If you used any Vocation other than Figther or Warrior, you didn't beat the game.
>>3470188What is the difference between the two in this game?
>>3470190Fighter is sword and board, warrior uses 2-handers
>>3470188If you use tired memes to start a thread, you didn't actually make a post.
>>3470190they play 10x better, warrior specially
>>3470198>meleefag can't readmakes sense
spearhand is just superior
>>3470188Not like anyone wants to beat it
>>3470204why do I need to read books?will they help me chop down a saurian's tail?likewise, will those books protect you from me splitting your skull with my axe, huh magesissy?
>>3470207honorary martial vocationbut still too tainted by m*gick
I was hyped for this before it came out but it sounds moderately disappointing so far. I’ll buy it when it’s on sale half off and they remove the Denuvo.Are there any more hybrid or advanced or hidden classes than we knew at release?
>>3470238philosophy has been a cornerstone of the warrior ethos for all time and it's foundational to the very game you are talking about. you'd be killed by a smarter warrior, who actually knows what he's fighting for. not that you can read well enough to understand this post.
>>3470260>The society that separates its scholars from its warriors will have its thinking done by cowards and its fighting by fools
>>3470252no, everything is exactly as advertised and there are no "secret" vocations
>>3470238Have you ever had a paper cut? Shit fucking hurts. I'd rather get cut by a sword than paper. Books are full of paper, and that makes them more dangerous than swords could ever hope to be.
>>3470290Any they really killed off Mystic Knight?
>>3470388>Lightning riposte works on living armor I guess I know my new strategy
>>3470388yeah, you have mystic spearhand now which is highly more offensive but has a much better survivavilty due to the invincible bubbleWhat's weird is that the color scheme for vocations isn't complete at all so they probably were aiming for more vocations but cut them out, even still I don't think mystic knight would fit unless they changed mystic spearhand to green/blue.
>>3470441>can’t play mystic knight in dd1 because my cloak clips through my shield>can’t play mystic knight in dd2 because they replaced it with muh Darth maul
>>3470443capes are even worse in dd2, the models don't fit correctly for many different sizes, big and small
>>3470252The whole thing is three steps forward, but three steps back.
>>3470483DisagreeAs it stands, BBI is about the only big strength DD1 has over DD2
>>3470483This
god i wish this game had better optimization to run on my toasterwhats fucked is that I can run better looking games no probo
>>3470689That’s nice. I disagree with that, too.
>>3470758Denuvo definitely isn't doing it any favors.

>>3470758specs?
>>3470758>Dragon's Dogma II is currently the most demanding game ever released. >Its not even in the top 10 best lookingRE engine was a fucking mistake.
>>3471070add in some more vibrant colors and its easily the best looking rpg to date on a technical levelhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKGa55laIk8Capcom should work on a good denoiser for the path tracing already present (but hidden away)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnYOKXS_wuo
>>3471070Feels like graphics are evolving backwards.
>>3471154The npcs of the those games are nothing alikeAlso W3 doesnt have RT
The performance issues have nothing to do with the graphics and this is well established at this point. I get a stable 30fps at 1080p with a 1070, and almost 60 outside of cities. It’s the stupid shit they did with NPCs that probably sounded cool while they were developing the game, but clearly didn’t impact gameplay or the player’s experience very much because no one even noticed what it’s doing.
>>3471070I've got a 1650Ti and an i5-9300H8gb RAMyes, it's a laptop. Shoot me. It played everything in 2018 when i bought it.total europoor so upgrade is not a prospect without significant planningI get like 40 in the field but Vernworth brings me to like 12-15. It's unreal
>>3471875meant for>>3471068
>>3470260>who actually knows what he's fighting forSome retarded ideology or "muh friends" does not make you a better fighter
>>3471915knowing who to fight and why and what to think about death is important for your own morale, anon. a battle is more than a meeting of techniques.
>>3471875that's a funny coincidenceI played my 30 hours on my alienware laptop: GTX 1660Ti plus a i7-9750H1080p, everything on Low, got solid 50 fps on the open world (even while figthing a Minotaur and Griffin at the same time), 60 fps on dungeons and 30-35 fps on Vernworthultimately unnistalled because I don't like using my laptop for gaming and been meaning to upgrade my desktop for some months now (should do it after computex when AMD and Intel release their new CPU line)have you tried setting the CPU affinity to High?gives a significant fps boost and removed stutter even back in those initial few days before the first patch
>>3471070It's shit but the Yanderedev-tier NPC code and Denuvo are doing it way more harm than the engine itself.
>>3471154Cape clipping through the cape triggers me the most
>>3470188I used Warfarer with Mace+Shield and Fire Hammer... checkmate.
>>3471920>read 100 philosophy books start to finish>receive your family sword, passed down through the household for 12 generations, from your father as your mother wishes you safe return>depart for the battlefield determined to defend the good people of your soil and their heritage>your opponent has been drinking piss and vinegar from a cup since he was a baby>he kicks you in the dick and smashes your head with a rock
>>3472756a fake anecdote isn't an argument, nobody is arguing that you don't have to be tough. but, amusingly enough, this is why you'd break before a fight even begins as you focus on the other person and not your own motivations.

Can't even play the game without horrific frame drops, no wonder people stopped playing

>>3489456see >>3485232
>>3470188Just got the true ending and came looking for a thread, man what a tripThe framerate issues soured the experience for some time but the game grew on me so much it became a GOTY contender even though this year already has so many great RPGs. I wish the game didn't have these performance issues because having your AAA title chug on toasters and modern consoles is honestly a death nailThe game also puts so much emphasis on exploration so I can imagine how people can burn out on it, which is a bummer because I feel like a lot of people are going to miss out on the latter half and end entirely. It's a crying shame I spent half of my post listing issues when I truly loved the game despite them
>>3489871Wow, that mod looks amazing, I wish there was something similar for the original game.
>3489880Performance is the real problem, but people choose to make a fuss about bullshit inconsequencial mtx insteadThe game is quite CPU bound, as physics and npc's seem to be tied to a single cellAs such I'm not expecting the game to get any better than this performance-wise, really like Crysis more powerful cpus will unfortunately be the only solution to thisYeah the game overall is pure funI have some gripes, but as it stands I'd say the only thing DD1 has over 2 is BBI>The game also puts so much emphasis on explorationYupOn that regrad it reminded me of Gothic 2 the entire timeThe world begs to be explored and you can easily drop 20 hours between each main quest just wandering around and doing side contentIt's the one aspect of the game that's just objectively so much superior to DD1, that I can't understand how anyone might argue that Gransys overworld is better designed>3490013MTFramework is quite old and a pain to work withREngine on the other hand is quite straigthfoward to mod, weirdly enough despite no official tools and Capcom's current anti-modding stanceStill if you think difficulty tweaks is impressive, you ain't seen anything yethttps://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/691
>sad shill threadNot an RPG.
>>3490183rpgs would make much sense given its a quasi-medieval settingbut there are explosing arrows...
>>3485232I don't get it.At a fundamental level it do nothing to alter the core gameplay loop, just like most mods. There is a reason why BBI added a lot of enemy variety.
>>3490685the point of that mod isn't to change the core gameplay loop, but to make it more challenging (if the user so wishes it)lack of challenge which the anon was lamenting about
>>3490181can I ask why you removed one meme arrow from the quotes turning them into simply greentexts?
>>3491113>>3491113typoi wrote the entirity of that post on notepad++, then copypasted it on to 4chanby the time I noticed it, I had already clickled the "Post" button
>>3491426I see, thank you for the mod recommendations, I am impressed with how many mods there are, I always knew that RE engine was moddable, but I didn't expect this.
>>3490181[SPOILER] Good [/spoiler]
>>3492680>I am impressed with how many mods there areyou have no ideaso far the only thing that doesn't seem possible is altering and adding quests and levelsbut otherwise pretty much everything seems possible, including entire new vocationshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMeI7Jm3BBAI fully expect this game to have a Requiem style total overhaul in 1 year
>>3470188Whatever you say rape victim
Capcom is savvy, they know gamers hang out on 4chan and they sent their shill army here saying the game is a "blast'. Alas I fell for it out of sheer boredom and lack of good games to play The point of Denuvo is to keep people from playing the game so the truth doesn't get out.It's the AAA corporate strategy of earning ESG bucks while hoodwinking the consumer so they blow $76 dollars but don't even play the game because the game itself is inferior
>>3472798>muh motivations.Fuck off boomer. The best warriors are the ones who do it because they have bloodlust.
>>3492971seems (you) talk from experience
>>3493924Shouldn't have said the g-word. Diversity is Gransys's greatest strength.
>>3493018bloodlust is a motivation, retard. a mad dog is easy to put down though, because their reaction to stimulus is predictable.
>nearly a month old thread>85 replies>gaem is like 2 months oldlolkek even
They fix performance issues yet? Been waiting for them to fix it before picking this up.
>>3494254The performance ain't gonna get better than what it isThe problem is that physics are all bound to a single cpu cell, hence why framerate tanks to the 30fps in VernworthBut outside of that city the performance is fine, if you have something like a RX580 and a 1st generation Ryzen cpu, on Low you should get stable 60fps everywhere else on the game world
Hello, when can I expect an expansion pack, gold edition or DLC that adds content to the game? Later this year would be too soon?
>>3496018I wouldn’t expect it for another year or two. They’re still trying to unfuck the base game it sounds like.>t. Not buying it until they remove Denuvo and it’s on sale half off
>>3470188>If you used any Vocation other than Figther or Warrior, you didn't beat the game.Then how come I saw the credits?
>>3494251It's mind blowing how hard they dropped the ball.
>>3496018>>3496034it will probably be late this yearMonHun Wilds comes out in Spring next year after all
>>3476444I thought they took mystic Knight out.
>>3496362That's DD1
Now that the dust has settled...What went wrong? Or right?
>>3497742>no definitive edition>no -75% off salestill a lot of dust, bro
>>3497742>What went wrong?Doubling down on the open world meme instead of focusing on the game's potential as a dungeon crawler.Doubling down on the open world meme and then using an engine that isn't built for open worlds and then not optimizing it to handle open worlds.Not firing Itsuno and not putting Kinoshita in charge of the project.>or right?I think giving all of the vocations unique weapons was a good idea (I never played Mystic Knight in DD1). I like the improved physics from RE engine.
>>3497749And more importantly...>not cracked
>>3497742Right>much much better open world level design>improved enemy design>sense of exploration and adventure>side quests>overall improved vocations (mage an wizards are the only one to really suffer from downsizing 6 to 4 skills)>less jank and meatier animations and sound fxWrong>vocation balance is fucked>no proper hard mode>no mega dungeon>all the good loot is found primarly on shops, instead of the world and dungeons>main quest relies heavily on the player knowing well the lore of the previous game and also doing plenty of side quests to learn about the state of the world (as the main quest barely explains anything about the lore and the characters)
>>3501293>Bussin there doing the "I kneel" at the end.NGL that was pretty good anon, lol
>>3470188you are a retard, if you only played 1-2 vocations, you didn't beat the game. not until you master all vocations can you say you beat the game.

>>3501769I ain't playing Mage, nigga.
it's official dogma bros...this game is a flophttps://x.com/DragonsDogma/status/1795387174453395631
>accidentally died in the very first goblin fight because I slipped off a slope and got jumped by two other goblins while ragdollingOkay, this game is pretty cool.
>>3502188You can max it by playing a warfarer too, I believe.
I took a break from the game over 2 months ago and can't bring myself to go back to it to finish it. I think the next thing I was supposed to do in the main quest was go to the coronation, but I generally just fucked around and explored the map. Went to the volcano camp through the backpassages and such.
>>3506350I’m waiting for Denuvo to be removed and then I’ll buy it on sale half off
>>3506350try another vocation to mix things up
>he's just posting webms by himself againsad... you hate to see it
Are there any mods that are considered essential? Sort of like Dinput8 was for the first game.
>>3511400Fluffy's Mod Manager and REFrameworkThink of the latter as DD2 version of Skyrim's Script ExtenderThe modding scene is already quire varied, DD2 might just be the most moddable game Capcom ever releasedWhich is ironic considering that their recent anti-modding statements and supposedly DD2 comes with an advanced form of Denuvo (called Enigma) which has purposefully implemented not to allow mods lol
>>3497742>wrongRehashed the main storyline from DD1 that went absolutely no where after certain point, all the dialogs have 0 meaning aside from what the dragon says.Post-game is extremely underwhelming, there's no new content, there are like 2 new boss monsters and you get to fight them back to back, no cool collectable gear to look forward to because the best weapons are purchasable from the shop right away.
>>3511400basic: Fluffy's Mod Manager, REFramework, Graphics Suite, Low Poly Lantern or Smaller Lanterngameplay: Wild Loot, Custom Difficulty Tweaks and/or True Difficulty, Random Encounters or Epic Encountersif you're a lolifag/shotafag or a heightlet that wants to make yourself, Smallman's Height Mod>>3511564Enigma isn't a more advanced DRM, it's a shittier one that they stuffed in just to still have something in there when the Denuvo license expires.

Tell Capcom to remove Denuvo and put this on sale so I can buy their trash already, I refuse in its current state. You hear me Capcom? I know you’re lurking here motherfucker
>>3517757Tell Capcom to remove Denuvo so I can pirate it*
>>3517757Capcom is waaay too out of touch to be lurking a hip and cool website like 4channel.It's 2024 and the monsters in their games still have the aggression of deer stunned by headlights.
>>3511400i personally recently added No Stamina Sprint Out Of Combat, which is invaluable and still has stamina behave otherwise normal in that stamina consumption is vanilla as soon as soon as you pull out a weapon.Also not as essential but massive quality of life is Throw Me Up, which lets you bind the launch ability to a button to have your pawn do it whenever you want- separate from their actual selected ability. Makes no sense that my 7ft pawn knows how to throw me up and suddenly forgets because somehow its the same tier of ability as golf swinging goblins across the map
>>3518640Cool
>>3518667>i personally recently added No Stamina Sprint Out Of Combatnice cheat dood
>>3520896thanks, it really saves alot of time over long journeys not having to slow down and walk for literally no discernible reason other than someone forgot the quality of life from the first game except not when youre in towns. yknow out of combat

You can now do a free trial of up to 2 hours, seems like a weird way to do a demo, but it is what it is.

>>3540973Why recreate the DnD book in a strange way when the official artists did one and an anon modified it?
I heard this game is kind of mid
>>3552447if you want a combat focused ARPG with a great sense of adventure, then this game is great
>>3552447It is more than mid it is not worth playing. It needs another 2-3 years of development at least. The best part the exploration is ruined by the shit enemy placement, lack of enemy types, no interesting places to explore, and the difficulty curve being way too easy. I bought a new GPU for this game and bought it at launch and dropped it at 18 hours.
>>3554705>It is more than mid it is not worth playing. It needs another 2-3 years of development at least.the salt this game managed to generated is nothing short of astoundingdespite the flaws it's still a solid game, but reading these seething replies make it sound like it the game is even more broken than Alpha Protocol
>>3554705>It needs another 2-3 years of development at least.If Itsuno was given 2-3 more years he would squander them making the map 2 to 3 times bigger and filling it with more half-baked content. I say that but that's probably what he's doing RIGHT NOW, assuming a DLC is in the works.
>>3555454I am actually surprised the game is a stable and polished as it is despite being obviously rushed, the worst thing about it is the performance, but I don't think anyone can say this game is buggy or broken, it just... Works.
>>3552447if you've heard that on /v/, then it was probably by one of these "people"
>>3558174Are these "people" in the room with us right now?
>>3558183possibly
>>3470188i didnt beat the game regardless because its boring
Someone explain to me what the point of this character was?>she's featured prominently in the promotional material>she's on the fucking front cover of theg ame box>she's empress of half the game world>you do a grand total of one (1) quest that indirectly involves her>if you fail the quest she just dies and the story quickly moves on>if you do keep her alive, she's never relevant again after that so nothing changes>even her fucking bodyguard is a more important character than her
>>3544886Before tables were invented, every meal was essentially a picnic.
>>3470268what's the issue here? cowards are smart and idiots make good soldiers.
>>3562312Because Dragon's Dogma approach to characters is more systemic.They don't make a narrative or scenarios like in Starfield where tons of characters are unkillable and just sit down to recover if they get reduced to 0 HP and then stand up.You can kill pretty much anyone, you can romance pretty much anyone, you can complete quests or solve scenarios in various ways because the game is also systemic.
>>3562319While that's partially true, it doesn't actually answer the question. Anyone who's played the game could easily name a dozen characters who are more noteworthy than her, despite multiple of those also being killable. Her being killable isn't the point, the point is why did they choose to focus on her so much when she has literally nothing to do in the game? Why put her in all your marketing material, why choose her as the face of your game on the front cover, when she's only relevant for what amounts to half of a single quest? They could've made her a quest giver like Brant except for the Battahl, which would've been a great way to flesh out that area a bit more, or at the very least included her in the actual story in some way. Instead she's sidelined literally minutes after she's introduced. It's like the script just breaks at that point and the game immediately segues into the endgame. The poor way she's handled contibutes in no small part to the way the Battahl half of the game feels so undecooked.
>>3562333firstly, nice trips. And secondly, you have good points, if she was a more major player and provided quests (that were worth having) she would have a much greater impact. And maybe that was the intention, a lot of aspects feel like they needed more time and fleshing out after-all. But to answer why she is so heavily involved in promos. My best guess is she is the only "major" beastren character, and so they had to use her to show to people who might not be familiar with the series, that the beast race exists.
>>3562333You're asking why she isn't a bigger deal because she's on the cover/poster and the answer to that is simple. It's the same reason Ulrika is there.>both represent their respective races>both look appealing from a design perspective (not some ugly old man) and not too slutty (like Wilhelmina might be perceived as)>they serve as juxtaposition to each other, with one being more of a queen like ruler and the other a commoner adventurerThey worked for marketing purposes.Could they have chosen Brant and Disa or something? Sure, but would that have worked better for marketing? No.
>>3472756Obviously, the piss and vinegar drinker actually read 300 philosophy books start to finish, hence his drinking and disregard for his own life and morality that makes him a supreme head-smashing warrior. You need to walk the path to truly embrace the power of nothingness.
>>3562346so it's all superficial dressing that serves no purpose other than maximizing profits. symbolic.
>>3552447It was a major disappointment and put capcom on my shitlist forever, no matter what form their next so-called 'redemption arc' takes. I just wanted a game that was better than the original, even by a little bit. I don't even want a DLC at this point.
>>3562345>she is the only "major" beastren characterHer bodyguard is a more significant character than her. Unless of course you're talking lorewise in which case yes, we're told that she's the empress and thus a very important character, but my issue is that nothing in the game actually shows this importance. The way her one quest is handled only highlights how meaningless her presence in the game is. They could've left her out of the game entirely and nothing would have changed.>>3562346>It's the same reason Ulrika is there.Ulrika plays a role in multiple parts of the game and is one of only two special romance NPCs. She's absolutely not the same as Nadinia. In fact she's the perfect example of how the game is perfectly capable of having an "expendable" character who still has her own role to play. The game has dozens of characters who get more content than her (Brant, Ulrika, Disa, Wilhelmina, the two Elf siblings, Sven, Lennart, Sigurd, the Dwarf guy, Phaesus, and that's just off the top of my head). My issue is less about the fact that she's on the cover and more about why they didn't actually use their cover character. If Nadinia is such a pivotal character from a marketing perspective, why not give her something to actually do in the game? If she really is a character that the devs made to appeal to the players, why did they refuse to let the players interact with her in any meaningful way?
>>3562359There is no character they could've put on the cover that would actually be "important" in the way you imagine because of the systemic nature.You're looking for characters that wouldn't fit in the more systemic approach they went for.
>>3562366Repeatedly shouting "systemic" isn't an argument, especially considering how linear and non-systemic the story is. And even if it was purely systemic, that didn't stop them from giving other characters much bigger roles than her.
ulrika is cute and totally had sex with my female arisen
>>3562392Ulrika is a slut and totally raped my male beastren arisen.
>>3562370It's a fact. The game as a whole was designed to be systemic. Including the characters. You failing to grasp this is not my problem.You're clearly completely unfamiliar with design direction. The more they leaned into the standard approach you seem to crave, the less systemic they would have to make it. If they then made everything in the game except the character systemic, that would create a hard clash which would've been genuinelly awful.You might not have liked what they did, but they would've needed to make a very different game to make what you want.But this is clearly a topic beyond you and I would have to explain so many other things in regards to game design, game direction, game dev and so on that I frankly don't have the time or patience for, considering how there's zero benefit to me. It's not like you're interested in challening your ideas anyway.
>>3562407If it's truly impossible to make characters play a role in a """""systemic""""" game, how do you explain every other major character that isn't Nadinia? Why is the the only """""systemic""""" character that gets sidelined like this?Please think before you post.
>>3562407>this is clearly a topic beyond you and I would have to explain so many other things in regards to game design, game direction, game dev and so on that I frankly don't have the time or patience forThis is what mindless fanboy delusion looks like.
>>3470188>thread has been up for 3 months I thought everyone who bought DD2 already played it and dumped it?
Game and story just suck, story boils down to gay meta shit everyone is doing nowadays>Pathfinder is basically the DM and he just wants a story with dragon fights over and over again you the player free the cardboard characters and give them their free will not just your pawn Itsuno is a hackI could forgive the generic story if he didn't gimp the vocations and outright remove some of them or gave some interesting places to explore that weren't the same copy pasted cave
>>3562407>2-digit IQ trying to sound intellectual
>>3562362>I just wanted a game that was better than the originalthe game is better than the original in most regards>>3562671the Pathfinder is actually the SeneschalDD2 story relies on the player being familiar with the worldbuilding of DD1what the Pathfinder wanted was for the Arisen to break the false cycle the world was trapped in and return to the "normal" cycle (i.e. like the one in DD1)>if he didn't gimp the vocationsaside from mage and sorc, all the vocations play objectively better (and even those two have some welcome additions)
>>3562719The fuck is this gay ass meme.
>>3562407Next bloviation you should try to work in "media literacy" in between systemics.
>>3563068The pathfinder is not the Seneschal, it's literally the beastren guy who founded vermund. You didn't even play DD2 and yet you shill for it All the vocations are gimped and suck
>>3563105In the Japanese dialogue, Rothais is literally referred to as the SeneschalWhoever translated the game into English did a piss poor job when it comes to these detailsAnd ultimately it would make no sense for the Pathfinder not to be the SeneschalHe's a higher being, with near omnipotency, that rarely intervenes and seeks to guide the Arisen into becoming the protector of the WorldLiterally shares the same characteristics and fills the same role as the Seneschal did>All the vocations are gimped and suckprove it then
>>3562350Nah the piss drinker simply doesn't know any better
DLC/Expac this year or the next? Keep in mind that Dark Arisen released 11 months after the original game release...
More like Dragon's Ligma heheheheh
>>3569454If DLC is in the plans (and most major Capcom releases in the past 5 years had them within 1 year of the original release) then yesTGS is the most likely announcement date imoI doubt they would launch it next year as MH Wilds is due in March - avoiding product cannibalization is in their commercial interest after all
>>3570259Do we have an official release date for Wilds? I thought that was just "2025", though it would make sense to release in March, Capcom loves releasing their big games on that month.
>>3570506>Do we have an official release date for Wilds?No official date, just speculationBut March is the most reasonable estimate>Capcom loves releasing their big games on that month.Because in Japan, end of March coincides with the end of their fiscal yearSo by releasing major games in the final weeks of the month, they get a nice fat boost to their financial numbersStonks go up and their investers are pleased and sated (probably get a surprise bonus too)Of course this means these games are pretty much rushed out of the door (what happened to DD2), but for Capcom the reward outweighs the PR hit Plus these games all get at least 1 year of post release support, so by the time the final DLC drops they have given all the techincal polish they will ever care to giveCapcom is dead set on at least a 10% value increase each year
Gonna be funny when the DD2 dlc is like 2 hours long and maybe gives 1 more enemy type
>>3570617Unsustainable growth at the expense of everything... God, I hate kikes.
>>3470191that's an interesting distinction, but 'Fighter' is has always been and will always be a terrible term.
>>3477217If you can be a summoner, then I don't know why they'd have to or would be specifically beasts. In Skyrim it's like spirits, which makes more sense.
>>3556192Itsuno already fumbled with Devil May Cry V. So Dragon's Dogma 2 being below expectations is unsurprising.
>>3571545
>>3571036I don't understand, why would that be funny?
>>3572200Because the series is plagued with rushed and cut content
>>3570259I don't think they need to worry about product cannibalization for DD2, only people that are going to buy the DLC are diehard fans that can't let go. Capcom absolutely slaughtered any chance they had of bringing in and retaining a fresh audience.
>>3573565you never knowlike >>3572738 said, the series problem is the fact its games keep been released in a undercooked statethe reason for this imo is because Capcom just doesn't believe that open-world ARPGs can be successful, despite the fact that since Oblivion and specially Skyrim all evidence keeps points to the contraryCapcom said DD is now a "core brand" (whatever that means), but until they all in on the concept the franchise will never achieved Elden Ring levels of successHonestly if they weren't stupid, after DD2 fully wraps up, they should start production on DD Online 2But this time release it to internal audiences and keep the game regurlarly updatedIt might not still dethrone WoW, but it would have the potential to get close
the best part was the exploration, but that also meant once I reached the volcano area I dropped itgood>pawn banter>exploring>first half of the game (before I realized there's just variations of most enemies I've fought a thousand times)bad>pawn system seems worse>last half of my time playing the game>""""story""""" and """"characters"""""
>>3574423>pawn system seems worseimo about the only thing about pawns that declined over the original was the "knowledge chair" equivalentit's specially bad considering on extensive the system was in DDOotherwise, I found pawn AI far more reliable and the Pawn Quest mechanic was a touch of genius
>>3470188if you played this game your a fag
>>3577055Pawn AI is still pretty bad, just like with DD1 they fall off of cliffs/into the water all the time. They also still cannot handle golems by themselves, they also repeat dialogue waaaay too much.
>>3577940>hey fall off of cliffs/into the water all the timenot my experiencegolems will always be troublesome without blunt weapons, otherwise they figth well enough, but biggest improvement to their use in combat imo are the new commands

>>3600797that doesn't prevent the DLCKinoshita is still the lead game designer (he made Dark Arisen) and if there's going to be a DLC this year like the leaks suggested, that would mean the damn thing was being made even before the game released so Itsuno still had a hand in itstill, it's a shamewith Itsuno gone there's nothing to expect in the future from Capcomhe mentions moving to a new studio, could it be he and Kamiya (possibly Mikami) are working together?

>>3603678I don't trust this Rift faggot and neither should you.
>>3470188watched some Asmongold stream and he said DD1 is a much better game. the shitty steam reviews and the shit performance issues made me shy away from playing that. I guess I'll wait for an insane price drop to consider playing this shit.
>>3604491If Asmongold tells you that sucking dick is good will you do it too?
>>3604604You're essentially sucking his dick playing this game considering he's one of the poster boys for it alongside the tranny Sphere hunter
>>3604613I thought your fave streamer said DD1 was a much better game than DD2? But now he is a poster boy for DD2? Also, do you have any original ideas and opinions or do you just let content creators think for you?
>>3604838>content creatorsI fucking hate this phrase so much it’s unreal bros
>>3604838Different anon, just saying you're sucking streamers/content creator dicks from you playing this
>>3604976Same.>>3605022That doesn't make much sense since pretty much every streamer turned their backs on this game, they got wowed by the trailers and game previews and then forgot about it in a week, I played it for about 150 hours, greatly enjoyed it, wished it had more to do and will probably replay it next year or when an expansion is released, despite the game's many issues, it's still quite an unique experience.

Has one schizo seriously been astroturfing this piece of shit for FIVE months!?
>>3606085:)
I still regret buying this. Think of everything you can do with $76 dollars. After this I will never ever buy a Denuvo/Steam/Capcom game again. Fool me once... and all normies must die
>>3606043>press square>press square>press square press square press squaresip... now THAT is gameplay
>>3606085>Has one schizo seriously been astroturfing this piece of shitYou contradict yourself. That’s one autist, not one schizo, and if he’s actually just one dude who is playing a game he likes, that’s not “astroturfing”, even if you personally dislike the game and don’t care for it. Perhaps the schizo is you, anon.
>>3606015Well, that enemy is quite easy, you could probably let your own pawns kill it and you could just watch and be fine.
>>3562312SEXO
>>3562312until we get insight into the game's development, we'll never know for certainbut my guess is simply that the Battahl was gutted to meet deadlinesunfortunately The Rift seems to have deleted that video for some reason, but he had a video of all the cut content for Talos which included plenty of attacks and scipted interactions with the terrain
Is DD2 worth playing? Is it true devs abandoned the game?
>>3609387>Is DD2 worth playing?yesthere's no ARPG with better combat, plus enemy design and feeling of adventure are still exceptional>Is it true devs abandoned the game?no one knowsthe last update was in july, but steamdb lists some depot updtes a few days ago and there's been rumors of dlc announcement at TGS

>>3611335Spearhand op
>>3611335A mystic knight died for this.
>>3611511>Mystic Knight died to be replaced by a superior VocationNice
>>3611740C'mon now. I liked spearhand but mystic knight was amazing. I would have liked having both. Spearhand felt more green blue than red blue to me personally.
>>3611765mystic knight was essentially a fighter with access to mage skills - though the magic parries were cool as hell, they should've kept those at leastwarfarer basically allows the same thing (a shame it sucks without this mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/951)I also would've preferred to have both, but between the two I prefer spearhand because it is an entirely new playstyle
>>3611793I used none of the spells, I used cannon and magic parry to make the cannon shoot a billion times and there's nothing like that in 2 that I'm aware of. I like doing perfect blocks with an enchanted shield but I still miss my boy MK. Hopefully dlc brings a couple new skills or vocations. Though I'd dump 100 hours in a new BBI.
>>3470188>desert faggotry>weird furfaggotryThe lolishit of the first game was bad enough, but why do they just fuck everything up so bad?
>>3611833what's wrong with deserts?
>>3611740>posts a picture of an inferior vocation>calls it superiorI prefer the overpowered Paladin in DD1 to the underpowered Darth Maul in DD2
>>3611934I feel like it's the opposite and spearhand is way too overpowered. Then again, combat in DD2 is all piss easy with shitty linear progression so everything felt piss easy.
>>3611935>the opposite>MK has a big shield which can negate damage>Spearhand has to rely on a timing stun
>>3611941Whuh? Spearhand has an entire invincibility bubble that tanks everything for several seconds and is highly spammable. I think they even had to nerf it because it was that dumb.
>the vocation icons implied we'd have perhaps 20-30 vocations, possibly more>there's only 10 in the actual game >vocations from the first game are missing this better be one big fucking DLC this $70 turd is woefully unfinished

>>3616573i have a hunch it's got to do with some kind of a particle effectbut i get 1-2 sec annoying slowdowns somewhat regularly nowwhereas up until now the game was perfectly smooth outside of cities with a 60 fps lock
so in my case it feels like it significantly expanded 1% lowsor idk i want to convince myself that maybe i simply didn't notice the slowdowns before but i don't think that's the case
>>3470251this guy is the perfect example of how undercooked / butchered the game ishe has his own ending slide with Phaesus if he survives, even though most people probably throw him off that ledge and therefore never get a chance to resurrect himthe pawns comment on him being some renowned warriorbut in the actual game he's just some random shmuck that you meet three times in a completionist walkthrough and never learn anything aboutJulien is a character of similar caliber in DDDA and he's involved in five quests
>>3616603>JulienFor me, it’s reviving him after killing him
>>3616612>you have to resurrect him and then visit him in jail several days later to get the best magic shield available at that pointi never would've figured that out without a guide
>>3616629Same
>>3616603I think they cut several questlinesLanzo is also good evidence of thispeople meme that he has more cutscenes than the cat queen and I think has some truth to itit's likely the devs intended for most quests to have that level of polish and the reason Lanzo's side quest had it and the cat queen's main quest didn't was simply because the they did the former first and by the time they were working on the latter they had already been told by Capcom's higher ups to quickly wrap the game's productionthe fact that Batthal has not even half of the quests Vermund has is also solid proof of this...
>>3619145Spooky, that's modded right? One of those random spawns mod?
>>3619472possibly the Enemy Spawner modthe cave itself is the one connecting Battahl to Volcanic Island
As a big fan of Dragons Dogma 1, is this game even worth buying? Why do people play this when I've heard nothing but negative reviews? Apparently the story is awfully short too?

>>3622076Tokyo Games Show
>>3622181I don't see it happening, it's too soon, it would be cool and there have been many important DD related announcements at past TGS events, but I feel like they might just briefly mention DD2, mention its sales, talk a little about the last patch and call it a day.
>>3623043>when you nut but she keeps sucking
So anyone's surprising nobody DD2 is abandoned. TGS had zero mention of DD2. I don't expect there to be any dlc

>>3627377DD success is largely due to international audiences, not the japanese oneand international audiences don't speak in moonrunesalso one of DDO biggest issues was the absurd amount of griding, because asians can't help but be autistic about that bullshit, so an international release would curb that stupidity

Short story = good story. The point of the game is the pit at the end or Bitterblack Isle. Everything before that is just filler.
>>3638455It's a shame they're not giving us a mega dungeon like BBI. That's what this game is missing.
>>3638457kek
>>3638459I cope by thinking of the roads and cliff formations as the dungeon. Just install a mod to put real loot in the chests instead of shit.
>>3638494>real loot in the chests instead of shitchest loot both in DDDA and DD2 is meant to be just shit for you to sell on shopsit's not like more exploration centric rpgs like morrowind and gothic, where finding a weapon/armor in the world is a special moment, as even the few chests in DDDA and DD2 that do have weapons/armor lose all their importance once you realise that after 2 in-game days they will reset that lootgetting new weapons and armor is entirely related to shopsthe only worthwhile loot is monster drops for weapon/armor upgrades
So if a thread isn't even close to bump limit after 6 months it's pretty safe to assume /vrpg/ will always hate that game, right? The only other game to even approach this level of "epic fail" was daggerfall.
>>3638883Saga is coming close to joining the group.
>>3638883I doubt anons check the date of the first postin that regard dragonsligma anon single-handedly is carrying DD2's perception in the eyes of some touristfor them it's just that vrpg has a 400 post DD2 threadI'm actually kinda impressed with that one anons dedicationbut on the other hand clinging to shitty forgettable games like that can't be healthylet's just hope he leaves a warning in this thread once he is inevitably going on a killing spree irl since people don't appreciate his fav game
>>3638883/vrpg/ doesn't really like action games, so it's not a surprise that Dragon's Dogma 2 (or DDDA) isn't popular here.
>>3639088/vrpg/ doesn't really like games, let alone fun onesand since /vrpg/ is mostly populated by midwits, this rabble is predominantly enamored with their misconceived idea of an rpg, not the actual realities of role-playing video gamesso it's no surprise the peak of the role-playing video game genre (the Action RPG subgenre) isn't popular here
>>3638876The loot resetting while also being mostly worthless is one of my biggest gripes with DD1. Because it otherwise has some of the most fun exploration and dungeon delving I've ever seen in a game.
Does this game have a story that's more coherently structured than the first? That was the main thing I was hoping for in a sequel.
>>3640401The story is significantly worse.
>>3639997yeahthe whole loot system is basically set up for the benefit of the upgrade grind system, not the exploration and dungeon delving aspectsits one of those elements that show DD really still is a jRPG at the end of the day>>3640401>a story that's more coherently structured than the firstno, the main story is very "raw"for one you must have knowledge of the setting's cosmology (i.e. the Dragon, the Rift, the Seneschal, the Eternal Return, the place of the Arisen in all of this)then you must be willing to search for information yourself outside the main quests - because in the main quests all the characters assume your avatar is caught up with all the latest events, so they don't waste much time explaining things to you outside the most important stuff - if you want to know more, you have to engage with the side content: you have to do side quests, talk with key npcs, read the few documents present in the game and generally explore the world (the pawns are useful in this, because they usually reveal lore when you discover points of interest)once you get over these two hurdles the main quests are logically consistentbut then you get to Batthaland it fully hits you just how incomplete the game isnow conceptually I like Batthal, it's a relentless high-level region with a though geography (with a difficulty mod, it makes for some pretty intense adventuring)but content it's painfully incomplete - it barely has 1/3 of Vermund's side-quests and even less main quests and the production levels are all over the place (some side-quests are clearly finnished as they have proper cutscenes and everything, but the main quests have none of that and in fact are very poor in terms of presentation)the region overall just lacks the depth of Vermund and it's content is awfully rushed - it's clear the devs were told to wrap up production when they where in the middle of making this regiononce you're done with Batthal you get to the Volcanic Island and the game ends
>>3640401No.Its even worse.
>178 daysDragons Ligma 2 sisters...

>>3644155Relatively poor technical performance even on strong current gen hardware, which bodes even worse for weaker older hardware.Echo chamber amplified and blew out of proportion how bad the performance is, acting like it's literally the worst PC port of all-time.People that never even played Dark Arisen seeing the hype from Dark Arisen fans and subsequently buying into the hype, but since they never played it, they had unreasonable expectations of what to expect since they never had a frame of reference in the first place. So, they get disappointed when the game doesn't meet their purely imaginary preconceived notions of what the game is supposed to be.Game launched at $70. And the bonuses of the $80 deluxe edition is just stuff that turns the game into braindead easy mode that actively disincentivizes you from actually playing the game.Ragebait right-wing content creators complain that the presence of non-white NPCs make the game "woke" and therefore bad.Lack of post-launch support. IItsuno is no longer at Capcom. No indication that an expansion a la Dark Arisen is on the horizon. Until last month's update that added QoL changes and Casual Mode (to an already casualized game), the only updates had just been bug fixes.Loud vocal minority of people that just wage hate campaigns against niche games solely because they have a small dedicated following decided to hate on this game, purely to troll its fanbase (see also: SaGa).

>>3644186I was just posting how I observed it's reception pre-release and post-release. Also, I posted legit criticisms of the game (performance issues, too expensive, too easy with deluxe bonuses and casual mode, lack of post-launch support).
>>3644155It sold well, it was just disappointing to newfags who expected some Assassin's Creed game with dragons.
>>3644173>Ragebait right-wing content creators complain that the presence of non-white NPCs make the game "woke" and therefore bad.And they were right.No, I'm not going to acknowledge the first game had black and arab characters in it or that the setting in both games is based in the Mediterranean where they wouldn't be out of place.Deal with it.
>>3644247The sad thing is, people unironically agree with this.
>>3644155This: >>3644173It's also important to note that while we the consumers might perceive the game as a failure, Capcom's execs seems quite content with the game's commercial achievements - imo specially because DD2 success managed to sweep the actual failure that was Exoprimal under the rug (it's my suspicion this is the real reason why they rushed DD2 to release to just before the end of the fiscal year)
I'm sure this will be a lot of fun once I upgrade my computer and the expansion comes outhaha there's definitely going to be an expansion... right?
>>3470188Does this game have missable quests/locations and such that you can lock yourself out of without realizing, like the first does?I refuse to replay games. Too many games to play, too little time in a single life. Need to know if I can justify getting the game or not
>>3649044yes but unfortunatelyit's a lot more forgiving than the first one in that regard>Too many games to play, too little time in a single lifethen play less games dumbass

Dragons Dogma?More like Dragons Sugma
If the dragon from Dragons Dogma has a human form like dragons from WoW do would she have a big GYATT?
>>3650371I think her GYATT would be flat but she would have very big boobs instead.
>>3650372that actually makes a lot of sense
