Yea, you're right but get ready to face the same enemies with different textures over and over again. No boss/miniboss variety. Fucking tutorial boss shows up like 6 times. Kill a million cyclopses...
Only a couple of late game weapons to choose from.

It's average imo.

It's alright


Got bored at 40 hours though. I have like 200 hours in Skyrim (which only sucked compared to other TES games, compared to DD I found more enjoyment even 100 hours in, probably because the world itself was more interesting to me).
>>
>>339730502
Because all the other open world rpg have so much more different enemies. With way better enemy behavior and much more attacks.

>>339730502

I'd rather they just tone down on the enemy encounters overall instead putting me up against wolves OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

It still blows my mind that Dark Souls 1 with its shitty port job managed to sell over 1 million on steam and this great port of an underrated game couldn't even scrape together a fourth of that.

Just because it got pachinko shit doesn't mean DMC5 couldn't happen.

Don't hold your breath for E3 though, it's basically confirmed to be Resident Evil 7 and Dead Rising 4.
>>
>>339728801
Skyrim could have gotten away with it's archaic combat system if it had a good rpg system behind it but it was only 'mash sword to face' the game. Even Dragon's Dogma had better rpg elements than it, and Dragon's Dogma actually had fun combat.

>>339730502
Please never use the word entitlement, it's a meme word perpetuated by game developers and shills to ward off valid criticism and I refuse to believe that Capcom cares enough about this game to bother defending it.
>>
>>339731330
I'd settle for a remake/reboot that actually has everything they had planned for the game. We were going to leave Gransys and visit other kingdoms.

I've never managed to get past the first set of the Duke's quests in Dragon's Dogma. I enjoy the game, but it seems like something always grabs my attention away.

I found that DD was a pretty great podcast game.

It has some great fundamentals, but it can get a bit same'y and MMO'ish.

Fucking horrible game.

Combat is like playing New Vegas on very hard while barefisted - everything is a damage sponge and it's boring as shit.
>>
>>339728801
Try playing for more than 10 minutes, that's when the game becomes awful
>>
This game has the most amazing combat I've seen in any game.
I really like the story as well.
Definitely one of my most favourite games of all times.
>>
Is there any story worth paying attention to? These long, adventure RPG's can be hard to keep playing if there's nothing interesting going on.
>>
I agree with everything in the OP but not the comparison. They're just very different games. You play DDDA for a very satisfying combat experience and a superb first time world exploration, at which point it becomes boring. Then you play Skyrim for more roleplaying possibilities and mods.
>>
>>339736072
the story is terrible
>>
What went wrong?
>>
>>339736117
The story is great.
>>
>>339735886
Wrong, it's about finding weak spots. If you don't, then the enemies appear to be bullet sponges.
>>
>>339735886
Maybe you shouldn't play unarmed?
>>
>>339736196
The story is mediocre.
>>
>>339736072
Yes, unfortunately most of the story is at the end, but you can get a of little details by talkign to people.

The whole twist at the end is amazing.
>>
>>339736021
>This game has the most amazing combat I've seen in any game.

If you think this game has amazing combat your mind would be blown by games like Ninja Gaiden and Devil May Cry.
>>
>>339736314
I played both. Ninja Gaiden is pretty good, DMC I didn't like.
>>
>>339735886
Let me guess. You turned left into bandit territory?
>>
>>339736314
They're very different games with a similar focus on combat. If you happen to dislike the story in gaiden or dmc, you're stuck with it. In DDDA you can at least explore to your heart's content.
>>
So now that the PC has a release, what's the best version?

The whole pawn mechanics is one of the most unique features of the game. Though I don't know how many people still play, maybe you have to contact /ddg/.

I hate you so much you pos. That's why we can't have nice things. There is so much innovation and thought in this game it's oozing freshness.

Man, I honestly believe that in a decade or so, every single game will have shallow Arkham-style combat. Think about it, we've already seen it in Ryse, Shadow of Mordor, Mad Max, etc. I genuinely believe that just like the movie Idiocracy, every single video game will have combat dumbed down to a ridiculous degree.

It just saddens me so much. Dragon Dogma has combat miles ahead of Witcher, Arkham, Asscreed, etc. And yet we probably won't ever see a sequel, but we sure as fuck know they'll be another ten Arkham-style games.

Not him but I definitely agree with his sentiment. If you say "unrealistic expectations" instead of "entitlement" people would be much more receptive to you (because you did make a good point, I agree with you for the most part.) It's not your fault though, SJW gaming outlets have bastardized the word "entitlement" as a catch-all any time they need to silence critics.

I've played this game 100% as a Warrior, an MK, and an MA. I was thinking of doing a playthrough as a mage primary that only supports my pawns to see if they can actually beat the game without me being on the offensive. Think that is doable/fun?

Just started playing recently. I saved some people from an hydra and helped some people take it to some duke. Then I was given the chance to choose a quest and picked one that was bugged (I think it was because there was nothing at the place the mark told me to go) and another one that takes me away to somewhere else.
Honestly, at first glance I loved. I did some side quests but this main quest thing is pretty boring, and I ran out of not bugged side quests (I got one to tell some people to fuck off from the village but there is a boy on top of a rooftop and I can't speak to him). I also dislike how it sucks to use the map and see my quests, it just takes too much time (and it's awful to press page up/insert all the time).

I don't know. I think it has potential but all of this plus going around this bland map doing errands is not quite fun.

Tons of great armors for the plate and archer types. Mage types get ok armor if you're into looking like Gandalf I guess but the aesthetics on red and yellow vocations are spot on.

That's the game's main problem. The quests are fucking boring and the only really well-designed dungeons are endgame. I honestly never found the combat that enjoyable at all, even as a warrior. It felt like a button masher and I never did nearly as much damage as I wanted to do, even when I targeted weak spots.

Also, I loved the fact that rolling through water actually extinguished the lamp. In other games like Dark Souls you roll through water as much as you want without your torch going out.

Also, did you know you can throw bottles of water at dogs to make them shake off and thus be stunned? And that your pawn can heal off of eating rotting meat because pawns cannot get ill like humans? So many neat interactions in the game.

I'm pretty sure rolling through water extinguish your torch, at least in DS2

DS1 didn't have torches and BB and DS3 had it as an equippable item instead of a consumable so there was no sense in having it go out.

not to mention that you are vulnerable during the counter animation so it's worthless most of the time anyway. masterful kill does immense damage while also making you completely invincible and does not need any good timing whatsoever.

You would be missing the whole pawn thing, which is pretty awesome not only because how you train your pawn but also you miss on items and sharing information and anecdotes about stuff.

Way better than switcher 3, anything is really. The combat in DD consists of 2 combos and 2 special moves. You can't have more than like 2 special moves at a time. Its a joke.

Because you probably weren't playing these games back then. DMC1 was a huge fucking hit with everything, it modernized the genre that other devs built upon after.
