I hope for hard game setting and the ability to solo the whole game...those companions seems pointless to me.

Capcom Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
- Thread starter Syril
- Start date
Too many games are ruined by this; lots of content and shit you can engage in, but no incentive at all to do so, because you auto-win anyway. Let's hope it's not true, or as you say, only apply to some easy mode.
Interesting gameplay bits:
I hate how its edited, never showing the full sequences, like what happens once the dragon you are hanging on flys, but it shows lot of promise. And I like that he dies sometimes.
A good Dark Souls/Monster Hunter meets Skyrim with some Shadown of the Colossus game seems to be the case.

That looks pretty fun.
The director for this game was also the director for Devil May Cry 2-4.
Occasionally Fatal
Prophet
Seems interesting. Would have preferred to see a full sequence though instead of it being all chopped up. It's hard to tell how much sense the fight actually makes.
here's 2 streams with less edited gameplay (warning: long)
stream 1:
stream 2: part 1 , part 2
video quality isn't the best and they speak in some alien language not meant for the people of the earth but you can see that this is the game Kondoms of Derpalur wanted to be. i just hope there'll be some kind of PvP multi or at least a "hard difficulty" setting

This actually looks pretty impressive.

Watched a portion of the last video there. Hmm, one thing that concerns me- it seems the NPCs are voiced by english voice actors. Bad ones. With bad writing. Which I'm sure isn't a problem for the japanese guys playing it (hard to spot bad acting/writing in another language), but if they keep the same voices when they port it over and don't have an option to disable them, I'm going to get sick of the mudcrabesque ramblings very very quickly.

All the best games have voice acting by the five Japanese residents who speak perfect english (but can't act)!
Shenmue
Metal Wolf Chaos
Ace Combat
Boktai
And of course

Looking pretty promising.
levitate?
things get more dangerous (and actually dark!) at night?
if hear that correctly, partial heal only with spells and full heal only in town?
the pawns and classes/jobs system also seems pretty cool (vids on that same yt channel go a bit more into detail)
if the quest design and story are at least decent, this could be one of the best ARPGS and likely the top contender for GOTY. too bad the pc master race won't be playin' it
hopefully that in-combat party banter text can be turned off

Because certain PCtards then complain WHY DO I NEED TO USE A CONTORLLER TO PLAY A PC GAME U GUISE R DUM.
And thus why we don't get good action games like this, Devil May Cry (ahem, a GOOD port of a GOOD one of the series), etc.

Which one is that? DMC 3 and 4 are both on the PC and both are good, but 3's port sucks shit tho. And I played them with a keyboard and it was fine after i got used to it, don't see what this KEYBOARD VS CONTROLLER WHICH IS BETTER AND WHY? DISCUSS! shit is all about just use what's most convenient for you and that's that.
DMC4 is not good.

Japanese PC games have comparatively heavy indie competition I think. So the big devs don't bother since indies can't move to consoles, and instead of being dicks about the copyrights they just enjoy the free advertiseing. And of course almost no japanese indie stuff gets translated, even unofficially.
Not to say that theres competition in the same circles (indies can't put out big 3D shit that easily obviously) but that japanese PC games have a very different niche from consoles. You don't see something like Dark Souls very often on PC for the same reasons you don't often see something like Starcraft or Fallout on a console these days. Everyone who wants those kinds of games simply buys the appropriate system.

Very cool to see they are taking a very heavy Dark Souls influence, I have high hopes on this one.
Now, why does this game such a horrible press? All the journalists seems to despise it, with half-ass articles and sarcastic previews...FFS, Kotaku called it "Dragon's Dogma (The game with the RE6 demo)".

Probably because even the mainstream is tired of dragons.

Yes. If this game was published by EA, IGN would have a giant preview mini-site.
