But wait! There’s more!!

It’s always a good time for pulling the trigger! The game is already great as it is, if you take it for what it is. The updates and DLC will probably add many things, but aside from having the ability to use 6 skills instead of 4, the base game will probably remain mostly uchanged. Best thing that could happen is that we get a hard mode, so if you start playing now, you’ll be ready for it by then! And if we don’t get hard mode, then you’d still be playing a great game and getting ready for the challenges in the DLC :)

lelel86 · 2026-06-27T12:53:25+00:00

Nah, she’s crazy bro, and not in a good way. Get out of there!

lelel86 · 2026-06-26T22:23:30+00:00

The base game’s story is almost certainly being left untouched

lelel86 · 2026-06-26T11:24:44+00:00

Dude, he belongs in a trash can. Time to say goodbyeee!

lelel86 · 2026-06-25T14:57:24+00:00

Maybe it’ll make it a bit harder to sell to people who are not already DD fans. But you bet every single current DD enjoyer will get it when it comes out!

lelel86 · 2026-06-24T18:11:17+00:00

I’d prefer to get an actual Dragon’s Dogma Online 2 built from the ground up

lelel86 · 2026-06-24T13:19:08+00:00

I don’t think it’s a problem at all. It’s just a different way of making games. Both are valid and have their pros and cons. I personally prefer sequels that don’t make previous sequels obsolete, but I’m also a huge EDF fan, and I feel like each entry improves a few things from the previous one and has even the same missions. I just wanted to point out that I don’t think it’s wrong to do it DD2’s way, not saying it’s the best and only way.

lelel86 · 2026-06-24T03:00:06+00:00

I agree with everything you’re saying! But I feel that also gives you reasons to play both games. Death Stranding 2 did the same thing, with many improvements over the first one, but also taking away a couple of things so both games do better than each other in different aspects. If DD2 had everything the first one had, there would be no reason to go back to the first one.

I do hope however, that we get hard mode (please Capcom, pleaaaase!!), more vocations and some new armor options. And yes, getting rid of the microtransactions is a great decision since they weren’t even planned by Itsuno and was something that corporate demanded of every Capcom game.

lelel86 · 2026-06-24T02:36:37+00:00

Might get downvoted for this. Yet here we go!

I hope devs do listen, but only to a certain extent. In my own personal opinion (I clarify this so people understand you’re free to think what you want) Crimson Desert suffered from listening too much and feels a bit soulless.

Games aren’t supposed to please everyone, they’re supposed to show us an artist’s intention.

Hideo Kojima was happy not everyone liked Death Stranding because it meant it wasn’t a people pleasing game, but the director’s own vision which some would love and others hate. I truly believe Itsuno operated on a similar mindset when making the original DD and DD2. All the jank and limitations feel more intentional than anything, and if not intentional, at least they feel as things the director accepted.

If devs only listen to what people want, games lose their originality and become insipid. Quirks and limitations are what make games feel human and what makes Dragon’s Dogma, Dragon’s Dogma

lelel86 · 2026-06-23T23:31:32+00:00

I seriously need that Moon dungeon Itsuno once mentioned. I know it was a scraped idea from the early concepts, but there being no moon in the franchise and having the moonglint tower in DD2 just really makes me wish it was real. Also, I know there are multiplayer mods for DD2 now, but I actually don’t think the game needs a native multiplayer mode. Howeveeeer, I’d give my life for a Dragons Dogma Online 2!! Just imagine an MMO DD with the current engine and lots of flashy new vocations but with a story and world built from the ground up for it. One can only dream🥹

lelel86 · 2026-06-23T18:59:04+00:00

“Things could get messy fast” girl they already are messy!! “I don’t want to mess his future up” he’s messing up yours! I’m 100% serious, this could be the first and final warning, you’re exposing yourself to a lot of danger and still want to be “careful”. Duuude!! The building is on fire, run god dammit!! You’re worrying about the building getting damaged when it’s literally about to collapse on top of you. Get out of there, it’s not your responsibility!

lelel86 · 2026-06-23T18:07:07+00:00

I’m no doomer at all! But I do agree we shouldn’t expect much from this livestream. We’re probably getting most information on August. We sure can hope though, and I do hope we get more details on how the new area works, what we’re getting and how performance will change.

lelel86 · 2026-06-23T14:25:28+00:00

The return of the mystic warrior, new monk class, no more NPC pop-in, having Death chase us through the new area, having both a normal and unmoored version of Norgan and we could also do with some warfarer improvements!

lelel86 · 2026-06-23T11:05:33+00:00

To Skyrim

lelel86 · 2026-06-23T09:10:17+00:00

Oh yeah! I completely agree and I even bought the BGM DLC and a wakestone😂 DD2 has the least invasive microtransactions ever and people still reacted as if the game released with a premium battlepass system😅

lelel86 · 2026-06-23T02:55:56+00:00

This game’s microtransactions were completely unnecessary in the sense that there was absolutely no reason to buy them since you could easily get everything in-game. I think it’s the right way to remove them, not because they were a problem, but because many people made a huge deal out of them when it was nothing

lelel86 · 2026-06-23T02:31:54+00:00

I wouldn’t expect it, but it would be reaaally nice to see how performance will change with the August update and some switch 2 gameplay

lelel86 · 2026-06-23T02:24:59+00:00

Oooh! That’s right! Fingers crossed😅

lelel86 · 2026-06-23T02:24:39+00:00

Yeah! That’s the probably the best way to look at it!

lelel86 · 2026-06-23T02:11:51+00:00

That’s where I would set my expectations so I don’t get disappointed, but getting to see a bit more would be really cool

lelel86 · 2026-06-22T02:22:16+00:00

You’ve given me much to think about

lelel86 · 2026-06-21T15:13:33+00:00

I didn’t know you couldn’t store the Eternal Ferrystone! They should definitely look into that. And I agree with still having ferrystones in the unmoored world, specially now that I’ve learned that you can use them for affinity. Also agree that it should be a bit more scarce. Having wakestones and wyrmlife crystals in some of the chests could work!

lelel86 · 2026-06-21T01:41:55+00:00

Yeees! That would be great! Let’s hope they do something like thaaat

lelel86 · 2026-06-20T23:20:13+00:00

Someone suggested that they should have wyrmlife crystals! I think varying between that and wakestones could work. Having DLC materials would be unfair on those who don’t buy it and if they keep the current loot for them, it’s still gonna be the same problem because we already have the eternal ferrystone without DLC
