The Arisen I modeled after myself is far too tall and has a strangely protruding under bite now.

I don't want to restart but I hate looking at him.

Anyone else’s font kinda blurry? Idk how to fix this but it’s a little annoying. I felt like it did this in the character creation thing too.

Game seems to run great outside of the city but once I'm in it it drops to about half what I get outside. Not unplayable at all tho and game is fun and very Dragon's Dogma so far. For quests do I just go around finding people that talk to me or is there a quest board like in the first game? Also, do I need to talk to them or will they stop me if they have a quest?

Playing on my 4k TV game runs well for me capped at 60 with basically default settings and DLSS set to quality. Definitely get frame drops but it's nothing too egregious, although I haven't been to the capital yet so who knows how that'll hold up. I'm sure it'll be a better on my monitor in 1440p.

I don't remember if it was this way in DD1 but if you get killed in combat you can pause quickly before you actually fall over dead and scarf down food/potions and you basically come back to life. Pretty handy!

Okay am I understanding this quickly; if a pawn has done a quest you are about to do, you can hire them and they will help guide you to the quest location and help you complete it?

You guys seeing your Steam friends' pawns in the Rift? Someone else on my friends list is playing right now and I figured their pawn would have shown up by now, but either I can't see them or there is no easy way to tell which one of the pawns belongs to a friend.

Yeah I was wondering how to find the show friends only pawn option, because that was in the first game.

The very first pawn I saw made by another player was a shadowheart. It begins

Why do gamers like that chick so much? She's basic and has a terrible personality

I did recruit her and Robin Hood though

She's no Karlach but she's got some good moments no matter what path you take.

But also she's the only white woman on the team so of course basic people love her instead of the hot demon mommy or the tsundere alien lady.

This seems to look good and run well for me, at least in the more open areas. It's possible my standards have been heavily altered by getting used to FF7R's performance mode, so just playing a game in 4k again is nice.

I can't check my actual FPS since for some reason neither NVidia's overlay nor Fraps are working, but having the cap set to 120 is definitely smoother than capping at 60 when I'm in open areas, so it must be something notably over 60.

I'm playing an Archer, and the controls are going to take some getting used to.

Also, the way the character face creator thing works is brilliant. It's a wonderful way to give the player more freedom to create something unique without the difficulty of dealing with all the sliders.

Oh god, not again.

For PC players, apparently setting Dragon's Dogma to high priority in taskmanager provides significant framerate increases, let me know if it works as I cannot test it right now.

wtf is this gacha poo poo?

How hard is it gonna be to earn rift crystals in game if they're charging real life money for them?

The stupidest part is they tried this in the first game, too. And got the same backlash: nobody wants the microtransactions in a full price game. Also, you could always get around it by goonfriending high level people (which makes their pawns cost 0). It was a terrible idea then and remains a terrible idea 15 years later. They'll remove it all in a couple of months, I'd bet, like they did last time.

Why they didn't learn the lesson from the first one I have no idea!

Capcom has being doing this poo poo for years now and I dont understand why. They always get heavy flak for it.

Have fun playing goons! Unfortunately I have to be up early and being old now, I need my sleep.

Ugh, I should not have opened this thread and then twitch before bed lol.

So is everyone somewhat happy with the performance on the PS5?

Malaria posted:

like 75% of my friends list on Playstation is made up of goons from Dragons Dogma on PS3 and PS4.

Are we gonna do a list again with PSN ID/Whatever Xbox has so we can add each other for pawns? I think we had like a google doc previously.

That would be cool.

It WAS released on the 22nd. They just decided the release date would be midnight GMT, so people in other time zones get to play it before midnight.

Spent a few hours playing tonight - the performance is definitely not great but in the wilderness, even during combat, I didn't notice any real slowdowns and it felt basically like DD1. Can't wait to spend a lot more hours playing it tomorrow.

a friend of mine is having a weird bug, where the NPC you're supposed to escort to the capital for the quest In Dragons Wake followed him into a cave and just like, won't follow him out. he's also completely uninteractable and can't be picked up or moved manually. he tried to go to the capital without him but they turned him away and said he needed the NPC. any idea how to proceed here?

E: he apparently got in by sneaking past the guards and then getting arrested, lol
