Dragon's Dogma II - "They’re masterworks, all – you can’t go wrong"

[Ninjerk]

CAN'T KILL ME IF I NEVER FUCK HAHAHAHA

Then who kids at yo' place?

Don't talk about his wife's son.

It looks like we may have gotten a look at the Dragon's Dogma 2 character creator by way of Street Fighter 6.



They mention using technology from other Capcom games when talking about it, they don't say the game, but it definitely looks like what you can do in Dragon's Dogma.

I hope Dragon's Dogma 2 doesn't have that "body type" crap, but I'm already expecting it will.

What's body type crap?

I'm assuming he's referring to the recent trend of replacing "Gender" or "Sex" with "Body Type" or some other generic, tranny-friendly name.

Right wingers seethe over male/female being "body type A/B" even though I remember it being used in wrestling games like twenty plus years ago. Who gives a shit.

 

[Pink Eye]

Hmm. As long as I can create a sexy waifu.

You must have played some weird wrestling games. I booted up the only one I had handy with a female character creator, WWE Day of Reckoning 2, and it's Male 1-6 and Female 1-6, with each 1-6 variant being ethnicity (white, black, hispanic, asian etc.).

 

[Humanity has risen!]

I don't understand why people are so hyped. Dragon's Dogma was a good game with good systems and a decent open world, but it was as bland, boring and generic as can be.

It's like getting excited at eating a can of corned beef.

Seethe? It's just a general disapproval of weirdos trying to alter our basic language, human nature, and reality.

The gaming landscape is so utterly desolate that even a good game is newsworthy.

Yeah, so? The sequel could be a great game with great systems and a great less-open world; a bland boring masterpiece with none of the usual edgy hipster "character" of new western games.

For me, it was bland in a good way. I love standard fantasy stuff, especially when there are no gay elves or dwarves. At least until the end where you have to kill God like in every fucking JRPG. Then it was bland in a bad way. I really just wanted to kill an evil dragon, not have to kill myself because of some retarded cosmic cycle bullshit.

If you remember anything about the story beyond the part where you break into a castle in the middle of the night to abduct a child bride then you played the game wrong

a good game with good systems and a decent open world,

as bland, boring and generic as can be.

Pick one.

Dragon's Dogma is a combat-focused game with a uniquely great combat system. Although action-based, combat in Dragon's Dogma is nonetheless RPG-like in that it has less emphasis on the player's skills versus character stats/abilities and in that it features a party of 4 characters providing synergy. Combat is satisfyingly tactile in a manner that's rare even among action games; you can be knocked down or held by enemies but also grip smaller enemies in turn, be borne aloft by harpy-like creatures, set enemies on fire, etc. Monster design enhances combat and particularly excels with the larger creatures (cyclopes, ogres, griffins, hydras, chimeras, and more), where teamwork is invaluable in defeating them (and it's always fun to crawl up the large monsters, if you aren't playing a mage/sorcerer).

The game also features decent dungeon-crawling, the best character creator (in terms of appearance) ever devised, good itemisation, fairly good character customization that ties in well to the combat through the mix of vocation and skills selected, and some memorable quests.

sequel could be a great game

Nonsense. The game is great. Ignore dumb posts.

 

[gaussgunner]

Maybe HHR thinks it's bland because he has no appreciation of Greek mythology. It's one of the main roots of western culture and this Japanese developer brought it to life so vividly, particularly the giant monsters. I hope they add more genuinely new and interesting monsters, not just palette swaps like BBI.

 

[anvi]

Dragons Dogma is a terrible game but it has potential, if they make a sequel with double the budget and effort.

 

[Reinhardt]

Dragons Dogma is a terrible game

nigger, you liked jade empire

 

[Fargus]

I liked the dogma a lot, but i hope it wont be anything like Bitter Bitch Island which was just more souls cringe. Had to go there for some gear though.

Also if DD2 will deny me this then fuck this game.

How was it generic?

We don't have enough modern generic RPG games anyway.

Medieval/Renaissance French/German/English influenced settings are considered generic these days.

Dragon's Dogma is the single greatest 7.5 out of 10 game I've ever played.
