Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen

Started by Jmanghan8 pages

I was level 85, and when I climbed on his head he kept eating me.

So what, it's like Dark Souls with stripped down Devil May Cry gameplay?

Watch a video or read a review and find out.

No video's going to give you a feel for gameplay. And reviewers are generally good for "curb appeal" ratings and not much else..

Best source of info's always going to be from affectionado's/word of mouth.

Best source of info is playing it yourself. And it's a game you can get pretty cheap nowadays.

Bought it last night. Despite the negative things I've heard about it's simplistic combat system.

Only reason I asked here first, is because I know there's gamers into Platinum Games, Ninja Gaiden, and Souls. You know, good stuff. (As opposed to games like God of War, which I enjoy, but recognize isn't very good mechanically. Not like Ninjw Gaiden Black or Bayonetta).

Its one of the most satisfying combat systems in any RPG.

I dunno who told you it was "simplistic".

The Assassin Class is anything BUT simplistic.

Magick Archer, Mystic Knight.

This game's depth is crazy.

You can't climb grapple onto a griffin's back as it's flying and stab its wing until it is forced into the ground, crippling it in the process, in DMC.

Maybe you can't.

You can't.

DMC has excellent Hack-n-Slash combat.

However, Dragon's Dogma combines DMC with SoTC, also combined with a very deep RPG progression system, and a flexible class system.

I don't think there is a single game that gives you the same awesome feel as this game does.

Anyone here have this on 360? Don't really know anyone to hire pawns from.. 🙂

LOL.

Dude the 360 is abouf to stop being sold.

This was a highly overlooked game that rivaled dark souls and elder scrolls at the time. It didn't copy other RPGs at the time, it did its own thing and was unique.

And? MS hasn't dropped support yet. I know a lot of people with last gen consoles. (Plenty with older then that, too).Just, no one with Dragon's Dogma.

It JUST got a release of PC Earlier this year.

They have a few mods out for it already.
