I've settled on my pawn. I wanted as close to a goblin as I could.


If you use tattoos at a large scale, you can get more exotic skin colors, which is pretty helpful.
Also, to make tattoos look more natural, turn down the opacity to 70-80.

Hmm. I'm a little worried by the emphasis on ~real travel~ since the biggest thing that made me bounce off pre-DLC OG DD was the constant goddamn backtracking. Before they loosened up the portcrystal supply every quest felt like "Oh, please take this letter to Ser Bleminald, halfway back across the map past 6,000 wolves, 500 goblins, a harpy swarm and one inexplicably murderous bandit with a 5-mile aggro radius, and somehow inconveniently equidistant from literally every other task you have." I hope there's something other than lovingly rendered pictures of meat to keep it from getting monotonous.

From what I've gathered, while they have a focus on real travel, the world is much more dense and better designed.
I'd wager the quest structure is also more refined so that if you do have to backtrack it won't be nearly as tedious.

They've also mentioned it being more open world by modern standards, so that gives me a lot of hope about tedium. It would be VERY surprising if they learned their lesson from lovely Ubisoft games, tho.

I'm not seeing any real hype around the Trickster...is there just not a lot of info on them currently?

It SOUNDS interesting but I'm leaning Spearhand for sure.

There's plenty of info, it's just so odd that no one has anything to say till we play it.

The best controller right now is the 8bitdo ultimate 2.4ghz. It has Nintendo buttons, but I'm pretty sure it's fairly easy to open up and swap the buttons around if you want it. Not that you need to for DD2, because as mentioned the game lets you select which platform's prompts you want.

Just want to confirm that it's seriously the best controller available now and the price is very reasonable.

Can you mix Trickster with something else through Warfarer?

Warfarer gets access to all weapons and most skills but has lower stats. So you can make any hybrid build you want but it's not going to outshine any singular build.

I desperately want Itsuno to do an action game where we can swap between characters and do MVC poo poo, but I don't want Dragon's Dogma to be that.

Pawn swapping could be neat but if it's anything like Genshin Impact, it would feel less like a team and more like each character is just a utility font.

GI had some neat ideas but the need to rapidly switch through your roster got old pretty fast.

Question I have for y'all - while the Arisen can swap vocations, which vocation will be your "main" and which vocation are you picking for your pawn?

Mystic Spearhand for me, mage or warrior for pawn, depending on what skills MS has.
Magick Archer getting more support/healing will drag me back, though. I just know it. I love playing magic support.

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.

Goddamn, I unlocked Warfarer at the end of the game.
I had everything I needed for it, I just didn't know that's what it was for.

Anyway, fought the dragon, it was piss-easy, got to the ending and pissed off a force ghost so much that I got to do it again.
Now I'm in The Unmoored World, which I only got to because I pieces together something from my time in Bitterblack Isle.

This poo poo rules and I feel like such a silly boy for hoarding all my Ferrystones.

Endgame stuff -

How quickly did y'all kill the colossus?

I ended up jumping on it while it went under a bridge, then quickly took out all the spikes in it. Ended up finally killing it while it was in the lava fields. Probably could have killed it earlier but all the spikes were out and I wasn't sure where to stab it from there. Grabbed one of the mini-ballista near the lava fields to take it out but I'm wondering if I could have ended up sooner..

Right after the first little bridge. Was pretty disappointed in how easy it was but that's Magic Archer for you!

The fully enclosed ones? You can go inside and ride along in real time, but you can't sit down in one and doze off.

Fun fact, if you can't cross the checkpoint yet you can hop in the fancy wagon that spawns going towards Battahl and ride it through the checkpoint. Nobody will bother you unless the guards see you get out on the Battahl side (then it takes a day or two for them to drop aggro)

I've been playing with the carts a lot lately. I might make a separate post about that

E: come to think of it I'm pretty sure the fancy wagons are supposed to be Phaesus'

It is, indeed, Phaesus' cart.
If you get across the checkpoint on top of his cart, you get an achievement.

They really need to make an infinite version of Unmoored World that scales with time.

Make it the final, most extreme skill check. I snoozed through most of the combat and really want to Test My Might.
