Hello. I have a question: Does anyone know what the classes are for DD2 and the weapon setups? I'm worried that the Strider has been split into either dagger or bow like in DDO. Can someone assuage my fears? I don't think they're going to talk about classes until it's closer to release, but Tokyo Game Show is coming up soon. They might say something then. I doubt that they'd cut the basic classes though, or alter them much in their single player game.

I doubt that they'd cut the basic classes though, or alter them much in their single player game. I'd hope so, but in the trailer, all the archer vocations are shown without daggers. I didn't notice the first time around because I was too busy clapping and making a sustained eeeeeee noise. Would love to get confirmation soon, because while not a gamebreaker, it'll be quite an annoyance to not have daggers.

Having rewatched it and looking for daggers, I didn't see any until the gryphon bit, and they didn't have bows on the character. Although I've also seen the arisen without any weapons a couple of times when they should have had one, so maybe the model only displays actively equipped weapons and others can be hotkeyed.

The last pawn I built never touched a knowledge chair nor any elixirs, he is a rather bloodthirsty fighter (scather/challenger) that kills things far too fast for my liking. My boy wants everything in the vicinity dead before I can take pictures of it. He certainly didn't learn any of that from me. There's an added wrinkle to the system that I didn't discover until quite late in the process, which is that they actually will start to drift in the inclination direction of "rented" pawns. So if you run around with a couple of pawns that have Scather and Challenger for long enough, those will increase on your pawn as well. It's probably my least favourite mechanic because I like to go for traditional party composition with pawns that have different inclinations from each other.

Reassuringly familiar. Very much in the same vein as DD which is no bad thing, If it ain't broke don't fix it. Definitely buying this.

Split Strider class confirmed. A bit of monster hunter being added with the environmental hazards. Free ox cart rides. Campsite talks with your pet cats... I mean pawns. Also a playable version in Tokyo, right now.

Finally watched the gameplay demo and it does look promising. FOr background, for those who don't know, I sort of gave up on the first one. My intention was always to go back but it just wasn't hitting the spot at the time, was a little frustrating at the time, and well the way I was playing was hard to get into it...always intend to go back...maybe soon...maybe closer to the release of 2...and either continue on from where I left off or start over.
I say this to because I don't quite remember if the archer vocations let you do melee combat or just was a range with the archer...some with the magic...or let you bash people over the head if they got close enough. While I am sure there could be engine limitations or what not for these things its not that realistic and there are games that let you do just this as well, namely DAO and DA 2. This was one of the things I didn't like about Inquisition's combat that archers and mages were limited to range. I just get the feeling from watching this its the same deal with DD 2 as well.
Otherwise looks pretty similar and an expansion on the first game's mechanics.

Gameplay looks very similar to the first one, rather rare for a sequel to a 10 years old game.

Good stuff, like the character creator, I'm very fussy about creating characters and this creator looks like it's just my cup of tea.

DD2 has an official website: www.dragonsdogma.com/2/The Action section shows some possible look for your Arisen based on vocation. They really upped the Fashion's Dogma.

The first game character creator was quite in-depth too, but it was human only. Yeah I spent so much time tinkering about in the DD CC. It's kind of ironic and a unique feature of Dragon's Dogma that I spent more time creating and tweaking "pawns" than I did on my own "arisen" and that's probably true for most other players. Particularly liked using photo mode to get some nice shots so hopefully the camera will also be enhanced in DD2.

I reinstalled DDDA and loaded my save to see where I was at. Level 43 Mystic Knight and still in Act 1 (2 quests left to do). I thought I was farther into the story. I totally don't remember how to play Mystic Knight. I do remember it required some practices and I liked it. I kinda wanted to play Strider this time thought, so I might go back to Grand Soren (I'm kinda far away thought so I might just finish the quest I'm on and pray I don't suck too much) and switch. But I need to finish ME2 first. edit: I still took her on a little run around where I was and we killed a drake somehow. In the middle of the night.

I never did manage to get into Dark Arisen for some reason. Try as I might. Maybe it was the pawn system I never did understand that. I know a got board/annoyed with the game. Wonder if I should give it a go again after all these years? See how bad I find it

Hope everyone is well and HYPED! Still hasn't quite sunk in that a game I've been playing for the better part of twelve years might finally be shelved for good. If 1) we get a decent photo mode - which it looks like we have, there was a screenshot of options, not just 'hide arisen' - and 2) I can accurately recreate all my characters, it might happen. Nah, it won't. I have stories to finish that are set in Gransys, and they need pictures. I watched all the trailers and teasers for DD2 but have stayed away from any sort of deep dives into them. I need to know as little as possible going in. Since Capcom likes their demos, I'm assuming we'll get one. If they'd just release the character creator, that'd keep me occupied until the end of March. ...and I have a nice little walk down memory lane planned for March, I have been digging through my old 360 album and stuff I saved from the Pawn Community and it is a time capsule of hilarity.

I can NOT wait to see more of your pics/stories. I almost as hyped for that as I am for the game!
I have been puttering around a little bit on Xbox and PC versions of the game but haven't really done a whole lot. Too excited for the new game maybe? I hope there isn't so much DARK in the next game

There's a character creator demo up now for all platforms! I think two weeks is enough time for me to make at least one character... Edit: After playing around with it for about 30 minutes, I noticed all the hairstyles I need aren't there, so that's a bummer. Zihark's is kinda there but it would completely cover his right eye. No high straight ponytail, no wavy shoulder-length, no luscious Barnaby mane. Boo. Here's a swift crack at Alynna, couldn't play around much because migraine.

This character creator is by far the best I've seen in any game. Only a few more weeks until I can jump into this masterpiece. My characters came out fantastic, and darker skin tones are on point. My plan is to make both my Arisen and my pawn mystic spearhands.

Releasing the Character Creator (free to play) before the main game is such a great idea.
