Dragon’s Dogma 2 is an early but solid contender for GOTY – we said during the preview this might be the case, and now we’re convinced of it.This is a game that demands uncompromising visuals, and the original focused on fable and forget and asked “What does Capcom’s version look like?”, the sequel replied: “Why don’t we make Capcom’s version?” Dragon’s Dogma instead? “.
The original game was full of compromises. Content shortened by time or memory. The whole planned race of beasts never panned out. There are only two inhabited settlements, one of which is a small tutorial village. And squeezed onto squeaky hardware that makes it nearly impossible to run it. Well, the more things change, and so on. For anyone interested in the original game and its development, it’s clear that Dragon’s Dogma 2 is a labor of love and a wildly successful return to an idea that hasn’t quite been realized yet. On the first try.
That’s why, as explained in the video above, I don’t buy the circulating notion that Dragon’s Dogma 2 is some kind of cynical money grab. Yes, microtransactions are stupid, pointless, and opportunistic. But if they blow the deal, they’re throwing a lot of babies out with the bathwater.
