Dragon's Dogma




So... Picture this:
You take: Skyrim, Shadow of Colosus, Monster Hunter, Devil May Cry and a bit of Dark Souls and guess what you get: Dragon's Dogma!

Sadly, it's only on PS3 and Xbox 360 for about 60$. If you don't have one, this isn't for you. Sorry.
"Take up arms, newly Arisen."
Dragon's Dogma (ドラゴンズ ドグマ Doragonzu Doguma) is a recent adventure game published by Capcom and developed by the same team behind Resident Evil 4 and Devil May Cry 4. The game is an open world action adventure, where every decision made will affect gameplay in some way.

Dragon's Dogma was released in 2012 on May 22 in North America, and May 25 in Europe.

Dragon's Dogma allows the player to create their own character, whose gender and appearance can be altered to the player's liking. The player can select one of three Classes for their character.
Fighter - A class focused on attacking. Uses swords and shields for blocking enemy attacks.
Mage - A class focused on magic. Uses staves.
Strider - A class focused on speed. Uses daggers for close combat and bows for ranged attacks
Players will be given three AI controlled teammates called Pawns, who can be issued commands, such as "Go", "Help", and "Come". These characters will assist the player by giving information about enemies, among other things.
Dragon's Dogma offers a new feature to the action game genre: allowing the player to grab onto enemies to allow for a more varied means of attacking. For example, the player can grab onto the legs of a Griffin and then climb up it to attack it's head for more damage.

A huge open world full of monsters will be available for the player to explore and quest within, as well as a large city environment, in which over 200 NPCs who will freely go about their day-to-day lives. These NPCs can be talked to with full voice acting.

Players will supposedly be able to look forward to between 30 and 100 hours, the former being for players who play normally, and the latter for players who wish to play the game to its fullest.

Basic storyline of DD. SPOILERS!



Dragon's Dogma is a game with a unique combat engine. You don't just wack your sword at a dragon's ankles. No. They took the climbing mechanic from Sadow of Colosus and implomented it to DD.

Oh and don't even get me started with the spells and weapon skills. The spells make Skyrim's spells look cheap and rushed.

Here is an example.



Now this is how you fight a dragon with spells, Skyrim.


Okay, mind blown, right?

I'm getting side tracked. Anyway so people compare Skyrim and Dragon's Dogma and see which is better. I preffer DD over TES for these reasons:

Spells
Combat system

And the Final Boss

Speaking of the final boss, CAPCOM really put time in their final boss.

I mean, look at the size of him!



Now, I know the information above says only 3 classes, but they are wrong.

There are 9 classes in total. Here they are:

Strider (Basic)
(Hybrid of Strider and Assassin)
Ranger (Advanced versuon of Strider)
Fighter (Basic)
Mystic Knight (Hybrid of Fighter and Mage)
Warrior (Advanced Fighter)
Mage (Basic)
Magick Archer (strider and mage)
Scorcerer (Mage advanced)



Now, they are limited sometimes unlike Skyrim but they do come with awesome abilities. A strider is like spiderman, with abilities like Ensnare which makes you throw strings at your oponent to bring them closer to you. On the other hand, the scorcerer has spells which are designed to take down bosses (see spell videos above)

There is also a Pawn system where you create, customize and edit your pawn for other people to use. They are exactly like you but they can't use hybrid classes.

I will be posting new stuff that has already been made but I havn't the time to write anout

Things to write about:

DLC Add ons
