I have the balls to admit this game is better than Dark Souls. Do you?
I have the balls to admit they're too different from each other and shouldn't be compared.
Dragon's dogma didn't seem like it had a clear design direction towards what it wanted to do.
I surely enjoyed it more.
Souls games minus bloodborne have cooler settings but DD wins in just about every other aspect, even considering the world in DD isn't that big. If they had been able to make DD a full sized game with all the content they planned then there wouldn't be many games out there that could stand up to it.
If it just had multiplayer it would be perfect.
I have the balls to admit that both games do some things excellently, while most of their content sucks absolute horse cock.

This is the only correct answer.
Combat is far different, much different paced.
>>329567878
Both are good games, for some similar reasons, and different reasons.
>>329567878
>better than Dark Souls
Considering how badly programmed and shoddily designed Dark Souls is, that's not an achievement.
>>329567878
I don't how they can be compared outside of their setting.
>>329567995
ThisBut Dragons Dogma was a bad game so yes even though they shouldn't be compared, I think DkS is the overall better game.
>>329568702
This
>>329567878
I like them both a lot, and they're pretty different, but I still had more fun with Dark Souls and think it's better
>>329567878
both are pretty shit compared to this.
>Dark Souls is marketed as the most hardcore thing since Dwarf Fortress
>has retarded AI
>everything falls to the same basic strategy (circlestrafe)
>Dragon's Dogma marketing mentions nothing about difficulty
>it's harder than Dark Souls
>has AI that actually works
I would like Fromdrones to explain this shit, because it just doesn't add up in my head.
>>329567878
Dark Souls series aside, I have no idea why DD is so praised. It feels and looks like some indie game made by people with many great ideas but no funds to handle them properly. It was worth its price but certainly doesn't deserve praise it gets.
>>329567878
It's not comparable to Dark Souls in any way. However, the climbing mechanic incredible, and I would love to see it in Souls like games.
Implying that DS is good
>>329569020
>>has AI that actually works
>>329569040
It takes the classic "sword and board adventuring" concept, makes a completely generic fantasy world, populates it with classic, mythology-inspired creatures, and pulls it off decently. People love their classic RPG experiences.
Compare that to Dark Souls, which attempted a similar thing, but failed in execution.
>>329569192
Pawn AI gets a free pass because it makes me laugh.
No, but its good
>>329569020
>has AI that actually works
Stop lying to yourself or try harder next time.
There's no loli pawns that would die for you in DS
Also you can carry her
Checkmate soulsfags
>>329567878
They are both good in their own right as they are two completely different games.
>>329569359
I can recall only one instance in DD where the AI consistently fails pathfinding and falls to its death down a cliff (the mountain road to the feminist fortress). And even that is mostly due to retarded enemy placement (huge cyclops on a narrow path).
On the other hand, Dark Souls enemies consistently fall down cliffs to their deaths all over the game. Even winged, flying enemies, which just boggles my mind. And let's not even touch on them getting stuck in doorways and letting themselves be circled and backstabbed like a bunch of retards.
>>329567878
I have the balls to admit that I just wanted this game because it was a PS3 exclusive.
It's total shit
>>329567878
It would have been if only it wasn't gutted. More than half of the stories/characters end abruptly with no resolutions. You know you fucked up when DaS compared to you seems coherent and content complete.
The DLC should have been about finishing the game and not some extra dungeon.
>>329569192
They were trying to protect you in case of mimics. Truly brilliant.
>>329569661
the bait has been set.
>>329567878
It really isn't. The lore is boring and uninspired, the combat with some classes is downright awful and visually it looks like a PS2 game.
>>329567878
It's different, I like both. Dark Souls has a smaller scale and more focused level design.
They have similar aesthetics but don't play anything alike.
Had much morefunwith DD.
>>329570138
>Had much morefunwith DD.
As any casual would. Dark Souls isn't for people like you to begin with.
>>329569573
I don't care about trash mobs, I'm talking about large enemies and your pawns. In Dark Souls coop is broken because bosses have no idea how to handle more than one player, but DD is meant to play with party and it suffers from the same issue. I won't even comment pawn AI or their inclinations and vocations. Probably the worst team management system I've ever seen in any video game.
I think the important question is:
what is the western Dark Souls?
was it made?
>>329570295
>I don't care about trash mobs
I do, seeing as Dark Souls puts such a huge focus on it.
>>329570313
Lords of Fallen, and in true western fashion it was more polished, better programmed, better animated, and looked prettier.
And in true western fashion, it didn't feel like it had any passion behind it.
I have to balls to admit I refunded this overhyped piece of shit after 2 hours.
>>329567878
Nigga Dragon's Dogma is like the anti-Dark Souls in many design choices
>>329567878
I don't think they can be compared. They're too different.
However, I do think that Dragon's Dogma's character creator is infinitely better than any Souls CC.
>>329567878
It is, but they're very different genres. That being said I too tend to find it more fun than DS1 and 2.
Maybe 3 will change my mind.
well its not hard to be bettter than dark souls. you just need to have decent gameplay
>>329568998
Restarted this just the other day, rarely comes up on /v/.
Went for a wander as soon as I hit the map and ended up about level 15-16 before going to the first town. Distributed everything immediately forgetting that Joseph is more of a support caster than warrior, so I've probably fucked his skills already.
>>329567878
Considering Dark Souls isn't even the best souls game, yeah.
>>329569661
Fucking saved, that's beautiful.

>>329571029
it's a great game, I recall remeber disliking the 2nd one but I can't really remeber why, did you ever play number 2?
>>329567878
it is desu senpai
alot of stuff is better than dark souls
fuck, its even the worst in the series
It was alright, but no, it wasn't.

"I don't have any friends to go on adventures with"
>>329571608
Just the demo, been years though. Remember combat playing closer to an action game and the MC being a princess that could turn into godzilla. Guessing the transformation took the place of summons so there were probably more forms not featured. Think it ended with her getting an airship back so it's probably got a bigger map than Summoner 1 if it's a game mechanic.
Just didn't really feel like the original from what I remember.
>>329571994
Not every damn game needs multiplayer holy fuck, people need to get out of this fucking mindset. It fucking ruins games. Just like every multiplayer focused doesn't need a shitty tacked on singleplayer either.
