8 months agoThe original dragons dogma had poor quality of life features and its arguably a large part of the appeal. No fast travel, no multiple saves. If you didn’t like your little ai character you had to advance pretty far to change it (and the same with fast travel, it sort of existed and was a surprisingly cool unique system but you had to get through a lot of the game for it). I’d compare it in a lot of ways to the first dark souls as far as not following gaming industry trends.
I was hoping dragons dogma 2 was more of the same honestly, I don’t think I care if travel stones can be purchased or whatever. Is it a bad game for those that liked the first one?
I’ll most likely end up picking it up and I’m glad it runs well. The reception has been wild to me. I loved all the jankiness of dragon’s dogma but I feel like a lot of people are buying this sequel and not knowing what to expect
