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

[Abu Antar]

I'm waiting for a price drop for both this and Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth. I'm not paying 700SEK with their shitty price, and pre-order shenanigans. Still looking forward to playing them (but at a cheaper price).

 

[Shrimp]

Have they said anything about the amount of vocations that will be in the game?

 

[Assisted Living Godzilla]

They haven’t said anything about the total number of vocations yet. For something that’s coming out in just a few months they haven’t exactly said much about the game really.

Maybe it’s just because they have different producers, but they were doing a much better job of getting information out on Devil May Cry 5.

65€, that's new. Funny a couple of years ago every AAA game either cost 50 or 60 sometimes even 70 € now you see every price possible from 60-80 €.

If you're interested in giving them your feedback, here's a survey you can fill up:

Only if it's an extremely poorly done port. Recommended specs are pretty hefty: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 / AMD Radeon RX 6700 (2160i/30fps and framerates may drop in intensive scenes...) for a game that doesn't look that much better than the PS3 Dragon's Dogma.

They may be protecting themselves by lowering expectations; such as the comparatively heftier min specs announced for MH:Rise than necessary, the lower specs could run it much higher quality/fps than suggested if I remember right. But it may just be that much more expansive, time will tell..

Yeah, impossible to say until release, but it's also possible that they based the min specs on the current gen consoles like a PS5. I also wonder if despite the graphics not looking ultra amazing or anything, whether there are demanding bits in an open world with a variety of AI actors (NPCs, monsters, etc.) and draw distance.

Either way, I'm not concerned by the specs, but it does make sense that some people would, especially if your PC is a Wizardry box or something.

We are far from the Wizardry Box and well above the average rig that Steam users still use. Minimum specs are for a royal 1080p/30fps (framerate might drop in graphics-intensive scenes again). NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti or AMD Radeon RX 6800 is required to support ray tracing. Now, let's hope you can at least get 60 fps without ray tracing, all for something that doesn't look better than Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk, both running well over 100+ fps with such hardware.

 

[Multidirectional]

Yeah it must be big maps + foliage eating up GPU resources because I don't see any higher visual fidelity in these videos than Devil May Cry V, which I can run at stable 60 FPS on RTX 3060 maxed out at 1944p (2.25x DLDSR@1080p + 120% in game rendering resolution slider). That was the reason I hoped I was at least good for 1080p/60FPS on DD2. Oh well..

Mystic spearhand looks sick

I knew I recognized this from somewhere. It looks exactly like one of Vergils moves from the DMC series.

Yep, down to the color being extremly similar.

 

[HoboForEternity]

A man can hope right? Right?

But shield sage should be paladin or somethint because if there are MK, it is already a shield and parry heavy vocation.

Edit: apparently shield sage is ddon vocation and i apologize for my ignorance

 

[Assisted Living Godzilla]

The Trickster Vocation has summons it seems. So it might also be the summoning class.

They really should be doing deep dive videos on the vocations as opposed to what they’re doing, these around like second looks, especially since it seems like the game is far enough out where they could maybe do one every other week. In the little look at the Trickster class they call it a support class, but the smoke dragon summon the Trickster did seemed like an offensive attack.

I'd expect to see that sort of stuff closer to release, like to build hype say around late January and into February. Right now I'd be wanting to drum up sales for Xmas with products that are out atm.

Vergil's doppleganger ability yeah
But the combat move itself is more like Dante's "revolver" with cerebrus nunchuck form:

And the moveset before that seems like that of a quarter staff, just like the cerbrus quarterstaff form:

I hope so
Because only 9 vocations would be quite the downgrade for supposedly the perfect sequel

Also, I refuse to believe V was a one-off idea just for DMC5 and not the playtesting of a DD vocation idea Itsuno was unsure of

 

[mediocrepoet]

I don't recall where (or if it was official, but I thought so) - I thought they did say a bit about vocation types and how instead of 3 types to cross, there are now 4.

Basically the warrior and mage types like DD, but with strider split into archer and melee types, so you have basically archer and dagger wielder rogue subtypes.

 

[Igge]

Finally a fantasy RPG with decent combat system and without gay shit - something the West forgot how to make since the release of the Dark Messiah

P.S.: aye there was the Witcher 3, well since 2015 then, either way long time ago.

DMoMM sucks donkey balls.

I hope those Khajiit have wares and I get to see Madeleine again
