know I should wait a fair bit on it though.

In my experience with Monster Hunter updates every time Capcom posts a release date it's always a day earlier for PST timezone.

How is she more cross-eyed than the other pawns with that face. Maybe eye spacing? It's characterful so don't tweak it arisen

Yes, but you also need to bring the right stage gear. There are some very solid pieces of gear that can be found before Battahl, but I'm fairly certain that fight expects you to have that level of gear and your vocations developed.

An actual piece of armor in DD:DA was called Silk Lingerie. It rode up the ass crack more than the Jeweled Sandals or Ranger's Tights in DD2 do.

what if we ask the clanker to merge dd1 with dd2. or add bbi to dd2.

any friendly neighbourhood bakers?

If i want to play bbi i go play dd1 or ddon
>>
>>583443627
It's just bridging them. DD2 gameplay in BBI might be possible, but it will look exactly as it already does in DD1, you'd have to run both games at once, and DD1 being difficult to mod will probably be an obstacle.

Now that we are getting close to the end of Vanilla DD2, what was your biggest disappointment about DD2?

Personally I hated the removal of random loot-tables and farmable dungeons. I feel like they removed one of the best aspects differentiating this franchise from other games of this genre. The world in DD2 felt incredibly static due to this, I never had a reason to visit any location I had been before, and it made the world feel incredibly barren in comparison to Dragons dogma's original world. I also miss Mystic knight quite a bit
