wth was up with that Fournival dude lol
@@Artemisarrowzz Fournival is your sugar daddy, keeping you happy with his riches while he makes Gran Soren's economy work right. He's your...guilty pleasure. :D
Some one needs to do this type thing with the remnant from the ashes before the ashes games >>>edit before the ashes tells a lote but still huge gap.
Oh, There was one major flaw in this video tho... And that is, you didn't show the mysterious door in the keep, where Mercedes fights Julian. I played this game for way over 10 Years now and still have no Idea how to get in there, it only says "you are missing the right key" and there IS a chest, visible in there... :( I NEED THAT! XD
Skeleton Keys don't work. I also tried some other keys from the game but to no result.
@Dero I believe if you get a barrel, hope onto it, and then jump towards the door, it'll let you pass through it. Disclaimer though, pawns will destroy the barrel if given like half a chance
God I hope that Capcom manages to fully realize every idea they have for DD2... We need another game like this, but with more content, and less repetition
Me too man, I truly believe Capcom with Itsuno in the lead will deliver.
@@The_Rift Fingers crossed! It's totally up to Capcom - they cut production on DD in the first place.
Hope they explore the other regions.
@@markcarloestabillo5461 I would love to see Hearthstone in person. :)
I say we NEED an AWESOME DD2 reveal trailer this year, really really do i_i
Dragon's Dogma is a criminally underrated game.
It's got alot of cool things in it and it's main flaw is just that it's early to mid game are extremely boring outside of set pieces. It's also worse depending on the class you want to be.
@@hheecckk526 I got the Dark Arisen version, and while the main storyline is fantastic, Bitterblack Isle is so much better. So many boss fights! 😁
@@dadladtv8321 don't get me wrong bud, but dragon eating heart, defeat dragon ain't the brightest story ever. I will say bitterblack is the main game, and main is the dlc, cause of the negative arisen thing
@@alkaupadhyay7650 To be honest I play for gameplay quality over story.
I'm a cutscene skipper you see 😁
@@hheecckk526 actually all classes are OP
Just imagine how good dragons dogma would be if they kept with the plan of making all those areas that have been cut from the game.
It might have been excellent. Then again, it may have sucked and dragged down the experience.
I'd love to see the unrealized vision but I'm fully aware that part of what makes this game so amazing is literally the product we got.
So, it's an incredible what-if but it can run both ways. Good and bad. I'm satisfied enough knowing what we got is incredible.
@@ThePawnedPawn What about the cut races? That would be amazing!
@@shrubman3422 Well, in all fairness, you can still technically play an elf...or a hobbit. lol
@@ThePawnedPawn I am talking about other races being in the world too. I would say it would be a little weird being the only elf in the land but considering the Arisen is an orphan it would make sense.
@@shrubman3422 It would be interesting to look at, but I'm not sure if there's any lore to dig up. I'll have to go digging later.
One thing that always bugged me is one single line said by Madeleine when you talk to her in the encampment.
She says that "there are other ways to reach Gran Soren" instead of the main gate and turns out she wasn't lying.
I got bored and took the back way (where there's a bandit hideout) and after some good hours of killing some though monsters, running from a Wyvern, etc, i got to the mines. And if you manage to go through all this hell you will indeed reach Gran Soren without taking the main quest (to deliever the hydra's head)
Sadly, the guards won't let you in so it was pretty much a huge waste of time from me, still, i thought it was pretty fun.
There is another way to get there as well, I used the jump mod from dinput8 - to scale the cliff behind the Cyclops close by.
@@The_Rift Cool, never used mods in DD. haha
@@lukehorta5115 Yeah, mods are fun haha.
I just did this last night on my first playthrough. Was pretty pissed when they wouldn't let me in:/
I love this game so much. It starts as a simple story with a weird twist but the more you think, the deeper it goes. And I haven't even finished dark arisen yet. This game is crazy and so damn underrated. I need to go even deeper.
Yeah I agree Niklas, and if you want to discuss the deeper lore - we have a dedicated discord for that here if you wann join: discord.gg/84ma6845
"Slave to a broken order... dare you look upon the truth?"
While it don't appears at first, Dragon's Dogma is a game just as depressing as Dark Souls once you start to connect the dots.
@@The_Rift do you have a newer discord link? It says that one is expired
@@ghosttoast8326 hey man, you can find the link in my latest vid.
You can sneak into the duke's treasury at night and open the locked chest with the wyrmking's ring before turning in the quest. There will be no special dialogue no matter if you choose to give the Duke the original or forgery after stealing from the chest.
Ah, that's interesting.
I'm doing this
@@treacherousjslither6920 just make sure you teleport out of there as soon as you get the contents of the chest or you will be sent to the dungeon.
@@Th3Messenger99 Will do
Can confirm. I did this after giving the Duke the forgery myself.
The first time you kill Daimon, his body doesn't disappear, and his eyes will follow you around the room.
For real, that's scary af.
@@The_Rift YEA, Lyncean Sight helps to see his pupils move
Gave me the *willies*
Been playing this game for years and never knew that, siiick
What also came to mind is those weird gladiator-style arenas in some of the everfall areas locked behind bars. Awesome video!
Cheers Philipp, will look into those arenas.
@@thiagosaul121 Joke's on you, i have neither Instagram or girlfriend.
@@lukehorta5115 @Poe Soul Just report them. They're bots so they won't see a thing you say. :)
@@lukehorta5115 😂😂😂
If I am not mistaken, those Gladiator-style arenas at the Everfall areas are for you to fight Arch-Hydra. I haven't been playing for years, so I forgot what the Hydra trigger is (extermination side quest, I think).
Mystery tombstones in games are usually tribute by a dev to a real person who has passed away.
Dude i remember hearing babies crying in the area where you fight the dark bishop/undead dragon in bitter black isle which literraly sent chills down my spine.
Damn, yeah I know I have heard child laughter when fighting phantoms and ghosts.
I remember when the game was out after some months, there was a rumor that originally there was going to be a 4th class that was a cleric who used holy books to heal allies and debuff enemies before becoming a necromancer vocation that could use staffs in order to control and raise dead as fodder or create different skeleton types in place of extra pawns but it wasn't added because of deadlines so they put skills that were complete to the mage and sorcerer while using the book animations for Steffen using the tome
Damn, that would be sweet.
Im assuming that they will add a necromancer class into the sequel and hopefully a cleric as well would be a interesting mechanic
Goddamn. Imagine the advanced and hybrid classes
Advanced: necromancer
Fighter: paladin
Strider: seeker?
Mage: ???
@@grub833i wish they did :(
To be honest this still remains my favorite game and seeing this makes me wanna do another playthrough of it.
Well, it's always great to get back in Dogma Daniel ;)
One of my favorite games of all time. It starts out very slow & boring, but gets way better the deeper you get into it. Definitely one of the most underappreciated gems.
Very true Shawn, it is much deeper than it seems after first playthrough. Truly a gem of a game.
Seriously one of my favorite games of all time, even though it's unfinished. BBI is maybe the best endgame content in any RPG. In many ways, the "real game" doesn't start until you've finished the main game twice.
I have to agree Ryan, the Dark Arisen dlc is truly amazing - imagine if they added another cut island as a dlc pack.
@@7dayspking he said endgame content, not specificly dlc
@@7dayspking Yes but you didnt compare it as endgame content, just as an expension. For exemple blood and wine and heart of stone for witcher 3 are better expansions than dark arisen but bitterblack isle provides better endgame content and replayability than both
@@7dayspking So we just agree then. Tho i really think engame content is missing from so many rpgs despite them being my favoring genre.
@@7dayspking i hate it when you just play a game only to never touch it again or repeat the entire story, there should be something fun to do still
Maybe it is common knowledge, but Feste, the court jester guy, is named after Mephistopheles, who was basically the Devil in the famous German folk tale based on Johann Faust. In the story, Mephistopheles describes some of his aliases (just like Mick Jagger sings about in Sympathy for the Devil), one of which is a court jester.
Seeing the thumbnail, i was like, wait there is no moon? And instantky turned on my ps4 to check it.
Rumours we could be getting a sequel in 2022. Apparently information leaked on it. Fingers crossed, fellow Arisen.
Yeah, counting days. I hope we get news next year and maybe a release in 2023.
😉
2 and half months!
Soooooon!
And it’s bomb 😎
In regards to the "The Duke tries to assassinate the Arisen" point at 18:40:
I think the idea is that the assassins you fight during the quest "Nameless Terror" were actually hired by the Duke. The evidence mostly being that it's an end-game quest that occurs around the same time that the Duke is getting nervous about the Arisen, and there's not really a clear motivation for their attacks otherwise (apart from the "tightly-folded letter" that implies it's a religious issue). Of course they could also just be part of Salvation but other Salvation agents are happy to identify themselves as such, whereas the assassins do no such thing and say it's not personal.
Another counter-argument is that the tightly folded letter you get as a quest reward is involved in the DLC quest "Lost Faith", which implies it was a member of the Faith who was responsible for this and who wants to retrieve the evidence for it.
It's an interesting theory that the Duke was behind the Nameless Men. I'm not sure if it's accurate, but we don't have a whole lot to go on so it's as good as any guess.
My favorite take on it is that they were hired by a cult (probably not Salvation, who has no issue throwing bodies your way) who sees the Arisen as an obstacle.
Hired by, of course, not pulled from the ranks of. They're apparently very skilled mercenaries under one central leader.
That said, it could be Salvation who hired them, but it doesn't add up to me. Perhaps an off-shoot, or even a sub-sect of the Faith that disagrees with certain parts of the teachings.
Lot to look into. They'd definitely deserve their own video, rather than just a part of one.
It's a very interesting idea, was thinking of that as well.
@@7dayspking not at all
@@7dayspking The quest is intriguing to me because the lore behind it is both complex and scant.
We get a warning note, we get a dialogue, we get this sense of foreboding and minor clues to these killers' motives and identities...
That's a lot of effort for just throwing in something pointless.
It may just be for show, and it may have been time or budget constraints, or it may just be what we see is what we get.
But if there is anything to find I'd love to go digging. And the implications of it all really reeks of fun to me.
@@7dayspking I think they made great points. It's worth analyzing and debating because we're here doing so, no?
It definitely seemed like a quest that didn't get followed up due to constraints.
I remembered when I played this game for the first time. I wasn't expecting that much but God.. what a game! I was totally shocked by how much fun and epic that was. This game is truly and heavily underrated. It's actually a true hidden gem.
Also, I'm 100% sure we will see a DD2, it's just a matter of time, we just have to hope that it will be as good as DD1.
When DD2 arrives it's gonna change the gaming industry standard.
My only complaint is the bait to min/maxing, which is more my own ocd flaw than a flaw in the game.
Oh boy you’re gonna be excited when you hear the news

would you look at that lol
Still my favorite game of all time...Capcom needs to confirm a part 2 already LoL it's killing me... I played this game over 10 times already...Just realized after my last playthrough that the best vocation overall is for sure the Magic Archer...Anyone who hasn't played this do yourself a favor and play NOW!!!
Not sure about best, I'm a Ranger main, but for sure the most fun! Gimme a flamin' hug! lol
The most OP vocation - indeed!
@@ThePawnedPawn LoL i love the Ranger i wanted that to be my favorite class since i like sniper style gameplay but Living armors do exist so you need some type of elemental to deal with them that's why i said overall because i think the Assassin is the strongest because you can charge the Force Hatchet and use six fold with blast arrows for insane damage but you run into problems when you need magic to take on certain enemies that's why Magic Archer is the best and there isn't even a close 2nd.
@@The_Rift For sure it is, there isn't even a close 2nd IMO.
@@kg21bestpf94 You can use elemental weaponry, have pawns pick up the slack, or just drop the armors off a cliff.
I really want a sequel that's not criminally cut in terms of content, and with more polish. This game is amazing, I got back to it recently and can't stop playing.
I actually want them to incorporate the missing moon into lore. Maybe keep it as the multiverse or have a eldritch beast swallowed the moon.
On the Team Riftstone discord we do seem to debate this regularly. My personal favorite theory is that it's a physical manifestation of the rift (which is why a single moon can orbit multiple worlds) but with the Seneschal's will weakening he can't hold it manifest as well and so we can't see it in-game.
Given the original plan was to face the Seneschal or Creator on the moon, and we face them in a very rift-like plane, I think it holds water.
Speaking of the Griffin hunt quest. I had an odd glitch where the Griffin couldn't enter the arena, due to being stuck on one of the walls. Luckily it was an easy fix, I just needed to leave and re-enter the area.
That's interesting, maybe that is what OP is referring to.
Apparently the tainted mountain was an active volcano which could mean that the ruined city was destroyed by an eruption maybe caused by the death of the dragon
A very interesting idea!
I thought the dragon destroyed it because he has a dialogue for that
@@PRiSiNY It's very unlikely Grigori destroyed it. It's far more ancient than he is. More likely that he just knows what happened, or has some idea otherwise.
@@ThePawnedPawn yeah i guess you're right because of the design of the city
@@PRiSiNY Looking into the history and extended materials, The Tainted Mountain predates Savan by 900-1000+ years. It was way before the time of the game. It was way before the time of Godking Leonart.
So there's literally no way anyone we ever see or meet was involved in it.
Further, it wasn't caused by the death of a dragon. Tainted Mountain was caused by a dragon taking it over.
Fascinating stuff. I'd love to do a video on it sometime soon.
While the pawn system works in solo, we need to have a multiplayer version in a hopeful sequel, this game was/is amazing, could you imagine enjoying it with friends? I guess it would be competing with Monster Hunter, but i dont think thats a bad thing since they’re both Capcom games
It would be cool if you play as your main pawn when in another player's playthrough
Speaking of "Iceberg", DD Sequel needs desperately a glacial land, with lots of Snow and icy monsters, imo ;x
You said it Rapha, imagine walking through next gen Dogma snow.
@@The_Rift I'm thinking in Skyrim while doing that, haha >D
Lol, imagine if it was like the Subnautica ice biome, but you can now kill the worms by entering their tunnel network. It will be absolute hell but by god will it be awesome to fight Uber Graboids.
Ew no i hate snow areas
I have high hopes for a Dragons Dogma sequel. When they made Dragons Dogma, they must have used a lot of their resources and time on the mechanical aspects and systems of the game, this time around they have a lot to build on already. I am just impressed that it somehow managed to be such a good game even if 60% of it was scrapped in one way or another. Excellent video by the way!
Cheers man, yeah I have high hopes for the sequel as well - hope we get some news next year.
Honestly I'd rather have a remake of the first game with massively expanded content, I dont think a sequel is gonna live up to the first game, it' just this great (and by god I hope they dont bring stuff from the DDO to the sequel!)
@@wallacesousuke1433 Actually it would not be hard for them to surpass the original with all of its flaws. By simply making a world that does not feel shallow. Fixing the blocky facial animations and dialogue and actually making a decent story, the story in the original was really poorly presented. Now they have the fundamentals to build on, which they did not have back when they made the original, meaning they can focus more on making a more fully realized experience. And no, I don't think its not realistic that they would implement MMO mechanics in a single player RPG. I certainly hope they take the games leaps beyond the original but make a game that is true to the chore aspect of the original. But they should not be too true to the original either, a lot of advancements have been made since 2012 in terms of game design.
@@snuppssynthchannel that's why I would prefer a remake to an actual sequel, despite of all its flaws and limitations, DDDA is just so amazing and unique, it has a charm to it that I can't describe in words, and the soundtrack is beyond amazing and fitting!
Sequels generally fail to live up to the standards set by their predecessors, especially in this era where people demand sequels to be different enough to justify purchasing them (or no, it looks just like the first game, lazy devs, not gonna buy this cashgrab or gonna wait for a sale..!)..
I'm know I'm just rambling lol and no way a remake is in the makings (at least not in the foreseeable time) but a man can dream :)
Regardless, I'm gonna play the hell outta of a sequel, not hating!
@@wallacesousuke1433 We can be glad that Dragons Dogma was always a franchise that Hideaki Itsuno is really passionate about, he have stated that of all the games that he has worked on, DD is the game he is most proud of. I think they will nail it, and if not. Then we will always have the original to go back to. :)
I never knew there was two more paths in the mines
All these years
They're very easy to miss. Those promissory notes are pricy and there's a seven day wait. You really have to know to look, or just be addicted to backtracking.
It was much easier to find to find them in the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions where you had more reasons to go there again for the Berserk armors.
Yeah, me too Dakota.
Thank you so MUCH for doing this, I wish people would cover the lore more here too because this Game is amazing but it's lore is so dark it's good. Not only that but to me all of this lore needs to be fleshed out as well, hopefully we get some closure if Dragons dogma 2 happens.
Trust me, if you're thirsty for more lore we frequently debate it on Rift's discord. Feel free to join us there!
Thanks for the shoutout! This game has some of my favorite secrets and hidden locations, speculating about them has always been one of my favorite things to do!
You deserve it my friend, really lucky to have you and Pawn to help me out in making these videos.
Me and a friend I worked with both loved dragon's dogma, we would spent hours at work(while working) discussing potential lore we didn't know, speculate on DG2, talk about builds, classes we wish we could play in the online game when it was still playable.
God I love this game! Still play it to this day.
I'm glad we can help keep that alive! If you're still in touch with that friend we have a discord where we talk lore all the time, and of course we do lore videos regularly too. 😃 Anything to keep this game alive for people, and help new players find a greater love for it.
8 years after release and even now after I've finiahed the game almost 10 times, there is still stuff I just now realize. More details that seem to tell stories never told. I don't know if some of this is because so much content was cut, so now it's only hinted at, or if it was the creators intention all along. I almost feel sorry for everyone who picked this game up and only played it once, not going into the true depths of the story. For many people, it's just a story about a nobody who went out to kill a dragon.
You have worked so hard with this video hun! Proud of you❤
Thank you for taking care of our boy, while I was working day and night making this video 💙
This knight takes off his helm, thrust his sword into the ground, and takes a knee. I bid you a good day and good fortune to you and yours. I thank you for taking good care of Sam. We sure do love him :) thank you my friend:)

@@zoe_723 thank you :) I missed you guys as well.
More speculations or observations for you: What about the Headless Icon, what is it’s significance, and furthermore, is it truly the rarest item in the game? For that matter you could also have mentioned that the cyclops in the battle arena underneath the Shadow Fort becomes a hydra (Post Game)
The Gold Idol is visible, albeit inaccessible within Fournival’s house. What are the ruins in the sea in front of Cassardis, they seem to resemble the mythology of ancient Egypt (reflective mirrors)
Did you know “Strigoi” (only encountered in Bitter Black Isle Post Daimon) are named after Romanian spirits?
Maneaters are references to the mimics within Dungeons and Dragons, which also occur in the Borderlands 2 DLC Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep.
You can purchase a set of leg armour known as “Strikers Greaves” after completing quests for Reynard, however they may also spawn in a chest within the Blighted Manse if the Arisen pursues Lenore in the quest “Duchess in Distress. There is also a type of mushroom that grows only within said castle named “Droughtshroom” which restores 300 Stamina but inflicts poison.
When seeking out the Dragonforge in Hillfigure Knoll, if the Arisen travels to the tip of the figure’s sword, there is a gather spot on the ground where the daggers ‘Signs of Valour’ can be acquired.
There is a metal golem located in the farthest reaches of Witchwood, post game, which can only be encountered if serana is saved and she seeks out her grandmother.
Bruh the fact that you can literally collect the stress strands from the back of the dukes chair puts this game at a 10/10 instantly
What DDDA lacks in other content, they instead make up for their combat mechanics. Played lots of open-world rpgs and there are only few if none which comes close to the exhiliration that DDDA's playstyle brings.
P.S. Am I the only who's really interested in exploring the Frontier Caverns. Can't imagine how huge and complex it is considering that's where the Hydra came from. This is a rhetorical question tho cause I know a lot of us DDDA fans are hungry of more content anyways...
Yeah, very true Azix.
I still gotta make my Arisen looks shorter at max to enter on that little holes near the Frontier Caverns >D
Capcom also made the old Breath of Fire series of turn based jrpgs, but yes this seems to have been their first western style rpg.
I can also skip most of the quests. If you know the game by heart you know you can just go to locations at specific times to immediately complete entire questlines. This makes getting all vocation based weapons from Grigori a lot quicker and easier.
It hurts to imagine how OUTSTANDING a game this would be if 60% of the content wasn't cut. It's already a great game.
Just discovered your channel after a friend suggested this video, instantly subbed. Im a huge fan of Dragons Dogma and I really REALLY hope the sequel to this game hits every mark for me.
That's great to hear Biggy - I'm sure DD2 will be amazing and completely change the RPG scene.
Can't wait for Dragon's Dogma 2!!!
Me too Zephrus, 2022 is gonna be amazing.
I really enjoyed this one with the editing and all...i hope there will be a part 2 that have some info about the nameless men
Also, love your cape!
I don't know necessarily about a part 2, just for the length of video it would take to expand on everything, but some of the individual pieces could have their own videos dedicated to them easily enough.
Cheers man, glad you enjoyed it. Would love to make dedicated videos for many of these mysteries. The cape is custom made by Austin - love how he remastered it with the channel logo and all :)
3:03 I think ringing the bell causes a giant to open up a big gate lol
1 Wakestone shards work perfectly fine though. You can forge those and it'll make a new wake stone. 2. YOU CAN KICK THE OX TO MAKE IT GO FASTER?! I NEVER KNEW THIS!
"there's a building but it's inaccessible to the player" real deep iceberg shit right there...
they’re masterworks, all. you can’t go wrong.
The water god temple houses a cyclops boss in its final area, which is a reference to Polyphemus: the cyclops son of Poseidon.
After you beat the dragon, he's replaced with a Wyrm, a dragon associated with Ice, the closest ingame element to water. He's also the most cognizant of all the mini dragons; where as most of them are confused and enraged, he seems fully aware of what's happened to him and what's going on.
That was amazing! Thank you so much for this video. I hope to see more content creators come together to dig deeper into this amazing game. What blew my mind was that as awesome as Dragon's Dogma is that we actually are only playing with 40% of what the developers initially intended. Can you imagine the epic awesomeness if we had that missing 60% that got cut out of production?
It would be awesome! But at the same time I wonder if we would have loved it as much.
Some of the things I love about this game came about because of the time and budget crunches.
It's just speculation and I'd love to see a version of the game fully realized (or the cut elements integrated in a sequel), but I'm more than content to love and enjoy the product we got too.
Cheers Carlos, glad you enjoyed it!
Imagine if in the end of the game, apart from determining the next final boss, you can also determine what spawns in the next new game. You be given the freedom to create your own characters in the outpost and city, and such.
What's funny about Julien, is that even though he's a Mystic Knight, he wields his Magick Shield in the same way a Fighter or Assassin does.
This is the series I didn't know I needed in my life. Subbed and ready for the next parts!
Cheers man, looking forward to dig deeper into many of these mysteries.
We need a 2nd game of this masterpiece. Also i know some fact but that 60% of the game got cancled is sad and new for me :o
Yeah, it's really sad - it was not a good time for Capcom economically.
This is still probably my favorite game honestly
It's def still my favorite
The biggest mystery of all. Where is Dragon's Dogma 2?

Man just imagine how awesome the game would have been, all those areas and ideas.
Yeah I know dude, the potential.

After: “Y- you can kick the ox?”
In the concept book, aside from elves there was supposed to be a "Beast" race as well with half-man and half-lion properties. Anyways, great video man! If you ever need more things to talk about in the game I suggest looking into the concept book itself.
(Edit: watching the video again, it seems like you've already check some of the things from the book, nice)

Thanks Jose, yeah alot of good stuff in the concept book indeed. Want to make a video talking about all the cut content, races, enemies etc.
that beast race is confirmed for Dragons Dogma 2
I believe that Daimon’s second form, the one that you can fight as many times as you want, was Ashe’s original pawn.
I assume every arisen has their own pawn created when they become an arisen. With time the pawn starts to look and act like their arisen.
You can see it with the dragonforged.
In Ashe’s story he “takes on Orla as his main pawn.” Does that mean he replaced the pawn he started with with Orla because she had boobs? Or did Ashe never get a pawn issued to him?
If Ashe did get a pawn issued to him when he became arisen, what happened when Ashe transformed Daimon?
Would the pawn take on his form and share his desire for destruction? I think so.
I think it’s the reason why when you beat Daimon after the first time the body gets sucked into the rift, like a pawn.
It would also explain why you can fight him as many times as you want. Pawns without souls don’t die.
It's an incredibly interesting idea. Almost nothing is known about Ashe's entourage except for Olra.
This is very interesting Kelly, a really great theory to explain Daimon and his second form.
I did not know you could kick the ox, that makes trying out new characters 50% less of a chore
It's the only way to make that slog bearable. lol Just take a mage along to keep it healed.
I just discovered your channel yesterday, thank you so much for what you do! I wanna see more DD lore vids the likes of elder scrolls and fromsoft and you're making it happen.
Can't wait to see what comes next with DD2!
I just found out something about the promissory note
"A record of the coin you lent a peddler to cover travel expenses. Her name currently escapes you..."
In the early game you can find Madeleine in the cassardis inn , she asks you on an escort quest to the encampment then asks if you will pay her to travel to gran sorem. I did this quests before talking to Mercedes, I'm unsure if that makes a difference though. After you pay Madeleine she says that she will pay back, maybe. So the notes could be her repayment
This was noted, no pun intended! Still, it's only suggested. The notes still show up even if you never speak to her at all.
@@ThePawnedPawn that's true, I just started NG+ so doing quests I missed, and found where the notes seem to have originated:)
Definitely in my top 3 favorite games of all time it's amazing. Never gets tiresome either, I believe I have up to 3500 hours invested in it if you combine the time spent playing the original DD, dark arisen and then the ps4 remaster. Really hoping for a sequel🙏
Le sequel have been confirm 😫🙏
Great video man and many thanks to everyone who contributed to it! A lot of things i didn't knew and many lore bits that i hadn't pieced together.
Glad you enjoyed it Blade, it was a great learning process for me as well.
Great video. All the location footage with the camera panning looks really smooth and nice.
My favorite game of all time. I'm glad to see karathrax is still in the community. He was around back when I left in 2014.
Karathrax is an incredible and valuable source of information as well as an amazing person altogether. If it wasn't for her efforts I doubt I'd be involved at all myself in the community.
Playing this game solo the first time I’ve ever played it was the best decision
Yeah man, I enjoy solo as well mostly.
Being springboarded onto griffins, taking out the knees of a cyclops, and my pawn holding a spellcasters arms behind their back while I turn him into a pincushion with a dagger. So many fun times
Thanks for putting in an explanation at 15:42 about the "monkey" calls. I was playing this like 2 days ago and heard them and lost my shit thinking they just put monkey noises near the woods lol
at first, i hated my first few hours of dragon's dogma .... i was confused on what i had to and where to go ... but kept playing and thanks to some online guides info on which quests were necessary to move the main story along and which were side quests i started to see the path ... great game once you know you're way around and what your goal is ... would rate it a 7.75/10
I knew all of this except kicking the ox to make it go faster and the makers finger killing Grigori during the first encounter. Time to do another speedrun i guess. I'm pretty sure I can get it done in less than an hour now.
Nice man, let me know when you beat your speedrun time.
Yeah, that ox trick alone will probably shave off 40 hours or so from your speedrun
Thank you, so much!!!! For telling me about kicking that damn hecken Ox!!!!!! I dreaded that mission each and every time I would restart the game, most of the time I would just grapple it and sit on its back while it carried me to the next fight. Thank yooooooooou!!!!
1:46 this gravestone is the only place to get the material cassardite, I love how there are so many small unique things like this throughout the game and they all tell some sort of story if you're able to piece together the various elements
You can get cassardite from the chimneystacks
@@mariaconcepcionrodriguezhe2850 oh damn I didn't know that, I've probably put over 5000 hours in this game and I'm still learning new things🤣
One of my favourite action RPG games. If only they'd included all the cut content!
Thank you for the deeply insightful trivia concerning this awsome game. I remember playing it years ago when i was a teenager and had no idea about so many of these facts.
Cheers man, it was a really interesting learning prosess for my as well creating this.
I hope Salomet is actually alive in DD 2 or comes back to life and that the Wyrmking's ring comes back. I think call backs or references/easter eggs to DD:DA would be cool. I wonder if we'll be able to explore Gransys still?
A lot of us are curious about this and we look forward to callbacks too!
Only 40% of the content?!? Dragon’s Dogma was pretty damn good for just 40% of content. DDDA was a fantastic addition. DDON was a fantastic (and successful) experiment for co-op.
Edit: It was pretty fun they added the elves in DDON. Not that it did much, but Elte Deenan was a neat dungeon to run around. Just wish it played a bigger role as an end game dungeon. That and the Temple of Purification, dang that was fun to wander around in.
@@7dayspking I can only hope DD2 is given all the development it needs. The game was rough and the mmo was a grand refinement. It would definitely be a winner if it gets the polish it deserves.
Today I just learned that you can kick the ox after having the game for more than a year and having played it multiple times on my Switch. 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Have a sub..
Haha yeah, took me years to figure that out as well man.
@@The_Rift that's one of the quests I dread to complete in a game second only to the opening sequence of Skyrim. lol
@@Eliii023 yeah, the fact that almost 50% of the speedrun is this quest says alot.
Yes... I wish i knew
Amazing video! Can't wait for what's next. Hopefully Dragon's Dogma 2 delivers!
Cheers man! I'm sure DD2 will be amazing.
Great video, highly entertaining and compelling. I wish we could’ve experienced the cut content for ourselves and travelled to further areas.
Definitely a lot to ponder on. It’s very exciting. Thanks to you and your team for putting this together. I give you all a standing ovation my friend.
Truly interesting, I have learned a lot creating this video - and I feel very lucky to have good friends like you and the people in our discord to help me out.
@@The_Rift you’re a good man. I and I’m sure many others have a great amount of respect for you. Sam The Rider doesn’t ride alone :) ✊
Haha, cheers John ✊
They need to work on a full version of dragons dogma with all the maps and content for the new console platforms. it would be so amazing I put so many hours in to this game because it was just so so good. Such a gem amongst the rough.
If they're not going to announce the sequel officially then this would be a great holdover. Alas, I don't see it happening...
Till this day I still don't understand why Capcom dropped this gem of a game. We only have FromSoft dominating this genre now, which they make some of my favorite games. But I always come back to Dragon's Dogma and imagine... what if?
Elden Ring in two days and here I am thinking about Dragon's Dogma. Man what a great game.
Well there's good news my guy!
18:50 I feel like the Flameservant’s Throne is a dark souls reference. The lords of cinder from the Dark Souls franchise are servants to the flame, giving their lives to it to preserve the age of light, and a lord usually has a throne.
I lost all my progress on this game when i switched to PS5, but i’m looking for to doing everything again :D This game is so fun
I'm just from Brazil but I really like your videos
I'm from Italy 🙌

Greetings from Norway 👋
I've been playing this a lot lately
played it on 360 back in the day just got dark arisen on the ps sale for 7.99 money well spent remembered how good this game is
Dragon's Dogma 2 has one hell of an iceberg to it as well. Look forward to seeing it take shape.
Yes you can kick the ox to make it sprint, however as its health depletes it will sprint for a shorter duration until it loses all health and collapses. It wont die but it will not move while it is resting and will eventually get back up with regenerated health and continue pulling the cart. Also you can heal the ox with group curatives and even anodyne if it is within the area of effect. Lastly you can ride the on top of the oxs back with no stamina reduction
Awesome video man! A lot of work you've done here! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you Petr! It is by far the biggest project I have worked on so far - but totally worth it.
Yes! I was waiting for this video! Also do you have a Discord I can add you on?
Welcome to our discord man.
@@The_Rift I wanna join 😭
@@vaderka1833 Hey Vader, you can find the invite link in the description.
Not enough dragons dogma content out there, thanks for doing what you do
Cheers man, Dogma is my fav game so it's my pleasure to make content for it.
Watching this as a refresher now that DD2 has been announced.
Such an amazing game and somehow it did so well with over 60% of its planned content removed due to rushing deadlines.
I just hope it did well in spite of it and not because of it. My biggest fear is that a fully-realized game wouldn't be as fun or memorable. It haunts me.
@@ThePawnedPawn It was in spite of it. The game is most known by how incredible the combat is and most of the planned content was mostly focused on the story and world.
Babe wake up, Dragons Dogma 2 trailer just released, with the cut content from the first one!
You actually don't need the harpy to get to the secret chest in bluemoon tower, it's very difficult to get the timing and exact positioning but it can be done with a striders double jump.
Yeah, that's true actually.
@@The_Rift i did it a week ago in the process of getting my platinum for the ps3. Have fun yall
I am so glad you decided to leave the ox kicking part in because I had no idea you could do that and I've played since I was a kid. I'd just sit on my phone while my character clung to the top of the ox slowly moving to gran soren and only get down to fight things 😅😂
YAssss Dragons Dogma still alive and kicking!
And stronger than ever ✊
I always assumed the Duke couldn't beget children because he was technically undead, his heart still being missing. This also drove him to madness, being a husk of his former self haunted by the failure of his will.
Arisen, Duke included, are healed by Anodyne so they're not undead. There's more than meets the eye with the Duke.
Though he could just be firing blanks...
@@ThePawnedPawn I assume that it's not so much strict necromantic zombie type undead, but moreso something like elder vampires or something. They're unique so they get unique rules.
I also assume the life force, while heartless, is entirely maintained by the Dragon's own. This is likely also why the Dragon can grant fame and fortune, it grants some of its power/will to the Arisen that makes a deal with it- both it ls magical life force and will dissipating causes the duke to wither and rapidly age as a mortal again. I feel like his dialogue implies that this condition is rapidly terminal.
@@UmbraDiSol Think of it like age simply freezing. Like the body is literally frozen in age at a specific point in time.
The rapid aging is just what happens naturally when that 'pause' is removed and the body rapidly struggles to catch up to the correct age it should have been all along.
At least that's how I've always understood it.
Less raising the dead and more never allowing them to die in the first place.
i just hope the towns will be like ddon, multiplayer shared space to find a party,completing it with pawns if you aren't 4, ddon classes added, big raid missions like in ddon, crafting upgrading reforging, and the same accessories as in ddon, esp that one that allows to run faster it was so good ! another bb dungeon that feels like a roguelike with randomly generated level and special ennemies and i'm done for my life looking for a game to grow old on lol !
dripstuno mentionned that when doing DD he wanted it to be different and added the climbing system, i'm expecting a new feature that will expand combat possibilities the same way, maybe more environment usage anything like that would be cool !
DD 2 needs to have the sake combat same camera same mechanics, basically everything the same with addition of lock on, sprinting not costing stamina and more skills to slot and it will be GOLDEN
