Dragon's Dogma 2 launched around ten days ago, earning a favorable reception from critics (I gave it an 8/10 in my review) but not equally enthusiastic from fans, especially on Steam. That was largely due to the microtransactions and technical performance, but there are other minor issues that PC users can easily fix with the help of mods.
The Nexus website dedicated to Dragon's Dogma 2 already hosts 313 mods that have been downloaded 1.5 million times in total. Here's an overview of the best ones.
Dragon's Dogma 2 features a 'Camera Distance' slider. However, that doesn't really affect the Field of View (FOV). Thankfully, the Camera Tweaks mod created by LuizCaza takes care of the issue by increasing the FOV from the base 60 to 75/90 (from vanilla 60), removing the camera "nudge" that occurs when the player begins to sprint, and slightly altering the camera position to keep the character closer in order to compensate from the FOV reducing the character's space on the screen. To install this mod, you'll need to download the Fluffy Mod Manager first.
This is self-explanatory, really. Dragon's Dogma 2 removes the consumption of stamina in towns and villages, but as soon as you're out of these civilized outposts, every sprint will heavily tax your stamina bar, potentially putting you in danger if a group of monsters catches you out of breath. This can be installed either with the RE Framework or with Fluffy.
Again, self-explanatory. I'm pretty sure I've spent a non-trivial amount of my playthrough in this game just sorting the inventory and removing relatively useless items to avoid exceeding the maximum carry weight. You can try to find Golden Trove Beetles while exploring the world, but each one only adds 0.15 kg to your carry weight. The problem can be solved once and for all with this mod, which buffs the Ring of Accrual (available for purchase at the beginning of Dragon's Dogma 2) from a meager 5 to an effectively endless value of 20,50,500 kg. Use Fluffy to install.
One of my criticisms of Dragon's Dogma 2 is the near-complete obscurity of the affinity system. This mod attempts to fix the issue by showing the player character's current standing with any non-player character. It should be used in conjunction with the Show Name mod from the same modder. Install with Fluffy.
Combat boons have a shorter cast and longer duration with this mod (installed with Fluffy). The cast is always one second quicker (from 2.5 to 1.5), while the duration can be selected from x2,
As expected following the glowing reception, Amazon has renewed the Fallout TV series for a second season.
Fallout 76, the online survival game set in the Fallout universe, got a massive player base boost thanks to the combination of the Prime Gaming giveaway, heavy discounts, and the popularity of the Amazon Prime Video TV series (just renewed for a second season).
Helldivers 2 is an extremely popular game, far more than probably either Arrowhead or Sony hoped for. That said, it isn't perfect, and the developers are well aware of that.
Over six years after the first game's release, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is finally official. Czech developer Warhorse Studios has been cooking a sequel in great secret until it's almost ready.
Fallout 76 for PC and Xbox consoles is now free to grab for Prime Gaming subscribers, who have until May 15 to permanently add the game to their libraries. Do note that the PC version is a Microsoft Store code.
The Fallout London total conversion mod for Fallout 4 has been delayed once more, though again, it's not really the modding team's fault.
With the Fallout TV show on Amazon Prime Video getting rave reviews, the question on everyone's mind is whether Bethesda will try to replicate that magic with the Elder Scrolls franchise.
This GeForce NOW Thursday is headlined by the addition of Fallout 4 and Fallout 76, which celebrate the release of the TV series adaptation (available now for streaming on Prime Video).
It's been nearly eight years since I wrote about Fallout Cascadia, a total conversion mod for Bethesda's Fallout 4 game. I nearly forgot about it, which is understandable since the last showcase video the modding team pushed on YouTube was dated July 2021.
As we had correctly surmised, the Star Wars Outlaws story trailer also brought the release date announcement. The game is indeed launching sooner than originally thought (Disney had previously hinted at late 2024), being slated for August 30; however, that's also a bit later than some fans were hoping for, as some had even speculated the game could have launched on May the 4th.
Arrowhead's Helldivers 2 continues to sell at an incredible rate. The latest report from GSD (reported by GamesIndustry) reveals that the game was once again the top-selling title when considering both digital and physical channels across the United Kingdom.
Marketing for Star Wars Outlaws is about to kick off in a big way, with the world premiere story trailer slated to air on Tuesday, April 9 at 9 AM Pacific Time/noon Eastern Time/6 PM Central European Time.
