Dragon's Dogma: Why Aren't You Talking About This Game?!

Do you like Monster Hunter? Do you like Demon’s Souls? Ever wonder what would happen if they both went to a party, had a few too many drinks, and had a wondrously passionate night of fictional drunken sex? And then afterwards, Monster Hunter got pregnant and pressured Demon’s Souls to take responsibility for the child? And, after a begrudging shotgun ceremony courtesy of Capcom, a game-child was born a bloody screaming painful birth, wrenched from the loins of Monster Hunter?

Ever wonder if this analogy had gone on long enough?

After everything that Capcom has done the last few years, I shouldn't be okay with this...

...but I am

FACTUAL evidence4766d ago

Dam looks incredible! I'll get it lol.

jc485734766d ago

yea, but I was hoping to see a Breath of Fire game, but this is different. At least they didn't show DmC to piss fans off.

ComboBreaker4765d ago (Edited 4765d ago )

But I have a feeling the storyline will suck.

Not only that, the main character is too generic and indistinguishable from other characters of this genre.

They need to make the main character very distinguishable. Take for example the main character of the new Castlevania, or Dante from Devil May Cry. Those are very distinct and memorable character that you can remember, long after you finished the game.

I feel that once you finish this game, you will not even remember the main character, or his name.

Capcom should port Monster Hunter for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3, what an awesome game that would make. Why they only release it on the Wii and PSP is a mystery to me.

why arent you talking about this game?

because its not monster hunter, its not demon souls. Its not even an rpg

The art style and graphics look generic, the gameplay looks clunky and meh

thats why too me at least

Neckbear4766d ago

So, "it's not a sequel, thus I won't pay attention to it"?

Come on.

It looks rather grandiose, truth be told. Generic, yes, but since when cliche is bad per se?

Also, way to make baseless assumptions on gameplay, kid. "Clunky"? If you haven't even played it!

bronxsta4766d ago

Yeah I think it loooks awesome.

I always hate when peoplse just say "Oh, that game is generic. Not interested." Not every game has to be innovative or reinvent the wheel. It doesn't even need a good story.

If it's fun (and that's all that matters) then I'd play it and be interested.

Gotta say this game looks really really fun. And it's an open world, always a plus for me...

Why Aren't You Talking About This Game?!

Me: walks away.

Torkith4766d ago

Because it didn't turn out to be Breath of Fire VI :(

Dragon's Dogma Is Still Amazing

Although the sequel is on the near horizon, the original Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen remains a fantastic action RPG, still worth playing.

A lot of the quest lines in Skyrim are good(not all and they don’t add up as a whole if you do thieves guild mage fighters guild etc) The dragons are very lame after the first few times and the combat is clunky as it always has been. The stupid sprint button is ridiculous.

Overall I agree DD is the better rpg game.

Both have theirs strengths and weaknesses but Skyrim should be so much more being the 5th game in Elder Scrolls series.

Excited to see what they add on to DD 2.

Unfortunately all they have done to Elder Scrolls since Morrowind is take things out (minus the sprint button which is so lame because you can kill dragon god like creatures but can’t run for more than ten seconds without getting tired)

anast55d ago (Edited 55d ago )

I liked the vampire questline and the return to Morrowind was okay, but the problem with Skyrim was the lack of consequence. There is almost no point in the quests. After I realized this, I started messing around with the mods and then quit playing. Though, I did spend 300 hrs. on modded content, but this is telling of how bad the game kind of is.

If DD was the size or close to the size of Skyrim, It would have been the primer fantasy game back then. I hope they up the size with DD2.

5 Games To Play While Waiting For Dragon's Dogma II

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.

every gamer should play this game

gold_drake105d ago

cant wait for it, feb and march are busy busy months ha.

SovereignSnaKe105d ago

I can still hear the title screen music in my head after nearly 12 years. Loved every minute of it.

MrNinosan104d ago

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.

DivineHand125104d ago

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.
