On a technical level though, there's a lot to appreciate here - despite some key areas that could use improvement. The visuals on high-end machines like PC, PS5 and Series X often look brilliant, with beautiful RTGI that hopefully represents what we can expect from the RE Engine in future titles. Series S is less appealing, without RT of any kind and suffering from low-res shadows. Series S and X have totally broken checkerboarding too, with a very messy resolve. All console platforms and PC also suffer from heavily CPU-bound performance in some areas, with consoles also offering an unlocked frame-rate that gives them an unstable feel even at the best of times.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is a great graphical achievement then, but unfortunately it's let down by some configuration issues on the consoles and heavily CPU-bound performance on all platforms. There's a lot to appreciate visually and its gameplay credentials have been rightly lauded, but equally there are clear areas for improvement post-release.

You only make 1 pawn, if you want a full 4 person party you hire the other 2 pawns and they come from other players or generated by Capcom.

That don't make sense, but ok. Is there a benefit to using other players pawns?


Not sure what type of Pawn I'd make. :jbhmm:

Had to change a few things for my liking to match DD1


I need the skill set in rb/r1....NOT L1

I did the same thing. Been playing DD1 for the past two days and my instincts were just locked to that config
PC brehs ,supposedly there is a framegen mod that doubles your FPS that free to download


I played for four hours last night, no problem. After using this file, I experienced my first crash. They're right. The devs probably excluded it cause due to instability.

People need to investigate games first before buying, especially pre-orders. I knew about the limited fast travel going in, and still bought it. shyt, I already have 3 ferrystones stocked up that I found in chests. Always listen to your pawns when they point out treasure. Yea you're gonna have to search HARD for a path to them chests though

This is not worth the $. Even without the performance issues it's just an okay game.

It's getting a 5/10 on steam.

I'll wait it out unless the coli says otherwise.


Currently on my 3rd playthrough of Witcher 3 and still haven't played Cyberpunk 2077 DLC after starting from scratch.:manny:

People spending hours creating their players then getting mad they can't refund.

Capcom:

on a side note, I noticed all the Street Fighter character names are available for 'monikers'
