If you PC specs nerds are worried about poor performance in the cities I recommend murdering everyone you meet. Won’t have to render everyone in town if they’re all dead

I got trolled extremely hard by the beggar sidequest. Followed that dude all drat day, right after he leaves the tavern and runs off to his hideout I get looped into a cutscene about a sidequest involving the Gracious Hand charity. It's long enough that I completely miss where he's going. I try again the next day, he leaves the tavern. Right after another NPC approaches me and pulls me into a dialogue about a DIFFERENT sidequest I completed the other day. But it's ok, I mash thru the dialog, I can still see him, it's fine. A 2ND loving NPC approaches me with a different set of dialogue about the exact same loving sidequest. I mash through, guy disappears, I'm hosed. 3 whole days spent following this rear end in a top hat.

Atoramos posted:On the way I found this awesome missable thing on the way. Gryphon's nest just south of the Misty Marshes, contains a portkey Man I found that exact same spot last night, but it was in the middle of an extremely disastrous expedition where all my pawns died, it was pitch black outside, and I had like 30% of my max health remaining, so I decided to not gently caress with the sleeping Gryphon. Guess I gotta go back at some point.

I think I've tried fighting Drakes like 3 different times now, wayyyyy before I'm supposed to. I've gotten close to killing them, but I can never hack it in the end. They get verrrrry pissed off when they enter phase 2 I actually managed to hit one with one of those big rear end ballistas you can find that take 10 million years to charge. It took off half its health then immediately after the Drake ordered a lightning artillery strike directly on me, killing me instantly

I made my main character Beavis and man some of the platforming in this game is NOT kind to a short Arisen edit: I found these old ruins that had this series of very precise platforms leading up to the top of this tower. I very carefully made my way up, made the final jump, and right at the end my guy was too short to clamber up to the edge and get to the top of the tower. I was playing Archer too, so no movement abilities that I know of at least... CharlestonJew fucked around with this message at 14:24 on Mar 25, 2024 |

Pretty wild that there seems to be only 2 town portcrystals. That's how many the original game had but the map was also like, a sixth of the size of this one.

I made it to Battahl early and decided to take a little trip to the royal palace. Part of me really wants to put the empress in my magic bottle just to see what happens to the story, but with only one save file I'm not gonna risk it lol. I made a little trip to the "Forbidden Magick Lab" and uh, this is not going to end well huh. Hilarious that they're doing all this poo poo in the next room over from their big public worship spot.

I finished the regalia sword quest last night before doing the coronation because I thought it would strengthen my claim to the throne or whatever. But after talking to the quest giver I’m pretty sure he’s just going to pawn it lol. Traveled to the other side of the map and back to get owned.

Third World Reagan posted:Two people want the jadite orb. Only one person wants the real one. So you give them the real one, they take it to the forger, the forger goes yep its real, and the guy is happy and walks away. The other character doesn't care that he got the forgery and doesn't check it. that's the objectively worse solution as you don't get to gently caress over the rich guy that way and the other guy is presumably killed

Idk if this has happened to anyone else but my main pawn just randomly drops dead sometimes. Full health, no enemies around, no cliffs nearby to fall off of. Boom, guy just drops dead instantly. A lot of times it's happened off screen but last night he just fell over dead right in front of me. I uh, don't think it's dragon ligma? This happening to anyone else?

Thundarr posted:Are there enemies nearby that inflict poison? If you are poisoned and then poisoned again you take massive damage very quickly. That could do it if there's nothing to fall off of in walking distance. nope and nope. Like full health, didnt drop off a cliff or anything, not poisoned. Just bam, drops dead and I have to revive him for no reason. It's funny so it's nbd but I'm so curious how it happens.

I never touched any of the magic classes in DD1, and after trying them out in DD2 all I can say is that I was sorely mistaken. It has been incredibly fun to knock poo poo up in the air with a big rear end iceberg. I think Archer pawns are programmed to do trick shots on the enemies you knock into the air too, I found a Timothee Chamolet pawn that loves doing stunts like that.

three times now I have tried to get into this bandit camp area that seems to only be accessible via one of those hand pulley things in Battahl and three times while I was cranking this lovely little cart across the game spawns a gryphon who divebombs it and instakills my entire party. these things are nothing but a cruel joke from the devs

It took me wayyyy too drat long to get my pawn learn how to speak elvish. Apparently it’s completely random which NPCs will give you the tome, which NPCs will give you something else entirely, and which ones will just give you nothing at all. Way more of a confusing process than it should be.

Magmarashi posted:Unsure what game you are playing but this is the Dragon's Dogma 2 thread and we are talking about Mystic Spearhand which is a blender Yeah if you have any experience with Devil May Cry 4 or 5 it’s basically the charged shots mechanic from those games, you can charge them up during any and all animations. You can stunlock any large enemy by hitting them with slow, wailing on them with The Star Wars Kid combo, then hitting them with another slow as soon as it wears off. It’s extremely powerful but so are most of the other classes so personal preference really.

FauxLeather posted:Now that I've finished the game and cleared the True End, I'm fairly confident in saying that overall I'm pretty disappointed, but had a great time for enough of it. More Dragon's Dogma is never a bad thing, but DD2 is a bit of a sidestep that mostly distances itself from what I found so stellar about the original in the first place. This is largely how I feel about the game as well. The larger map doesn't really have much interesting to justify the vastly inflated size, and most of the enemies are the same goblins/harpies/wolves I've been fighting for nigh on 13 years now. From the new creatures they've added, Minotaurs are just lamer Eliminators, the Sphinx fight has a lame gimmick, and I think the Medusa only spawns in one very specific location? Even when I did fight it it just aimlessly meandered around while my party circle beat it to death.

Clocks posted:I don't know that anything locks up but there's a big scene that happens after you pass through the battahli sealed door. I'm actually not entirely sure what happens if you port out at that point. If you port out the game will give you random cutscenes here and there cutting to what the giant is doing at the volcanic island. After a while the guards will just take care of the giant all by themselves, no need for intervention from the player. It's pretty rad lol
