Robert Cram, MSXbox World: "Dragon's Dogma isn't the perfect video game; I have to get that out there from the offset for anyone thinking it to be the holy grail of action adventure gaming - it's not. As Capcom's tentative foray into a realm not as popular as its more established franchises, the Japanese publisher adopts the styling of its Devil May Cry games, and dare I say Resident Evil, but opts to cast it into the dressings of a westernised role playing game to suit a more diligent set of gaming tastes. Whilst it might be easy to conduct this review in comparison to the likes of Bethesda's Elder Scrolls games, I think it's perhaps a bit premature to do so, and slightly unfair. You see, Dragon's Dogma is a game that offers some compelling gaming for those willing to overlook a few niggles along the way. It's a game that will perhaps tear at the wants and desires of those looking for an open world action game, and others wanting a fully fledged RPG with deep and engrossing story l...
Although the sequel is on the near horizon, the original Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen remains a fantastic action RPG, still worth playing.
Daman Shelley from NoobFeed writes - Dragon's Dogma is truly a one-of-a-kind game, and there really is no other game like it, but there are a few that come close. Whether with their fantasy settings, the ability to climb mountains, or just with the overall same charm as Capcom’s iconic RPG. Here's a list of games that will hopefully scratch that Dragon's Dogma itch.
I can still hear the title screen music in my head after nearly 12 years. Loved every minute of it.
I have no issues filling my time til DD2.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink, Infinite Wealth and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will probably me more than enough.
More terrified I won't be done in time.
Try not to burn yourself out before the game releases. This is going to be a long and immersive RPG like the first one.
The games in this article are all great and I believe the people who are excited for Dragons Dogma 2 probably already played most of those games.
For now, I recommend you prepare yourself for long play sessions if you will be picking up Dragons Dogma at launch.
Dragon’s Dogma achieved its highest concurrent player count in over six years over the weekend.
Excellent game spoilt by grindy combat and no fastbtravel the stones travel system was rubbish
I'm doing my part to contribute to this. Found out my pawn had been a busy bee while I was away.
when i found this game i loved it and played the hell out of it, got to the demon in the expansion and after feeling pretty good at the game he wiped the floor with me, fatigue set in, but i need to get back into this i think, looking forward to 2 for sure.
Very informative, fair review.
