    honestly I am very happy for Itsuno, let Kento cook what remains of DD2, let Itsuno go indie or make his own studio and deliver his actual vision, even with less resources, what matters is that he isnt rushed or forced, that he can actually, you know, fucking try for real without interferences. Also a small part of me hopes that Kento just continues dogma as well making it his own thing but thats extremely unlikely

    Wishing the best to Itsuno, he’s been behind of lot of fun games at Capcom. So wherever he’s headed he’ll probably be part of more fun games. It’ll be interesting to see how new Devil May Cry and Dragons Dogma projects will turn out without Itsuno since he was the director.
    Even though right now I’m not that optimistic about the Dragons Dogma series and DD2 isn’t that liked for understanding reasons (might be Itsunover). I’ll never take for granted that Itsuno gave us a sequel after 12 years of us asking and him wanting to do a sequel.

      Yeah, the lack of inovation and low effort was kinda disappoiting, and i haven't even played yet to give a better opinion. But what i don't think Dragon's Dogma 2 won't even make for a GOTY nominee, and once again fall in the shadows of underrated titles. The difference between the second and DDDA is that the forst was an unique game, that shined by itself
      Even so i lived to see a sequel coming out, just not in a good time or better way, i'm afraid ;T

    Itsuno had the misfortune to work for a publisher that was too afraid to really believe in new ideas unless the games had the names "Resident Evil" or "Monster Hunter" in their covers.In a way i think it's better for him that he left although i'm sure it pains him a lot to leave behind his "child" to be raised by a foster parent.
    And i don't have high hopes for the DLC. Capcom have been giving all their money to MH and the Dragon's Dogma team is probably being cut very short with their staff joining the MH teams in order to help with the releaase of the game.
    I'm afraid Dragon's Dogma's future is very shaky at the moment.

      I don't think RE and MH "getting all the budget" is a valid excuse for DD2 being a bad game. Especially since they funded experimental IPs like Kunitsu-Gami, ExoPrimal, and soon Pragmata. Radically wild ideas compared to Dragon's Dogma during an era where D&D fantasy styled media is extremely popular.
      I personally think Itsuno just lost his edge as a director because DD's problems wasn't the budget, it was how the budget was managed.
      And we know that's true because we have seen a game go through the same thing and succeeded, and that's Dragon's Dogma 1. A game robbed of its funding but was still able to become a masterpiece by placing the budget where it mattered.

      The problem is that it messes with the established world of the first game. If we swapped Beastren, Elves, and Dwarves in Dragon's Dogma for different looking humans, it wouldn't change a single thing about the world.

    What made Dragon's Dogma special to me wasn't even the pawn system. It was the unique blend of Action gaming fundamentals with RPG mechanics that somehow worked together instead of against each other as it is usually in Action RPGs. All of that with a good level of simulation aspects on top of it. Not immersive sim levels of interaction with the environment but very good. Stuff like throwing bombs to break ore off of ore veins or water falling on top of you giving you the Drenched status. That was peak RPG dungeoneering 101.
    As much as I am also on the opinion that DD2 didn't do enough, I do like that they got to bring up more of the simulation aspect forward, even if they might have bitten off more than they could chew... in a sense they made the greatest Bethesda game not made by Bethesda in terms of just how much modding has brought to DD2 since its release.
    Chances are - we're not gonna see new DD nor DMC, unless Capcom decides to boost their profile so they become more in line with their more financially successful IPs like Resident Evil and Monster Hunter.

      I don't hate Itsuno however i am frustrated. You don't get something like DD2 without mismanagement. That's my biggest take away from DD2, it's not just the budget or time constraints but an absolute mishandling of the resources they were given. The map didn't need to be that big for it to have an in-depth open world, most players didn't play DD1 so having an opening that immediately tries to subvert the beginning of the first game is jarring, trying to rework the classes is fine when it doesn't actively make classes like fighter worse.
      I love DD1, i love the concepts it introduces, i want it to be better. But how can it be improved if it's so mismanaged on all levels?

    Thanks for everything, Itsuno. 💐🎖️
    You defined everything I want from a game. 🎮
    I'm also 100% sure he left, because he saw how the budget went full on Monster Hunter, while Dragon's Dogma 2 was incomplete (for the second time) and also because Capcom's new policies and tactics would sully his future ideas, so he left to somewhere, where he could trust that his ideas would be respected and remain untouched. He has a lot of weight in his name, any other company would give all the budget they can afford, because they know his games will sell.

    Everyone talks about the enemy variety being less, when the majority of enemies that didn't return from the first game were variants of existing ones with different stats, and only a minor of these alt enemies had 1 or 2 additional abilities.
    In DD2 the base enemies were given those additional abilities in addition to ones that weren't in the previous game, so it's more complicated than just "less enemy variety".

    While it makes me sad to see him go, if it's his goal to FINALLY make his vision unrestricted, then I'm ok with it. I want the Dragon's Dogma that he really intended, not the shell of a game Capcom put out. It also tells me that Capcom may become another Blizzard clone with how they run everything, and I really don't like that idea, cause Capcom is a company I actually like. Also, for those who complain that online co-op would ruin it, no it wouldn't, just don't take out the option for pawns, for those who want to use them or don't like playing co-op. Like NPC summons in Dark Souls.

    I really hope Itsuno gets to fulfill his vision of what Dragon's Dogma was supposed to be, even if it can't be part of the IP anymore. As long as his games have climbable monsters, combo interactions, a boss fight on the moon, and something close to pawns with enough polish and scope, we know he's finally done it. I truly wish him the best, and I'm so glad I discovered Dragon's Dogma through a friend a couple years back.

      @Foogi9000 2 месяца назад

      Pawns actually wouldn't be hard to replace. Just have a proper adventurers guild and have a book where you can look for specific party members. I actually think it'd work better than pawns because it would allow you to expand their personalities and for them to have actual objectives and stuff. Really you wouldn't need to change much as you could still make one but instead of appearing at a riftstone they could be your first party member you meet at the guild.

  • @XaeeD
    @XaeeD 2 месяца назад +2

    I think that DD2, as a game, shouldn't have been released when it was. The game still feels incomplete, and there's a lot of rough edges that need polishing. This pertains to several aspects of the game. I don't know what a DLC would look like at this point, but rather than a drastic expansion, like BBI was, the game first needs a major rework that addresses more foundational issues. Then, if that's even possible, we can always hope for a BBI-type of expansion down the road.
    Currently, DD2 just lacks a certain 'touch' that the original had, and is clearly not present in this game. I immediately fell in love with the first game, and grew to love it even more as the years went by. DD2 doesn't have that same appeal, and there's no one reason for that, other than a vague matter of fact, which is that they should've spend more time developing the game. But this lack of input does manifest in the game in multiple ways. I can list some examples of this by comparing it to the original game and/or its BBI expansion pack, but I'm not going to do that here, as it would require an in-depth analysis and break-down.
    Suffice to say that I think that the game can't really be salvaged, even when we get an expansion DLC. Its problems are too foundational. And I don't think they can correct those in an update. It's like the paint has already dried now, and the painting is sub-par, or below expectations, and at this point, it's too late to go in and change the product on a deep level. Sticking another painting right next to it isn't going to drastically change my opinion, or gaming-experience, I believe. You see, BBI was a wonderful expansion to an admittedly flawed game, but the base game itself was already extremely charming. I don't feel the same way about DD2, so adding a BBI-type of expansion might be fun for a while, but it's not going to make me love the base game all of a sudden. We'll see what happens, although DD2 might just be dead as of now.
    Good luck to Itsuno! The man deserves our appreciation for giving us these experiences. I wish him all the best, and I hope we'll get to see more of his creativity in the future.

    • @kerwynpk
      @kerwynpk 2 месяца назад +1

      I couldn't agree more, and to your point if they were going to try to salvage it they should/would have begun immediately with all of the glaring issues they had at release (and almost entirely still have)
      I think corporate have already cut their losses and want to make sure they suck every last penny out of the IP with a quick addon, look at the steam commentary on their sad 'update' posts so far; surely they've realized how much damage they've already done.
      Coming from someone who plays DD1 to this day and thinks BBI was in the top 3 DLC's of all time, I get no joy out of holding any of these opinions and want some kind of miracle; but
      holding out hope that just paying them again for a DLC feels like a fooled me twice type situation.

    DD2 being worse than 1 in a number of ways while not surpassing it in any metric aside from graphics made me sad. The core fun stuff is still there, but nothing new added was interesting (other than the Sphinx Riddles), and certain positive mechanics were changed or removed for no good reason. Really bizarre decisions at the fundamental levels were made with 2. Things that a lack of time and budget don’t explain.

      @mattmiller3237 2 месяца назад +5

      I fully agree, and believe they will, considering capcom did say DD is one of their high priority ips now. So at the very least an expansion will come. After that we'll have to wait and see. But I'm pretty confident it'll do well, since Dark arisen had no itsuno involvement and it was better then the entire main game. Along with the improvements made to the main game themselves.
      Maybe we'll get an eternal ferrystone, maybe we'll get a new bitter black isle. That'd be fun.

    Correction, DD wasn't his passion project for the past 10 years, it was all his life. He started working on it immediately after Cap vs Snk in 2000. It was going to be a fully fledged 3D version of Shadow Over Mystara. But some clowns at Caps management really didnt want Dogma to take off. THE EXACT same thing happened to Mikami and Fujiwara when they're were working on RE1. Just research how Okamoto tried to cancel the whole game. It can't be a coincidence that top devs keep leaving. Mikami, Kamiya, Kobayashi and now Itsuno.

    - maybe a house for your loved ones
    - the houses you buy in new game+ should be free
    - more vocations, im still missing the assassine and the advanced archer. Also the trickster should have some previously vocations
    - a dark arisen place where you can fight some bosses and get some loot
    - hard and speedrun mode
    - remove the words "body type" and replace them with male and female
    - more weapons and armor
    - after new game+ dont remove the port crystals
    - NEVER make it like dark souls online mode. It sucks. What they can do is just experience the story as coop but no pvp. Pvp destroyed elden ring for me
    - Let us cook in our own house for stats increase
    - bring back all enemy types of dark arisen
    - bring back darkness magic
    - give the sphinx more riddles and for one a infinite travelstone
    - make the infinite wakestone permanently
    - make rook lv 200 and give him more abilitys and make him strong
    - make an anime thats better then the netflix one and remove cgi
    - give archer or thief the double jump back
    - pve against the ur dragon

    😢 This Sucks Man. 😢 Dragon’s Dogma is probably the ONLY High Fantasy Action Role Playing Game I Really Love & Care About.
    It’s special, I liked the Witcher 3 but the combat was not fun to me. But nothing else compares to Dragon’s Dogma & Dragon’s Dogma 2 was a tease because I love a lot of the new graphics and animations and no more loading screens and a lot less pop up, but it just didn’t capture that magical feeling like the first one did even though the first want was a total flaws mess when it originally came out, but I still enjoyed it flaws and all and saw so much potential for a future game.. then we got Dragon’s Dogma 2 and it cut out so many good things from the first game that made it better, like combat and fashion etc.. but it has less variety of monsters and bosses, and the loot was not good or rewarding, it just didn’t make sense to have allowed he special gear available for sale and easy to access, Idk.. again DD2 has even more potential but that’s just it, it’s JUST a NEW lever of Potential until we either Get so incredible DLC that blows us all away and improves the base game and beyond or if we are lucky to get a DD3 or something that’s even better, I just hope it’s not another 12 year waiting game.

    They probably really just killed off his future in the company. DMCV was already previously said to be the end of the Sons of Sparda story so there's likely going to be no future game or a completely original sequel story after that (which might not be good). DD2 seems to be just squeezed out to what he could create with a very limited scope, and seeing as MHWilds is more in focus now and no DD2, I'm guessing that's it. Capcom really just wants to cut off a number of their good IPs like Megaman before.
