Absolutely zero reason not to do regular online co-op in addition to pawns, certainly not some bizarre idea of DD purity. E: The one good thing about the otherwise extremely bizarre and bad DD Online was the ability to watch your friend get thrown to their death off a cliff while trying to climb an ogre or something like that.

Half the fun in DD is in the pawn system and co-op would greatly reduce its value. Having competent party members who don't just run off to grab skulls in the middle of a fight is antithesis to the DD way of life.

I bought and refunded CONVERGENCE: A League of Legends Story within 2 hours, I'm not sure what kind of game it's trying to be. The games it takes influence from are in-your-face obvious, but it all feels like a chinese whispers interpretation of it. You've got combat somewhat similar to Dead Cells but much, much slower, you've got rooms that lock you in like old beat 'em ups but without the pseudo-3D floor to move on (and it feels like this is every second room), "undodgeable" attack indicators (??) instead of unblockable ones, and probably the biggest issue for me was that it leans heavily into metroidvania tropes like mobility unlocks & areas gated behind those abilities, but drops a map marker down telling you to go back to places you couldn't reach instead of leaving it open to explore. It also introduces a core mechanic of being able to rewind time very early on, and takes every opportunity to put in unreadable platforming and blind jumps instead of using it in any fun way. Has anyone played further into it and can say whether that improves, or if it's just more of the same?

the pawn system and the exclusion of multiplayer has always been an explicit design decision itsuno has had since the original inception of dragon's dogma back when it was originally just referred to as BBS RPG. forcing multiplayer into it would be bad, actually see also: all of the seventh gen single-player games that publishers forced multiplayer into that caused the entire game to suffer

Capcom has been adding features to their other games (chiefly Monster Hunter) that feel like they were things lifted from DDog2 development, like the AI followers in MHRise Sunbreak. I'd expect vastly improved pawn AI for the new game, because dang those AI followers are actually quite good.

it was an adequately spooky first game relying on the developer's own inadequacy with 3D graphics to enhance the disturbing nature of the animatronic creatures, but then it went head up rear end over trying to build a lore for itself with all the following games the creator is a right-wing dipshit who donated money to all sorts of republican politicians, which was literally discovered by a goon on SA (Endorph) and it exploded from there, causing him to cry about cancel culture and run off like a lil bitch

scott cawthorn is a far-right nutjob who's been pumping considerable sums of money into republican party campaigns for years. naturally the army of tweens that make up his fanbase have been choking on the news ever since it came out (from these very forums no less) e: son of a bitch!

i wouldn't even say forspoken syndrome, just like... video game writers spent so long writing oorah dialog/one-liners for war games that they have no idea how to write anything else. and they've grown up consuming nothing but big budget blockbusters and so that's all they know how to pull from like you could train GPT4 on a bunch of bog standard action/military movies from the past 20 years and it'd come up with dialog similar to that trailer

Now, I don't know about you, but I really would rather they not complete that. So if you can find the time or can be bothered, any chance you can, you know, head on over there and uh... 'negotiate' with them to stop?"

If I can understand the dialogue you've already failed. It should be drowned out by the thumping heavy-metal soundtrack, cacophonous gunfire, and the screams of my enemies.
