    Dragon's Dogma 2

    They did that with DMC and RE and I'd be surprised if the next MH doesn't have it too, just how they do their games. The shit they sell isn't even worth spending money really, but I guess some suits said you have to have MTX and technically not having them is leaving some money on the table even...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    It is definitely super weird how they did that. It's not hard to fix but people shouldn't have to delete their saves(which if on PC also involves finding said files, can google it in 3secs but still it's not obvious like console saves). As I said earlier I started by spending like 30mins just...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Haven't crashed in like 4hours, but I've seen ppl have issues with crashes on reddit earlier so might be fucky with something. Well you can always turn off cloud saving and just launch the game, I'd assume making the files read only then launching it with it on again will force update your...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Spent a bunch of time troubleshooting stuff, the character creation saves only register properly if you have cloud saves on, so had to turn that on, reinstall the creator, launch it to upload a save to the cloud, delete my DD2 save then restart to get it to load. Now that I got the main pawn...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    It's kinda balanced, there might be a sweet spot for a specific vocation/situation, but not really a "this is the best and everything else sucks" kind of thing. Bigger chars have advantages like higher total stam(or did in DD1 at least), faster movement, more encumbrance(which in turns makes it...

    Preload on Steam is a pile of shit, at least anytime I've had it work it wasn't worth it cause it took like 40-50mins to decrypt the files and it would have been faster downloading it again. If your internet isn't good though it does suck.

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Video just above your post has several use of Tornado, reviewer apparently only played Sorc(in one part he shows the vocation screen and he's like rank 4 mage rank 9 sorc rank 1 or unlearned in everything else). There's a part at ~6mins that's pretty funny with it.

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Mage does look less shit than in the first and Sorc is one of the 2 vocations(other is Warrior) that you can unlock basically right away so wouldn't be a bad choice, plus they made some spells better for general use(the lightning spell lets you spend additional stamina to repeatedly recast bolts...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    The game has aim assist if you don't aim manually, might be some skills that require manual aiming but a fair few looked they just fired directly in 3rd person and were automatically aimed at whatever was in front of you from the vocation trailer. You can choose to manually aim the same skills...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    This was the issue ppl mentionned even during the preview event basically and a few reviews pinpointed the issue even on console. And yeah every review pretty much seem to say the same thing. Game is great BUT the performance is bad, both on PC and consoles, with PC being better but still not...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    First time Souls always work like that, when you replay them(for NG+ or otherwise) it's hilariously easy in comparison especially early bosses, because you're a lot more used to the timings of the game in general(weapon timing, rolls, the way animations work) plus your experience on the boss the...

    Same country(might be region? not entirely sure), and devs can opt out of family sharing at any point(which is why some games don't share atm). 1year cooldown for switching families, VAC bans are shared too so sharing competitive online games is a terrible idea, this kind of stuff. The main...

    Cool video, still watching but found a game I had entirely forgotten, Lands of Lore, I remember playing that stuff a bunch but it completely disappeared from my memory until I saw it in this.

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Well there's still Bitterblack Isle, the DLC dungeon thing. I'd recommend checking it out since you still have half a week before DD2 anyway, BBI was really cool for postgame content. It might kick your ass if your gear is shit and your level low though(like for example if you rush the main...

    He said in his first stream that he got banned like 10times when he was streaming FF7 rebirth a few weeks ago, he'd just remake an account and stream for a bit then get banned and so on. Will probably pop up a few more times I'd assume but yeah that's usually how it goes.

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Yeah I saw the post about it and check the vod quickly, sadly it's one of these "I have no idea what I'm doing and I don't read anything" guys, so most of it is spent trying to murder NPCs in the first encampment and getting fucked up by every enemy encounter on the way to the first town while...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    They haven't said, hopefully they don't have a review embargo up till release, but at the same time I wouldn't be surprised as they've been very cagey about what's in the game past the "demo" they've let people play so far, they haven't revealed a lot of the endgame monsters, a large bit of the...

    There were a few more skills I guess, medusa too although not actual footage of it, not super interesting but makes for a decent "trailer".

    V Rising

    Right they do but some of them are balanced around multiplayer grind, while others are balanced around solo grind. Like Terraria you can play solo without any concern, the grind is extremely light. Valheim and this from what I've heard is a lot more grindy if you're solo so you want to mod them...

    V Rising

    Yeah that's what I saw mentionned in some reddit thread about the announcement, if you play solo/duo and don't want to grind too much you just speed up progression a fair bit, and reduce daylight time and it makes the game perfectly fine, the default is a bit too skewed toward multiplayer it...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    I mean Stellar Blade is basically slightly hornier Nier Automata, and that game was japanese. Dragon's Dogma just goes the way of Monster Hunter where the models just look kinda meh for horny stuff, but you'll just be able to mod them(well presumably), there's already a nude mod for the...

    Even then half of these didn't get destroyed by woke shit and just were shit games to start with then they slapped a coat of woke on it because that's what the execs think help with sales. You can't tell me Suicide Squad would have been a great success if they hadn't advised on it, game is the...

    Last Epoch

    Frostclaw for clear yeah, take the mana reduction first, then either the bottom left for repeated casts or top for 40% chance to cast elemental nova(you'll want to spec into elemental nova too, get the aoe nodes). Having both might strain your mana though but you can fix that with a 0 cost skill...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    You can actually use RTX if you have DLSS on though, while it's hard to use without it on cause it tanks ressources so much which is why it's relevant in the comparison. My basic understanding of it is DLSS3 is different from the previous one cause it works by generating additional frames...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    If they end up dropping the 40xx series prices it might actually be better value to just grab a 4070 super or something than most of the 50xx stuff other than the 5090 if you want the super top end card, I wanted to upgrade last year but in the end I didn't cause I spent most of the year playing...

    The Thief starting armor(or whatever armor they show in the char creator) looks like utter shit, which is weird cause they've shown very simple designs for other classes and in trailers and stuff, and then the Thief armor is like some wow armor shit with floating gigantic pauldrons and stuff...

    Magick Bow which is a special type of bow(no quiver, no string, looks weird as fuck but they light up with bunch of magic effects when you fire). I can't remember where you buy them but I assume the wiki would tell you.

    Yeah so Rurikhan who's a youtuber who makes a fair bit of monster hunter stuff made a detailed video on Mystic Spearhand(he'll be making another on Trickster too) and he lists all the skills you get and it's definitely way more than what they've shown in the class trailers. He explains like...

    If you just follow the main questline you'll basically get stuff done, just ignore Bitterblack Isle when that unlocks as it's basically endgame content(it's the Dark Arisen DLC stuff but can be accessed pretty early iirc, just you'll get smashed and do 1dmg per hit until you have enough gear)...

    Na they said stats don't work like in 1, and stats didn't matter that much anyway in 1 it was some min maxing bullshit but ultimately you could absolutely switch to war/assassin even after leveling to 200 as sorc, you just did a bit less damage but difficulty was never that high in DD1 that the...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    With respecing at camps I think you can probably switch your setup based on what you're gonna be fighting so even with just warrior as long as you spec into the skill that does damage when you're climbing on shit you'd likely be fine for example. Fighter wasn't so bad either the taunt worked...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Last page has links they released the char creator, can get it on Steam directly on the store page or on PSN and the xbox equivalent, so you can make your char in advance and just play when it releases, it's not much but saves some time if you like customizing stuff for a while.

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Don't know how it'll be for this but online pawns tend to be pretty broken cause the cost to hire them was absolutely not scaled properly and you could end with like lvl 100 pawns at lvl 15 or whatever, it's definitely one of these feature that's better ignored if you're looking at a more...

    It's not even the usual jrpg super loaded in random ass dialogue stuff, it's like there's an opening sequence, and then you just get sent to kill stuff, go back to report, go kill more stuff, report and so on. There's actually few cutscenes or dialogue outside of sidequests. There is a "twist"...

    Also seems they won't release an actual demo, but they will make the character creator available ahead of time for people who want to spend some time making chars. Downside is you can't check what they look like ingame, I find the character creation is often different than real game conditions...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    It's not really related, the first game's "story" is pretty irrelevant and it mostly boils down to a conceptual thing rather than a proper plot, and iirc the 2nd game is just kinda like a parallel world thing where it's the same universe but not the actual same world. Think like Zelda where you...

    I mean there's indoor and indoor I guess, but I definitely disagree with that, the first game was almost exclusively stuff indoor with only a few things outside other than travel time from one "dungeon" to another and early game progression. The Shadowfort(orc/goblin fort), the Watergod's...

    They did show some caves in the recent previews, but the current demo they had access to was very restricted which is why everyone has the same footage. I'd be pretty surprised if there's no actual dungeon considering the first game basically only had dungeons and a fairly empty overworld...
