To the people blaming content creators for not mentioning mtx: You need to understand that RU-vidrs/Reviewers are not trying to sell you the game. They’re not twirling their mustaches to be evil, they just want to review the GAME for what it is. If they didn’t buy the mtx, or only gave it a passing glance in the media kit(which not all creators got) then of course they weren’t going to mention it in the review because it wasn’t relevant to their review of the game. I guarantee had I been given a review copy, I would have failed to mention them, because it wouldn’t even be a thought. However, people will be more aware going forward. Your anger at reviewers is misplaced, it should be at the studios/executives who make the decision to include them in the game store.

@aa2513 Месяц назад

I think a lot of the anger is because so many people moved their attention to RU-vidrs because they are deemed more trustworthy than the captured mainstream media. any hint of creators going down that path is mega disappointing and frustrating.

@chito2701 Месяц назад

the problem isn't really just about the MTX it's about the game as a whole, the fact the CAPCOM prioritized the MTX leaving the game severely undercooked, missing important basic features that should have been in the game in the first place, mix with a horrible performance, barely able to get stable 60 fps on PC with occasional crashed is disgusting. as for the MISPLACING of people's anger, it's completely justified as those reviewers have no problem bashing other games for doing the same Corpo GREED practices as the company they're trying to defend. but hey? we are all HYPOCRITES, let's not cheery pick.

Honestly a good idea. If it doesn't run well there's little you can do. Makes me realize though why the console market has it's place. The average PC is probably hard pressed to play it, I have a feeling that's why it got review bombed on steam v.s. critics reviews. Also something like 67% of big game release seem to need a NVIDIA update a day or two after their releases and then start running better. It feels pretty timeless though so you're not really missing out on anything you won't get later. First one, I've heard, isn't so different and much cheaper when it goes on sale. 6 dollars I think?

There is zero reason to have multiple character save files. This game lets you swap classes whenever you want. It allows you to re-customize character appearance. And when you play this game for 50 to 100 hours, you wouldn't want to start a new character because it would be a much bigger hassle.

@mf_hume Месяц назад

The point at 8:14 seems super underappreciated in these discussions. When you don't buy a game, it's not obvious whether that's because you disapprove of the micros or because you're not interested. It's a fuzzy signal at best--albeit one with greater financial consequences for the game. But buying the game but not the micros sends a pretty clear signal about your preferences.

@AdoreYouInAshXI Месяц назад

Except the microtransactions literally cost them nothing to include in the game. Do people bitch about them, yes. But as long as the game sells they're not going to care if they sell any MTX's at all because there is zero investment. I'm not saying you SHOULD buy them of course, but I doubt you're really sending much of a message by refraining. In order to send a real message you'd need to boycott the game completely until they are removed.

@mf_hume Месяц назад

@@AdoreYouInAshXI I actually thought about saying something like this in the original comment but didn’t want it to drag on. I pretty much agree with you there. I think the type of mtx in DD2 are fairly low cost in terms of dev time (compared to say cosmetics where someone had to spend time creating a new asset). So I don’t see them going away any time soon. They’re going to be cost effective even if only a few people buy them. But I still think it’s very difficult to send a clear signal to Capcom by not buying the game. If there was some sort of platform for coordinating and committing to a boycott of products with mtx that’d be a different story.

@signa8 Месяц назад

It's also worth mentioning that there's some moderately strong indicators that the DLC exists as malicious compliance for shareholders and not because anyone wanted them in this game at all. It's still speculation, but it's not nearly as bad as it looks at first glance.

I'm surprised I've seen almost nobody mention that people weren't just having performance issues, but it was actually crashing every few minutes for some people on PC. So between that, the mtx, and just the missing features of not having multiple save slots or even being able to start a new game at all, I'll definitely be waiting a while on this one. Glad to see it seems they're working on the issues, but it really shouldn't be acceptable for games to keep launching like this. But I guess they will so long as people keep buying and pre-ordering them.

@JamesGowan Месяц назад

I HATE when a mission is locked behind a pre-order. Ubisoft is notorious about doing that with their assassin’s creed series. I think that’s wrong! If a company makes a weapon or armor available as MTX, I expect those to be in the game, even if it’s later in the game. I believe Dark Souls 2 had pre-order stuff (weapons) that was available later on anyway. That’s fine! Sometimes people need incentives to pre-ordering and at the end of the day, the game company is a business. Even the greatest painters in the Renaissance period painted for money. Rift Crystals, keys that break, items that change your appearance, camping kits… those are all in the game anyway. Capcom isn’t locking anything behind a paywall that’s exclusive to MTX so I’m not against it.

@zoloegaming Месяц назад

The micro transactions are so silly and, like you said, you can obtain the items relatively easily in-game. In fact, the selection is so weird and silly that I feel like it’s the developers sending a middle finger to whoever said they were required. 😅

I absolutely love the game. It's amazing to explore the world and immerse yourself in it. Plenty of customisation too. I've played for around 10 hours and my only issues were some little stuttering here and there (barely noticeable-although I don't play on max settings, but my pc is years old too), the other is missing ground textures. Now the latter is really annoying. Looks weird and gave me multiple jumpscares when I thought a chasm is before me I've almost just fallen into. I believe they will fix it soon tho in an update. Also annoying and immersion breaking it may be, the game is so enjoyable that I happily played like this too.

Perhaps they didn’t build the game around new repeat playthrough and build variety, and instead built it around the systems of minmaxing your NG+ builds?

@ryanwelton7020 Месяц назад

Also just to note, you can only buy each mtx only once. So it’s not them making the game tedious on purpose. If that was the case purchases would be unlimited. I feel like the idea was to make it slightly easier on those that want to do things quicker. Not that it really does when you are limited to one of each. At the ends of the day most companies sell some kind of add on or convenience for an extra price. So I like mtx? No. Does it ruin a game when it’s not in your face and doesn’t affect gameplay or completely undermine progression? No. I think people just like to be angry. The real issues are the save file and performance (if you are experiencing it). I shouldn’t have to jump through hoops to start a new game. Don’t mind one file, but give me an option to start over.

@Dreggy990 I'm not a developer so maybe I have no idea what I'm talking about.

Heck it's a single player game, I don't need other pawns let me make 3 of my own. Just my opinion. I feel like they definitely could of design the game differently for this to not be an issue.

@istheworldreal Месяц назад

Although strider being gone and replace by thief and archer should've been expected, DD1 has 9 class and 4 of them is literally the same dagger+bow (ranger, strider, magick archer, assassin) the only difference is the skill in imo is better of like this, yellow class is just too much, and i can't believe i say this but too OP even for single player game.

@Pcgamingfixes Месяц назад

@@istheworldreal They tried to make this games exploration feel like death stranding. I know the creator wants a slower adventure approach but the maps feel so crowded and pointlessly dense. They took the worst area of dogma 1 ‘witchwood’ and turned it into the entire game. I understand what they were trying to nerf with changing vocations but I feel like dragged combat back tremendously and make the game much less predictable so combat no longer feels quick and snappy and satisfying like devil may cry like dogma 1 was but instead it’s slower now and the physics of your character also draw away from having direct control of your character. It’s all meant to hamper you so it’s harder and you have less control. That aids to the idea of a more realistic adventure sim just like death stranding. This isn’t a good sequel. It’s a completely different way of presenting these ideas. Like how a hamburger and a steak are the same thing just executed differently. I miss the idea and methods of executing those ideas in DD1. The philosophy of DD2 isn’t a terrible one, it’s just not a good sequel. It’s a remake aimed at a different purpose.

Great take on the controversy. One small nuance: I don't think they're selling some of the items you mentioned. The fast travel item is just a port crystal, which doesn't actually let you fast travel. It just lets you set another location to fast travel to (using another in game consumable which they don't appear to be selling). I also don't think they're selling a way to make a new character from scratch: that just flat out doesn't exist, but it sounds like they're planning on adding it in an update. Obviously, this doesn't really change anything and all of your points still hold true. Just wanted to put it out there. Again, really balanced take and a great video.

( Coming from someone who played the original game in it's earlier days ) My older brother and I absolutely adored the original Dragon's Dogma. We really thought it was the most unique third person action game for the time. But with how disrespected and underrated the title was compared to the bigger mainstream games that everyone was obsessing over, we honestly just thought it would never get a sequel. ( I lost count of how many shows and games I've been into that have just been screwed over by mainstream media and never got the attention they deserved only to be left with dead franchises that I loved growing up watch fade Into Obscurity ) But then when Dragon's Dogma 2 was officially announced my bro and I called eachother, both of us were hyped as hell. "DRAGON'S DOGMA IS BACK BRO!" We loved the original game we both picked up Dark Arisen when it came out to further support the awesome game. We only wish that Dragon's Dogma online, officially came to the West. But it was always a blast to check out content creators and see what was up. Now here we are enjoying the awesome sequel. I pre-ordered the deluxe edition, downloaded the Creator/storage demo ASAP the moment it became available, and have been enjoying the game since it released at 12:00 midnight on March 22nd. (what an awesome weekend) My older brother and I have been enjoying the game and sharing tips and tricks with each other as we get further in the game completing quests slang enemies and leveling up. Coming home after work and running errands feels great to just kick back and settle down again to enjoy a fun game that is just a blast to play... But the *MASSIVE* amount of discourse and drama that this single player game has created is just absolutely insane! Sure of the game has issues: Glitches/Bugs, performance struggles, and of course drama between consumers and Developers... But honestly can we be real and just admit that no game is free from any of that when it comes to these days of just modern gaming as a whole? Despite the issues and drama that this game has brought up over the microtransactions and 1 save file is just wild. This is why I'm glad I never got involved with any social media an stay away from chronically online drama-obsessed people IRL. 😂 Despite the issues that this game has been having I'm enjoying the game and that's all that matters for me. If anyone loves fantasy setting with action games, give Dragon's Dogma 1 and 2 a shot. This series deserves far more love then it's ever been given and I'm glad it's finally being brought to the public eye now. 🦁🏹

I'm not a fan of the MTX in a $70 game, but there were two bigger reasons I refunded the game. 1) Having a single save file in a single player RPG where I'm going to want to try out different characters/decisions is stupid. 2) The game ran worse than Wo Long, which up till now was the only game to ever dip below 60 fps even at 1080p on my rig. So for me, I'm hoping modders and maybe the devs can fix these problems by around the winter sale, and maybe then I'll pick it up and give it a shot for $35. But IMO they don't deserve $70 for this.

Also if you have the character creator that was released early then I hear it needs removed too. Only one save was a thing in the original too. I heard someone say this was limited this way due to something that happens end game but I dont know if that’s true.

Don't buy the game at all and it might be interpreted you don't want games like DD2. Pick your battles wisely and always be on the lookout for nuance.

This practice needs to be stamped out but like with most things in this world money talks and people will buy these things. Unless it gets made illegal to do we're stuck with them.

Imagine if torrent was a microtransaction item

Yea that would be ridiculous. Now imagine if they sold torches for $.99 how confused you'd be why people were upset. Or like 1k souls for $2. You'd be like guys why are you angry. 1k souls is nothing. You literally go to campfire and kill one mob and you're there.

@@otoanskye the defense of micros in DD2 is dog water at best. It would have been better if they were cosmetic skins or something cause that at least would be more reasonable to exist than items you can get in the game.

@@SurprisedAtom-ly8jf The issue I have is why you make this game you're example of shit MTX. Literally Resident Evil 4 has 97% overwhelmingly positive and has more impactful MTX. Diablo 4 launched $70 and spent more time loading their cash shop with shit then actually making a good game. They also put up a $60 mount skin while neglecting all the fires in the game. You know what capcom does with mtx money? They put it back into the game. Look at MHW. It has had so much post game support because of microtransactions. DD1 had a robust end game that was support by Capcom for quite some time. You guys shitting on a GOOD game because it has shitty MTX is like those idiots shitting on Hogwarts Legacy because the author has opinions that differ from others. j

@@otoanskye I never said the whole game is bad. I just said I don’t get why capcom put MTX if they are pointless, all it does is “strain” their reputation and affect the view the game negatively as shown with the overblown drama around it and yes know their is a lot worse than MTX since people can’t even play the damn game.

@@otoanskye I almost forgot to add about your last sentence about the hog warts legacy boycott, I think that controversy was stupid, because the writers thoughts on politics shouldn’t even be associated with a video game inspired by her work.

I have heard from several people that the items from the microtransactions are in the world but there are so few of them! I have also heard that the teleport item is rare in the world! I don't know who to believe anymore! So, I am just going with my gut, I'm not getting this until it maybe goes on sale! I am pissed that they NEVER said anything about the microtransactions before release! It would have been different if they had & told people these are convenience items that you can get in game through natural play! I don't believe it is worth the $70 charge! To me this was just pure greed! I agree with you about the microtransactions are totally predatory!

They are not few. There are plenty of them, and they are essentially useless. You have to be du*** to buy them.

I get spikes anywhere from 60-100 frames as low as 44 frames in the city. I have a high end PC. I switched the dlss to auto from quality which seemed to help a little bit. It spikes alot but this games is amazing! It does need to be optimized. Once it is, this is not a game to pass up!

Actually the pricing for the stuff in the MTX in game is kinda bad three players rent out my pawn and I only got around 300 RC for it so unless alot of people are using your pawn you're not gonna get much and the tool to change pawn inclination cost 2000 RC a pop at the rift store
