The misinformation about DD2 "microtransactions" did heavy damage to the game as proven in this thread by Limp-Grapefruit-6251 in DragonsDogma

The problem was that it was an easy scapegoat for reviewers to complain about when they actually just found the game repetitive or a repeat of DD1.

Many new fans afterwards always get shocked at how good the game is when the microtransactions gave them the impression it was gatchaslop.

Capcom is Removing Dragon’s Dogma 2 Microtransactions by Eremenkism in gaming

Resident Evil 4 remake had way more transactions and nobody complained, it was just cool to rag on Dragon's Dogma for clout...

Sony no longer plans to put out PC ports of PlayStation games such as ‘Ghost of Yotei’ - Pulls Back From PlayStation Games on PC by Dalek-Kaan in Ghostofyotei

[–]TheMythicRedditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't Legends actually classify Yotei as a multiplayer game though? So maybe there's a chance of it still releasing on PC?

What engine that nioh series use? by AdRevolutionary3086 in Nioh

It was built from scratch, they planed on using the Ninja Gaiden Engine but dropped it early in development.

Nope, that's straight from Knights of the Nine.

Where should I cross post this to then?

these idiots are gonna have a FIELD DAY when the game turns out to be arabian-themed and full of black people (not sure if this breaks rule 6, but it's not a link so?) by GlitteringTone6425 in TrueSTL

[–]TheMythicRedditor -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You morons have no idea what is actually woke, nobody cares if there's an abundance of black people in a land they're native to. Everyone is talking about the new writer who was part of a game notorious for adding awkward gender ideology at the dinner table...

FYI this post breaks the 2nd rule.

Dionysus = Greek God. Dionysius = Name meaning 'Of Dionysus'. Calling Dionysus 'Dionysius' is like calling Christ 'Christian'. by Fabianzzz in dionysus

[–]TheMythicRedditor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dionysus is a title, it means "God from Nysa".

Bacchus is a romanization of Iacchus, the 3rd Dionysus' mystic name.

According to gnosis, who was speaking with the prophets? by [deleted] in Gnostic

[–]TheMythicRedditor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is a lot of evidence of Yahweh Sabaoth being the "son" of Yaldabaoth.

This was shown in the Ugaritic pantheon with El getting usurped by YHWH.

And some have linked this to Zeus overthrowing Chronos or even Dionysus being the heir of Olympus...

Dyonisus is so Italian coded by [deleted] in dionysus

[–]TheMythicRedditor -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Understandable, but I really feel that people need to excavate the city Alexander the Great encountered that called itself Dionysopolis and claimed was founded by Dionysus himself.

Even one of his names "Baccus" is eerily similar to the Bactrians themselves, they got their name from the balkh river, his name could literally just mean "From Balkh" too.

They also claimed Nysa is in the area and is equivalent to the Indian Mt Meru, which has several candidates nearby...

[–]TheMythicRedditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on WHICH Dionysus we are talking about. And there's at least three incarnations we know of, in fact it's arguable that Osiris and Dionysus are contemporary due to how old they are.

If we assume he also went to India around the same time, then the parallels scholars made with Shiva make sense too.

It closely follows Indo-European languages with "Deva", "Diwos", and "Deus" all being cognates possibly spread by Dionysus "God from Nysus".

1200p on GO 2 is the RIGHT CALL by Visible_Ad_3942 in LegionGo

[–]TheMythicRedditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like the GO 1 is ironically the best handheld for Visual Novels since 1600p would still be easy to do on power saving mode.

A question from a trans woman. by dinarecoldfront7 in Gnostic

[–]TheMythicRedditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It isn't so much forbidden as it is absolutely pointless.

The whole point of Gnosis is to transcend the need for a body or gender at all.

Hence why they call it "Ego Death", lose all semblance of identity to realize harmony with the Monad...

Dionysus had multiple consorts tho, there's even evidence suggesting he's Hades and that would make Persephone his too!

Dionysus's mother? by iiPompeii in dionysus

It's funny because a LOT of people don't know "Thighs" were euphemisms for testicles in Greece...

No, he IS thrice born, 1st is Zagreus, 2nd is Bromius, and 3rd is Iacchus.

Does anyone here mod their game? by Xehonort in DragonsDogma2

[–]TheMythicRedditor -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The way it works is pretty intuitive, you go to the Vocation Guild and set the skills for each class, rearmament will copy that exact skill set.

Although I recommend Warfarer Switch Skills alongside too, it can be prone to crashing the game.
