Can we all agree that Action RPG is the best genre?
>>
I don't know. Dragon's Dogma is an amazing game though.
>>
RPGs in general are top tier

but a good action RPG like DD will stay with your for a long time after you stopped playing
it does require a lot of attention to detail though

DD combat was a bit too strict on level progression for my taste.

But it had all the aspects of my personal 10/10 game, it just didn't nail them all.

Crafting felt useless, exploration (rooftops etc.) didn't reward you enough, and the monster mounting should've been more fleshed out.

Worst part was that all the sub-plots seemed to be missing their finales.
>>
>>376254548
Yea but a role-playing implies you do more than just take a role, you define it. You control how they interact, with whom, for what reason, how they grow and change, etc. Of course a lot of games have mechanics like that today but you'll notice they say "we added rpg mechanics" and not "we turned into an rpg" The mechanics only add imersion, the purpose of the RPG is that it is an extension of yourself

RPG = Branching story affected by the players choices in dialogue and actions, character progression through XP/levels which unlocks abilities and item progression through loot and/or crafting. All these elements are found in nearly every single game on the market but only RPGs combine them all.

Warrior was worth it to me just to hit that perfect arc.
>>
>>376256846
Warrior is certainly playable but it suffers due to most of the harder enemies being designed around pinpoint damage, which it is shit at.

It does at least get some crazy items in the expansion to compensate for it somewhat, but only being able to set 3 skills and having limited options to ever deal with encounters will never get better.

Mediocre in terms of action rpgs, you sperg.

The combat is all style no substance. The only thing that matters is grinding levels and gear. Your own skill doesn't.

The story is a complete mess with arcs just stopping unresolved without payoff or consequences and the tone is all over the place, one time feeling like your average generic fantasy mmo only to shift towards trying to ape the dark and gritty feel of Berserk for a brief time.

The climbing mechanics are just a poor imitation of Shadow of the Colossus.

The pawn system is half baked and disjointed from the setting. It feels like they were trying to make an mmo, initially, but then had to recycle it into a single player game.

There are some good elements in there and it's a nice looking game (for it's time and platform), but overall this is neither a good action game nor rpg.

Gothic

Interesting world, engaging story, memorable characters and quests.
Combat may not be complex but it works and provides an equal need for personal skill as well as gear/level progression.

I fondly remember even the average fetch quests because they were interesting and unique.

In DD quests almost always boild down to kill X amount of this, go from A to B or bring me this item and there's no personality to them.

So it sounds like you prefer Capital RPG lower case action. I prefer the reverse. The action elements are way more important to me so I'd rather play Dragon's Dogma. All I need from the story is to send to places to fight fun enemies and give me cool gear.

Most of the quests you probably missed were just the "kill x enemy, escort y npc" quests from the boards. Also play the expansion, it's unironically the best part of the game.
>>
>>376258645
I would even settle for DDO at this point. The entire time I was playing DD I was thinking about how sick co-op would be. That shield or sword launch ability seems like it was made for co-op.
>>
>>376258572
Well, in that case Dark Souls wipes the floor with Dragons Dogma.
Or Shadow of the Colossus.
>>
>>376258724
Can I jump to expansion right after opening sequence in New Game+? Also I didn't explore that wakestone world much, I killed the eye, hydra and some other enemies but some door remained closed. I guess it's just place to grind.
>>
The character creator was crazy fun to play around in.
>>
>>
>>376252675
I cant help but feel like DD was good because it was rushed.

Given more time I suspect Capcom would start adding needless fluff and ruin what made DD fun in the first place.

Plus given the direction DDO has gone I am not looking forward the idea of a DD2 where its wacky anime tier bullshit as you fly around a monster punching it to death.
>>
>>376258623

>>
>>376258790
I disagree there. I've been on the souls bandwagon since demon's dropped, but the games are mechanically really simple. Do I need to master perfect parries in Dragon's Dogma? No, but it's fun as hell and takes me back to dmc a little bit.
>>
I think Dark Souls is one of the greatest games of all time, and although DD's combat was shallow it was still really fun.

That said I think Grand Strategy is the best genre.
>>
>>
>tfw no Dragons Dogma 2
>tfw Alchemy class was wasted on the DDO shitpile
>>
>>376258594
I found the quick dungeons rather fun. Mostly because it gave a bit of challenge.

Gear progression is slugish as fuck so far to me. The combat is tab-target though with action abilities and actual hitboxes.

It's pretty much similar to XCX in that spectrum. Also I enjoy offline MMO type games as well. But I would love it more if I can have a online dungeon mode with them.

Similar to the way Destiny does it where I could queue up to play events with other players.
>>
>>376254303
>playing that shitty ripoff when windjammers exists
>>
Could Dragon's Dogma be described as a "modern" take on Dragon Quest 3?
>>
>>376258849
There's a secret boss in the Everfall, but it's really just a reskinned Grigori. And if you're playing online it's really not worth fighting because it has literally millions of health points shared across everybody playing that day, so you can only actually kill it if you happen to be fighting it at the right time. It's only really notable for being the source of the best gear in the base game, which was made irrelevant by the expansion.

Also yeah, the expansion is balanced with the expectation that you play on NG+

Its shallow in terms movesets and stuff but there is a lot of neat background depth never even put into other games like the weight/height system. The fact a fatguy is the best at holding down enemies and lolis get thrown around whenever even the tiniest enemy flaps its wings is really neat even if it doesn't alter how you play that much.

If you want to go places efficiently and not see what the world has to offer then it shouldn't have been open world to begin with

Man, I still hope this game gets a sequel. Considering how fantastic the experience was with how little content they managed to put in, shit could only get better in a second game.

Dark Arisen is the best damn DLC I've ever played.

the critique is ~12min and its some good points
TLDW:
damage system is kinda broken, requiring grinding with sudden leaps in power
you can pause game at any time and heal to full with cheap consumables
you can farm rez stones so you can never die

anyone playing Dragons Dogma Online?

Is it playable with the english translation?

Why doesn't every RPG let me layer cloths. The clothing/armor system is one the the best. Is there anyone on the planet that doesn't like playing dress up? Yet every Bethesda waters it down more, I really don't know what retard on their team is pushing this bullshit.

It's been a while since I've played, but it was fairly straightforward with the English translations. It's mainly for items and quest progress, story dialogue was mostly untranslated aside from the intro bits. There's also rare situations where items/quest progress might be untranslated, but they do a pretty good job keeping translations up to date I think.
>>
>>376267165
Is it playable at all with other people?
Asking because of the ping and languaje.

>>376267165
thanks. I'll try it out.

been meaning to try out another mmo after all these years but I hate how mmos play usually. this is basically just DD Online though.

how would I do with a 15mbps connection? I assume I'd have to connect to Japans servers.

Action elements doesn't equal mechanical depth. I'd argue something could be mechanically deep and unfun.

It's not too terrible in terms of ping, surprisingly. At the worst during something like Grand Missions (8 player weekend missions), some people might look like they're going all over the place when running to an objective, but I never found it to affect combat too much. Also if you're wondering about VPNs and all that, there's a workaround so you only need one for when you log into your character. Afterwards you can just turn off the VPN and play direct.

As for language barriers, it's obviously going help if you know Japanese. Fortunately there's basic text messages you can use to communicate otherwise, the most useful ones being translated via the English patch. Other than that, you can always try to find the remnants of the English DDO community. I wasn't too fond of some of them, but they might help.

Also don't forget about pawns either. If you ever want to run solo, you can always bring pawns along to fight. You get multiple pawns as you progress and can recruit other players' pawns as well.

Also, I dunno about that. But Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen might be the greatest Action RPG out there.

>>376258480
Please play the expansion, man.
It's great content, very focused on combat and dungoen crawling, do yourself a favor and get on it!

Is Dark Arisen worth 30 bucks off of steam guys? Never played anything related to dragon's dogma before.
>>
>>376253958
i honestly would be happy with just the pc port
>>
>>376271401
Yes.
>>
>>376271401
You can probably wait and get it cheaper, but yes, it's worth at least trying out.
>>
>>376271235

I actually enjoyed the game more when it was more open world and hated post-game and BBI.

>>376271401

It will probably drop to $12 soon if you can wait.
>>
>>376271401
was 11 $ last sale you could wait for that price.
>>
>>376271639
BBI has like some of the best DLC content in existance.

Any action RPGs that have come close to the actual exploration feeling of darks souls 1?

Not him, but DDO is a bit simpler than DD. You can only have 4 skills instead of 6, big monster fights usually come down to you having to climb on them and hump them into submission (thanks to the enrage mechanic), and the MMO grind is real, especially when you start reaching later content. That being said, if you can deal with all that, you might enjoy it. I had fun through the story, then fell off once I ran out of main quests due to playing just before Season 2 took off. The Season 2 content was one hell of a brick wall for me. Corruption is a bitch to deal with alone, and my weapons were shitty.
>>
>>376271732

It was a copy/paste dungeon like Everfall and I'd rather play a Souls game if I wanted a tight quarters, linear dungeon.
>>
>>376272085
but souls has boring combat and loot

Action RPG is without a doubt the most patrician genre there is. It merges the fast-paced thrilling gameplay of Action games with the immersive worlds and story of Role playing games. You can't even debate this.

Cuhrazy comes in a close second.

Third is reserved for Third-Person Shooters and/or Fighting games.

Bunny hopping around shooting anything on sight can't be patrician no matter what. Examples like Vanquish, Resident Evil, Gears of War are fully fledged games that have the story, music, characters, art, to back the gameplay up.
>>
>>376272751
the series where you can pause the entire game to heal? I would consider any game with that mechanic to disqualify itself from the "action" aspect

As much as I love Dragon's Dogma we're gonna have to wait a little longer. This is Devil May Cry time now. It's been way too long.

Any new or upcoming ARPGs worth playing?
I kinda need it.

That would make me a happy guy. I'm replaying the first because of the threads we've been having these past few days and it's a blast. I liked playing assassin, but I keep going back to ranger. The absolutely huge bows they get just can't be beat

Depends what you mean by "good".

In my opinion, KH1 and 2 handle stats really well. Stats in those game actually matter and allow you to make different builds, but the combat is still skill based at it's core.

Story, even in an RPG, is still not as important as the gameplay. I love DD because it's a game first, not an attempt at literature/cinema.
