I wish we could create second pawn to have better party customisation. And larger part, 1 or 2 more why not, could be balanced with more enemies or smt.

Also

Hah, that barbarian at 0:30 almost looks like he has my edited scale armor haha.

Looking at that tower it seems sequel is still set in the same land, i wonder i they are trying to recreate original scope before DD got cut down.

Is it just me or it's the same engine from 2012?
It looks very similar. Kinda hope it is since then I will be able to run it :P
Well, on the negative side of speculation, they only announced it for PC, PS5, and XBox Series. No Switch version.

But here's hoping your toaster is up to the task whenever it comes down the pipe.

It's not exactly a toaster since it's only a year old. It's funny, the 3070 GPU which I have, is already considered old thanks to the ridicules VRAM requirements currently. I'm just hoping that Dragon's Dogma won't be texture-loading stuttering like all other modern games.

Gotcha. I thought you had one of those machines like: it can run Wiz 7 perfectly, why would I upgrade? :lol:

Fuck yes finally.
Yeah this looks a lot like DD1 which is great. I feared they would start from scratch and sell it as DD2

Unless you run your games in 4K this GPU should be almost ridiculously OP. I have RX 5700XT (2070 Super equivalent) and I can run comfortably everything in 2K, usually on High/Ultra details.

I don't get the obsession with 4K, it makes sense on consoles with 60+" TV screens but on PC monitors that rarely go over 32 inches 2K is mooooore than enough (IMHO on monitors below 27" even 2K is a waste, 1080p is more than fine on those).

I have a 1080 monitor. Even so, certain games, like the latest Star Wars thing had some serious texture loading. The most baffling this about this, is that the graphics doesn't even look that good. Everything is so good damn blurry, like someone smeared vaseline over the screen.

like the latest Star Wars
That game is so terribly optimized it brings even the latest, bleeding edge hardware to its knees. I would tell you to abstain from using it as a benchmark of your hardware, but most modern games run like complete ass in general. At least RE engine is a welcome break from that.

Yeah, I guess you are right. Just hope the RE engine can maintain that sweet constant 60 FPS for an open world.

Huh. I played Survivor a few days ago and it ran almost without hiccups (also game looked p. gorgeous).

Tho maybe it was because I played it after their big PC patch, dunno.

Played on day 1 I believe. The game ran okay 90% of the time, 60+ fps. But sometimes when stuff was loading in I got this annoying stuttering. Nothing like the first game on the PS4 though. Holy shit. Texture loading in the middle of battle.
