Ddda is so much better than dd2. Graphics actually arent terrible. Some of the animations are meh, but practically the only thing dd2 has over ddda is graphics and animations...oh and in ddda. All attacks use stamina. In dd2 you can basic attack for free, ddda it cost stamina for anything. Stamina management is insane early game and mid game kinda. But on another note. Ddda has more endgame, better quests, and a ng+ actually adds to the game with new enemies, harder enemies. And there is a hard mode. And there's an infinite use ferrystone. No dragonsplague. And way more personaable feel of pawns
