    They are still 100% working on something big, because the patches contain changes to the format of the assets, breaking many mods, specially anything PAK, all of those broke, they wouldn't do any of that if they were winding down the game (why would you setup this if you wont use it?), also there have been almost daily activity on the test branches of the game, visible in steamDB, again, why would they work so much in these branches if they wont do anything major? what are they building up to? clearly they are building up to something. In my opinion, they will announce a DLC AFTER Monster Hunter Wilds, not before that. I know this because I've been trying to mod this game and stopped until they finish patching because is getting ridiculous the amount of fixing we need to do with every update.

      Curious whats there to mod thats worth modding??? not much to really do since the over all game was hyped for no reason than it seemed the devs could care less about it , the over all game needed a patch to work and be stable and still does...... is this going to be like the first game where it takes awhile or years to get to a good point of playability and fun?

      Have any mods to bring the skills/spells up to 6 instead of being stuck with 4? Have not played the game since launch. And the further i got in the madder i got at the studio for tightening the belt in that area. Thought it would be something i would just get used to, but every time i got a new spell or what have you, i just got angry and remembered how i was kitted to fight a variety of enemies tactically rather than fighting all enemies the same way

    Why criticize the game for not having an expansion yet? Dark Arisen came out like a year after the original game. At that rate we wouldn't only get it like Q1 of 2025 at the earliest. If that was happening, sure we may have had a teaser or somehting but maybe they want to put more into it/this game is bigger and more work to add to. I don't mind if it takes them like a year and a half, or something, this time. A reveal, without a date, would be nice for The Game Awards. 8 million in like 12 years, followed by 2.5 million in like a year is a massive jump for the series and that's awesome for the team. They did say, after DD2's release, that Dragon's Dogma is entering the higher tier of priority IP. With the likes of Monster Hunter, Street Fighter, DMC, Resident Evil, etc. So we'll have to see what they do with it in the future. If they are viewing it so highly, they must have things planned. Unless Losing the man behind it has hindered those plans. We'll have to see. Itsuno is the father of Dragon's Dogma, it was his dream game to make and I guess he felt that DD2 escaped the limitations of the first game and so he's proud of it. He also ran DMC since he took over mid way in DMC2. I know DMC2 isn't looked at fondly but depending on when he got in, it's not really on him. If you want to judge him for DMC, positively or negatively, look at DMC 3 through 5. He saw those games through in their entirety.
    If memory serves, all hope for a good spiritual successor to his games is lost now. Sadly, he's in Tencent now so they will likely ruin anything he tries to do. Maybe he'll regret leaving Capcom very soon.

    *The Hieracosphinx*
    Dragon's Dogma 2 new enemy concept & mission.
    Location: Bakbattahl.
    Mission description: The enemies of Empress Nadinia have sabotaged the Flamebearer Palace's Sacred Fire in an attempt to turn the citizenry against her. To reignite the Flame, the Arisen must venture into the underground depths and retrieve a piece of hot ember from the Eternal Pool.
    NPC companion: Menella
    Underneath the Mercantile Ward, the Residential Ward, and the Battahl Morgue region, there are extensive subterranean spaces. These provide the citizens a defensive refuge, a place for living, storage cellars, shops, and watering and drainage channels. All of these additional areas are accessible.
    Hidden deep beneath the underground parts of the city, a long and narrow passageway leads to a gigantic chamber below the Flamebearer Palace. Therein one might encounter a dormant creature said to safeguard the Sacred Fire. If the Eternal Pool of flames is disturbed, the Hieracosphinx awakens.
    It has the head of a falcon and the body of a cat. Its fur is white, as are the display feathers around its front limbs and head. Its beak and claws are golden, and it wears golden ancient Egyptian style armor pieces adorned with glowing green jewels. Unlike the other Sphinx, it lacks wings, and it does not speak. It's slightly smaller than a Chimera; a more slender, graceful built, higher agility, with powerful slashing attacks.
    The beast can use the power of the Sacred Flame to cast a variety of magickal assaults that are quite formidable. E.g. Afterimage; the sphinx creates clones of itself as it leaps around the battlefield, making it difficult to target the actual enemy. Deathbeam; the sphinx fires a concentrated beam of super heated (green) fire from its eyes.
    Its Magick Defense, Elemental and Debilitation Resistance are high, but it's weak against heavy physical blows. So it would be very weak against Fighter & Warrior, and to a lesser degree against Thief, Archer & Mystic Spearhand, but strong against Mage, Sorcerer & Magick Archer. Trickster might be useful, though. Due to the sphinx' agility and elusiveness, hitting it with strong attacks from a Fighter or Warrior could prove problematic.
    If bested, it expires in a turquoise blaze, leaving the Arisen a unique reward to collect. The Hieracosphinx will eventually reanimate after 14 in-game days.

I feel confident Itsuno delivered a dlc and Capcom is just waiting on the best announcement / release window with the least Monster Hunter Wilds conflict.

    The only thing that I want from this game is a reason to come back and play it. Adding an easier difficulty does not do anything for me or other players seeking a more challenging experience and honestly that's decision still baffles me. Hopefully they make an announcement for hard mode or DLC or both sooner rather than later cuz I would love the opportunity to jump back into the game but need that reason to.

    I don't need a hard mode, but I don't play easy mode. This playthrough I have 3 calm thief pawns and I'm just playing support casting stuff like smoke shroud, celerity, and empyrean. It's been pretty fun watching them shred- and seeing how long it takes to kill stuff. In my opinion of course. :) If you want something new- the warfarer meister went with me two separate playthroughs to kill the sphinx. He was at my house when I went for the amphora guy and tele'd there with us. I haven't seen any other players comment about that happening.

    Every time I talk about DD2, and give my honest opinion, it boils down to "it doesn't live up to the first, but only because I'm thinking of Dark Arisen. If I compare base game to base game, they're equal, which is good." A DLC that does for 2 what Dark Arisen did for 1 is gonna take time. It absolutely will not release in less than a year after launch, as many have pointed out. I've got lots of other games to keep me busy until it's ready, I'm sure other people do too, everyone needs to quit stressing.

    I really enjoyed the game, the main story seemed to end kind of abruptly but I did all the side stuff and ended up playing through it 3 times. It is kind of crazy the gameplay is the strongest point of the game yet that’s not enough for some. A harder mode or new game+ would have been nice, I hope the series will continue but that seems unlikely, I am thankful we got the 2 games.

    My theory; the publisher as a whole wants to make DD3 for full retail price out of what that dev meant the DLC to be. Which is why he left. Hence the little to no communication with the public. They need years to do a full release versus talking to audiences and feeling the waters.

      It’s because of the leak. It also shows resident evil 9(oddly named X), monster hunter wilds, an expansion for monster hunter wilds called cataclysm, and an expansion for dragons dogma 2 that was supposed to release on the 29th this month.
      The leak, imho, is fake af. They have the date wrong for wilds release date. A missing expansion for dragons dogma. No mention of drdr, though you could argue it’s not part of their platinum title lineup but I’d argue that dragons dogma wasn’t exactly a platinum title to begin with. Resident evil 9 has yet to be announced.

  • @red-merlin
    @red-merlin Місяць тому +1

    I stopped playing halfway thru the game and it has everything to do with the lack of skill slots. Being stuck with only 4 skills you can use at any given time just hurts the game. 6 was always too slim in the first game. Having only 4 skills or spells just turns the game into a repetitive slog cuz you don't have enough skills/spells to be strategic. You can't really gear up to face different scenarios or have spells that are perfect for certain enemies. Instead you pick stuff that work's well enough together and just use the same combos against EVERYTHING. Some enemy's fall fast to your kit. Others are quite resistant to it. But the battle loop just never changes unless your getting bored seeing the same stuff over and over...like i was. I might jump back in someday. I'd definitely hop on if they at least raised it back up to 6 spells, but honestly it should have always been more than that to begin with. But I'm not interested otherwise. Lack of DLC doesn't bother me because i find the game lacking overall
    But it was fun for what it's worth. Still fondly remember going after an ogre, frame rate dropping to 15 fps cuz a griffin crashed the party, and then having to overcome the chaos lol.

    The thing with Casual mode though is that it's not really "Casual mode"... combat is still the exact same. It's more like 'cheaper economy' for the people who spam Ferrystones/inns and some small QoL. So if you got a 'Harder mode' on that sense it would just be making economy rougher and with less QoL while combat remains the same.

Yeah, pretty lazy lol.
    It's like they started moving forward with Dark Arisen, more so with the MMO, which would have been nice to see more stuff from the MMO put into DD2, then they take steps back with DD2. One of the things I hope they do with the mage, is remove focused bolt, and give it built in Halidom, so it has a free slot to put another spell in.

    It boggles my mind that people are getting so aggressively pouty about the lack of DLC. A) If the company hasn't explicitly stated they'll be producing it on X date, there's no obligation to make it by some random time frame, and B) DLC are cancer. We SHOULD be demanding a feature complete game for the original retail price INCLUDED in the original purchase.
    I haven't followed this game, so I have no idea if it was offered or not, but I remember how much shit Larian got for not producing a full DLC expansion, when they stated BEFORE full release that there would NEVER be paid DLC. It's just bizarre to me that people want to pay MORE money for already exorbitantly priced games.
    I do need to try this game though. I'm glad it doesn't have DLC, I've just been waiting to hear it's complete and as bug free as possible.

Wilds is coming out soon they would never release or announce anything close to monster hunter not only do they have all hands on deck with it especially since they need people who know how to work the REengine but it’d be pretty dumb to release something so close to wilds and tank the sales on one or the other.
