I'm a little surprised the Warrior class didn't have throwing knives or a crossbow given the class is basically the Guts class, and he's got both of those.
They should give Warrior (Guts) class a "grasses" to put on as well. (Sorry, bad Berserk intro music joke*)
RIP Kentaro Miura by the way. If he wouldn't waste fucking 9 years on that boat arc, we may have seen a proper ending to Berserk before he died.

All of you who emoji me and reee at my comments without being able to make any argument for or against anything, are worthless fucking pieces of shit. And you know it too, that's why you are butthurt at me. It's part butthurt, part jealousy. You sad fucks.

Relax, don't get mad, or you'll just get more of it if people think they will get a reaction out of you.

All I really want or hope for in-terms of new classes is the addition of a new Green Category representing faith-based magic classes, so you don't have to really on a mage for combat healing all of the time. DD1 already makes mention of "The Faith" and a Grand Cathedral in the mainland outside of Gransys.

Cleric > Priest
Green/Red = Paladin
Green/Yellow = Monk
Green/Blue = Sage

Or some other somesuch.

I'm pretty sure the Mystic Knight is Dragon's Dogma's take on a Cleric and Paladin. In Dragon's Dogma Online the Vocation gets rebranded as Shield Sage, and it gets a new "magic wand" Rod weapon that's a mace. Wouldn't be too surprised if that carried into this.

There's also a Priest Vocation in Online, although it's a more specialized version of the Mage. Some Vocations ended up getting more specialized in Online since it's a multiplayer game. It also added three new Vocations with their own new weapons. The Alchemist, which is a melee class with Magick Gauntlets; this class has a version of Terry Bogard's Power Geyser and Geese's Raging Storm. There's a Spirit Lancer with a new Lance weapon. And High Scepter with a new type of sword weapon; this class has some moves similar to Vergil in Devil May Cry.

I hope we get more Red Earth characters.

It'd be interesting if this one went the Red Earth direction. If Online is any indication this series is going the Final Fantasy route of being a different world with similar things (like monsters) across them all; that'd fit with the idea of the first game too, where everyone's game is meant to be a different reality. But the thing about Red Earth is it's one of those fantasy worlds that's actually a post-apocalyptic sci-fi fantasy world.

In the American release they changed the intro saying Red Earth took place after a post-apocalypse. Although in Tessa/Tabasa's ending you've still got the lab full of computers, and in her bad ending she says something about the brain thing on the final boss being some kind of alien.

The game looks amazing. Really surprised. Glad they brought back grigori and his voice actor. Glad they're implementing the beast races they had originally planned for the original. Glad they're keeping the grounded aesthetic to the monsters and pulling them straight from mythology. And I am so glad they're keeping the grandiose magic & expanding it with utility/exploration magic as well.

Good work to Itsuno & the lads.

Attention: there's some psy-op flying around about there being DD2 but that's all it is. There's no DD2 in the works and any material you see is fake. Don't hope.
