Dragon's Dogma 2 Players Are Gifting Each Other Forged Items

@Splat Nice work on the platinum, that can't have been easy. I didn't get anywhere close to it.

Final Fantasy 14 is getting a graphical overhaul with the release of Dawntrail, but some fans aren't happy with what they're seeing so far. The graphical overhaul promises to give characters new visual depth and more refined appearances, something many have been hoping for now that Final Fantasy 14 is over a decade old.

A new Dragon's Dogma 2 patch is here to remedy progression-blocking bugs, but PC players are frustrated that it hasn't addressed performance issues prevalent since launch.

Dragon’s Dogma 2 is about the journey, not the destination. It’s about exploring routes you’ve never taken before, camping in the wilderness, and having an unexpected run in with a Minotaur. Quests objectives are also left intentionally vague, forcing you to puzzle things out and speak to as many people as you can. If you could just easily fast travel to obvious quest markers you could certainly check them off your list more efficiently, but then you’d miss out entirely on the adventure of getting there.

Based on credit listings at videogame documentation site MobyGames, action RPG Dragon's Dogma 2 may have had around a quarter of the headcount compared to other AAA Capcom releases in recent years.

@ApostateMage haha these moments are the best. This is the location I had wandered off to while getting side tracked from everything else. I went in a sorcerer (I think) and came back as a Magick Archer, then switched to thief at Bakbhattal after i'd levelled up to about MA lv5.

@Splat You aren’t really. The game is designed to be played multiple times so if you can’t stumble upon it, theoretically that is what NG+ is for.

Just when you think the Helldivers 2 Automaton warfront can't get any worse, the bots bring not one, but two new menaces to the battlefield. As flying Gunships shred players from the skies, new machine walkers called Factory Striders are also flattening democracy enthusiasts down on the ground. 

Dragon's Dogma 2 has captivated the hearts of newcomers and veterans alike, but one of its players shared a concept of how the game could further expand on its list of vocations. While the excitement around Dragon's Dogma 2 was notably high prior to release, it has since firmly established itself as Capcom's most successful launch on Steam. Despite the initial negativity over its microtransactions and performance issues, it has ultimately done little to deter players from enjoying Dragon's Dogma 2 and all the fun that its unique open world experience can provide.

Fall damage is a beast in Dragon's Dogma 2 all of its own. There you are, minding your business on a slippery, slanted rooftop when, all of a sudden, you hurl off the side and land flat on your face as your pawns point and laugh at you like Nelson in The Simpsons. Luckily, there's a way to avoid leaving your entrails on the pavement.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is pretty fantastic - I'm sure you'll struggle to find a fan of the series that doesn't hold that viewpoint. That doesn't mean it's perfect though, as while the game is looking like one of 2024's best, there are some things that are beginning to irk players that have sunk a significant amount of time into the game. Earlier this week, fans were complaining about the lack of enemy variety, and it turns out the beasties in Dragon's Dogma 2 aren't the only things that are getting a little repetitive.

I really wish they would put a checkmark next to a dungeon after you have cleared them. I want to do them all and it makes it a real pain.
