Monk class for the sequel confirmed?

Fighting monsters with steel and magick is cool.
Fighting them with fists is weebish decline.

you can't realistically fight a 15 meters lizard with a sword. doesn't change anything if they add monk/unarmed class

Watch me.

You sever their tails, that cuts them down by at least 10 meters.
Also unarmed is fine, when I get overlevelled in the Gransys area I go full Yakuza on the bandits.

They could keep all the same classes and it would be fine, maybe add a couple new skills/spells to each class and it would be fine. I can't recall if the L2 R2 buttons did anything on controller, but figuring out a way to have access to more abilities would be nice. They need to focus on world building and monster diversity/uniqueness first of all, then questing second of all. Not a new monk class that doesn't fit a medieval, sword and sorcery setting.

I want to use a shield / melee combo. Shield to block and bash and fist to punch and rip. Kicks too.

So we don´t get a cool monk because balance in SP. Just reduce his money drops!

A Ryu type character with greatly animated punch combos, moves like the Shoryuken to knock down aerial enemies and destroy dragon hearts, a Hadouken as ranged attack and hurricane kick to close gap and stomping enemies into walls for increased damage and juggles will be SICK.

PD: and parries of course.

This doesn't really make sense though. They would have to add gauntlets or something to be equipped with the way the stat system worked. Since you gained most of your attack power through weapons and levels ups added flat stats each level. Money also wasn't a big deal in the game either, you spent most of the game locked out of weapons until you hit certain points in the main quest. With some of those DLC items they added you started out with plenty of gold as well. Would have made more sense to say they just simply couldn't get to it because the other classes were more important. Plus the whole class theme of a balance between 1 or 2 elements within the circle/wheel.

 

[Late Bloomer]

Come on now. Monk would be awesome.

I respectfully disagree.

2X Bloody Knuckles = 4X damage

Yeah, I'd rather they made it more of an RPG with no vocation switching, only 3 classes, no weapon restrictions, skills for each weapon type, various synergies and tradeoffs.

And you should be able to customize all your pawns, and play as them...

Posting oblivion 2 in DD thread should be bannable.

Would you rather we post the original?

It's not my fault that DD is missing features that even Todd Howard didn't streamline out of his games.

 

[SumDrunkGuy]

I'm considering buying this on switch. It's only 9 bucks. I already own it on ps4 but... can you ever truly own too many copies of Dragon's Dogma?

This isn't the trigger thread. GTFO with that shit.

 

[SumDrunkGuy]

Does anyone know if the Switch version has the framerate issues that DD had on ps3 and xbox 360 or is it closer to the last gen consoles? I remember the framerate was atrocious on ps3.

I haven't finished it on Switch but my experience with it is that if you load it into the internal storage, it runs fine. If you put it on an SD card, it hitches a bit sometimes when you're looking around in the open world.

It is $5 currently on gog. Just as well nab it I guess.

IIRC. on the Gog servers, the pawn renting online service was not functioning correctly. I haven't checked in quite some time, but I seriously doubt that they fix it. Just a heads-up.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

I guess you get only the pre-select game mooks esp if offline (which I would be selecting due to shit net).

 

[mediocrepoet]

Imo the online services of Dragon's Dogma are a mixed bag. On the one hand, other people's pawns will populate your rift and the world which is kind of cool. On the other hand, you end up with a lot of loli-things, and people in the princess dress, etc.

The other thing borked online will do is lock you out of the community Ur-Dragon, but that's not that big of a deal since you can fight it offline if you want to experience it anyway and if you find it to be too much of a pain in the ass to bother to kill on your own, you're not missing out since BBI gear is better. I think some people even prefer the offline Ur-Dragon just because of the idiosyncrasies of the online fight (potentially fighting the same one over days, having to look back to see if it finally died to get loot, etc.).

Super late on this but good news if it gets implemented.

 

[Reinhardt]

One thing I hate about this game is the need to beg people online for rift crystals. I'd be very much obliged if a kind soul could rent my pawn on Steam, he is a Sorcerer level 56 named Menelkir, Arisen named Daedolon. I think that's all the information I need to give?
