Hideaki Itsuno, the director behind Dragon's Dogma 2, recently recommended that new players use either the Archer or Thief class and explained his reasoning. However, players looking to jump into the newly released Dragon's Dogma 2 might want to know about its recent controversy.
Although it received positive reviews from critics, fans were frustrated to find that Dragon's Dogma 2 includes an assortment of microtransactions despite its $70 price tag. However, many of the benefits that these microtransactions give can be obtained by simply playing the game, so this issue might not be an end-all-be-all for some Dragon's Dogma fans. Nevertheless, the strategy has left a bad impression on many users, who are also dealing with performance issues and the game's surprising use of only one save slot. Despite these problems, the ambitious game sports over 175,000 Steam users at the time of writing.
As for players preparing to begin their journey in Capcom's newest RPG, director Itsuno shared his advice for new Dragon's Dogma 2 players in a GamesRadar+ interview. He said that players coming from an FPS or third-person shooter background should consider choosing the Archer class (known as Vocations) since it rewards accurate aim with increased damage output and is a good way for new users to «get to grips with the game at the start.» As for players who are more familiar with close-quarters combat seen in games likeElden Ring, Itsuno said they should consider picking the Thief Vocation, which uses positioning and quick strikes to defeat enemies. However, Itsuno also emphasized that new players should be free to pick whatever Vocation seems most appealing to them.
Itsuno went on to reveal his personal Vocation setup, which consists of the Warfarer Vocation for his protagonist and the Sorceror Vocation for his three pawns. Warfarer and Sorceror are not part of Dragon's Dogma 2's starting Vocations, but can be unlocked by completing certain quests. Initially, players must choose between Fighter, Mage, Thief, and Archer.

The post did mention Dragon's Dogma 2's use of microtransactions, but did not say that these would be adjusted or removed.
Despite the criticism, Dragon's Dogma 2 managed to break records for Capcom. It became the studio's most-played game in terms of concurrent Steam users, reaching a peak of just over 200,000 players.

Capcom and director Hideaki Itsuno’s vision for the original Dragon’s Dogma was to develop a purely single player experience that, through the use of its AI-controlled companions known as Pawns, would emulate the feeling of an MMORPG with other players. The upcoming, long overdue Dragon’s Dogma 2 is set to expand on its predecessor in a number of ways – from a larger open world to how much content it’ll offer and much more – but that focus on delivering a purely single player experience isn’t changing.
