Why do people hate on this game so much?
Honestly, why does this game get so much hate? I don't get it. Is it because it doesn't have anything like Bitter Black Island? Is that really why it gets so much hate? If DDDA never existed would you all still ♥♥♥♥ all over the game for little to no reason?

People are just disappointed. They wanted much more and got a product which was released too early. Then you have the default Capcom move with unnecessary microtransactions, performance problems in the beginning and instead of a harder mode they released a casual mode.

I love this game but some critics are earned and I don’t deny that. I hope it gets better in the future, and people forget their disappointment and get content from Capcom which they will love.

I mean I don't think people should really give the game ♥♥♥♥ because of the microtransactions. You don't even have to buy any of them. Yeah when companies do that its stupid, but in this case (from what I have read) you can get all the MTs in game.

I just think its a little weird because if the game still plays and feels like DD, then why the hate? Even if its just an 'upgraded' DD, is that so bad? I mean sure they did do away with some vocations which sucks.

I loved the first one and I am very tempted to get DD2 during this sale.

People don't hate this game so much. It's more about feeling somewhat incomplete. It's a complaint in the hope of it improving not hate.

I hate it because of the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ frame rates.

The true endgame is this games version of bitter black island. Granted you are on a time limit to save as many people as you can and kill bosses.

Micro transactions do not have a place in a single player game in the first place. Still for whatever reason they decided to add them even if they barely have any purpose. So people should give the developers a hard time because of that. They open themselves up for that criticism so feel free to give it to them. Besides that they really did add micro transactions just check the *DLC* content.

In the beginning some people wrote that they are necessary and people which don’t own it believed that. The other thing is if a game has so many microtransactions on the store page it has a scary effect and gives the wrong *vibes*. People just don’t waste time getting the correct information.

I don’t know why some DDDA fans hate it so much, I would just guess they see this product and it feels less complete as DDDA which has a hard mode, has a kind of end content. I am not in the position to judge that because I never played DDDA. The one thing which I always read is too few enemy variants, that is too easy and the main quest seems worser as for DDDA. Which goes back to my beginning statement, people are disappointed because they hoped for a better DDDA version and got a half-baked version of it. I don’t think most people played DD before DDDA.

Edit: I should not forget that the game had no New Game as it got released, so this was also criticized. Honestly, this was a very bad design which got revoked.

The hate of this game stems from a few things.
1: The demanding hardware requirements caught many players off-guard. Many players have technical issues running the game and channel their frustration outward.
2: New games that have any kind of bumpy release attract the most toxic, bridge-dwelling trolls in the internet. In the past few years, angry nerds have realized that voicing relentless negativity can sometimes elicit a response from developers.
3: People often behave like sheep, absorbing popular opinions without question. Social media amplifies this herd mentality, and influencers eagerly exploit any hype—positive or negative—to generate views, creating a cesspool of vitriol for their followers.

Its not as major a step forward as we might have hoped, but it is a damn good game and I've been having a blast playing it.

It's not worst game of the year, but surely is the biggest dissapointment of the year, specially if you played Dark Arisen.

I have played Dark Arisen and it's one of my favorite games this year.

If that's your peak disapointment, you must have been living a very sheltered life. I mean, even Test Drive Solar Crown was just a few months ago.

Played a ton of DA and 2 has been a great game. It evokes an adventurous feeling that most modern RPGs fail to provide for me. The biggest disappointment was the lack of evolution and the lack of hard mode. I understand that people liked DA but DD1 was already fun without it, the obsession with an "end game" is lost on me.

Dd1 already had a decent endgame prior to the expansion because of the ur dragon and the rare loot in the endgame dungeon.

Dark arisen just added a layer of super hard content on top of that but dumped keeping the ur dragon relevant because the da gear was super powerful and mostly trivialize that fight.
