How to pass time in Dragon’s Dogma 2
There is four ways to pass the time in Dragon’s Dogma 2which we’ll review in the list below, but we’ve found that the easiest way to reliably pass the time to arrive at a specific time of day (day or night) is to sleep in a hostel or staying at a Camp Site.
These are All the Ways to Pass the Time in Dragon’s Dogma 2:
Doze off
As you venture through different settlements and areas on the map, you’ll likely come across seats, benches, and even oxcarts that have a red cover indicating where you can sit. These specially marked seats will allow you to doze off once seated. This takes a short period of time – although it is difficult to land precisely at a specific time of day this way.
Rest in hostels
You can pass the time by paying to rest in inns during your adventures. When speaking to an innkeeper, choose the “Rest” option (the corresponding fee will be displayed next to it). Once you accept this, you can then choose whether you want to sleep until night or day. This is the most reliable way to land at a specific time of day, but it can be quite expensive.
Talk to the bartenders
In some taverns, such as the Stardrop Inn in Vernworth, you can talk to the bartender and a “Pass the Time” option will appear when you talk to him. This is a lot like the “Dozing Off” option mentioned above, it will skip some time, but it’s difficult to quickly land at a specific time of day.
Staying at a campsite
If paying for a hostel is a bit too much for you, you can always stay at a campsite. However, there are some things you should know before doing so. You first need to find a campsite and they are marked with a small fire icon on your map. You’ll also need a camping kit so you can sleep alone, but these can be quite heavy items to carry. Finally, you will be vulnerable to attacks here, so you need to be ready for anything.
At a campsite, if you’re willing to take the risk, you can sleep until morning or nightfall.
