What's the /v/erdict?
>>339031918
Somewhat unique, pretty good.
>>339031918
shit game
A good game.
Not the ultimate game to end all games /v/ claimed it to be, but still good.
It's clearly unfinished.
>Offline Grindfest
>BBI being a total fucking chore
>nothing to do once goldrare'd with max gear other than make new characters
>>339031918
Cons
>The dodge roll being a class-specific move was a mistake. Other classes don't have an evasive maneuver other than jumping, which looks dumb
>The Warrior having only three skills instead of six like every other class.
>The lack of a monk class
>The fact that the game only has two major settlements.
Other than that it's pretty damn good, I love it and it would be nice to get a sequel that builds up on it
>>339031918
Very good, lacks polish, lacks content
Should play through at least once. Dark Arisen part is very well put together except RNG gear
>>339031918
Some parts annoying and clearly half-baked, some parts pure ecstasy in a way that few games ever reach, like seriously all-time greatest gaming moments-tier.
Overall, a rough diamond, 8 for me. The DLC ups it to 8.5, best game content outside of story boss battles.
Obligatory post about what could have been.
i bought it at release and spontaneously stopped playing after 15 hours.
should i get back to it?
Flawed masterpiece.
I think with a few mods the game would be perfect.
Needs a NG++ mode since there's not much to do once you hit max level other than effortlessly destroy BBI.
>>339031918
Some of the best boss fight in vidya
Basically Shadow of the Colossus meets Monster Hunter
Had ambition way beyond the team's means though so outside the boss fights most things didn't live up to the hype
Also a great game because PC casuals hate it
>>339033091
no
if you dropped it there was a reason.
it's a good game but it is definitely not for everybody.
I learned that wolves hunt in packs.
Wish it focused more on the action instead of the RPG. It's real frustrating to find enemies that are pretty much impossible to damage or stagger because they're too high level, even if they're just reskinned versions of old enemies. Likewise, once you get strong, everything becomes way too much of a joke.
Also you should be able to redistribute the DP you spend on abilities. Really, a lot of things with how classes worked bugged me, because you would need to grind the fuck out of a class to unlock the more interesting things for it, and then would have to spend that universal DP to learn abilities that would make it anything other than mashing. Nevermind that your classes determine the stats you get from level up too, which was also kinda lame.
So I'm booting it up for the first time and I usually play a knight-type character in RPGs.
How viable is that in this?
>>339035649
Very. All classes are quite viable. Many people favor the fighter because muh perfect block
>>339035649
Pretty good actually, you've got your sword and board that's well balanced and strangely enough more viable than the Warrior which is basically Guts mode. I think Mystic Knight suits what you want since it's the most knight-like class. It's an advanced class though so you'll have to get to the main settlement to get it.

>No indication of how wolves hunt
>enemy weaknesses aren't mentioned
>Can't tell where all roads lead to
>have no idea about the quality of bought weapons and armour
shit game
One of the best action/rpgs I've ever played. It's charming in an unique way.
Although the Duke should really commission some new roads, for fuck's sake.

THEY'RE MASTERWORKS ALL
Shit I love DD with the force of thousand wolves
Capcom once again proves that the only thing that keeps them alive is combat mechanic (just like Lost Planet 2), everything else is just too mediocre.
>>339036412
There was this moment right afterGran Sorengets destroyed. The fucking hole stopped like half a meter from his shop and he doesn't care. He doesn't even acknowledge it. All he cares is that they are MASTERWORKS all.
It was so jarring, so Dragon's Dogma I just burst into laughter, that was the culmination. Please wind, push me further.
>>339031918
I could pick holes in it all day, but still enjoyed it.
>>339032963
It's not dark souls. Fighters and Mystick Knights have a shield, warriors have their health bar and super armor attacks, and magic classes should run the fuck away.
Invincible rolls seriously make the combat pretty dull.
>>339038645
I don't even want i-frames, just a quick cancel that doesn't involve you jumping around
>>339032963
>>The lack of a monk classI agree, unarmed combat is too basic and barely viable, and you can't use skills.
>>339031918
decent game
has a lot of features but many of them feel only half finished
Does this game run 60fps at PS3?
>>339031918
I will never forgive myself for buying this shit.
Fucking last time I listen to /v/
>>339031918
Decent game that was shit on by reviews because "it's not dark souls" comparisons just because it was slightly harder than most RPGs, so it got lumped into Le Dark Souls clone xD
>>339032963
Having access to full moon slash, sheltered assault, dragons maw, divine defense and perfect block makes fighter much better at evading damage than the dodge roll classes.
>>339039450
Maybe 15 at good parts.
No reason to get the PS3 version when PC exists now.
>>339039450
PS3 can't run anything at 60fps.
>>339039851
Not everyone has a monster gaming computer, anon.
>>339040071
Well they should.
>>339040071
DD is a pretty good port, so it runs even on a toaster. I'm running it on my Athlon X2 2,9 GHz, 250 GTX and 8 gb ram without a problem, it just hitches to 58 fps sometimes.
>>339040071
It's actually pretty well optimised in my experience. I played it on a $1000 generic laptop and never went below 30fps except for when there were heaps of effects on screen.
>>339033070
>>339040006
Xillia 2 says otherwise.
>>339041384
To be fair, it's not really far off the main product. All we're missing is the endless tower really, to potray that there are unlimited worlds of the same place.
>>339041384
it hurts bros
Very fun game overall, though I think the combat system needs some improvements.
DD2 at Sony E3 lads,
>>339041854
Was really hoping for a sequel that not only expands the combat but gives life to the world, I would be happy with just the MMO ported over
It feels like an Early Access beta to the greatest game ever.
>>339031918
heeeeey its pretty good
>>339031918
it's gr8
sure it has some issues, but it's still a very good game
>>339031918
Repetitive, trying to do too much at once. Great music and nice atmosphere at night time, shitty balance of difficulty on hard mode.
It's a good game but has downfalls in terms of gameplay in some areas.
