Hell yes, can't wait for this on Friday (drat you Australia).

It's an intriguing mixture of action-RPG mechanics with some great spins on certain conventions (I'm happy they've borrowed and maybe even improved upon the Souls games' weight system). Can't wait to see the pawns everyone comes up with.

Millions - I think your Stalin is actually a bit more Trotsky actually!

The websites for JB Hi-Fi and EB Games both claim Dragon's Dogma is out on Thursday :confused:

Why are they toying with us so! You know you'll turn up in store and they'll just tell you it's not out until Friday, the evil bastards.

Does anyone know how the hell I get Madeleine to open her shop in Gran Soren?

I escorted her there and gave her the money.

I've met the Duke and done the Griffin quest. Any help?

Just go to her store and she should be there. It's that building you could enter in the slums right next to the Black Cat. It should already be open regardless.

Nope, still an empty house. I need to trigger some 'chasing shadows' quest, but I've no idea how.

Find Mason in the fountain square. Black guy wearing a reddish pink top, heavy accent.

Shiiiit, is he the guy who asks you to murder the Salvation dude?. If so, I didn't, so we parted ways.

Ok, can anyone tell me where the hell this Reynard guy is? I've got all the journal docs but still not met him.

Where does he move between? Is it too late to start the quest if I've already met the duke?

He's a traveling merchant, so he's all over the place. I've seen him anywhere from Greatwall to the Encampment.

Well, poo poo.

Thanks mate, I'll keep an eye out for him.

Apropos of not much, does giving gifts to NPCs do much (outside of quest-essential stuff).

It might have been coincidence but I gave a merchant a gift and right afterwards he had a few new items in stock.

My *holy poo poo* moment came against a cyclops too (cyclopes, plural, in fact).

I'd somehow gotten lost and wandered into an area with two fully armoured cyclopes west of the bandit castle near Witchwood.

These were fully-armoured fuckers too, and had a bunch of goblin companions.

I was getting the ever-living poo poo kicked out of me when a fighter pawn I'd recently hired decided to run like hell.

Great, I thought, even my goddamn pawns are pissing their pants.

Anyway, I'm busy bitch-slapping some uppity goblin after my last greenwarish when, out of nowhere, an enormous bolt of fire smacks one of the cyclopes in the eye.

I look up to the source about one hundred metres away, and the new pawn I'd assumed was running for her life was in fact running towards a handily placed bolter machine I'd failed to notice, and it just so happens she's a hell of a marksman.

The tide of the battle changed quite quickly, the cyclopes were busy being eye-hosed by flaming arcs of sweet justice whilst I took renewed relish in fist-loving some goblin eye sockets dagger first.

That's when this game officially became GOTY material.

The flexibility and Dire Gouge really make up for whatever other shortcomings they may have. For dropping the big monsters that matter, it does absolutely mind-bending damage.

Plus augments like 'bloodlust' double your damage and make you pretty much invincible come night time.

Does the pawn get updated automatically or only when I rest?

Updated when you rest.

I've encountered the strangest bug on PS3.

Started up the game, no sound. Anyone have this…?

Sound is fine on the dashboard, but game is completely silent (all audio is at 100 on the in-game menu). What. The. poo poo.

edit: Quitting and restarting the game fixed it, still the weirdest thing.
