Capcom Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen

[Deflowerer]

I doubt fucks will be given by Capcom at all about the success of this anime.

Plot twist: the protagonist turns out to be a pawn. Everyone is conflicted about this at first, but later on pawns earn the right to vote in Gransys. Also Mercedes totally annihilates Julien in combat.

The story follows a man’s journey seeking revenge on a dragon who stole his heart.

A man? His? In current year? Dafuq is dis?

yeah wtf. I was playing as 4 ft tall girl.

i was playing as a girl with melon-y . . melons

 

[Carceri]

^ Don't believe this guy. Nobody ever plays like that.

I think there will be useless and retarded sexist male-arisen and sassy black wymmyn-pawn who will do all the work.

Since it was either of the two, a new one could mean....

Even if it's a new Dragon's Dogma, prepare to be disappointed.

Between the almost perfect char creator, the awesome, responsive combat, the nine vocations, hundreds of skills and augments, dozens of quests, pawn system, layered armor system, hundreds of different armor/clothing parts, weapons, materials and consumables, I'm pretty sure a lot will be missing from a potential sequel.

They have the foundation. I don't see them dumbing it down. In any case it's going to get improved.

Also prepare for the summoner class.

If it was old Cacpcom sure but we are talking about new Capcom that seems to knock out great games one after another and its being completely in tune with its hardcore fans.


I only fear that after DD they basically thrown out tools they made for DD and like you say eventually DD2 would be basically new game instead of building on previous game.

 

[Delterius]

DD2 is happening and the character creator is even better for all waifu fashion's dogma needs.

Also, combat.

 

[sullynathan]

I'm guessing there will be a bit of Monster hunter world & DMCV in a new DD.

Of all the things to be worried about for a Dragon's Dogma 2, it not having awesome responsive combat seems like the weirdest one given how Devil May Cry 5 turned out. Same with the vocations. If anything I'd expect far crazier shit than in the original for a sequel.

I'd be surprised if a new Dragon's Dogma happened and they scaled back the character creator and armor system, listening to the Dragon's Dogma GDC presentation these were key things they wanted to do with the game and worked toward getting.

I'm thinking a new Dragon's Dogma, whenever it happens, will have lots of new stuff. Given the influence of Berserk on it, just from Berserk, if I was guessing news things we'd see they'd be:

- A fencing class based around Griffin...it'd likely have a move like the Mikiri Counter in Sekiro since that's basically what Griffith does in his first fight with Guts
- Some kind of sword whip class, since this is what Silat uses. Thinking of it now Nero has a sword whip in DMC5.
- Armors with activated stat boost and debuffs like the Berserker Armor
- Maybe transformations like the Apostles. Although there's two different ways they could go about that, one working like a Devil Trigger in DMC, and another where it's just basically it's own vocation.

What I worry most is they gonna anime it up to all shit or if they keep the normal, grounded aesthetics. DMC5 seems mechanically great but one look at it and I cover all my apartment walls with thick vomit.

Apart from that I have no concern they're gonna fuck it up mechanically, they look like they know what they're doing in that department.

tru. Dragons dogma online looks alot more like monster hunter than grounded medieval fantasy iirc

 

[GrainWetski]

Noting that I haven't played it at all, Dragon's Dogma Online looks more than fine based on screenshots. Wish I hadn't looked at screenshots because they just made me sad we don't have a DD2 or even Online in the west.

 

[cvv]

Yeah, this looks perfectly normal. Aren't those the same PC and enemy models like in the original game?

[d1r]

What was even the reason for not releasing DDOnline in the West?

One of the few MMORPG's I would have absolutely loved to play (alongside

Spoiler

Wizardry Online

Spoiler

)

 

[cvv]

What was even the reason for not releasing DDOnline in the West?

What's the reason for so many Jap games not being released in the West?

Maybe lack of familiarity with the Western market, maybe some financial/licencing reasons, or maybe just Japs gonna Jap I suppose.

 

[Machocruz]

I will come out of gaming retirement for DD2. Like the Joker in DArk Knight Returns, I will awaken from a years long catatonic state the day it is announced.

 

[sullynathan]

normal, grounded aesthetics.

lol what? DMCV is the most grounded looking DMC game. Dragons Dogma looks like an anime in comparison.

 

[glass blackbird]

I can't believe a sequel to Devil May Cry would look like Devil May Cry

 

[HoboForEternity]

i wonder how long will this capcom winning streak last. . .

in a few years they will probably got a big head again, or a change in the high up staff and become 2013's capcom again

 

[Sentinel]

The thing that scares me the most about Dragon's Dogma 2 is the possible absence of Grigori. I only poised through DD1 and remember it because of Grigori. Such an amazing creature. I honestly wouldn't even care if they just rehashed him for the sequel.
