jap games usually have shit gameplay like ff series or memesouls that's why people assume the worst
>>321484750
Because Dark Souls is the only difficult game or action RPG they have ever seen.
Because DaS is popular and DD is a 3rd person action game.
>>321485094
Dark Souls is pretty good, especially compared to the current climate of hand-holding games that view player death as a failure on their part.
is this game like dark souls?
>>321485350
it's boring and empty, even skyrim is better

>>321485350
DS is ust tryhard.
For example not putting a checkpoint before bosses does not make the game harder. It also doesn't make the boss harder to beat. It just wastes the player's time for no reason, having to run through the map again.
The series has a lot of "wrong kind of difficulty", as in half of the difficulty is more like annoyance and time wasting.

Dragon's Dogma is the Dark Souls of action rpgs.
>>321485420
It's just like a Castlevania game, it's just a push to the next boss - and in Dark Souls 1 most bosses, at least during your first playthrough, are either fun or in some way novel. If your treat it as a sandbox western RPG you plan on playing for every bit of dialogue and every perk relevant to your RP idea, that would be like attacking every wall in Castlevania to find the hidden chicken dinners.
Skyrim isn't the same thing. Dark Souls isn't without flaws, but it does offer a few things that most other games on the market do not. Namely, a good challenge and a myriad of ways to approach that challenge in varying gameplay and tinkering with character builds. While plenty of games have one or the other, only a few have both. And a lot of the games that have both are relatively easy games that let you dial up enemy health and damage but still don't offer an interesting AI to bring the experience together.
>>321484750
Yeah, its more of a bad Skyrim clone.
Next Gen remaster when? Not that I need it, I just want to buy as many versions of it as possible
NO JAPANESE AUDIO
NO BUY
>>321485457
if you are good enough, yes.
sorcerers with high tier fire magic help alot
or if you are an archer, oil jars and explosive arrows will make short work of it
>>321486028
>that bottom left outfit
goddamn, son, why didn't that make it into the game?
Why is this game shilled to fuck around here? It was good, it just wasn't THAT good.

Then it'd be too obvious that she's not just a simple merchant.
I hope you guys didn't waifu her.
Can't wait
>>321484750
What is the open world like though? A bunch of big connected areas or just a huge world?
>>321486816
/v/ still likes an underdog.
>>321484750
>>"so it's like souls game?"
That's not an unfair comparison - both are open world, third-person action JRPGs set in a medieval environment.
Playing one of the archer classes with a dodge roll does make it feel like a more technically and mechanically sound Dark Souls, really.
>>321486883
Huge world with some cool (although small) dungeons littered around them. Most of them are Quest related.
Spawn points are static, the only way they change is during the night and after a certain plot point.
>>321486935
>both are open world
Saying that DaS is as Open World as DD is disingenuous. DaS is a bunch of well design areas connected through hallways, that isn't the same as DD.
DD's open world fits more like Red Dead Redemption.
>>321486935
I hope people mod in harder difficulties and unlocking that dodge roll for all classes.
Always thought Mages desperately needed it more then Archers did.
>>321486935
>Dark Souls
>Open World
Yeah, no. You don't know what open world means.
>>321485737
Speaking at least for the first game, this mostly only rings true for a couple bossesbed of chaos and four kingsthat got all the shit they deserve and maybe 2 or 3 sections of the gameAnor Londo and the skippable blight town. Typically, most bosses have a runup that's about 30-45 seconds, and most areas you're having trouble with you can just run by. A lot of the flack this game gets for artificial difficulty is people beating their heads against a wall instead of seeking alternatives.
It's not a flawless game, but I'd rather have a few artificially difficult sections mixed with actually tricky sections, than no real difficulty at all. No game that has little to no difficulty has a sense of achievement when you succeed.
>>321487120
It's open world in that you can go anywhere you want - it's a non-linear progression. Bait harder kid.
>>321487081
That's fair, they are both open world but obviously to way different degrees. I was just saying that for comparison's sake. Looking at DD from the outside, it has a lot of the same thing Dark Souls has from a back of the box standpoint.
>>321486834
didnt even know you could waifu here
>fight human boss that I forget the name of
>one shot him with an arrow to the head
Was it supposed to be this easy or was I just overpowered?
Dark Souls is a metroidvania.
>>321486883
Areas connected to the point where in some areas there is literally only one path to take to get there. It is open world though as it can get. "All roads lead to gran soren" is a favorite comment from the pawns and it is true. It is the 2nd non-settlement town you will reach and the 3rd area period that have a loading screen to enter/leave into and it may as well be the middle of the world.
For most players it where the game truly start and everything before is just plot/tutorial to get you going.
>>321484750
>where the fuck do these people get such stupid idea from?
I know right? It's better than Dark souls.
>>321484750
Thank you for reminding me I need to go back and play Dragon's Dogma
>>321484750
That's because they never played monster hunter.
DD is just an action RPG with modified monster hunter gameplay milking Berserk nostalgia.
It's nothing special.
We tried. We really tried hard on this one including the Berserk stuff. In fact, we had the Japanese audio checkbox ticked on the store page right before the pre-purchase went live but had to remove it at the last minute as things didn't pan out as we had hoped. We really can't get into specifics beyond that...sorry.
We understand some fans are disappointed and appreciate the feedback, and we're truly sorry for not being able to deliver on that front. But we do hope fans can still enjoy the game for what it is. It's still a great game if I may say so after having invested more than 300 hours myself. I personally look forward to exchanging pawns with the community once the game launches.
Content wise, the port team stuffed everything else they possibly can into the base game plus some extra features fans had asked for. That includes new Achievements for high level players (most are post game & BBI-related), customizable item hot keys, graphics and performance enhancements, and other nice-to-have nips and tucks that greatly improves the overall Dragon's Dogma experience.

>>321487402
Can we just mod in the Berserk stuff? Like is it on disk content that is just locked right or is it seriously a different version of the game floating around?
>>321487860
We don't know, the game hasn't released
There will be no mod tools whatsoever for the game, it entirely depends on how the game was made.
>>321487860
People have the time to extract the assets from the console versions.
Porting it would be easy because the MT framework is native to the PC.
Japanese VA is far more likely than Guts. It is under 100Mb packed, easily distributed, and just drag and drop to activate.
>>321487836
I mean, most monsters have a few different points to go for when you're climbing, and only some of the classes even rely on that strategy. As any ranged class or a Mystic Knight, most fights are pretty fun and varied as they go.
>>321488082
More than half the classes are "hybrids" which are just rehashed versions of other classes
I've never played any of the warrior classes before but I want to try.
Is shield and sword better than 2-handed?
Is a mage pawn pretty much necessary?
>>321488161
3 classes are hybrids, 3 are specialized classes, and the last 3 are the basic starting classes.
Does the remaster come out the same day on PS4 as PC?

>implying that Dark Souls fags aren't the reason why DD isn't hyped
>>321488305
2 hand (warriors) lose out on using 3 active skills for some retarded reason. If you can accept that then go for it.
Mages aren't require but that like saying Pokemon centers aren't required either if you buy enough potions. The extra dps is rarely worth the lost of a healer, even if you are pro as fuck your pawns will still get hurt.
>>321488305
>Is shield and sword better than 2-handed?
Fighter (Shield and Sword) is pretty standard, has 1 great skill and all the others are good.
Warrior (2 hander) Is a love-hate thing. You really need to try it for yourself to see if it rings your bell
Mystic Knight (Shield and Mace OR Sword) is pretty cool, more centered around magick attacks that pure physical ones. Most people agree this is one of the best classes in the game.
>>321488506
there is no such thing
>>321484750
Maybe they've only played Dark Souls and haven't played Dragon's Dogma.
>>321488161
Did you play the game? Assassin is true for your statement, but Mystic Knight and Magic Archer are not even close to rehashes, they're the most unique classes in the game.
>>321487710

Healing springs are your best friends.
I kept this saved in case I want a balanced character. Posting it for anyone who may want to save it as well.

>>321489251
>followed by 60 seconds of waiting for mana to regenerate before the next attack
I don't know how to play magic users in games and it bothers me because I like them conceptually.
How long is DD? How many hrs can I expect to put in it?
>>321489605
there's no mana in this game, there's "stamina", and it regens fairly quickly
it's rare when you run out of stamina in DD, unless you're playing in hard mode.
>>321489605
Dragon Dogma is one of the few games where you will really suffer if you don't use items. Note if you give your pawns items they will use them as well and may even use them on you.
Also moldy carrots are worth more than their fresh counterparts though you don't want them to rot. You can buy carrots in the first town and after a few days (may it be legit or by inn) you can sell them back for a profit.
>>321489238
As min/max as it sounds, if you're going to "build" a character, either go Fighter until level 10 then Assassin until 100, or go Mage until 10 then Sorcerer til 100. No stats except damage are really relevant.
>>321486935
I thought DD had some similarities with Dark Souls without necessarily having the same combat. Both are Japanese games depiction a western style medieval fantasy world. Both have emphasis on third person action gameplay and are reasonably difficult (I won't bother arguing which is more difficult). Both games also featured rather unusual always online features.
These are kind of vague comparisons, but I think the games are really similar in spirit despite the fact that they feel very different while playing.
>>321489762
if you only do main quests, which you totally can, you'd miss out on maybe 80% of the content, and finish it in 40hours, maybe less
if you do all sidequests, 100 hours easily, though most sidequest are literal "bring me 40 rabit tails" kinda bullshit.
In all honesty, sidequests are just an excuse for you play more of the game, and kill stuff, which is the best part of the game. If you like the combat, you'll replay this so many times it's not even funny.
>>321489762
main story is pretty short but real shit start after main story, it unlock giant dungeon in middle of the city. you could sink 20-30 hours in there. also bitterblack isle (DLC) is pretty crazy
>>321489238
>>321489929
Is it even level in this game?
I don't quite remember but I remember seeing the min/max guide and thinking it was pretty daunting.
I also didn't do too many sidequests but that's my fault.
>>321489762
Going full neckbeard can finish the vanilla story in a day. Reaching max level takes more time.
Max level is 200
Bitterblack Isle is more of a challenge and requires a lot of runs.
>>321490224

Thank you.
>>321488161
You're right. When you think about it, the whole game is just a rehash of Wizards & Warriors: Ironsword
>>321489929
You also get access to augments from different classes so although assasin's attack stat growth is really enticing, you'd be depriving yourself of some nice stuff. Unless of course you're planning on unlocking those things post level 100 when stat growth is gimped.
>>321487650

>>321490580
Ok.
>>321490580
you lie
>>321490505
Not the guy you're replying to, but you can easily level vocations without actually levelling up. It's based on how many things you kill rather than the exp you gain, so what I just do is kill a bunch of shitty goblins until I get the augments I want.
>>321487650
>Capcom
>Releasing their decent games over west
>>321490764
I had no idea this was the case. I've noticed vocation leveling being a bit out of sync with actual levels, but I that it was all based on experience. That's good to know, thanks.
>>321490580
most of the people buying it on PC already played it on console so I doubt they care about how shitty the combat it
>>321488627
>Dragon's Dogma isn't popular because of Dark Souls!
Please explain.
>>321490746
i don't lie. played it on ps3 and the combat was incredibly tedious and consisted mostly off just mashing literally one button. even climbing was a gimmick... where you just mash one button and spam curatives. the ONLY boss worth anything was the guy at the end of bbi. dragon's dogma is flashy, but that's it.
>>321491035
Yup. Didn't beat BBI before my xbox died so I'm glad I have a chance to play it again and content I've yet to clear.

Good thing my pawn was a ranger too and the other was a sorcerer and we could pick both off from the ledge. Fuck the other one to death.
>>321490580
here is your reply.
did you even watch any of the PC gameplay considering you've never even played the game?
>>321490320
>>321490385
If your character is small enough they can enter the holes that normally goblins are only allow in.
Your character weight effect their carrying cap but also how much stamina they have (bigger = more but lower regen, where smaller is vice versa) and other things such as if they can be picked up by harpies. Hell even how tall your character is can decide if your lantern goes out when you step into water.
In the first town right from the building you leave from after the dragon fight you can hop over a cliff to see a lighthouse-like area with a few chests. There is a shit ton of other hidden places like that in the world and even in the towns. Search around, exploring is encouraged.Wolves hunt in packs arisen.
>>321491078
>and the combat was incredibly tedious and consisted mostly off just mashing literally one button
That's your fault. You have a strong attack, a fast attack, and room for 3-6 abilities. If you played by hitting one button you're bad.
You might be able to get away with it against easier enemies, but it won't do you much good later on. Especially considering how you need to build you pawn as much as you need to build your main character.

I've only done it a few times, you still need to out at least once, better to do it for the griffin fight and lay down the port crystal and not have to make the trek ever again.

I also recall seeing a video on youtube where a guy carries a dead rabbit to a fountain of life and drops it in the water. It came back to life.
I can't find it, though.
>>321490308
No, then yes. Once you can beat the game, you have to muscle through some everfall stuff to wrangle a little gear, then a couple painful Ur-Dragon fights to get your stuff to a good enough spot that you can solo the fight in reasonable timewhich is especially easy as an assassin with some periapts from fornival and the augments that reward you being along and it being nighttime, then with Veteran's Periapts, you can get something like 450k experience per fight - and they go really fast.

I have the original game but I just can't settle on a character. Should I just go strider to start?
>>321485457
If you're an archer, buy griffin's bane from the black cat, get a pawn that only knows fire affinity, and blow that fucker out of the sky. Guaranteed victory the first time around.

Wrong quote, meant to quote>>321491078
>>321491504
How do you usually like to play? Knight, Thief, or mage?
>>321491295
i brought multiple characters up to 200. pretty sure i know what i'm doing against anything and the most effective way to deal with "hard" shit is spam literally one ability. on archers you spam your fold arrow ability with explosive arrows and spam curatives. on mages you just enchant your staff with whatever enemy is weak to what and do your lame ass semen shot staff charge.
>Especially considering how you need to build you pawn as much as you need to build your main character.
well, this is factually wrong. you can even get skills that give you boosts to being solo and are often times better than having a pawn with you
i didn't even use pawns in the game when it became evident they were just useless
>>321485457
Kill it on the spot by burning it and dish out damage as fast as you can. I actually preferred going to the tower because there were items there worth getting.

Some of the best steaks I've cooked at home were a little on the old side. Not rancid, just... old. Maybe frozen for a while, then thawed and left in the fridge for a day or two. They're really tender.
>>321486883
Its a big area, but the biggest problem is that its not dynamic at all, you will find the same enemies in the same spots everytime. The game lacks a good fast travel system so this will become apparent. The post game gives you more giant monsters to fight, but everything will mostly be in the same place but with a upgraded version of it.
However Dark Arisin fixed the fast travel part by giving more port crystals, so this won't be a problem if you are smart with them.
Overall the overworld isn't that important, you will learn where the big monsters lurk, place a port crystal in the most opportune area's, then just warp around killing all the bosses for grinding.
The gameplay is what really holds this game together.
>>321491598
Usually Thief, but there doesn't really seem to be a lot of thiefy stuff to do. Plus, I've seen some of the warrior/mage webms and they look really cool.
>>321491630
>i didn't even use pawns in the game when it became evident they were just useless
There was also a time when solo assassin was overpowered. That would certainly make pawns useless.
>>321491869
You can pickpocket in the game, actually. Pickpocket NPC's and pawns on the road. It doesn't feel thief-like though.
>>321492053
Never use that skill, is it like Saints Row where you simply bump into them and the money automatically get added to your funds?

>>321486883
it's a very small world that tricks you into thinking it's bigger than it actually is. it does this by making no fast travel available right away, adding areas that can only be accessed one way which often times means back tracking because you didn't take the designated path. on top of that when you look at your map it's a huge fucking lie. they intentionally made it seem like there was more things to explore. you'll see.
you guys need to understand with dd that it's not a bad game, it just has a lot of flaws that are grossly overlooked here because most of these faggots would be happy if dd consisted of nothing more than a loli maker.
>>321487710
John Marston is that you?
>>321492152
You activate the skill near them and you just get items. Like I said, it doesn't feel thief-like.
Being an assassin doesn't feel like the part, either.
>>321491894
it was dark arisen that nerfed the ability and i still had no trouble beating bbi solo
>>321485457
Yes, but it locks out part of a tower you're suppose to travel to.
>>321492398Neat.
>>321492276
Yes. Need someone to upload the Japanese VA from the demo copy.
They didn't remove the language detection for audio files, so once you have them you can just drag and drop and it will work.
>>321492349
Assassin can be an assassin...As least as much as possible when it come to fighting giant monsters.
You want wait for that perfect moment where the enemy is burning alive and down to jump and stab it in the weak spot. It would be amazing if you can have borderline shadow of the colossus weak spots that can cause the giant monsters to bleed out but that would make the game less fun as everything will die too quickly.
>>321492621
For an advanced class assassin is just mediocre. You can counter and stab really hard but it's just not that interesting.
>>321492935
That is true. I guess having the best attack per level up is really the only thing going for them.

Will his spirit finally rest in peace /v/?
Will the PC release finally realize his original vision?Will he ever smile again?
>>321493570
Yes but note Mage is just a healer, you will want to get to the main city (which hopefully you will be level 10 by then) and change into a Sorcerer asap. Because the game use stamina and not mana you can start out at any class and be ok. Not like the first 10 levels will effect you much anyway.
>>321493239
If you give the forged wyrmking's ring to the king he can't open the chest for you. His reaction to it is fun.

>>321493359
>pawns dont even help you
>>321493671
Its specialized, they are powerful if the situations are right. For examples, magic archers are amazing in BBI because shit like richochet shot will do a massive amount of damage in the small area's. However your might find yourself in a open area with fire shots against a enemy who highly resists fire. So then you have to rely on your daggerss.
>>321493805

>>world will feel small after realizing that
>>Aelinore is a slut that needs to be thrown out her window
False.
Aelinore is pure and has never been sullied because the duke is actually a cuckold.
>>321494619
the whole garrison has had aelinore.
the duke should wear a horned helm for gate house aely.
>>321484750
I still can't believe they actually gave the magic archer an allah akbar skill. Once I got that it was all I used for the next 3 hours.
>>321494967
Magic Archer was shit when the game came out. Only good with the expac. Which is good, because its a fun class.
>>321485403

Looks like shitty dark souls.
>>321494967
MA is kind of scary. Sacrificing pawns, planting bombs, casting curse, ect.
Keep in mind that normal humans are MA in the world of Dogma, not just Arisens. They would be sacrificing real people for the death bolt skills rather than pawns that can be recalled from the Rift.

>>321495906
True. The whole pawn/human relations thing isn't very elaborate in the game so I just assumed a random evil MA wouldn't have them around.
>>321496445
It's not mine either but damn she's cute.

she can be your love interest
>>321496536
She can also brew potions for youin your house, just get the necessary materials
>>321496465
Far as I can remember, pawns just aimlessly wander about the land. They have a tendency to visit the site of the guild frequently (for later obvious reasons), but otherwise they mill about.
Sounds like they're something of a hassle, like a homeless problem. Probably explains everyone's attitudes towards pawns, I'm not even sure if they talk to non-Arisens.
>>321496363
damn thosejpeg artifactsreally bring out her thighs
>>321496536
If you do her quest she lives at your house regardless, so romancing her is redundant.
>>321485163
God damn that was fucking badass, I didn't even know you could one shot the griffin for that mission, was this person over leveled during this mission?
I mean jesus christ that was badass like the timing was perfect too, I figured warrior could do a shit load of damage especially with a two hander but my fucking god that one shot damage.
we dark souls now
>>321496536
Too bad she does not look nearly that good in game.
>>321491071
I bought the game because I heard it was like Dark Souls.
Reminder if you just want to be an ass with a review of a hired pawn then give it low stars but if you want to tell them their pawn is shit and you aren't just being lazy with the review then give them a shit item. It kinda the idea of tipping someone with a penny.

>>321497209
I never rolled warrior when I played the game, it just seemed boring compared to mage and assassin but can that Arc of Deliverance technique really one shot some boss characters? I know that one webm up at the beginning of the thread shows a warrior using that technique to one shot the griffin.
>>321497854
Search Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen in the store, you'll see you own another item of a similar name.

Souls fags are stupid, historically-illiterate children. More news at 11.
See a slow and deliberate third-person melee combat game with fantasy elements? It must be a Souls clone. Because clearly, slow and deliberate third-person melee combat game with fantasy elements didn't exist before Demon's Souls came out.

The purple quest marker is the one that points you towards the expansion content, meant for characters starting around level 60.

Not worth it. Ditch Ferocity for eminence too and jump when you let your focused bolts go.
>>321498787
He skipped the actual main game. You don't get quest markers pop up automatically, you need to set a quest as your current one to get a red marker showing the general direction you need to go. He went straight to the DLC, which is meant to be started once you finish the first big act of the storykilling the dragon. In other words, in terms of games like dark souls, that nigga went straight to the fucking catacombs instead of the undead burg like you're meant to.
>>321498704
Err... no. It's the famed Arc.
Besides, the Warrior "counter move" doesn't auto swing on hit but instead gets stronger as you are hit more and more. It was still a manual release.
>>321498220
I'm bored so I am going to answer these for the fun of it.
>so it's like souls game?
As much as Sonic 3 & Knuckles is a platformer just like Super Mario World. It is a live action RPG but a totally different game.
>open world souls game?
There is a world where you can go literally anywhere you want even if it means dying to an overpowered enemy. So yea? Not as casual as Dark Souls (without the master key and ignoring the graveyard) as there isn't locked doors to block you. You are in the center of the world once you reach the main town which is like the 4th main quest and when the game truly starts.
>the combat is like souls game?
It is a live action RPG but I personally see it being much more faster pace and less punishing if playing on normal but much more punishing if playing on hard (at least until the money pouring in allow you to buy equipment). First hour or so in on hard mode the goblins can one hit kill you if you aren't careful. Dark Souls combat training won't help much as dodging isn't exactly a press of a button, you will actually have to dodge shit by moving. Depending on the class and skill you may get a button press dodge though. Not sure how good the i-frames are on them as I like to play Dragon Dogma like a real adventure game. I think rolling knights and mages are just silly personally and I am glad it isn't a main feature.
>>321498787

Didn't notice this before. I'm sure people will love this feature but I see the weak to fire and wolves hunt in packs as part of the charm and a good reminder that pawns are just pawns without you.
>>321485737
I think that has a bit to do with the online system. If you want to summon, you need to go human and then you open yourself up to invasions. If you spawned next to the boss, that wouldn't really happen as much. But it does become pretty annoying in some places. I liked Sanctuary Guardian because you could just go right back when you died
I've trusted your judgement on this one so It better be fucking good.
I wanna be a mystic knight. What class do I start?
>>321499492
>>321499434
Well this is Capcom. If not then it is day 1 pirate for me.
>>321499750
Mage 1-10
Sorc for a few levels/vocations
then jump into mystic knight
or just fuck it and jump into mystic knight asap
>>321499750

>>321499750
Mystic knight is basically a paladin so you'll want to know how to fight in melee and with a shield so start off as a fighter. Highest attack and HP out of the 3 starter classes for the first 10 levels.
>>321499974
No shit. I want to know if I can spend my cash on other shit and pirate this game or not.
>>321499750
Doesn't even matter, the 10 levels of stats won't make much of a difference. Personally I would go as a fighter so I would have a sword and shield ready and the advancement won't screw me over.
Kinda annoying to make a mage into a sorcerer for example as a mage use staffs where sorcerers use archistaves which the game see as a totally different weapon.

don't worry bro, at least you get might number 9

Was thinking of trying Mystic Knight with the PC release since I heard they turn the console version into slide shows. Should I level up a bit as a mage or will it not matter if I just choose fighter?
I don't really care about min max killing the final boss in 10 seconds kind of stuff. I just don't want to be gimped.
how demanding is this game going to be when it comes out on pc?
>>321500306
Stop it. It is Christmas, it isn't nice to be that mean to people regardless of who they are.
>>321484750
>where the fuck do these people get such stupid idea from?
You are literally getting arsesmouldered over nothing.
The soul games are more popular and are visible enough for even people who have never played them to know what they are about at least superficially.
In the sense that they are both third-person fantasy RPG, it is normal for the connection to be expressed.
Calm the fuck down. You just wanted to have a DD thread but you should fucking know by now that you don't need to shit-up your own DD thread to get traction.
>>321500389
Christmas has ended in any timezone that matters bucko :^)
>>321500031
Strongest class in the game.
What were they even thinking?People have been recorded getting single hits doing into the millions in terms of damage.A cyclops has 25,000hp
>>321500260
All classes beside the mage who is mainly just there to be a healer/buffer class for Rook (your first hired pawn) to be are useable. The game highly encourage switching classes and pick your favorite skills though. A passive skill to increase your health from a Warrior/Fighter calss for example might be useful for a Archer to survive longer that they may otherwise not get.
On your first run don't even try to min-max. You won't need it. Just play as whatever.
>>321500379
How demanding it will be will depend on how optimized the game is.
It is a PS3 game so playing it should be completely fine. Just turn off whatever shitty aftereffects they add to the game like bloom or len flare.
The rest is up to optimization. Capcom so far has good PC ports as far as I know. (DMC, RE, SF)

>>321500157
Most of the people buying it owned the console version already, and I think the game needs more recognitionIf the ebin maymays bother you, they were there before the PC port to begin with

>>321497304

>>321500589
The one that can rapid-fire blast arrows
I really wouldn't advise anyone to min max for their first playthrough. It really just ruins the experience since you're constantly checking guides to make sure you're doing everything right.
Where's the fun in kill bosses quickly on you first run?
>>321500679You can make your own and have other players play with her and send her back with gifts. Possibly even newsexualknowledge.
>>321500689
Assassins were nerfed slightly (so where mystic knights, for some reason) so while they're still busted, they're not nearly as good as they used to be.
>>321500787
Yea but that was for Dark Arisen. They aren't nerfed anymore beyond that though unless you know something I don't which is very possible.
>>321500787
Why are they nerfing classes in a single player game?
>>321500614
Millions.
>using Tusk Toss on your cannons
The best way to attack with your cannons is to defend. Perfect blocks with a holy riposted-charged shield.
You take everything the big bads throw at you, and turn it around on them.
UGH WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE THE 15TH
I wana make my fat wizard and his amazon warrior companion
>>321500916
Oh sorry, misread your first post slightly.
>>321500959
The Assasin used to get retarded amounts of everything besides magic, so if you played the entire game as one you'd become a god king at everything but strait magic.
>>321500959
Assassins were literally that OP
>>321500959
It's just for balance purposes between the classes. Even if it's single player, one class mustn't be that much more powerful than another. In this case, stats and some augments were tweaked. Playing solo should not be that easier comparatively.
>>321500589
>What is the most overpowered class?
Mystic Knight and maybe Magick Archer following.
People say Assassin but they get their balls busted against Living Armour.
People say blast arrows but they get their balls busted having to carry around fuckloads of stupid heavy arrows because their core skills are too weak to get the job done.
Mystic Knight/Magick Archer are innately supreme.
I hate that my pawn can't be a Mystic Knight. Guess I'll settle for Archer. Might work out well enough if I am going in as Magick Archer and they will be learning from me.
>>321499750
Doesn't matter, you'll get by fine anyway

>>321501218
Depends which "archer" you're choosing.
There's Strider and Ranger.
Ranger is focused on long range attacks, with daggers as backups.
Strider is focused on daggers primary with bows as supplementary damage.

Anyway, no spears of lances in the game.Maybe in DD2?
>director Hideaki Itsuno said that Dragon's Dogma is a game he had been dreaming about making since his school days. He was able to realize that dream due to modern technology, and had been directing a staff of around 150 people at Capcom Japan for the previous two years of development time (three years including conceptual phases).
Was his dream a sucess?
>>321502157
Considering half of his ideas didn't even make it in, I'd say DD is blue balls for him
>>321501910
It's a medium for attack, you can push anything through it thus it can be used in conjunction with nearly any skil regardless of place.
>>321502207
You misunderstand, I'm saying those skills are boorish.
>>321497586
Schierke a cute, CUTE!
>>321502037
DD2 would be a perfect chance to add all that shit they had to cut such as player race, bigger enemies, and the final boss fight being in space
Also cooler classes and yes even spears, maybe even the ability to make more then 1 pawn which i felt may have been a lot more fun
>>321484750

>>321493671
Most broken class in the game. Indoors? Fire ricochet bolts and anything dies. Outdoors? Sixfold bolts destroy anything. Enemies are outdoors AND resist ice? Fire Explosive Rivet and watch the fireworks.
Not to mention that you can just set yourself on fire and shred through Cursed Dragons like tissue paper.

Whats the deal with no polearms anyway. And only mystic knight gets to use maces
>>321485737
But it does matter.
If you had a checkpoint next to the boss room , then the area you just crossed would be irrelevant.
This way, it isn't just the boss that's challeging, but the whole area.

I'm thinking about classes and it seems a lot more personality could be brought out if you chose Vocations as well as sub-specialties (jobs?).

Keep pretty much everything DD did right.
I won't write an exhaustive list, you know what those points are.
We don't need fast travel, fuck that casual bullshit .The current system of portcrystal and ferrystones is enough. All you really need to do is diversify enemy spawns.
I don't think you can really beat the story more than 'become a god' so the story should be about something else than the Never-ending Chain. It could something as simple as internal politics or warfare or whatever. Don't need to be a true Arisen either (you could be a pawn-turned human that lost its memories or whatever. Invent a reason why other pawns might follow you)
Mounts could be fine if you limit them to some classes or jobs. I don't want dev-wankery like Bethesda does about horses. Travelling should be about killing shit on the way, not about looking at a horse's ass and run past shit.
I certainly want to see the monster roster expand.
Introduce more story-unrelated activities (non combat). There could be an arena set up for you to fight in and rise or for you to bet in. Heck, you could make your pawn fight in it against other players' pawns too.
>>321503328
You do.
>>321503654
>Capcom's been doing this shit for years

>>321503654
Monster Hunter is just Dark Souls with monsters.
Nah, Dragons Dogma is like Enclave but with climbing

Like I said, you're retarded.
You'll probably end up as another shitposter after the game releases.
>>321503740
>We don't need fast travel, fuck that casual bullshit
If there was one complaint DD rightfully suffered was how tedius the trips are, so nah senpai
>>321503581

>>321503951
Devil May Cry is just I should have been the one to fill your Dark Souls with LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT
>>321503882
They were tedious because they were repetitive. The enemy spawns were no diverse enough.
Fine, have a shitty travel system like cart-travel between settlements maybe for a price. Opening your map and clicking somewhere for instant travel is boring and casual.
Mmm, how about diversifying the playable races? Originally, there were supposed to be beast races in DD but that got axed by the higher up. I want to meet dwarves and elves and shit.
>>321504006
I like it. Could use a bit more coloring and vibrancy to counter all that ye olde brown and grey but I'd keep the overall feel the same.
>>321503941
The problem with calling it Dark Souls is people will think it plays like it when it clearly doesn't, it's false
>>321504048
wasn't there a dreamcast one?

And yes . . . Bottom left outfit.
>>321504272
yea, that was called guts' rage iirc. i played it briefly on a loaner from a friend. too bad the dc died not very long after, so potential localized sequels were dommed forever
>>321504206
As long as you specify how the gameplay (the pacing, fluidity and accuracy) are different, the comparison can still be made. I found going from DS into DD really easy but I couldn't go back afterward.
>>321504285
It's because of the way one-handed swords (and maces) are animated. It's not so bad with smaller shields but some combos make you use both hands on the weapon and that giant shield would be flippedidlee-ing all over the place.

Honest, non retarded question, is DD's battle system anything like Demon's Souls'? Is it better? I got DeS for christmas and I liked the gameplay and wanted to know how the gameplay felt with this one.
>>321505073
Dragon's Dogma is Demon's Souls but with Dark Souls.
>>321505073
It's a big different, but appeals to both
I think a fan of souls games would be a fan of DD and MH and vice verse but all three games are entirely different
>>321505073
It's similar in that you can swing a sword and it's played in third-person.
Unlike the Soul games, however, there is no hitbox bullshitery and the out-time between moves is much, much shorter.
>>321505073
no no no no no no no
if anything it's like DMC+shadow of the colossus
it's RPG with combat done right.
i dont even know where people get the idea about Dark souls from. it has almost nothing in common, it's more like Witcher 3 with better combat but everything else worse
>>321505073
No. Dragon's Dogma's combat system is not like Demon's Souls, nor is it like any iteration of the Souls series. The only similarities is that you are a human swinging weapons at monsters. That is it. They literally only share that concept.
>>321505073
>>321505220
As for how it feels; much better.
I said so earlier but transitioning for the Soul games to DD was easy as shit. It felt so much better. But now I can't go back to any of those games.
>>321505260
>>321505275
>>321505186
Tell me more about it.
The game sounds and looks really fucking fun, but I'm not the type of guy who would drops $30 on games unless it's extremely fucking good

I was hoping someone would write a good explanation that made the game sound so good that would make anyone regret not owning it right now.
>>321505594
video worth million words
>>321505220
Sometimes the hit detection on big enemies is kinda wonky, I'm clinging to a cyclopes leg and suddenly die when it stomps
>>321505406
Plot starts bland, turns into bananas later. Read or at least know a little about Nietzche, the game universe revolves around its concepts.
Combat is very fun. Melee/archers are god tier. Never played caster classes because its not my thing, but I heard it's the most awesome spellcasting in gaming.
Plus you get one loyal companion that can be made as you want (waifu/bro/whatever)
>>321506216
The stomp attack is tied to the leg as a whole. If you are on it you will be hit (there is two attacks in that stomp. You get extra damage is you are under it but simply get half if you are clinging to the knee or above).

Why does the DD wiki have such shit images? Is there a video showing off all the armor and wapons somewhere?
>>321505594
A pack of skeletons spawn in front if me, like fifteen of them and one giant skeleton. So I pick up a fire barrel and throw it into the skeletons and they all basically explode. The big skeleton flies into the air and while it's down, my companion jumps onto its head. Skeleton stands up and pawn is still hanging on slashing away. That skeleton is skilled indeed and lands a hit on me. I die in one shot because I'm way underleveled but it was a good time

>>321505406
The biggest difference between DD and DeS/Das is the pace.
The pace of Dragon's Dogma adheres to which class you are playing as/like to play as. For each vocation there is a different play style, even though that difference is typically minor. First are the red vocations: Fighter and Warrior. Fighter is your sword and board archetype and Warrior is Big McLarge Huge two-hander class. Second are the yellows: Strider and Ranger. Striders are agile little fuckers with the single highest DPS attacks in the game with Hundred(Thousand) Kisses and Cloudburt(Hailstorm) Volley. Striders are also the only class with a unique ability: to climb enemies faster. Rangers focus mostly on their bow abilities, predominantly the Tenfold Flurry. Not a single enemy in the game can stand up to the Liquid Vim + Blast Arrows + x4 Conqueror Periapt combination, so if you want to abuse maximum over-cheese this is the class to do it. Finally, you have the blue vocations: Mage and Sorcerer. Mages are the only class with access to the healing spell and are typically reserved for pawns. Sorcerers, on the other hand, have all the world-ender spells at their disposal. Sorcerers play very slow since they have to charge their spells and you have to rely on your pawns to take the aggro otherwise you'll be knocked out of the charge. To make up for this though, your world-ender spells have ridiculous damage. You can summon meteors to rain down on your enemies, create huge spires of ice to shoot out of the ground and pierce everything in your way, you can summon up an enormous tornado to blast away everything with ludicrous tick-based damage. The other enormous mechanic in regards to Sorcerers is the bunny hop or spell hop. If your pawn has begun charging up a spell, you can begin to cast that same spell but immediately jump to their level of charge without having to deal with all that wait time.
>>321507040you forgot mk
>>321504638

>>321507230
He didn't say a word about any of the hybrid classes (yet?)
>>321507367i didn't notice
i only thought of mk for some reason, despite maining assassin on ps3
So i've been looking up this game a lot afterr seeing some webms of the spells and combat.
Something that's bothering me though is in all the gameplay I see of outdoor areas, they seem to be designed like video game levels, not as a world. I hate to compare it to skyrim, but that game did a great job of making thee over world feel like an actual natural place and not something that's designed for you to just walk from point A to point B or maybe point C across.
Am I just not watching the right videos or is the overwolrd design indeed not as organic?
>>321506885
Arisen's tits will always be inferior to Jewtits
>>321507692
Overworld's great for exploration, with wide open spaces and plenty of hidden shit.
The problem is that enemy spawns are static, you'll find the same enemies in the same places.
>>321507692
>video game world seems to be designed like video game levels
Nigga wat
Also, Skyrim is obscured in foliage and rivers. Sure, I guess it's immersive but it's just fluff and filler
>>321507040
Now that leads us to the Hybrid Vocations and all of them are unique in their own way.
>Mystic Knight.
You can use swords, maces, magic shields and staves. You have access to all the Mage spells sans Anodyne (the healing spell), plus you get to cast your own unique spells. These are predominantly elemental buffs with a few impressive offensive spells as well. It's my favourite class by far, but I prefer to be up close and personal swathing heathens aside like my own personal paladin. Conversely, you can stick to a corner and set down spells (Great Cannon) and generally be a pussy fucking faggot about it. So you can play like a Fighter that can buff himself and the party or you can play like a Sorcerer that has a bit more defence.
>Assassin
You can use swords, daggers, shields and bows. You have access to all basic Fighter and Stider abilities and you can technically switch "on-the-fly" between your weapons but that requires a menu input and breaks the flow of combat. Assassins are what you could consider to be the glass cannons of Dragon's Dogma. You can climb all of your enemy like a Strider, wreck fuckers like a Fighter or choose to be the most stylish motherfucker of all and opt out of almost all defensive capabilities and roll with a sword/bow.
>Magick Archer
Without a doubt the most over-powered class in regards to Bitterblack Isle (the end-game dungeon). Like MK and Mage, you can wield a staff and have access to all the basic magic spells, but why the fuck would you do that when you have a FUCKING MAGIC BOW. This shit ends all arguments by essentially giving you the best of both worlds: decent magic damage with unique ranged spells that auto-target and Strider attack damage It plays a lot like Strider in the sense you have a good balance of CQC and ranged attacks however all the ranged attacks are magic. Oh, and you can set yourself on fire. It's fucking RAD as SHIT.
>>321507692
ever played gothic? It's like that but with less caverns.
>>321507692
I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to say.
The overworld is diverse but 90% of the expository webms are done near the big town because that's where you can swap and buy skills. There is variation in setting and atmosphere in the overword. Not to mention the dungeons/caves/places.

>>321509009
Mountainside forest, open sub-forest, wilted forest, hill forest, seaside cliffs, mountain pass, low seaside, deadland, open swamps...
Not big enough to be called biomes and the enemy spawns are dependent mostly on the time of the day.

It's pretty great.

First time I faced that asshole I though he'd be a little bitch. I still won because I was not a low level scrub anymore but it surprised the shit out of me.
What this game lacked was having a lot of mid-tier enemies at once. Like, in an area you'd usually reach for the first time at around level 30, it would have been nice to fight five/six Skeleton Lords along with two dozen higher-tier skeleton fighters.
>>321510472

I find the grief with these and other enemies in Dogma comes from having party builds that are just not suited to fighting them. It becomes more like trying to cut a loaf of hot butter with a rock rather than a hot knife. A lot harder than it should be.
For example, hellhounds tend to stagger a lot so any of the vocations with instant reset will find them vastly more easy because of not wobbling/getting dragged around.
Sorcerers will always be having to blast through any group of mid-tier enemies because all they need to do is get a single cast of maelstrom off, not even high maelstrom, and everything will just be light enough to get sucked into the vortex core.

Is there a way to remove the freezing screen every time you hit something?

>Doesn't finish the game again in NG+ offline mode.
How to depress yourself, in a single line of text.

Why the fuck would you remove the best action impact?

Same type of death for me, different circumstances.
I was trying to fill up my map while searching for a safe place for the night. Eventually night came without me finding shit, so I ended up wandering around aimlessly in the dark. Then while I was playing around with and testing amount of light the lantern puts out a chimera was able to creep up on me. Fighting it had me moving all over the fucking place because it kept running into the dark trying to sneak attack me, but was eventually able to kill it. Only I ended up more lost than I was before, and that's when I ran into the drake.
After I died then came back to to where I had left off, turned out that I was just a short distance away from the fortress.
I still think that the darkness and dangers of the night is one of the best mechanics in the game.

>implying leaving the mortal plane to become a god to feed the universe isn't terrible
>implying it doesn't suck you have to bait a mortal to grow stronger to take your place and kill you
>implying it's not shit that you have hundreds or thousands of years to ponder how far back this bullshit goes or how long it will continue
WHAT A MEME
>>321511552>Think you escape the Eternal Ring.>NG+ Offline Mode pits you up against your old Arisen and Pawn.Realize that it is all entirely pointless and that the Eternal Ring is inescapable unless you continue it via another Arisen taking your place.Also realize that Savan tried the exact same fucking tactic and you pull the Godsbane from his chest, too.
