  • To celebrate the reveal of Dragon's Dogma 2 being in development I felt the need to go back and revisit this Dragon's Dogma long form analysis/ retrospective/ gameplay/ talkthrough/ impressions/ commentary thing. And it definitely helped that the majority of you guys wanted to have one superlong vid compiling all three.
    I have made a few minor changes as well as combining it with the bitterblack and Ur-dragon videos for a complete experience.
    I have also made a few changes to the sound, volume, denoised a few parts as well as completely re-recorded some parts.
    If you watch the individual parts and then the SUPER-cut, you’ll notice the differences.
    I know this is not quite a retrospective in the traditional sense, but I wanted to do something different. And after getting Private Sessions’ blessing to do this after seeing his Skyrim retrospective it kinda just snowballed into this mess.
    I have however been super lucky with friends that have helped me out during this project. My best man has watched through all my recent vids several times to help me pick out and fix minor things and giving me ideas etc. Spoogie Derpington has also been super helpful during this time. So a huge shoutout to him as well. Thank you for being my therapist when I’ve needed to vent lol.
    Also I know I’ve glossed over a lot of stuff in this vid. I just covered what I felt was most interesting and entertaining.
    I feel I should clarify why Quina has been captured by Grigori. The game has an “affinity” stat that governs how much npc’s like you. Giving Quina the Blessed flower raised her affinity to max and thus she is our “beloved” as Grigori calls it.
    Also how AWESOME isn’t it that we finally have a Dragon’s Dogma 2 reveal? I cant wait and I am positive Itsuno and the original team will deliver something for us all to enjoy!
    Also hope you guys like my new avatar and thumbnails. I wanted to do something different.

    We also have to talk about how fucking SICK the "final fight" is. Great loot, amazing cinematics, gorgeous scenery, absolutely memorable.

    I started playing this game because of the reviews saying how similar it was to games I love such as Dark Souls & Skyrim, this has been such a unique and fun experience, I'm halfway through and I'm having a blast, I watched the video only to the point I'm currently on and I've been enjoying it, good job dude.

    My favorite part of this game is the side quests and how you get locked out of future ones. I kinda cheated and looked stuff up in the wiki. There is actually an interacion with the salvation leader before you ever step foot in the capital (didn't even get it my first playthrough) so you should acutally know about Salvation before you get any quest investigating them. The other is like the Witch hunt quest; its needed if you wanna complete the king bay leaf quest, since it unlocks the hidden grove in the witchwood where it grows. Also that quest gives lore about how pawns can become human, be given the gift of strong/free will and ambition. Bonus, Selene stays in your house in Cassardis so she can craft things. But you only get the quest after chilling in the capital square and overhear npc citizens talk about a group of people going to hunt a witch. The mines quest (to clear out monsters) was a good side quest as well, since you could buy a thing to expand and dig out more of the mine (which i think would be a excellent thing for them to expand on in 2, expand the mine map but oops there's a gorgon). Learning about how this game does quests and game stages and world interaction is the tricky part. You could easily skip a lot of stuff or even get lost. Or like i did, get ambushed by a dragon while passing through devilfire grove for the first time (trying to get to the shadow fort) and and have your only pawn get possessed.

    The devotion spend on this video, holy hell. Great content, as always! I found out about the game just last years, sadly. Since than I havent let go of it and I am currently doing my first full Mystic Knight run. What a hidden gem, I am glad we get a sequel.

    You could’ve revived Julian for his shield w a wake stone. He goes in the dungeon when revived where you can talk to him to get it

    Now I will tell you a story on how I brought that game. At first, I had spring break way back in March 2020. Little did I know that when I purchased that game, I did not predict that the government was going to shut down the whole entire town putting everybody on lockdown. So I felt lucky that I purchased that game for $5 and I purchased that game 1 week before Trump declared a state of emergency. I at first thought I will just use my spring break and relax but it turned out my spring break was going to lasts longer then expected until my class was going to be placed in zoom. So Dragon's Dogma became my quarantine game. This game was how I spent my lockdown days.

    Just bought the game again last month for like $5 on Xbox One. I remember seeing it on an article about "games like Skyrim" and it said this had way better combat, and looked up some FAQs to see what they thought. Ended up getting Dark Arisen on my 360 from one of those bargain game stores where you can exchange games for way less than they're worth. I loved the game so much, and it will definitely go down as one of my favorite games of all time, with Witcher 3 and Nier Automata. I'm on my second playthrough on a lvl 70 sorcerer with a warrior pawn (Bazil is the pawn's name, rent her, she's alright), I've been enjoying the game still. Still have yet to truly experience the game too, since I've only done the main quest and Dark Arisen, not even Quina's questline. Have a long ways to go till I'm lvl 200, can't wait to get there

    Selene best girl. She has my favorite ending dialogue. It's kinda sad.

    Throwblasts were my saving grace on my first playthrough. I don't use them anymore now, new game or not but they really helped until I got the hang of it.
