  • UPDATE: Please check the pinned comment for a correction on the high/low preset. The low preset reduces resolution. Apologies for the oversight.
    Dragon's Dogma 2 is now onto Patch 7, promising new graphics options, 120Hz support for PlayStation 5 and much-needed CPU optimisations - but what does that look like in the actual game? Oliver Mackenzie takes a look, finding that the improvements are genuine with most of our suggestions for the game taken onboard to a certain extent - but it's still far from perfect.

    UPDATE: A quick correction: the high/low preset actually does appear to change more than just motion blur and ray tracing. In side-by-side shots on Series X, the game is clearly less detailed and lower-resolution with the low settings preset enabled, as opposed to the game running with the high settings preset with RT and motion blur disabled. Other visual settings seem to be identical. The game running with the low preset also runs faster than the game set to high with RT and motion blur disabled, at least in GPU-limited areas.
    The PS5 is similar to Series X with the low preset in image quality. Like in other GPU-limited areas of the game, the PS5 runs somewhat slower than Series X with the low preset.

      @silverheart7964 I know that, but it's not really CPU heavy.. in fact, it doesn't use much of CPU overall
      The main issue is the engine itself.. it's more than 1 decade old designed back in PS3 era, they modified it partially.. but you can't improve it that much since it's half broken in 1st place
      Even Elden Ring engine is trash.. it's same engine as Demons Souls from 15+ years ago (2009) Lol
      Japanese developers release 9/10 super great games.. but their programming team is like 1 decade latest best.. maybe they are old people and the company doesn't want to fire them, or the company don't want to lose 2% of profit to make a new engine.. no one knows Lol

      @@Jack_Sparrow131Dragon’s Dogma 2 is made in the RE Engine which was made for the PS4/XB1 gen. So I mean when you consider that RE7 and the engine has probably been in development since 2014, yeah the engine is old now. But it’s been a very optimized engine that looks and runs great on just about every game made in it, minus this one. And the key culprit I think (I’m not a dev though so take it with a grain of salt) is the RE Engine just wasn’t made to support massive open worlds like Dragon’s Dogma 2. All the Resident Evil games, DMC5, and all the other games made in this engine have been relatively linear games made in small scale condensed environments and that’s where the engine really excels.

    Honestly these performance patches are nice, but this game desperately needs a hard mode or better enemy level scaling. The fact that you become a God by level 30 is such a bummer.

    Speaking only for myself, I consider DD2 a disappointment. I loved DD1, but DD2 is severely lacking. There are almost no truly open areas, just a series of narrow paths that zig zag all over the map. That is NOT what I consider "open world." The near end content is lackluster. The simplifying armor is a mistake. Missing monsters & weapons. Too few cities. Roads are too full of enemies. And I could go on & on. I'm so disappointed with this game. Hopefully, the Devs release a quality DLC that is impactful.

The graphics are very nice with ray tracing on and feels good at 30fps. It's a shame it can't run a stable 60 fps though. I want to mention that I tried variable fps and ray tracing off. It was unstable and choppy in areas and smooth in some other areas. I also don't have a tv with vrr support or 120hz. I have a basic 60hz walmart 4k tv. Hope this helps someone!
