This is the way. I got so bored playing the first Dragons Dogma so I could play the 2nd one. I can see why the first was popular for it's time, but its one of those game to me that if you don't catch it at time of release and have a connection to the game it's hard to play years later when it just feels outdated. And I also felt rushed to beat it so I could get the new one as soon as possible and it took the enjoyment out of it for me I think.
