  Latest Episode Episode 49 - Free of the Cruel, Unending Ring Please rise for the Gran Soren National Anthem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caup2pd0Sok This is a Wikipedia blurb. Dragon's Dogma is an action role-playing video game developed and published by Capcom for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The game features an open world fantasy setting, in addition to hack and slash and survival horror gameplay elements, and was released in North America on May 22, 2012. The game was developed by staff members that worked on previous Capcom franchises such as Resident Evil, Devil May Cry, and Breath of Fire. (All favorites of mine, well the old ones anyway) This is Dragon's Dogma.     This game is damned amazing. It is pretty much a Dungeons and Dragons Pretty Barbie Dress up game. Gear up, look cute, feel fresh, and go into the wilderness to find adventure. Quests to be completed, mysteries to be uncovered, weapons and armor to be aquired, dudes/babes to swoon, and most importantly monsters and ne'er-do-wells to be brutally slaughtered by the dozens! Truly Enjoyable B Grade Fantasy. The game features multiplayer in a similar sense to Dark Souls, except instead of you joining another persons game for a time, you instead get their AI partner called a Pawn. Once you are done with the Pawn, or they get chucked off a cliff, you can send them back with a comment, review on their appearance and helpfulness, and an item as a gift. They will sometimes speak up on their wisdom and keen observations. I will be playing the PS3 version, so anyone that wants their Pawn to give me a hand can post their Pawns name. I will probably change up the Pawns for every video. But, I will avoid using grossly overpowered Pawns for my current level to properly show off the difficulty and avoid paying for the Pawns.This LP will cover the original content as well as the Dark Arisen expansion content, eventually. But overall this will be a casual experience where I go through the quests and change up the pawns and vocations to expose everyone to the sheer amount of variety that is possible in this game. I might use some of my higher level characters to show off vocations I don't normally play as. There are a couple of quests that have a few ways to be completed and I will ask for your input on how to proceed, I might then choose the other solution during a New Game+, should I go that route. As a side note: Don't post spoilers about the story line or quests until they have been covered. Thanks.  Lookin cute, feelin fresh.     I bought and played this and the expansion while working in South Korea. Good times, but I couldn't read the manual! So, I will also slap in a Korean word around the end of each session. Edutainment!

       Keeshhound The vast range of emotions of the Arisen    Lunethex Friendly Fire  I will be playing the PS3 version, so anyone that wants their Pawn to give me a hand can post their Pawns name and I can find the rest in the Dragon's Dogma Goon doc. I will probably change up the Pawns for every video. But, I will avoid using grossly overpowered Pawns for my current level to properly show off the difficulty and avoid paying for the Pawns.

Let's go with a classic: Conan the Barbarian I really wanted to like this game, but it has the most annoying escort missions in any game that I've played and dropped it pretty early. It'll be good to see the rest.

This game was absolutely AMAZING from what I played of it. That said, the lack of fast-travel and crippling AI were huge drawbacks  I got the DLC back when it was free on PS+, but I've yet to retry the game.

I love this game, but it's on my backlog along with a metric fuckton of other 80+ hour long games. As for character creation, How about Earthbound's Ness as a Warrior?

Geop posted:This game was absolutely AMAZING from what I played of it. That said, the lack of fast-travel and crippling AI were huge drawbacks I loved that the game's idea of a fast travel system was letting you make a five minute run through a mine to cut off like five minutes of travel time and eight minutes of fighting harpies. The really nice thing about the game is how classes and special abilities work. If you get tired of one playstyle you can switch to another pretty easily. If the new style doesn't work you can just change over again. From the first video we saw the use of a cliff as a weapon. There are a number of cliffs and drops in the world you can throw enemies down, but there are also a couple specific monsters that have attacks that can send players and pawns flying. Watching a particularly strong warrior pawn get booted down a waterfall by a troll is both hilarious and disappointing.

This game looks so fun. The ability to grab and throw things, also enemies into environmental hazards is like the one thing I ever wanted out of action RPGs. Why did it never come out for the PC.  Let's go with some kind of warrior.

Oh God, Dragon's Dogma. It's kind of janky and unpolished, but it's more ambitious than it looks and the overall mechanics, regardless of what class you choose, are a rollicking good time. Midget Mage!

This is one of my favorite action RPGs ever! I say we need a giant norse warrior woman or something of the sort for a pawn, named Jodis. It's what I went with and it went wonderfully for me.

This game is fantastic. It has it's rough spots, but I think the expansion mostly fixed the fast travel issue, which was the worst one. But no other game has anything like the pawn system and pawns own. EDIT: Changed vote. Sindai fucked around with this message at 22:01 on Apr 18, 2014 |

Why did it never come out for the PC. The same reason Dark Souls took a year and a petition to get ported to the PC: Most Japanese studios don't focus a lot of time on PC stuff these days, partially because the games they make don't sell as well on the PC as they do on the consoles. It's too bad because this game would drop frames like you wouldn't believe on my 360 and the load times are pretty extreme in some cases.

I loved this game when it came out. I should definitely give it another go, I haven't touched the new DLC. I don't care how we make our character look but he has to be a Goony As gently caress Strider. Striders are the most broken class in the game. Cannot wait to see more of this LP.

I really really enjoyed this game but unfortunately I was hit by the save corruption bug in the Dark Arisen patch and lost 20+ hours of progress and I just haven't been able to will myself to pick it back up and start again. Here's hoping this lp is just what I need to convince myself to try again!

If I remember right, some of the early encounters are an enormous pain in the rear end for a mage, so let's go fighter for now.

I love the game to death but i really hate that Dark Arisen changed the amazing opening theme. The only true choice for class is Muscle Wizard buff as hell mages are a must in any jrpg.

Definitely one of my favorite games of all time, just a ton of fun. Mages are fun and flashy but not particularly dynamic so I vote for...

"Muscle Mage" is close enough to "Goku Mage" that I would be happy.

I'm currently a buff level 2 strider. Second video should be up later today. I'll tally class and appearance separately. E: Also I'm dumb and used my laptop mic to record that with a nice one plugged in. So that should be better. Gildiss fucked around with this message at 20:18 on Apr 18, 2014 |

Dragon's Dogma is an incredibly uneven game, what's good is great and what's bad is terrible. But the good makes up for it. Shame my pawn is like level 200 or something.

Just in case people who haven't played the game don't know this: mage is by far the most boring class to watch, since it mostly consists of standing around charging spells.

Well I guess I can't read so I'm changing my vote to muscle mage. if you're not a mage your pawn pretty much needs to be because it's really hard to find well-made mage pawns online.

This is the best idea I have seen all day. also yeah, Dragons Dogma! I just got back into this game, and i love the abilities to hell and back, everything feels so satisfying to play. the game is really fun to just run around slaying monsters in, especially when you find a camp above a certain field. I really hope you show off my favorite training spot, there is just so many things to kill there it's amazing.

This is an absolutely wonderful game with a weirdly infectious spirit to it. The Pawn system is what really cements it as a classic in my eyes. Rest, Gimpy Joe. You served me well.
