I Wished DD2 Was Released For 10 Years & Now I Wish It Never Happened.

[Heart-Tailed-Pikachu]

Firstly i bought this game day one on ps3 so i will go into detail why this game isnt worthy of being a sequel.

the title has to many bugs, glitches, performance issues that's further impacted by denuvo that does nothing but punish legit buyers.


Just like in the first game u will be mostly fighting small fry than big bosses. capcom made monster hunter so why cant this game be boss fight central? why is it like an option than a focus again? can you imagine playing monster hunter and the large ones arent the focus?

The customization of the classes from the first game was superior to this game. if u wanted to you could mix ANYTHING u wanted to even if it didnt make sense, but in the sequel its gone.

Some quest have a time limit again. nobody like this and wanted it gone. if u go to far into the quest line you will not be able to do it ever again. in DD2 there are bosses u can miss.

The lack of multiplayer that people want is stupid. people wanted this since the first game. The world, the bosses and the dynamic of it all screams multiplayer. Onc

.
Next is the map. the first game wasnt large by no means, but was sort of open but linear. in dragons dogma 2 its worst. all this land and you are stuck going down a linear path. why?the world is deceptively bigger.

It's probably better not to get so invested in games. Makes it harder to enjoy what we do get.

(I haven't been 'hyped' by a game in quite a while, and it's led to a lot more enjoyment of games. Not setting unrealistic expectations that then get dashed, for instance. /shrug)

DD2 just got RE3 Remake treatment, that's all.

"The customization of the classes from the first game was superior to this game. if u wanted to you could mix ANYTHING u wanted to even if it didnt make sense"

That's AI writing. Or psychosis.

As a guy who was looking forward to Ultima IX: Ascension... I say my empathy dude.

Sometimes creators and corporate structures just decide to push out a really, really bad game.

This one is only like 1/3rd bad. The problem is that still leaves DD1 as the better game in almost all regards - so it's really a wasted sequel.

Not that it couldn't be fixed - but it takes a heavy effort like No Man's Sky to have the humility to fix a game that much. And I've never seen a large company put that much effort into a 'finished' game.

Indeed - Bethesda spent all those years rereleasing Skyrim, and they never fixed even 2% of their base design decisions and flaws. They just rebuilt with large address awareness(then 64 bit), packed in a few community features, added someone's fishing mod pet project, and patted their back.

The underlying problem is if anyone picked up the project to fix it, there's a psychological effect of teams called the "not invented here syndrome" that makes anyone taking over a project want to dump just huge swaths of the work, rather than fix anything. The automatic drive is to reinvent and reconfigure every element.

Which makes fixing a game end up costing nearly the same as developing one from scratch.

Which always seemed odd to me - I've fixed a LOT of old code for large projects, and never had that instinct... but I think it's something big egos run into a lot.

Wasn't aware that this game had been released on PS3... I thought it was only PS5, XBox X/S, and PC

lol just noticed that, its the elusive dd2 postage stamp edition.
and how hed know if it were impacted by denuvo if he bought the ps5 version i'll never know.

DD1 was on PS3. It's easy to confuse the two games, since the title screen for DD2 just calls the game 'Dragon's Dogma' without the 2.

How dramatic.

112 hours in, still having fun.
