EDIT: Had to cut out some portions of this due to recent updates to Capcom games. Sorry! So this is a little bit late for easter but I hope ya like it all the same. Thank you for your patience. If you have any requests, criticisms or vegetables to throw about Dragon's Dogma, now is the time as the next Dragon's Dogma video will be my absolute last. Until the Dragon's Dogma Online video. And the DD2 video. And the DD2 apology video. Have a great summer
Holy smokes thank you! I can't promise it'll be on time rofl, but I hope when it comes I can make a video that does the game justice. I really appreciate ya taking the time to watch my videos and leave kind words. I say that a lot but it means a lot to me, and I hope I can keep making videos worth your time. Thank you!
Your team can act as an advance party on that ox cart escort quest. Mercedes and friends will stop walking if you’re too far from them. This allows you to attack all enemies on your path without having to worry about the cart & the soldiers. Return to Mercedes and they will resume walking. Some enemies (goblins, wolves, and bandits) will still spawn when you travel with the cart but at least there will be less.
Sorry for late reply I missed this the other day. I genuinely had no idea this was the case, coming from MMOs you either keep up with escort NPCs or they die rofl. So I thought we had to keep going. That does sound like such a good way to sort out the path ahead (but I won't lie I wanted that cart to move at warp speed) Thank you for sharing this info, and for taking the time out of your day to watch my video, I really do appreciate it! Thank you!
Looking forward to your DD content. Subscribed for it. As someone who's attempting solo runs of BBI straight after new game, I can say that Sorcerer owns the game with Maelstrom, Comestion, and Holy F*cking Focused Bolts. And the occasional Gicel for Banshees.
Ayyy Abeldiaz! Thanks for coming back again I really appreciate it and hope you're doing well! :D Damn see that sounds like the sorcerer I got a taste of but a BBI solo run sounds really rough even with all that magical power. Although I can see Maelstrom helping a lot with being solo. I wish you good luck! I repeat myself I guess but I wanna say thank you again for returning, it means a lot to me if someone likes my videos enough to come back. Thank you!
Whoah whoah whoah, there's an AFK experience farm? I gotta go find a video on that. EXP grind can be a bit of a bore if you don't want to go full blast powder sweat on death. Great video, fun watch. Can't wait to finish binge watching your entire backlog during work this week!
Maaaaaan thank you I just seen your other comment. Thank you for subscribing and watching more of my videos. Thank you! And yeah even if I wasn't playing to make videos, I think the experience farm is just essential. If you park yourself up on that wall after defeating the Dragon, endless guards will spawn and get mopped up by your pawns. Easy gold and exp. It's honestly wonderful you can't go wrong.
Ayyy Looney! Thank you my dude, hope you're doing well too! Yeah this was a real on and off one for a few months haha! But it was worth it I think, I had a lot of fun making this. Well after the starting slog but that's always Dragons Dogma haha! Thank you for always supporting me and taking the time out of your day to do so. It helped push me to keep making them back in the early videos. Thanks man
Yeah no problem mate it’s always a blast to listen to your wit and jokes 😁 Yeah not doing too bad myself still waiting on updates but we’ve heard others have been receiving keys so shouldn’t be too long now. I need to jump back in before the sequel comes out and see about 100%ing it 🫣😅
@@MadnlooneyJR This is what we wanna hear ya know! Hope they do not keep you waiting long! Oh goodness me, 100% of DD is no mean feat but I respect that immensely, I don't think I could manage that haha :D I like completing games but maybe a little too much repetition for me to 100% this one.
Oh damn, almost missed this video! I'm glad your channel randomly popped into my mind and i checked for new content. As always, great and entertaining video! Thank you 😀 Keep it up and happy easter, haha.
Ayy J Dood! Thanks for coming back! Happy easter to you too :D Glad ya liked it and thank you so much for your kind words, I really do appreciate it, so thank you!
Maaaaan I dunno what to say to that except thank you! I had no idea just what I was getting into when I posted my DD video, but I knew I wanted to try and do the game justice because it clearly deserves it. So to be able to make more videos and have people enjoy them is wonderful. Thank you, for watching my video and for taking the time to leave kind words, I really appreciate it. Thank you!
@@darthvader3725 Rofl oh damn, for that you have my sincerest apologies! Ah I'm just glad you're enjoying it honestly I couldn't ask for more! Thank you!
Haha! I mean it is the best way to explain anything, start on one thing and then talk about something else so I respect that! I can always support the decision to play DD so long as you know when to call it a day rofl, I think this game needs that as a warning on the back. Nah I love it I also wanna say thank you for coming back to watch my video and again for stopping to comment. Thank you!
Ayyy Dotunfadairo! Thanks for coming back my dude! And thank you for your kind words, it's lovely to hear holy smokes. I just hope I can keep making good vids! Also the weight cheat I did using dinput8.dll hooks from nexusmods. It hooks into the game and lets you change loads of things. I'll pop a link to it in the description, thanks for bringing it up actually as that's a good idea!
Thank you! Holy smokes, for watching and commenting, and watching my other videos too! I appreciate it and yeah, it's one of those games I think everyone has a 'playthrough story' of how they came to love the game haha. A magical journey
More Dragons Dogma from you?! Youre spoiling us man. also np on that escort quest haha. idk what my name shows up as now but im Grand Moff. Changed it to "Upsedriss" but on my end it's now showing as grand moff again but with numbers behind it instead 💀
Ayyyy dude thanks for coming back! Hope you're doing good! Yeah sorry about the names haha, when UA-cam changed everything it became a nightmare. Channel names don't match up with commenter names, and commenter names on videos are different to those in my creator studio. I've seen comments with 3 different names attached to them depending on when they name changed, it's very confusing rofl I really appreciate your helpful advice as well, you saved me hours of time. And I gotta say it, thank you! For watching my video, and taking the time to leave yet more kind words, it means a lot to me so thank you!
@@reallylatereviews no problemo man, video was enjoyable and entertaining as per usual. saved you hours eh? maybe Im brainfarting but I only really recall the escort quest comment and while thats long thats certainly not hours haha. so im not 100% sure what youre referfering to, maybe i missed something. Glad to see you still enjoy the game despite its issues. Playing BBI as sorcerer as I'm typing this, 900+ hours played now.
Hey listen nah listen, that ain't it. If I had to do that escort quest legit, I was turning that game off for the night rofl. This saved me hours of real time and I got to keep playing thanks to your advice, good shoutout haha! It still takes the better part of an hour without kicking the Ox, it feels that way anyway. 900+ holy shit that's some serious DD time. I don't think I will ever hit that playtime but I think after coming back again and again, I can see the appeal of doing so. It really is a game you can just sink into and adventure, and that's a very rare thing.
@@reallylatereviews indeed it is :) and for any future plays pick up the Ring of Preseverance on BBI either with a moonbeam gem or a barrel glitch, thats like +25% discipline gain (skills and vocation level), repeat on hard mode and you got two of em, doubles the discipline. really speeds stuff up a whole lot. also looking forward to the next one and any potential online or 2 video in the fufure. keep it up man 👍
@@Upsedriss I just missed the ring that stops the lantern from going out all the time rofl, but I will keep an eye out for this ring as well, thank you!
Such a pleasant surprise seeing this on my feed. The video was super awesome, which by now should not come as a surprise. And you've got even more Dragon's Dogma videos on the way, I couldn't be happier.
Ayyy Julius thanks for coming back! Hope you're doing good! Thank you for watching and for your comment, holy smokes and honestly I just hope I can keep making videos that live up to your kind words! Yeah I think some more DD is coming hehe no timeframe though, I'll pace it out between other videos most likely :D
Ayyye really late reviews, thank you for making the content you do. Genuinely so comforting and soothing listening to your voice! Thanks for making my days better.
Ayyyy Subway hope you're doing good! Thank you! I wouldn't be making these without the positive stuff I get to read, so it genuinely makes my day. To tell you the truth I sit through these so many times, when these go up I am always sick of the sound of my own voice rofl! But to get to know I've put smiles on at least a few faces haha! It's wonderful, thank you for your kind words! Also thanks for the shoutout about the sphinx :D
First of all, thank you for coming back Someonebritish, hope you're doing good and thank you for the kind words. I'm gonna keep at it as best I can! And ya know what I am pretty happy with my subscribers haha! I get to recognise people coming back and respond to lots of comments, so I am happy! Thank you again!
I've had this game since it released on the Xbox 360 and have replayed it I don't know how many times . . . and I never knew you could make the ox during the escort mission bolt like that . . . I'm over here internally screaming, lol.
Rofl, aw I swear this game is like an onion. There's more under each layer, every time. I'm sorry you had to wait this long for the ox reveal because I can only imagine the pain of that quest over and over without the speed boost haha! Aw shit well I am grateful as well, thank you for coming to watch my video and taking the time to comment. I really appreciate it, thank you!
I love that theme, it's criminal they didn't leave it on rotation or something in the menu. Could have easily had those themes switch on startup. I also wanna thank you for watching! And for commenting, I appreciate it! Thank you!
The legend returns! Glad to see ya back and living up to your channel name X'D Glad for my Easter gift in July 😂 Honestly excited for your thoughts on Dragon's dogma 2
Ayyy Cyclone! Hope you're doing well! Yeee I gotta keep things a little late haha, easter just getting started! I tell ya I am excited to play Dragon's Dogma 2 as well! Hopefully I can make a video worth your time about it. Thanks for coming back as well to watch my video, I say this a lot but I really appreciate it and especially as it's partially your fault I came back at all haha! So thank you!
@reallylatereviews ahahaha! Glad to hear I'm partially at fault for this. But yeah I always look forward to your stuff. It's just nice to see a fresh take as well as you have such a great way of going about a balance of humor and just honest opinion in your video. It's a nice change of pace from the cookie cutter youtube style. Also I know you mentioned trying out the other vocations and dabbled a bit with the ranger class. I'm gonna say right now 10 fold flurry and corkscrew are my favorite abilities to use. Especially if you combo them with arrow types such as blast for 10 fold or petrified with corkscrew. Wanna finely show death what you're made of? Grab yourself a ton of blast arrows and stack on top with 4 Conqueror's Periapt. Watch any bosses health bar just drop like flies.
@@cyclone327 I've stayed away from the arrow types purely because the UI makes me want to scream but I tell ya for ranger I will brave it because arrow items seem like a massive part of that vocation, whereas they never got mentioned as hard for magick archer. This is all good advice, thank you! I'm gonna come back to this when I record the video and make sure I demonstrate this! Hopefully I can take on death at last haha! And maaaaan thank you! I try to do my thing, I worry about cluttering my channel with fun video ideas because I dunno if anyone wants that. If stuff works I'll do more like this outside the reviews, but it'll always be inbetween reviews rather than a replacement. Thank you again!
I just wanted to add that I beated the game few weeks ago and my waifu was selene wich was a pawn and became human and by the end of the end in the last cinematic she mentioned that we (the arisen) sacrified ourself for our pawn to live just like the master of selene. So she'll knew that you're not the real arisen and I found it so cool. And sorry for my bad english not my native language.
Oh holy shit so she would have filled the player in on what went down? That's crazy! I like that. Thanks for bringing that up because someone else said more side quests helped explain this. Game is nuts with it's hidden lore. You speak English really well, do not even apologise. I wouldn't have even known if you hadn't told me :D Thank you again for sharing this and for watching my video as well! I really appreciate it, so thank you!
It's great to see you uploading a new video. Love the way you describe how you experience video games. While this game has many flaws, I don't think there is anything like it in the gaming space at the moment which explains the game's cult following. Certainly looking forward to DD2 and watching your video about it.
First of all thanks for coming back to watch my new video and leave kind words, I really do appreciate it (even if I say that a few times haha!) I couldn't agree more about DD, on the surface it's easy to think it's similar to other games, but it really is one of a kind when you get into it. That unique magic helps it no end. And holy smokes, thank you! I just hope my video on DD2 lives up to the game haha! Thank you!
You are very good and entertaining sir, I'm glad I found your channel, had to play Bloodrayne again because of you. Be nice to see an Assassin class video in the future if you're still on the mood, keep up the good work!
Ayyy I hope you enjoyed Bloodrayne after another playthrough haha! And thank you so much for your kind words and for watching as well! I really do appreciate it, so thank you! Rest assured an assassin video will be coming eventually :D
I bought the game and played about 20 hours. But I stopped because my pawns always die and I got to revive them and the climbing onto big monsters is hard and not my cup of tea. But I really enjoyed your video and I might play the game again soon. I dont play online which is fine for me. I also hope Dd2 will have more pc friendly mouse and keyboard controls. Skyrim is fun and I have played alot on PC but its becomes a chore with the controls. Im looking forward to more content from you!
First of all, thank you for coming back Daba to watch my video and leave kind words, hope you're doing well! And I hope I can keep making videos worth your time! Secondly, I get that I really do. For a long time I had a staff on my main pawn called Legion's Might, this let my own mage resurrect herself every time she died. It saved me a lot of headaches. I think you either love the monster climbing or not. I do love it, but sometimes I'm left with very little reason to do so. And once you're up there you can only bonk the creature so it's a system that has a lot of room for improvement. I hope DD2 will be better, and as you said better for PC users - recent Capcom games have had really good mouse + keyboard support so I bet they will do! And yeah Skyrim is great I love it. You are right as well, the age of the controls/UI is showing now, but it's kept younger by mods.
Amazing video! Keep it up and it's good to see you keep enjoying and discovering more about the game. You're making me want to experience the game once more but i forgot where i got a mod for character skin to look good and scars to look meaningful (i'm too picky for it lmao) Happy slightly belated easter as well and I'm looking forward to what you can give us in the future!
Ayyy happy easter to you too! And thank you for watching my video and your really kind words! It really means a lot to me so thank you! And I get that haha, the only mods I've installed are the Dinky compilation from nexus which mostly provides cleaner textures. You're right about the scars, I found with the default skin they didn't stand out very well at all
Daimons 2nd form is something you need to prepare for. It's a slog for melee classes, the only real viable strategy for Warrior and Fighter is to pop liquid vim, climb on top of Daimons head, pop 4 conqueror's periapt and pummel him until he tries to burn you alive. This will likely throw you off, which means, you need to pop another liquid vim and repeat what you just did. Mythic Knight can use holy great cannon shenanigans in combination with 4 demons periapt. Mages and Magic archers are usually fine (if they bring demons periapts). Just try shooting something holy at him if you can. Rangers, striders and assassins can just bully Daimon via periapt and blast arrow spam. Really just aim for his chest face and turn him into a joke. That said, he's really only good for farming lvl3 weapons and armour, also a hand full of materials which only he drops. All in all I really enjoyed this... Easter special? Huh, close enough.
Ayy Boneman! Holy smokes thank you, because the truth is I intend to take on Daimon 2 with warrior haha! And pummelling his head was mostly how I did it both times. I always shy away from using consumables because I feel cheaty, but yeah in this instance I will take your advice and save up the vims and a few other buffs. Because he slaps me about so much rofl. I've heard about the unique materials but not so much the weapons, I think I'll mostly be after him to cap off the videos haha. I struggle with farming in games, even in Monster Hunter as much as I love that. Thanks again for coming back to watch my video and leaving kind words + really helpful advice! I appreciate it and I'm gonna remember all this for when I face him head on :D and yeee it's basically easter right now yo.
I really hope DD2 is actually complete. It's amazing how much awesome they managed to pack into a game they couldn't actually finish. As a chronic procrastinator I got a bunch of spoilers from this unfortunately. XD
Thanks for coming to watch my new video Kebabs, I appreciate it! Thank you! And aw man THAT is something I really didn't even think about. I am really sorry, I'm gonna amend the description immediately on that one so people see it. I tell ya I got off the tail end of reviewing Pathfinder doing this and that was a game I spent days agonising over what to talk about and I think after that I rolled into DD thoughtlessly. I'm really sorry about that, that's the last time I do a video without at least some warning of spoilers. You're right as well, the game is loaded with lore and adventure despite all the cutbacks, there's a lot of respect to be had for the development team. I think with the homeruns Capcom has hit lately, DD2 will be at the very least, a solid game. I want to say thank you again for watching and taking the time to comment, and again I am sorry about the spoilers that is my bad.
One of the things that I love and hate about dragon's dogma is that the very last sequence of what happened with your pawn becoming you can so very easily get lost over your head if you don't do some specific questlines. It's painfully easy to miss learning about the concept of the bestowal of spirit.
I won't lie, I missed a lot in this game but I thought I followed the main story pretty well. And I had no idea what was happening there at all, so it makes sense it's explained in some of the game's obscure quests haha! I also wanna say thank you for taking the time to watch my video and leave a comment, I really do appreciate it. Especially for bringing this point up as at the time I thought t was just me not understanding the scene very well.
@@reallylatereviews hey thanks for making it. It's folks like you and your continued interest in the series that brought the franchise back and led to DD2. Odds are Capcom's going to be more willing to go all out rather then forcing major cuts due to the love it's getting from so many folks.
@@fang4223 Thank you! That's honestly lovely to hear. And you're right, Capcom has been really scoring points lately so I think now is the perfect time to deliver high with DD2.
I looked it up and ya know what it's not what I was expecting haha! But the art looks great and I see so many gold coins piled on the floor and I like that. That game got firebreathing dogs too wtf Thank you for name dropping this game because I've never heard of it! And thanks for stopping to watch my video and leave a comment, I appreciate it! Thank you!
Hey, I know that these videos don't get a lot of views but I want you to know that you're making those people that watch it really happy that you're making content for it. Thank you! P.S. you need to watch some build videos or guides because the builds you're using really suck, xoxo.
ROFL my builds man I'm not building anything I tell ya But I can't tell you how much your comment warmed my heart. I started work on the 'final' Dragons Dogma video last year and I just got so sidetracked. The truth is I lost heart while playing, assassin didn't really vibe with me and the momentum was just lost multiple times. But you've inspired me to at least edit what I've got and put out one more video. I've got a few projects and real life on the burner at the moment but I'll try and get the halloween special out before halloween. Thank you, for real. I'm not fussed about view counts not really. About 10% of viewers make it to the end and I make my videos for that 10% ya know? So I will keep doing it. Thank you for watching, and for leaving kind words. I say it a lot but I really do appreciate it.
Your Videos are great. What's gonna be the next video theme? A hot summer special (released in autume), where you melt down P-D BBI with solo Assassin?
Neon ayyyy! You joke but I might have something planned haha. But I really want to tackle phase 2 Daimon with my warrior, I know it feels a bit anticlimactic not to showoff post-daimon with one of the two vocations I'm showcasing, so I'll figure something out :P But I am looking forward to recording the halloween special for assassin yeah! On time for sure Also I want to say, thank you! It's lovely to hear my videos are well received, so thank you for coming back to watch and take the time to comment!
I'm excited for the game but fearful for my brain. 3 months until we're all told to mind the edge and their type dislikes fire or something. (Thankyou as well for watching and commenting! I appreciate it :D )
Ayyyy! First of all thanks for coming back to watch Lymarra hope you're doing good! And thank you, I worried about doing the vocations justice, I just hope I didn't rag on them too much! Yeah I can't believe I almost missed the magic shotgun, it's just too much fun.
Silver chest plate combined with pauldrons would match the red sonja cover art. Summery pareo is a close fit for the art on the left. Not sure about boots and gloves. Maybe wizarding gloves/boots.
Holy smokes okay this is the endgame stuff we care about. I will look into getting these for the future! Looking the part is what matters haha! The pareo is a really good call as well I never thought of that and I have two already Thank you! For stopping to watch my video and taking the time to think of these great suggestions, it's easy to miss gear like the silver chestplate if you don't know where to look. So thank you and I'll be sure to check them out. I also want to say thank you for answering Dotun's question about the carry weight mod. I responded to them in their other comment so it did look like I straight up ignored them rofl. But it really made me smile to see someone answer them, so thank you doubly so for that.
It sucks that you didn't mention the upgraded abilities from rings in BBI it makes everything stronger and the game didn't stay the same difficulty, you just got more skilled and stronger.
I tell ya man I thought about it, I mention the Grand Ingle but forgot to bring up the rings. It's a combination of forgetfulness and wanting to keep the video relatively tight. I cut out a few other things for runtime. You're right about the difficulty but the truth is, I just didn't enjoy that aspect, I wanted to have the Gransys overland get stronger with my character. I wanna say thank you as well for watching my videos and for stopping to comment! I really do appreciate it, so thank you! I'll be sure to bring up the rings in the Assassin video!
Ayyyy Chemicaalz! You were right about mystic knight it was worth going back for! I stumbled with it but I hope I did it justice. It's a great vocation and fun to play (after I dumped all my tank pawns haha) Thank you for coming back to watch my video, and stopping to leave a comment. I appreciate it, so thank you!
@@reallylatereviews Hahaha, glad you had some enjoyment as well! And yea, I never took any tank pawns because I figured they would be in the way of mah shield 🛡 Now we're left with the question... how is Dragon's Dogma 2 gonna get a "really late review"? xD
@@ChemicaaLz I don't blame you haha! Tank pawns always steal the thunder! And pfft by the time I finish reviewing it it'll be late anyway :P that'll be fine I'm sure!
I love this game so much, my first playthrough was as a sorcerer I spammed the living shit out of high maelstrom, was it the most effective way to play? no. Did I have a blast and it looked sick? abso-fucking-lutely yes.
rofl, see you say that, but for me the only way I stood a chance in BBI was running with maelstrom. I can't believe how badly I misjudged magic. I think spamming tornadoes is a good way to play first time purely for spectacle I wanna say thank you as well for coming to watch another of my videos and taking the time to comment on both It's really lovely to see and makes me want to make more videos. Thank you!
Tell me about it I can't believe there's not a bigger prompt for this in game. I nearly missed it even though I was told about the mechanic. We should get coupons in DD2 or something for time lost. (I wanna say thank you as well for watching my video, for commenting, and for sharing my frustration with the game's primary ox. Thank you!)
Aw you know what. This feels like a big oversight. I tell you it's hard to catch everything in DD because it really is just so vast. I will do my best to remember this and pop in a highlight for my next video because climbing over someone while on fire sounds great. I'm gonna add thank you for commenting and taking the time out of your day to watch my vid! Even though I missed out the best move. I'll rectify it! Thank you again!
ahm, hardmode IS harder than normal mode. Its just you are overleveld for the starting mobs, but compared to normal mode enemies those ARE indeed stronger
Ayyy before I agree with ya, I did consider that and I'd have hoped that hard mode and new game plus together would stack to challenge me a little. I was disappointed but you are also correct, hard mode would be more difficult if I was normal level. I still think it coulda been harder though! I want to say thank you as well for watching my video, for commenting and for pointing this out because it's an oversight on my part. Thank you!
@@reallylatereviews Hard Mode only increases the damage you take and how much stamina you consume, as well as enemy stagger resistance of all things. They don't get more HP or so, which is why Hard Mode is actually easier in NG if you know what you're doing, because you get so much more gold and XP heh.
@@MrLokhe Yeah it's kinda a let down in that regard, I'm at the point where most enemies have no HP, and a few enemies have way too much. But I won't say no to free money haha!
EDIT: Had to cut out some portions of this due to recent updates to Capcom games. Sorry!
So this is a little bit late for easter but I hope ya like it all the same. Thank you for your patience. If you have any requests, criticisms or vegetables to throw about Dragon's Dogma, now is the time as the next Dragon's Dogma video will be my absolute last. Until the Dragon's Dogma Online video. And the DD2 video. And the DD2 apology video. Have a great summer
Hey, this is really late reviews, right? I'd dare say you were quite early for Easter. 😂
@@abeldiaz3877 I'm just trying to stay on brand, honest rofl
I literally can't wait for your Dragon's Dogma 2 review, love your content!
Holy smokes thank you! I can't promise it'll be on time rofl, but I hope when it comes I can make a video that does the game justice.
I really appreciate ya taking the time to watch my videos and leave kind words. I say that a lot but it means a lot to me, and I hope I can keep making videos worth your time. Thank you!
Your team can act as an advance party on that ox cart escort quest. Mercedes and friends will stop walking if you’re too far from them. This allows you to attack all enemies on your path without having to worry about the cart & the soldiers. Return to Mercedes and they will resume walking. Some enemies (goblins, wolves, and bandits) will still spawn when you travel with the cart but at least there will be less.
Sorry for late reply I missed this the other day. I genuinely had no idea this was the case, coming from MMOs you either keep up with escort NPCs or they die rofl. So I thought we had to keep going. That does sound like such a good way to sort out the path ahead (but I won't lie I wanted that cart to move at warp speed)
Thank you for sharing this info, and for taking the time out of your day to watch my video, I really do appreciate it! Thank you!
Looking forward to your DD content. Subscribed for it.
As someone who's attempting solo runs of BBI straight after new game, I can say that Sorcerer owns the game with Maelstrom, Comestion, and Holy F*cking Focused Bolts. And the occasional Gicel for Banshees.
Ayyy Abeldiaz! Thanks for coming back again I really appreciate it and hope you're doing well! :D
Damn see that sounds like the sorcerer I got a taste of but a BBI solo run sounds really rough even with all that magical power. Although I can see Maelstrom helping a lot with being solo. I wish you good luck!
I repeat myself I guess but I wanna say thank you again for returning, it means a lot to me if someone likes my videos enough to come back. Thank you!
Whoah whoah whoah, there's an AFK experience farm? I gotta go find a video on that. EXP grind can be a bit of a bore if you don't want to go full blast powder sweat on death.
Great video, fun watch. Can't wait to finish binge watching your entire backlog during work this week!
Maaaaaan thank you I just seen your other comment. Thank you for subscribing and watching more of my videos. Thank you!
And yeah even if I wasn't playing to make videos, I think the experience farm is just essential. If you park yourself up on that wall after defeating the Dragon, endless guards will spawn and get mopped up by your pawns. Easy gold and exp. It's honestly wonderful you can't go wrong.
Always great to see you drop a new vid mate. Hope you’re doing well I know how much energy you put into these 😁
Ayyy Looney! Thank you my dude, hope you're doing well too! Yeah this was a real on and off one for a few months haha! But it was worth it I think, I had a lot of fun making this. Well after the starting slog but that's always Dragons Dogma haha!
Thank you for always supporting me and taking the time out of your day to do so. It helped push me to keep making them back in the early videos. Thanks man
Yeah no problem mate it’s always a blast to listen to your wit and jokes 😁 Yeah not doing too bad myself still waiting on updates but we’ve heard others have been receiving keys so shouldn’t be too long now. I need to jump back in before the sequel comes out and see about 100%ing it 🫣😅
@@MadnlooneyJR This is what we wanna hear ya know! Hope they do not keep you waiting long!
Oh goodness me, 100% of DD is no mean feat but I respect that immensely, I don't think I could manage that haha :D I like completing games but maybe a little too much repetition for me to 100% this one.
Oh damn, almost missed this video! I'm glad your channel randomly popped into my mind and i checked for new content.
As always, great and entertaining video! Thank you 😀
Keep it up and happy easter, haha.
Ayy J Dood! Thanks for coming back! Happy easter to you too :D
Glad ya liked it and thank you so much for your kind words, I really do appreciate it, so thank you!
Some of the best content in the dd community right here
Maaaaan I dunno what to say to that except thank you! I had no idea just what I was getting into when I posted my DD video, but I knew I wanted to try and do the game justice because it clearly deserves it. So to be able to make more videos and have people enjoy them is wonderful.
Thank you, for watching my video and for taking the time to leave kind words, I really appreciate it. Thank you!
@@reallylatereviews oh it's no problem bro I really mean it. I got into DD like 2 months ago and right now my UA-cam feed is pretty much you lmao
@@darthvader3725 Rofl oh damn, for that you have my sincerest apologies! Ah I'm just glad you're enjoying it honestly I couldn't ask for more! Thank you!
Love your side tangents about things. Reminds me of how I try to explain things to friends. lol
Watching this made me want to play DD again.
Haha! I mean it is the best way to explain anything, start on one thing and then talk about something else so I respect that! I can always support the decision to play DD so long as you know when to call it a day rofl, I think this game needs that as a warning on the back. Nah I love it
I also wanna say thank you for coming back to watch my video and again for stopping to comment. Thank you!
Love your videos my man. They are far from godawful. They are amazing and so much fun.
Ayyy Dotunfadairo! Thanks for coming back my dude! And thank you for your kind words, it's lovely to hear holy smokes. I just hope I can keep making good vids!
Also the weight cheat I did using dinput8.dll hooks from nexusmods. It hooks into the game and lets you change loads of things. I'll pop a link to it in the description, thanks for bringing it up actually as that's a good idea!
@@reallylatereviews Thank youuuuuu
Man I love your videos because it reminds me of my first playthrough and how I fell in love with this game
Thank you! Holy smokes, for watching and commenting, and watching my other videos too! I appreciate it and yeah, it's one of those games I think everyone has a 'playthrough story' of how they came to love the game haha. A magical journey
More Dragons Dogma from you?! Youre spoiling us man. also np on that escort quest haha. idk what my name shows up as now but im Grand Moff. Changed it to "Upsedriss" but on my end it's now showing as grand moff again but with numbers behind it instead 💀
Ayyyy dude thanks for coming back! Hope you're doing good! Yeah sorry about the names haha, when UA-cam changed everything it became a nightmare. Channel names don't match up with commenter names, and commenter names on videos are different to those in my creator studio. I've seen comments with 3 different names attached to them depending on when they name changed, it's very confusing rofl
I really appreciate your helpful advice as well, you saved me hours of time. And I gotta say it, thank you! For watching my video, and taking the time to leave yet more kind words, it means a lot to me so thank you!
@@reallylatereviews no problemo man, video was enjoyable and entertaining as per usual. saved you hours eh? maybe Im brainfarting but I only really recall the escort quest comment and while thats long thats certainly not hours haha. so im not 100% sure what youre referfering to, maybe i missed something. Glad to see you still enjoy the game despite its issues. Playing BBI as sorcerer as I'm typing this, 900+ hours played now.
Hey listen nah listen, that ain't it. If I had to do that escort quest legit, I was turning that game off for the night rofl. This saved me hours of real time and I got to keep playing thanks to your advice, good shoutout haha! It still takes the better part of an hour without kicking the Ox, it feels that way anyway. 900+ holy shit that's some serious DD time. I don't think I will ever hit that playtime but I think after coming back again and again, I can see the appeal of doing so. It really is a game you can just sink into and adventure, and that's a very rare thing.
@@reallylatereviews indeed it is :) and for any future plays pick up the Ring of Preseverance on BBI either with a moonbeam gem or a barrel glitch, thats like +25% discipline gain (skills and vocation level), repeat on hard mode and you got two of em, doubles the discipline. really speeds stuff up a whole lot.
also looking forward to the next one and any potential online or 2 video in the fufure. keep it up man 👍
@@Upsedriss I just missed the ring that stops the lantern from going out all the time rofl, but I will keep an eye out for this ring as well, thank you!
Such a pleasant surprise seeing this on my feed. The video was super awesome, which by now should not come as a surprise. And you've got even more Dragon's Dogma videos on the way, I couldn't be happier.
Ayyy Julius thanks for coming back! Hope you're doing good! Thank you for watching and for your comment, holy smokes and honestly I just hope I can keep making videos that live up to your kind words!
Yeah I think some more DD is coming hehe no timeframe though, I'll pace it out between other videos most likely :D
@@reallylatereviewsno matter when, I'll definitely be here when the next video comes. Wouldn't miss your Dragon's Dogma arc for anything.
@@JuliusCaesar103 Maaaaaaaan, thank you!
Ayyye really late reviews, thank you for making the content you do.
Genuinely so comforting and soothing listening to your voice!
Thanks for making my days better.
Ayyyy Subway hope you're doing good! Thank you! I wouldn't be making these without the positive stuff I get to read, so it genuinely makes my day. To tell you the truth I sit through these so many times, when these go up I am always sick of the sound of my own voice rofl! But to get to know I've put smiles on at least a few faces haha! It's wonderful, thank you for your kind words!
Also thanks for the shoutout about the sphinx :D
How and why do you have so few subscribers!? Loved this video as always. Keep at it, your content is fantastic.
First of all, thank you for coming back Someonebritish, hope you're doing good and thank you for the kind words. I'm gonna keep at it as best I can!
And ya know what I am pretty happy with my subscribers haha! I get to recognise people coming back and respond to lots of comments, so I am happy! Thank you again!
I've had this game since it released on the Xbox 360 and have replayed it I don't know how many times . . . and I never knew you could make the ox during the escort mission bolt like that . . . I'm over here internally screaming, lol.
Rofl, aw I swear this game is like an onion. There's more under each layer, every time. I'm sorry you had to wait this long for the ox reveal because I can only imagine the pain of that quest over and over without the speed boost haha!
Aw shit well I am grateful as well, thank you for coming to watch my video and taking the time to comment. I really appreciate it, thank you!
Man the original base game tittle screen sound track also fit the game so well, BZ into free - dangan
I love that theme, it's criminal they didn't leave it on rotation or something in the menu. Could have easily had those themes switch on startup.
I also wanna thank you for watching! And for commenting, I appreciate it! Thank you!
The legend returns! Glad to see ya back and living up to your channel name X'D
Glad for my Easter gift in July 😂
Honestly excited for your thoughts on Dragon's dogma 2
Ayyy Cyclone! Hope you're doing well! Yeee I gotta keep things a little late haha, easter just getting started!
I tell ya I am excited to play Dragon's Dogma 2 as well! Hopefully I can make a video worth your time about it.
Thanks for coming back as well to watch my video, I say this a lot but I really appreciate it and especially as it's partially your fault I came back at all haha! So thank you!
@reallylatereviews ahahaha! Glad to hear I'm partially at fault for this. But yeah I always look forward to your stuff. It's just nice to see a fresh take as well as you have such a great way of going about a balance of humor and just honest opinion in your video. It's a nice change of pace from the cookie cutter youtube style.
Also I know you mentioned trying out the other vocations and dabbled a bit with the ranger class. I'm gonna say right now 10 fold flurry and corkscrew are my favorite abilities to use. Especially if you combo them with arrow types such as blast for 10 fold or petrified with corkscrew.
Wanna finely show death what you're made of? Grab yourself a ton of blast arrows and stack on top with 4 Conqueror's Periapt. Watch any bosses health bar just drop like flies.
@@cyclone327 I've stayed away from the arrow types purely because the UI makes me want to scream but I tell ya for ranger I will brave it because arrow items seem like a massive part of that vocation, whereas they never got mentioned as hard for magick archer.
This is all good advice, thank you! I'm gonna come back to this when I record the video and make sure I demonstrate this! Hopefully I can take on death at last haha!
And maaaaan thank you! I try to do my thing, I worry about cluttering my channel with fun video ideas because I dunno if anyone wants that. If stuff works I'll do more like this outside the reviews, but it'll always be inbetween reviews rather than a replacement. Thank you again!
I just wanted to add that I beated the game few weeks ago and my waifu was selene wich was a pawn and became human and by the end of the end in the last cinematic she mentioned that we (the arisen) sacrified ourself for our pawn to live just like the master of selene. So she'll knew that you're not the real arisen and I found it so cool. And sorry for my bad english not my native language.
Oh holy shit so she would have filled the player in on what went down? That's crazy! I like that. Thanks for bringing that up because someone else said more side quests helped explain this. Game is nuts with it's hidden lore. You speak English really well, do not even apologise. I wouldn't have even known if you hadn't told me :D
Thank you again for sharing this and for watching my video as well! I really appreciate it, so thank you!
It's great to see you uploading a new video. Love the way you describe how you experience video games. While this game has many flaws, I don't think there is anything like it in the gaming space at the moment which explains the game's cult following. Certainly looking forward to DD2 and watching your video about it.
First of all thanks for coming back to watch my new video and leave kind words, I really do appreciate it (even if I say that a few times haha!)
I couldn't agree more about DD, on the surface it's easy to think it's similar to other games, but it really is one of a kind when you get into it. That unique magic helps it no end. And holy smokes, thank you! I just hope my video on DD2 lives up to the game haha! Thank you!
You are very good and entertaining sir, I'm glad I found your channel, had to play Bloodrayne again because of you. Be nice to see an Assassin class video in the future if you're still on the mood, keep up the good work!
Ayyy I hope you enjoyed Bloodrayne after another playthrough haha! And thank you so much for your kind words and for watching as well! I really do appreciate it, so thank you! Rest assured an assassin video will be coming eventually :D
I bought the game and played about 20 hours. But I stopped because my pawns always die and I got to revive them and the climbing onto big monsters is hard and not my cup of tea. But I really enjoyed your video and I might play the game again soon. I dont play online which is fine for me. I also hope Dd2 will have more pc friendly mouse and keyboard controls. Skyrim is fun and I have played alot on PC but its becomes a chore with the controls. Im looking forward to more content from you!
First of all, thank you for coming back Daba to watch my video and leave kind words, hope you're doing well! And I hope I can keep making videos worth your time!
Secondly, I get that I really do. For a long time I had a staff on my main pawn called Legion's Might, this let my own mage resurrect herself every time she died. It saved me a lot of headaches. I think you either love the monster climbing or not. I do love it, but sometimes I'm left with very little reason to do so. And once you're up there you can only bonk the creature so it's a system that has a lot of room for improvement.
I hope DD2 will be better, and as you said better for PC users - recent Capcom games have had really good mouse + keyboard support so I bet they will do!
And yeah Skyrim is great I love it. You are right as well, the age of the controls/UI is showing now, but it's kept younger by mods.
Amazing video! Keep it up and it's good to see you keep enjoying and discovering more about the game. You're making me want to experience the game once more but i forgot where i got a mod for character skin to look good and scars to look meaningful (i'm too picky for it lmao)
Happy slightly belated easter as well and I'm looking forward to what you can give us in the future!
Ayyy happy easter to you too! And thank you for watching my video and your really kind words! It really means a lot to me so thank you!
And I get that haha, the only mods I've installed are the Dinky compilation from nexus which mostly provides cleaner textures. You're right about the scars, I found with the default skin they didn't stand out very well at all
Daimons 2nd form is something you need to prepare for.
It's a slog for melee classes, the only real viable strategy for Warrior and Fighter is to pop liquid vim, climb on top of Daimons head, pop 4 conqueror's periapt and pummel him until he tries to burn you alive. This will likely throw you off, which means, you need to pop another liquid vim and repeat what you just did.
Mythic Knight can use holy great cannon shenanigans in combination with 4 demons periapt.
Mages and Magic archers are usually fine (if they bring demons periapts). Just try shooting something holy at him if you can.
Rangers, striders and assassins can just bully Daimon via periapt and blast arrow spam. Really just aim for his chest face and turn him into a joke.
That said, he's really only good for farming lvl3 weapons and armour, also a hand full of materials which only he drops.
All in all I really enjoyed this... Easter special? Huh, close enough.
Ayy Boneman! Holy smokes thank you, because the truth is I intend to take on Daimon 2 with warrior haha! And pummelling his head was mostly how I did it both times. I always shy away from using consumables because I feel cheaty, but yeah in this instance I will take your advice and save up the vims and a few other buffs. Because he slaps me about so much rofl. I've heard about the unique materials but not so much the weapons, I think I'll mostly be after him to cap off the videos haha. I struggle with farming in games, even in Monster Hunter as much as I love that.
Thanks again for coming back to watch my video and leaving kind words + really helpful advice! I appreciate it and I'm gonna remember all this for when I face him head on :D and yeee it's basically easter right now yo.
I really hope DD2 is actually complete. It's amazing how much awesome they managed to pack into a game they couldn't actually finish. As a chronic procrastinator I got a bunch of spoilers from this unfortunately. XD
Thanks for coming to watch my new video Kebabs, I appreciate it! Thank you! And aw man THAT is something I really didn't even think about. I am really sorry, I'm gonna amend the description immediately on that one so people see it. I tell ya I got off the tail end of reviewing Pathfinder doing this and that was a game I spent days agonising over what to talk about and I think after that I rolled into DD thoughtlessly.
I'm really sorry about that, that's the last time I do a video without at least some warning of spoilers.
You're right as well, the game is loaded with lore and adventure despite all the cutbacks, there's a lot of respect to be had for the development team. I think with the homeruns Capcom has hit lately, DD2 will be at the very least, a solid game.
I want to say thank you again for watching and taking the time to comment, and again I am sorry about the spoilers that is my bad.
One of the things that I love and hate about dragon's dogma is that the very last sequence of what happened with your pawn becoming you can so very easily get lost over your head if you don't do some specific questlines. It's painfully easy to miss learning about the concept of the bestowal of spirit.
I won't lie, I missed a lot in this game but I thought I followed the main story pretty well. And I had no idea what was happening there at all, so it makes sense it's explained in some of the game's obscure quests haha!
I also wanna say thank you for taking the time to watch my video and leave a comment, I really do appreciate it. Especially for bringing this point up as at the time I thought t was just me not understanding the scene very well.
@@reallylatereviews hey thanks for making it. It's folks like you and your continued interest in the series that brought the franchise back and led to DD2.
Odds are Capcom's going to be more willing to go all out rather then forcing major cuts due to the love it's getting from so many folks.
@@fang4223 Thank you! That's honestly lovely to hear. And you're right, Capcom has been really scoring points lately so I think now is the perfect time to deliver high with DD2.
Ahh dragons dogma,
The greatest sequel to d&d shadow over mystara I could hope for.
I looked it up and ya know what it's not what I was expecting haha! But the art looks great and I see so many gold coins piled on the floor and I like that. That game got firebreathing dogs too wtf
Thank you for name dropping this game because I've never heard of it! And thanks for stopping to watch my video and leave a comment, I appreciate it! Thank you!
You can do the lady bandit quest by putting any dudes with you in lady’s clothes and I love it
Hey, I know that these videos don't get a lot of views but I want you to know that you're making those people that watch it really happy that you're making content for it. Thank you!
P.S. you need to watch some build videos or guides because the builds you're using really suck, xoxo.
ROFL my builds man I'm not building anything I tell ya
But I can't tell you how much your comment warmed my heart. I started work on the 'final' Dragons Dogma video last year and I just got so sidetracked. The truth is I lost heart while playing, assassin didn't really vibe with me and the momentum was just lost multiple times. But you've inspired me to at least edit what I've got and put out one more video. I've got a few projects and real life on the burner at the moment but I'll try and get the halloween special out before halloween.
Thank you, for real. I'm not fussed about view counts not really. About 10% of viewers make it to the end and I make my videos for that 10% ya know? So I will keep doing it. Thank you for watching, and for leaving kind words. I say it a lot but I really do appreciate it.
Your Videos are great.
What's gonna be the next video theme?
A hot summer special (released in autume), where you melt down P-D BBI with solo Assassin?
Neon ayyyy! You joke but I might have something planned haha. But I really want to tackle phase 2 Daimon with my warrior, I know it feels a bit anticlimactic not to showoff post-daimon with one of the two vocations I'm showcasing, so I'll figure something out :P
But I am looking forward to recording the halloween special for assassin yeah! On time for sure
Also I want to say, thank you! It's lovely to hear my videos are well received, so thank you for coming back to watch and take the time to comment!
3 more months, 3 more months, 3 more months, 3 more months
I'm excited for the game but fearful for my brain. 3 months until we're all told to mind the edge and their type dislikes fire or something.
(Thankyou as well for watching and commenting! I appreciate it :D )
@@reallylatereviews that's what cliffs are for my friend ;)
v o r e
All jokes aside, great look at MK and MA. The magic automatic shotgun is great.
Ayyyy! First of all thanks for coming back to watch Lymarra hope you're doing good! And thank you, I worried about doing the vocations justice, I just hope I didn't rag on them too much! Yeah I can't believe I almost missed the magic shotgun, it's just too much fun.
Silver chest plate combined with pauldrons would match the red sonja cover art. Summery pareo is a close fit for the art on the left. Not sure about boots and gloves. Maybe wizarding gloves/boots.
Holy smokes okay this is the endgame stuff we care about. I will look into getting these for the future! Looking the part is what matters haha! The pareo is a really good call as well I never thought of that and I have two already
Thank you! For stopping to watch my video and taking the time to think of these great suggestions, it's easy to miss gear like the silver chestplate if you don't know where to look. So thank you and I'll be sure to check them out.
I also want to say thank you for answering Dotun's question about the carry weight mod. I responded to them in their other comment so it did look like I straight up ignored them rofl. But it really made me smile to see someone answer them, so thank you doubly so for that.
It sucks that you didn't mention the upgraded abilities from rings in BBI it makes everything stronger and the game didn't stay the same difficulty, you just got more skilled and stronger.
I tell ya man I thought about it, I mention the Grand Ingle but forgot to bring up the rings. It's a combination of forgetfulness and wanting to keep the video relatively tight. I cut out a few other things for runtime. You're right about the difficulty but the truth is, I just didn't enjoy that aspect, I wanted to have the Gransys overland get stronger with my character.
I wanna say thank you as well for watching my videos and for stopping to comment! I really do appreciate it, so thank you! I'll be sure to bring up the rings in the Assassin video!
It is here!
Ayyyy Chemicaalz! You were right about mystic knight it was worth going back for! I stumbled with it but I hope I did it justice. It's a great vocation and fun to play (after I dumped all my tank pawns haha)
Thank you for coming back to watch my video, and stopping to leave a comment. I appreciate it, so thank you!
@@reallylatereviews Hahaha, glad you had some enjoyment as well! And yea, I never took any tank pawns because I figured they would be in the way of mah shield 🛡
Now we're left with the question... how is Dragon's Dogma 2 gonna get a "really late review"? xD
@@ChemicaaLz I don't blame you haha! Tank pawns always steal the thunder!
And pfft by the time I finish reviewing it it'll be late anyway :P that'll be fine I'm sure!
Oh and quick question: How do you turn the weight off, please?
Mods on PC, impossible on consoles
I love this game so much, my first playthrough was as a sorcerer I spammed the living shit out of high maelstrom, was it the most effective way to play? no. Did I have a blast and it looked sick? abso-fucking-lutely yes.
rofl, see you say that, but for me the only way I stood a chance in BBI was running with maelstrom. I can't believe how badly I misjudged magic. I think spamming tornadoes is a good way to play first time purely for spectacle
I wanna say thank you as well for coming to watch another of my videos and taking the time to comment on both It's really lovely to see and makes me want to make more videos. Thank you!
New videooo!!🎉
Ayyy Vulture! Thanks for coming back to watch, hope you're doing good and hope you enjoy the video too! Just in time for easter
@@reallylatereviewsyou never miss my brother... Loved the video❤❤
Keep up :P
Hope you're doing good too, all the best for you S2
I hope they put a monk vocation on the next game, it's all i need... Punch the living shit outta theze creaturezz
@@vul7ure_ Maaan thank you! I just hope I can keep making vids worth your time haha! I appreciate your kind words, I really do. Thank you!
You can kick the ox!? Dammit, so much time wasted in that escort mission.
Tell me about it I can't believe there's not a bigger prompt for this in game. I nearly missed it even though I was told about the mechanic. We should get coupons in DD2 or something for time lost.
(I wanna say thank you as well for watching my video, for commenting, and for sharing my frustration with the game's primary ox. Thank you!)
I missed it after 3 play through, we all good homie
Magic archer but no flaming climby boy with Immolation? Sad it’s my favorite ability.
Aw you know what. This feels like a big oversight. I tell you it's hard to catch everything in DD because it really is just so vast. I will do my best to remember this and pop in a highlight for my next video because climbing over someone while on fire sounds great.
I'm gonna add thank you for commenting and taking the time out of your day to watch my vid! Even though I missed out the best move. I'll rectify it! Thank you again!
ahm, hardmode IS harder than normal mode. Its just you are overleveld for the starting mobs, but compared to normal mode enemies those ARE indeed stronger
Ayyy before I agree with ya, I did consider that and I'd have hoped that hard mode and new game plus together would stack to challenge me a little. I was disappointed but you are also correct, hard mode would be more difficult if I was normal level. I still think it coulda been harder though!
I want to say thank you as well for watching my video, for commenting and for pointing this out because it's an oversight on my part. Thank you!
@@reallylatereviews Hard Mode only increases the damage you take and how much stamina you consume, as well as enemy stagger resistance of all things. They don't get more HP or so, which is why Hard Mode is actually easier in NG if you know what you're doing, because you get so much more gold and XP heh.
@@MrLokhe Yeah it's kinda a let down in that regard, I'm at the point where most enemies have no HP, and a few enemies have way too much. But I won't say no to free money haha!
