20 hours with my little sorcerer. Pretty fun game so far. To be a strong magician totally worths it.

Along with its stunningly high resolution graphics and full Steam platform support, this is the ultimate franchise experience for PC players.
Set in a huge open world, Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen presents a rewarding action combat experience. Players embark on an epic adventure in a rich, living world with three AI companions, known as Pawns. These partners fight independently, demonstrating prowess and ability that they have developed based on traits learnt from each player. PC users can share these Pawns online and reap rewards of treasure, tips and strategy hints for taking down the terrifying enemies. Pawns can also be borrowed when specific skills are needed to complete various challenging quests.

This is the game I will start tomorrow, and I'm pretty hyped!

Likewise, I want to like and play this SO BAD but surviving even starter fights are so obtuse. Why is Japanese game design like this? Why is everything so fucking cryptic to the point of being impossible to understand? I can't rescue Quina and that's, like, a fucking starter quest. What the actual fuck. I think Capcom might just fuckin' …

Read moreI really like this game but it does piss me off that there are frequently no warnings when progressing certain quests will cause you to fail other quests. Especially when the game keeps telling you to progress other quests if you’re stuck in a certain quest. It’s annoying because I had one quest that required me to find someone in a specific location, but I hadn’t located that area yet. Also selecting the quest didn’t provide a quest map icon. I accepted another, completely unrelated quest, and I failed the previous quest. And then of course the game immediately autosaves, so I can’t correct for something I was given zero warning about.

I can’t believe I ever bounced off this game. It’s so much fun. It shares many of the pleasures one finds in a From Soft game without remotely being a Soulslike. I really can’t express how much of a difference time makes, and that when you play a game can have such a significant impact on enjoyment.

The weight restrictions are a bit aggressive. I went on a single quest, after dumping every superfluous item in storage, and just loot inside the quest area had me nearly encumbered. And even with distributing things evenly amongst my pawn everyone was pretty close to heavy. We just can’t carry nearly enough of spoils from a single quest produces that …

And even with distributing things evenly amongst my pawn everyone was pretty close to heavy. We just can’t carry nearly enough of spoils from a single quest produces that result. Maybe there’s some skill I need to improve my weight restriction.

Ok, I think I'm now official, officially into it. I wasn't even upset when I lost most of my skills after I changed vocation and kind of had to start from scratch, lol. I got ambushed by about twenty dire wolves and a cyclops, and I came out pretty unscathed. And then about six or so more dire wolves showed …

I got ambushed by about twenty dire wolves and a cyclops, and I came out pretty unscathed. And then about six or so more dire wolves showed up with some undead just as I was looting that first group and I came out of that without issue as well. Not long ago I would have been unprepared for that kind of ambush, but I think things are properly falling into place.

I feel weirdly ambivalent about this game. I think I enjoy playing it, but simultaneously I don't. I want to keep playing it, yet I don't. When I'm not playing it, I want to jump in and play. When I'm playing it, I get tired of it and want to stop.

I feel weirdly ambivalent about this game. I think I enjoy playing it, but simultaneously I don't. I want to keep playing it, yet I don't. When I'm not playing it, I want to jump in and play. When I'm playing it, I get tired of it and want to stop.
I feel like there's something really great here, but it feels like pushing a boulder up a hill. And I don't mean it's hard, or that I don't enjoy its friction. I think I like both of those things immensely. I'm just exhausted when I play it. And that might mean I'm in the wrong mood for this, but I'm deeply afraid if I drop it yet again I'll never come back 😔

Ok, I’m into it. Figured out what I was doing wrong during that fight and was able to defeat the lizards. Did my best to keep them isolated so that we weren’t overwhelmed. Also learned that regular attacks don’t consume stamina. I thought both regular and special attacks did, and I was overusing special attacks as a result. Once I …

Once I realized that I need to use regular attacks to allow my stamina to replenish things clicked for me.
