So, is the game good?

[dantemontecristo90]

besides the performance issues and so, is the game fun to play ? the fact that even with the issues there are like 177000 people playing still, makes me think it is, so can you please give me your opinions about the gameplay and how different it isfrom the previous one? i love the first one but im on the edge about geting it

Game is good. Performance is not, because of poor CPU optimization. And most improtant is that there is no "New game" button nor multiple save slots.

The gameplay is good. It's actually almost exactly like Dragon's Dogma 1. Nothing has changed apart from being a little more fluid and some QoL stuff like casted buffs not needing to travel to apply to npcs. If you liked Dragon's Dogma 1, this game is basically a soft remake of DD1.

game play is good, performance is bad, keybind options are bad, mouse options are bad, the potential of it banning you for deleting your save is bad, the micro transactions are just weird....

If you can get past the crash boss I'm sure it is.

[Sgt. Flaw]

Games awesome....only one save tho...

[EmperorVolo]

Ya it's really good feels like a single player MMO somehow if that makes any sense.

[xwize]

its a repetitive 7/10 if you ignore MTX and ♥♥♥♥ performance

if you count that stuff in, its like a 4.5 out of 10

Didn't the original had only one save slot? I get that there are other reasons to be unhappy with the gamer, but this was part of the original's design.

Yeah, the game itself is fantastic. Optimization, not so much lol.

I didn't have a problem with micro-stutters or crashing but it took me hours of tinkering to get it to where it wouldn't freeze up every 30 minutes without having to set the graphics to potato.

The game is fantastic.
Cities have major performance issues, some assume there are issues with NPC behavior / pathfinding choking out CPU's. Nothing that seems unpatchable.
Outside of that, i haven't even had a single FPS hitch so far.

It's pretty much an improved version of DD1 in all regards.

And i'd bet that it has to do with the Pawn system. They probably don't want to flood it with unnecessary dead low-level Pawns that aren't used anymore.
Not having a new game option was a weird choice though...and Capcom actually agreed

I never thought I would see the day where playing your $70 game more than once was unavailable, or more likely a future paid DLC

This game is going to make history for the depths of greed a publisher will sink to on behalf of micro transactions and paid DLC

Bro doesn't even own the game. All the MTX talk is hot air. It's a non-issue. The actual issue is optimisation.

There are a few issues but I have been fortunate enough to not encounter too many. The game is really amazing.

[TEKK3N]

The game is good.
Not Elden Ring or BG3 level, but pretty decent.

Though, considering it has microtransactions and performance issues, I'd wait until it goes on sales. Not worth it $70 IMO.
