Doubt you can play several different races, and instead beastmen just exist in the setting.
Still neat that they are in the game.
pawns can be cat at least
Alright, missed that. Yep, cat race playable confirmed.
You see him being controlled in trailer too
cute fem rook
They can be player characters too you see a male cat person warrior and female cat person archer briefly in the trailer.
They show the PC as a beastman in the fucking trailer, you retard.
If Pawns can be beastkin, then the Arisen almost certainly can too.
There would be no reason to add cat people if you couldn't play as them. No such restrictions existed in the first game. And beastmen player characters were planned for the first game but cut like so much else.
Nah, look at the part where the warrior is attacking goblins in the trailer, its a beastman.
Do you want me to go in my attic and get the concept art out? This shit was already there just never had the budget.
>Doubt you can play several different races
Black the entire point of this game was among other to allow us to play other races like elves and beastmen, hell in the first one you had pointy ears and could play as a dwarf
The warrior arisen in the trailer is a kot.
>play warrior 95% of the time for the past decade
>warrior gets center showing in reveal trailer
>it looks great
This man is a blessing.
BUT will the Warrior not be shit this time around? I played the entire game as Warrior and BBI. The fact that they best way to play Warrior was to just spam jump attacks was really lame. The mod that makes warrior actually fun to play is a must for PC players. I really hope that Warrior straight from the gate this time around is a good class
I have nothing to discuss with a greatsword max shitter. Any anons thinking of picking up warrior, don't be like this pussy. Just remember it's the stealth CC class.
>play the entire game just jump attack spamming
uhm ok? greatsword max is fun as hell and makes those unused moves actually useable.
There isn't one move the vanilla greatsword has that's "unusable" spaz. Hell the complaint most people have is you can't use all of them. You didn't play through the game as warrior if you played that shitty mod. Shield? Moves buffed sky high? gtfo of her with that pussy shit.
I played it on my PS4 back in 2014 a few times. I replayed it on PC with the mod. It was a ton of fun. Jump attacks were the best way to kill things as Warrior there's just no denying that
I know you can only follow guides and not really think about the why but you should put some effort in some time. Jump attack spam is effective because it's quick. That's all. Warrior isn't a damage class anyway. you get more health and defensive boosts than attack. It's actually a crowd control class.
Where are you guys finding the trailer without the god awful bitrate
Capcom's own channel?
oh 4k, sweet, thanks anon.
Wasn't the first game originally supposed to be set in the Red Earth world? I know there was some concept art that had the cat/Leo race in it.
No, you're thinking of some concept art from Daigo Ikeno that he used Leo from Red Earth as a basis for, not knowing that the game lacked the resources to do multiple races.
Riding mounts?
Looks more like just climbing a Gryphon to attack it.
That's what I've been hoping for. The climbing system was practically made for this ability. I want to be able to tame some beasts and ride them around.
Cannot fucking wait.
>Male
>Fighter
>Sexy cat pawn as ranger
Simple as
Im excited for it, but they failed to show how much it differs from the first one. Because DD1 was great but it could be more.
post yfw french words show up on screen followed by the CAPCOM logo
I felt like I achieved something by instantly knowing what it was based on the quote font
It's weird how reassuring specifically the French words are. I guess it's because that would be such a normal thing to not include again, so it being there is particularly indicative of the game being created from a similar frame of mind.
I'm convinced the II in the title is just a marketing thing and they're basically just doing the Dragon's Dogma they envisioned over a decade ago before budget cuts, timing, and technical limitations cut the game literally in half. You know what that means right?
WE'RE GOING TO THE MOON
Now I'm expecting we play as our pawn from the DD1 cycle
Yeah, that seems likely to me, although it wouldn't surprise me if they don't do it 1:1 just because I'm sure they're aware that many people have seen the original plans for the game and they probably want to surprise people.
It'll probably do a bit of double-subversion. Expect a sequel, turns out to be a 'sort of just what if DD1 was what we wanted to make', but it actually has some stuff that makes it a proper sequel.
the moment i saw a griffin i knew what that was
I just hope they don't degrade the character creator and you can still make monstrously ugly characters and skimpy witch e-bois.
This has potential to be greatest game of all time as long as they don't fuck it up.
Apparently Street Fighter 6's character creator is basically the same tech as DD2 will have, so.
I haven't played SF6 because i have standards. Can you make e-bois or not?
More importantly, can you make good looking characters at all since SF6 has none of em.
Kind of and yes. I haven't seen a convincing child yet but I've only really seen Ganker's attempts and I don't trust that. Even as somebody that's going to get SF6, DD2's character models look WAY better than SF6's and in DD1 every NPC could be recreated with the in-game tools.
>in DD1 every NPC could be recreated with the in-game tools
thats a good point
weird how good characters can look if you don't just facescan everything
SF6 isn't facescanned either, it's more that they kept the cartoony style of the series while adding detail and more realistic lighting (the lighting is like 75% of the reason shots of SF6 can look bad, the models on their own for most of the cast actually look good separate from the lighting engine).
You couldn't really make convincing children in dragon's dogma, either. Well at least not shotas. There was only one torso that sort of worked and no legs that went well with it at the appropriate heights. And of course you just had to use a grown man's voice pitch shifted up. e-bois might have worked better, I don't know. Hopefully capcom has done the opposite of what doomposters have said and have actually made it easier to make child characters.
Get killed nonce
SF6 creator is the minimum DD2 will have. I'd expect at least a little more freedom since SF6 has to keep to a more cartoonish artstyle and the models have to at least kind of match the animations of the playable characters.
Im ready, to the moooon
I remember all those innocent e-boi pawns, cruelly tossed into the brine
I will never forget
And I will not stop until every single beastren pawn meets the same fate
THIS I SWEAR
Capcom just uploaded the trailer in higher quality
>1st trailer
>1st
When would there be another?
I wonder what the weird crystal thing the "duke" is wearing is? And between the lines early on about a "true" arisen and you being a "mummer" and then Grigori's lines at the end, it kind of sounds like your character somehow got screwed in to being the Arisen when you otherwise shouldn't be.
Seems like the spheres you used to revive people and yourself
Doesn't really seem like a wakestone to me. I don't remember them being that pointy or glowy.
Looked more like a Cursed Dragon's crystal heart. Makes me think this tosser is either keeping himself necromanced, or being controlled by something else.
>And between the lines early on about a "true" arisen and you being a "mummer"
Why are you assuming it's about the MC and not the king?
Mostly Grigori's line. If it was just the earlier ones then, yeah, the dick with the crystal would seem at least as likely to be the imposter. But I figure that's Grigori talking to us and is basically like "yeah, sucks you got saddled with this. But you know how it is. Eternal return and all that."
You aren't the mummer they're referring to the "Duke" most likely the player obviously being the true Arisen basically a retread of the plot from the first game.
Looks good. Kinda disappoint is gran soren again but I'll take the other stuff they got on offer.
I'll be fine if it turns out like Gran Soren is 10% of the game
>stranger of paradise
>dragon’s dogma 2
I can’t handle two years in a row of such joy after so many years of pain. All roads lead to Gran Soren, truly. I haven’t been this hyped for a game in 15 years.
>Soft Reboot of First Game
>furfags
man my hype has been obliterated
Beastmen were planned for first game tho
I havent played DD in a long time, but if you told me this was a remake, I would believe you.
It was always going to be another part of the dragon cycle shit.
>it's SUPPOSED to be shit
have a nice day.
you're mentally ill
a soft reboot of dragon's dogma 1 is all I ever wanted. That game had SO MUCH potential lost in development and now there's a second chance at it.
>he doesn't know they were originally planned from the start
why can't the art style be more like this?
because then you would unironically have street fighter 6
>He doesn't know about the best race
Way to out yourself, gay.
>Soft Reboot of First Game
There is no evidence of this at all.
His asshole.
The only thing we know is that it is another Arisen's tale, which was obvious.
Maybe it is a reboot, maybe it isn't, but there is absolutely no evidence of it. Especially since it called Dragons Dogma TWO
I don't think it is either. Would be pretty shallow.
You are like 10 years late with the furfag hate, the in thing to hate today is "le chud"
hatred is timeless
Mystic Knight but even better please.
warrior with 6 skills instead of 3 PLEASE
i hope they redo how class leveling works, i dont wanna have to play shit like sorcerer just to do damage with mystic knight
Not bad at all. Reminds me of deep down, tbh. We'll see. I spent 400 hours in first game.
Holy fuck, that Knight is hella cool
this is him now... feel old yet?
I honestly thought this. Is it a prequel and we see the Duke lose his way, or we ARE the duke?
>or we ARE the duke?

I'm co-oping with your Pawn
I hope there will be alchemist from DDON. Best player class in the world. Cool, stylish, and combat requires you to have a sense of rhythm, so it's anti-gnomish class.
Possible twinblade weapon type.
That's 100% a staff
No, the giant statue also has a double weapon, and those are clearly blades.
Most likely but it kind of looks like a twinblade.
You sure? It looks like combination of
and
Yeah, it's pretty obvious.
That's why I linked first video. Left hand for magic, right hand for sword.
>prickly pears
I wonder if this is suggestive of visiting other lands or if there's just an american style desert near Gran Soren now.
You see it next to gran soren in tne trailer
I see it now. Looks like the canyon area on the way to blue moon tower.
>mere mummer
Clearly your character is your pawn from the first game, after it takes the Arisen's body.
I think this might be a new spell because I don't remember anything like this in the first one. Doesn't even look like elemental magic, it's blue but doesn't look like ice. Tempted to believe this might be a new vocation.
Jesus, the scepter looks amazing. Shit
>>Soft Reboot of First Game
where is this from?
I hated that, you looked like a goofy mime in cutscenes. Please don't let DD2 be like that, Capcom
>Please don't let DD2 be like that, Capcom
Please Itsuno keep the mime reactions in cutscenes.
I'm so fucking hyped.
>that high five
best part of the trailer
PREY THE LORD.
My body is ready.
How the fuck does he do it
He's Capcom's most notable, tenured and front-facing dev/director right now. He's got decades of experience and pretty much every game he's been in charge of has been a success. Plus if Reuben Langdon is to be believed, Itsuno put down an ultimatum of walking out of Capcom if DMC5 & DD2 weren't greenlit, granted Itsuno himself has said that Capcom was always open to letting him make both (probably after DmC disappointed and 4SE sold well for a re-release).
Exceed my expectations once more, you mad man

I CAN'VE BELIEVE YOU'RE SAVING VIDEOGAMES GAIN

Unironically the biggest talent in the industry
Not many people alive are on his level, and some of them are retired.
>no mask
Looks like the leak was fake or they cut it
Kinda a shame, I liked that leak
do you think they will secure the right to use into free?
what's the quote at the start?
Conviction is the human will that reaches it's greatest power
something tells me that's a bad translation.
that music at the end of the trailer made me diamons, holy FUCK
sounds kinda weird yeah
Map is tiny
Give cat wife
I'm kinda hoping it's not a complete soft reboot. I like the whole breaking the cycle/inevitability part established at the end of the first game and hope that at least plays a factor in this one's story.
You never broke the cycle in thee first, killing yourself is part of it. It's even in the intro song and Savan took the sword out of his chest.
Yeah but I hope it at least happened. That's also why I said inevitability.
I hope the attempt that your Schesnal tried and placed your pawn into the world had some form of impact.
>Soft Reboot of First Game
Makes sense, a sequel would be weird.

SF6 is still woke and the company wide policy is to be woke.
Cope.
Just because Itsuno is based and has balls and doesn't give a shit doesn't mean the rest of Capcom today doesn't suck cocks.
Now watch DD2 being advertised by literal chuds and drag queens and try to defend that you fucking retard
>SF6 is still woke
this is the only answer you deserve
Consider the infinite potential. Just as you call forth pawns, so I command all life into existance. Consider it divine creation if you must but expect none of the merecy men seek in their gods. It is but cold hard truth, the unbending reality of a world without compassion.
The world and all it's denizens are but empty vessels,in that regard no different than the pawns. Without volition there is no true life, the world falls stagnant, dead as an ocean with no current to guide it. Volition is tempered by the struggle for survival...
Just as the pawns need a master's command, so the world thirsts for the will to live
>sexy armor back
>insane pawn customization coming back
>improvements to the already great combat system
>now multiple playable races to choose from
If they just improve upon the major flaws of the first game and implement an optional multiplayer mode, then it's going to be a fucking massive success. This might very well become one of Capcom's best-selling titles if they manage to market the hell out of it to normies.
>optional multiplayer mode
Fuck you, it's single player only. Front and center. Multiplayer gays blown out of the water like a battleship at Pearl Harbor.
>implement an optional multiplayer mode
No. Stop it.
>implement an optional multiplayer mode
moron, thankfully, they've already stated on its official website the it's a single player game, maybe you'll get something multiplayer down the line... But it would be something minor.
get fucked co-op gay.
>took grigori's deal because he wanted to collect slutty pawns forever
literally me
i WILL fuck my pawn
>literally me
>Itsuno told ethics department fags to fuck off.
We only need e-boi pawns to be confirmed to have full kino saturation.
it's already confirmed by that image + the same physics returning.
>vile wakestone
This bro is Daimon isn't?
Itsuno is planning the ruse of a lifetime. DD2 happens in Daimon's original world and cycle. He confirms that BBI actually was a transdimensional incursion from Daimon's cycle.
Part of the plot will be Daimon going missing hence the true arisen shit.
Daimon will show up post BBI as a secret boss in the post-script part of the game when parts of DD1s world and cycle breaks into DD2s world line.
Looking forward to it. Them directly including Grigori and the similar world as the first game is just the prelude to them going hard on the everfall and moving between multiple worlds. We may even visit the ruined world of the first game.
>Dragons Dogma 2 will be released before we even get a single peak of Elder Scrolls 6
I HATE FALLOUT AND I HATE STARFIELD
Looks exactly the fucking same
I wish. Not digging the HD Grigori personally. For now though I will continue to trust the plan.

Thank fucking god. They're going all out
What a relief to read
Moonbros, are we finally going home?
Only time will tells

Wow, brings so many memories of a time wasted on the soulless autistic piece of dogshit unfinished game. Itsuno, this time fuck off.
Trying to hard
>All of these elements are elevated further by the latest in graphics, artificial intelligence (AI) and physics technology to create a truly immersive fantasy world in Dragon’s Dogma 2.

>ctrl f "aught"

>it looks generic
>it looks the same
You know they've done their job EXTREMELY WELL when you see these thrown around
"doesn't look like a modern game" might be the best compliment any game could get nowadays
Incredibly true. People shit on Stranger of Paradise upon reveal for feeling very 00s and it was a Top 3 game of last year.
Unfortunately, it looks like it WILL have some aspects of modern game visuals, you can tell they're using TAA, as all modern Capcom games do, so it'll look like blurry ass in motion, and when it's still too.
*yawn*
So this basic gameplay and outdated graphics is the game you've been glamoring...
>cute robes confirmed
I'm sold
Some games I worry will have small maps, or little content but I don't even consider that for a moment with this one. It'll be exactly how it needs to be.
With FF16 going full jpop with the theme I really hope Itsuno doesn't chicken out and gets some edgekino jrock shit again for the title screen. Also, did the trailer music not sound like Makino or is that just me? The jingle at the end did, but otherwise it seemed wholly unremarkable and lacked some of the punch his stuff typically does. I really hope they got him back for the sequel, DD wouldn't be the same without his riffs.
>cat woman
i will now buy your game
Do you even posses the will to fight? to live?
i dunno man, i just got here
better learn quick
It is time to decide, will you claim your right as Arisen? Or will you shrug the burden and seek peace in oblivion?
This is like a dream coming true. It's exactly what everyone wanted. Holy shit. I'm crying.
Fucking this, it looks perfect.
The wind is indeed pushing me, bros.
Same map?
All I'm saying is that at least one of the first boss fights needs to have To the End of a Life and Death Struggle rearrange 2nd Cycle play.
Hope the release isn't very far off. March 2024 at the latest please.
we're getting it this year. screencap this.
It's probably demo end of the year (PS5 only) and then release Spring 2024.
nah these reveals don't usually come even a year out from capcom.
>SF6
pushed back at least once
Unlikely as there are already 2 capcom games this year. If it was this year they would have shown it now.
RE4 technically dropped right before the end of Capcom's fiscal year, but at the same time I expect DD2 to do the same. Expect late February-mid March so Capcom can use it, SF6, and probably the console ports of MH Rise to push high revenues for that fiscal.
I'm expecting a release date soon, one year anniversary is coming up.
No way. Next year.
Showing it now likely means end of 2024 at latest. Definitely not 2025. Hopefully on the earlier side of 2024 like you said. Doubt we'll get it this year though.
>cat people
>not wolf people so i can roll with my own wolf pack
Wolf arisen hunts in packs arisen.
>ONE (1) skill/vocation showed
how is this not concerning, they were extremely fucking reserved on showing ANYTHING new in terms of movesets, skills or vocations
Cat people are fine and were in the concept art for the 1st game.
>>ONE (1) skill/vocation showed
they showed multiple vocations fag, even some new ones that weren't in the first game
go back to discord, report to your superior and never come back
It's the first trailer anon, they're not going to show absolutely everything new all at once. And if you watch closely they do show you some new things but obviously more will be shown at later dates.
>didn't tell me what anything is weak to
>didn't inform me of whether or not wolves hunt in packs
>didn't even tell me where the roads lead
>not even a single masterwork implying none of them are masterworks
Shit game will not buy
Can you still create e-boi pawns and have them wear the silk thong or has capcom pussied out on that
Slutty clothes and height variation are in. It remains to be seen just how small and childlike you can make them, though.
Looks kind of whelming, the kind of sequel that would've been exciting half a decade ago.
off to discord with you, chud
>half decade ago
if you cared about DD a half decade ago you wouldn't be saying this, zoomie.
>soft reboot
its just the cut content from dd1
Capcom has been so fucking good these last few years, I'm very excited
Loved Dragon's Dogma but that looked like shit
It has improved assets but everything else looked the same
Same locations, same enemies, same bosses, same slightly clunky combat
I don't give a shit about voice acting or story but was hoping for some big expansion of the first games gameplay in a new location and new enemies
>I don't give a shit about voice acting or story
that was like half the reason dragon's dogma was so endearing.
Everything you just listed as a con is actually a pro, a remade DD1 with all the originally cut content is the best possible outcome.
Why do you want to pay 70 dollars to play the same game retard?
This isn't the same game though.
It literally looks like an HD remake which is why there are threads about it here
Explain the new abilities, races, monsters, bosses, areas, and mechanics.
Because I love DD, getting to play it again with even more content is all I could ask for. You'd understand if you actually played and enjoyed video games.
What new content?
There's multiple new creatures and locations in the trailer.
>doesn't refute the fact he's a joyless gay who doesn't even play vidya
Yeah the same monsters like giant sphinxes and medusas and the same combat and classes and spells like the twinblade and the censer and the spell that held enemies in a big bubble yep looks like exactly the same game you fucking retard.
THANK YOU CAPGOD
As long as I get alchemist retooled for a single player game, I'll come out of this ahead.
I'd like a Brawler vocation. Let me beat the shit out of monsters with my bare hands.
I agree. Being able to go around punching things to death with bloody knuckles just made me want a proper fist oriented vocation even more.
I made a post saying the trailer looked bad and some gay had the audacity to tell me I've never played the first game. Well gay, eat shit. I know you're reading this.
Pic related was the gay in question. Thread archived before I could reply. Stupid gay suck my entire dick. You wouldn't dare telling me I never played the game irl I promise you that.
Lmao what a fucking baby. I don't care about some webm you saved, you'd know there was already a Black (non-pawn, even) in the original had you actually played it.
>some webm you saved
Stop projecting bitch. You were wrong and you made random assumptions for no reason at all. I said I wasn't impressed by the trailer and you immediately got so mad you decided to throw insults around. Bitch. Collect your L.
>You were wrong
hahahaha
moron you were wrong in your original fucking post, which is why people told you that you never played it.
I genuinely don't care if you actually played it or not, and a screenshot of some thumbnails still doesn't prove anything. The point is that you're a fucking retard.
>no argument
>only screeching
Yeah that's what I thought bitch. You were wrong, now stay mad.
>he's still trying to ignore the facts
Based retard.
You haven't stated one fact yet, gay. I'm still waiting.
You're getting more pathetic and delusional with every post, just stop.
>still nothing of value to say
L.
Says the obvious fucking twitter tourist who can't accept he was blatantly wrong. What's next, gonna claim you're not from twitter? Because I definitely won't be buying that, so don't bother. Go whence you came
>yet another ad hominem projection post with zero statements or arguments made
Stay mad wrong shitter.
You seem like a limp wristed gay. No one cares
nta but you sound like a crying fag
Say that to my face and not online see who's crying.
cry more
You never played the game.
You a bitch.
relax bro, go play some DD and take of yourself while waiting for the sequel
I've leveled every vocation and have farmed bis setups for all of the builds I like. I'm taking time off.
Not only did you never play the game, but youre also gay.
Prove it.
I'm positive they made the highest tier red and yellow armor hideous on purpose. Fashion was king and i will continue to do so unto death
be honest... with yourself, if not with me
lol, have fun dealing with sleep
>they showed multiple vocations fag,
New ones you retard
The sole new thing player-wise was an illusory bridge created by a cleric thing
Everything else we have already seen before in previous games
>Booba fully exposed
>Nips aren't textured but the shape of the model itself leaves little to the imagination
based
now add harpy party members
I don't see any elves in the trailer aside maybe from the archer who is under too much blur to see.
Am I just blind fuck, or are people assuming there will be elves based on DD1 concepts?
Beastmen was a DD1 concept, there were elf ears in character creation in DD1. Why wouldnt there be elves?
>warrior again will only have 3 skills
How mad would you be?
They already fixed warrior in DDO so there's nothing to worry about.
>RE engine
Not very because someone will mod more skill slots in like 10 minutes after release.
>needing more than 3
ngmi
unironically wouldnt cuz theyre still the most fun class in dd
All vocations need more than just 6 so I hope they expand slots even further. Real time weapon switching and item use is mandatory as well.
Unlikely.
I just hope I won't have to mod in +2 customizable pawns. I fucking love customization and don't care about pawn trading, especially if there are multiple races this time around. Let me make a comfy full party.
>3 skills
I only need one.
Animals really do be like:
>I'm about to die but I give zero fucks
Unwavering
Just like my hopes.
a better sticking point is the animation on the heart going down not!Grigori's gullet but he's a magic dragon and shit so tough luck on that front too.
The ox does not move unless you kick it.
>physics (tm)
That's not an issue with physics, they just didn't give the ox a ragdoll state or an animation for falling
many such cases
Warriorbros, report!
I will be a 2 foot tall black cat callerd morgan and I will be fucking obnoxious while my pawns have to pretend to love me

>Tower/Moon
>inifnite battle tower like SO3
Yes please
We're going to the moon.
I WANT TO BELIEVE
Man I can't wait to to on a fucking adventure.
But will it have nu-She Goat?
SOME WELCOME THE END WITH ARMS OUTSTRETCHED,
WHILE OTHERS COME TO FACE DEATH INCARNATE, ARMS IN HAND.
I ASK AGAIN. WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE HERE, ARISEN?
I'm scared this dragon won't match grigs' grandiosity. every line spoken by the dragon in DD is gold. this one looks kinda needlessly edgy. hope it's just the updated grafix.
I believe anon.
We will destroy the fucking moon.
...anon it's the same dragon design. Literally. They even brought back the same VA.
Only DDO had different dragons. Every failed seneschal is supposed to become the Red Dragon.
>They even brought back the same VA.
does it talk in the trailer?
Bro, he literally talks right at the end of the trailer right as the dragon eats the heart.
there's no way that's the same bro. I thought it was the guy on the throne saying those words. does not allay my fear.
You're deaf as fuck.
not even close. really hoping that's not the dragon.
Do you have any ringing in your ears when you're not listening to anything by chance?
ABANDON ALL DELUSIONS OF CONTROL
You would face me, then? 'Tis a fool's choice, Arisen. But better fool than craven; I knew your mind ere you came. Still I ask this final time: Arisen, will you stand and fight?
>2023 looking like a great year for gaming
about fucking time
>2023
Did they say the game is releasing this year?
This trailer had a serious lack of cool older guys
The new duke looks like a cosplayer, Duke Edmund had way more gravitas in his looks and bearing
I guess it's up to you to be the 2m tall old fart
yeah but it was an actual twist in 1 that he was a coward. this guy being a shitheel seems to be his role.
This was a pretty underwhelming gameplay reveal trailer imo, I don't really give a shit about the graphics being a bit dated or that they're reusing a lot of work from 1 and Online, but fuck, at least focus on showing new gameplay features? Show new vocations, show weird new locations, most of this just looked like DD1 but with beast races.
>first trailer
>SHOW US EVERYTHING NEW IN THE GAME
how about no, id like to discover things myself
He has a point, showing stuff you've already seen from the previous games with the exception of a single 2 second clip is not a good face for your first gameplay reveal
good thing i dont give a shit about trailers lol, im gonna play the game no matter what
In a world of sequels being consistently dogshit that fail to understand what made their originals good, yes it is.
What's there for me to get excited fucking over if I'll have to beat the same shit with the same movesets?
The trailer was fucking underwhelming for long it took them to churn shit out.
>it's a fucking discord chud
Please try harder next time
Show something new? You don't want the response to your first trailer to be people thinking it was just an remaster of the first game to current gen
there are a couple new things youre just ignoring them
but really what do you want to see? its obviously not a remake
A fucking new location?
do you remember the first DMC5 trailer?
All that showed off was the shitty robot arms.
Whole new aestheric, new nero design, nico, new enemy, new arm and ways how it affects gameplay, the impication that Vergil could be in the game, Dante at the end.
Its not uncommon to want the first trailer for a game thats been already announced to be not underwhelming.
I like that DD2 exists, i just want them to show a good justification for it to exist
obviously they won't show their entire load at a shitty sony event. they have summer game fest, their own capcom spotlight directs, tokyo game show, and more.
>or that they're reusing a lot of work from 1 and Online
I haven't seen a single Online asset bar the Spynx, what did you notice?
The sphynx design is from DDO but the model is obviously new
People are going crazy like retarded tendies and Zelda but you are right
The reality will set in soon hopefully
There aren't really
And I do love video games which is why I put in 200 hours in Dragons Dogma 1
And why I don't want to play the same game but better graphics again
I want something new
>no release date
late 2024 or 2025 at the earliest then?
Feb-March 2024 release seems 100% likely
That huge harpy woman with the massive tits
thats the visually updated sphynx from DDON, with similar colour palette
they use a gryphon skeleton with couple new attacks and spam the shit out of Sleep
that's what you can expect
sucks DDO never came overseas
if you stop responding to retards they will get bored and go away
retard
Please for the love of god I hope it's a character creator that let's you edit the face freely instead of having presets where only 2 out of 50 look good on type b
have you seen street fighter 6's character creator? its almost guaranteed to be a copy of that but more advanced since its next gen only instead of catering to ps4.
>looks the exact same as the previous two games
Reassuring
My greatest fear was that they'd try to fuck with the gameplay and make Dragon's Souls: Creed of the Wild to appeal to western audiences.
Give me more PS3 ludo. Please be good.
Itsuno knows what he wants, and thankfully what he wants isn't what everybody else is doing, but just improving on his own work.
>Savan-like pawn high-fiving the player
Of all things that's what sticks out to me huh. Also am I blind or did neither the ranger or M.Archer have daggers attached to their hips? Wonder if that means we'll be going with the 1 weapon type only thing that DDO had.
It seems they're going that way unless they're relegated to an Arisen-only class, a shame, I really liked using daggers and a hueg ass bow in DD1 and that's something I didn't like about the DDO approach on the bow classes
>RE engine
Suprised it still looks so similar. Only thing I don't like is the piss yellow filter from the ps3 era.
Engine doesn't dictate artstyle
Devs are just lazy fucks and use default UE settings
Game looks like shit. Looks like it was made in unreal engine.
It's RE engine
Then why does it look bad and the characters so ugly?
That's Dragon's Dogma.
First game looks great for a DX9 game and BBI especially looks real good. Trailer looks soulless.
DMC5 for example. Faces look good. Textures and lighting as well.
Are you retarded?
>DMC5 for example.
the game with characters that are also scanned and sculpted? or did I miss the character creator DLC?
Not all of them. Speaking of character creators, the trailer doesn't give any hope that we will be able to make good looking characters.
Nice post saying literally nothing, retard.
>any hope that we will be able to make good looking characters.
So you are retarded and never played the first game.
Prove it.
compared to what? the RE remakes? those are scanned and sculpted, these are made in their CC mostly, same as DD. you can make what you see. compared to other CC games like SF6? it's great.
Probably the fact it's an open world game while dmc and the recent resident evils are much smaller linear games.
What the fuck does this have to do with anything??? It's not about the number of polygons, it's about having a proper aesthetic approach and also not making character faces not look like my asshole.
>original Grigori english VA
That's it. That's all I wanted. That was the icing on top of the perfect cake. God bless you Nippon bastards.
its gonna be the perfect game
Didn't that VA die?
thought it was David Lodge
No, David Lodge is still alive.
He LITERALLY is in the DD2 trailer.
I'm impressed since the guy isn't exactly the most prolific VA in the world. That said he's had a few notable roles:
https://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/David-Lodge/
>Puppetmon
>Jiraiya
>Kenpachi
>The dude from Neverdead
>same game, but actually finished abd with modern graphics
Yup, I'm extremely hyped
We fucking won
why did people say parts of the trailer looked like cgi? you can tell its in-game because of re engine's TAA. it stands out on fine details that you don't find in cgi movies.
>opening shot is north of blue moon tower
>city carved into a mountain
>grigori attacking it in the very next shot
Holy shit bros this is a prequel, the evil duke we see has to be Godking Leonart
Remove the houses and you get helm's deep
>concept art cat folks
>sphinx from DDO
>the night is still pitch fucking black
>all the old monster designs
>the area from the prologue
>it's single player
I'm so fucking happy.
I'm not ready to give in to the hype yet, but I'm cautiously optimistic. It looks like more of the game I love.
Either they redesigned gran soren or there's another city in the game.
People talking about reused assets from DD1, how accurate is this? I know nothing of gamedev but can you really import 10+ year old models and just make em look "modern"? Or do they just slap on a few extra polygons and add new textures and thats it?
The Monster Hunter devs developed tools to port animations from MT Framework to RE Engine so they can probably use that (DD used a ton of MH animations already, Grigori is literally Kushala with a spellcasting animation) but models and textures and shit obviously either have to be new or lifted from old promo renders.
they don't reuse literal assets but they reuse plans and concepts. dd1 was largely unfinished so they can just port over the concepts that they didn't use.
>lvl 80
>the moon
kino but what are we doing on the moon?
Chillin'
Exactly the same thing they did with MH World. It's using the same skeleton attacks/motions etc, but they've kept true to every monster in the trailer.
>People talking about reused assets from DD1, how accurate is this? I know nothing of gamedev but can you really import 10+ year old models and just make em look "modern"? Or do they just slap on a few extra polygons and add new textures and thats it?
DMC5 is still using animations going as far back as DMC3 on PS2 if not even older, they get polished up a bit but you can still see its the same movement. Has some stuff from DD as well.
If they are extremely lazy they can do it, just like how they reused a lot of fucking assets from GTA 3 on to the Remaster and just smoothed them out with more polygons to make it look "more modern"
but it doesnt look like the case here
>lazy
Stopped reading there. You don't know shit about development.
I hope they reuse assets from Deep Down
I NEED those armors
It's not 1:1 but you can reuse parts of assets for a long, long time if you know what you're doing. Tekken has decades-old animations even in 7 & 8 because they work, and it helps keep the roster and movelists large even as they up the graphics.
>Tekken has decades-old animations even in 7 & 8 because they work
>play Nina
>half her animations look really good
>the other half are her just kinda waving her arms around with her elbows completely stiff & bent at a 90 degree angle
Tekken's ancient animations on old legacy characters are fucking hideous.
This is less about reusing shit like textures or meshes and more the fact they have to waste way less time to think, draw, fix, etc. all the concepts. Between DD1 and DDO they have most likely a wealth of content that can be easily adapted and improved instead of trying to reinvent the wheel.
Yeah, Capcom specifically spent big bucks on a new studio just so they could scan 2d and 3d assets faster. Being able to adapt existing things speeds up creation significantly. That's why I'm confident the game will be out by early next year.
I'm so fucking happy bros, the action rpg of the century is finally going to drop
honestly i think the artstyle looks great
for some reason it's realistic but also fantasy/cartoony at the same time
reminds me of older capcom games rather than modern RE garbage
Exactly and agreed. I missed this so much. I was worried they would go with bad photogrammetry character design again or destroy the colors grading like they did in SF6.
>her headfeathers are blue/yellow to suggest a pharaoh's headdress but reframing it as part of a living being's physiology
good to see they're putting their whole ass into monster design, even if that design is "let's make the realest fucking cyclops/chimera/dragon possible"
I hope there's more than two cities to visit this time
>more races yet to be revealed
Elves, dwarves, orcs and more furry races incoming.
Source ?
No source, just personal guessing based off of popular tropes.
They'd be stupid not to add in elves for coomerbait, for one thing.
elves were in the original concept and I think there's some pointy ears in the trailer. not sure about orcs or dwarves. the former is more likely methinks.
Elf ears are available in the character creator for 1 but there aren't any in-game elf NPCs or anything.
my bro
HANNAH BROS, WE'VE WON
Is that Savan?
Nah, looks like a 1-to-1 remake of the default character from the first game.
>layered armor confirmed
thank FUCK
How can i block in the original?
By using a shield?
Yeah no shit Sherlock, how can i use my shield
When someone tries to hit you, you hold it up to block them.
It's either the left bumper or trigger, I don't remember which. Just press buttons man.
By pressing the secondary skill button and just holding it, if you're playing Magic Knight you can perfect parry but holding it up right when you're about to be hit
You can perfect block with fighter too. But for both you have to have to learn the skill for it first.
Can you guys pls stop responding to shitpost
I'm so fucking happy that it looks like the same but more
Stick to your vision instead of selling out to the masses.
I don't know, with all the "dragons dogma was half the game it was meant to be" posting from the last decade or so I was kind of hoping for more than just "more of the same". If that's what it is I'll take it but I do hope for a more living world.
I expect the improvements from DDON to carry over and more on top of that. We'll see exactly how much they've added but I'm glad time's not being wasted on a new visual style and massive graphical upgrade and gameplay overhaul. What they had going was good, it just needed more time in the oven.
so how many of you will make a khajiit Arisen?
I'll have at least 1 kitty pawn for the novelty but that's it.
I'll make a furry e-boi if they let me make more than one pawn. And if they don't, I'll mod that in and still do it.
I don't think I'll make a cat arisen or pawn. They don't look like good kemoshota material. But I'll definitely hire some.
my pawn will be a pretty kitty
Waiting for other furry races to be revealed first.
The game looks fine to me.
what kind of weapon is this?
Gaia Bell
The kind that scares muslims.
Incense burner
PRIEST CLASS CONFIRMED

>Holy Flail that releases incense smoke to buff or debuff as you swing it
BATTLE PRIEST
My honest reaction to that weapon.
I'm glad they still look like elephants
Gotta mantain historical accuracy
Alchemist from DDO
DDO Alchemist was a punch explosion "mage" with a gauntlet
my god; i've had a big smile on my face ever since that trailer dropped
Glad it's coming to my system even though I haven't played the first one.
xbox one version is back compat with Series consoles, get on it
Please give me a fast paced caster weapon.
I need it.
I came everywhere bros. 10 fucking years
>another remake
>soft reboot
Fuck. I knew we could''t expect really a sequel because of the game's themes but I hoped for a prequel.
Reboots are just making the previous game non canon and also you know where tr's going before they've shown anything. Grigori was incredible and the last third is crazy, but I don't want it to be remade with prettier graphics.
I will take a bigger world nonetheless.
I mean there's clearly differences between this Gransys and the one we've known.
>but I hoped for a prequel
That might end up being the case.
HOLD on, there's one question I NEED answered
You can make a cat pawn, right? Right? Must be able to, but,
Can I make a e-boi cat pawn?
I NEED TO KNOW
You will find out on /trash/
i hope they make the warrior not shit.
I hope they change nothing to keep limp wristed fags like you away.
Warrior already isn't shit, it's just very one dimensional.
Compared to something like Mystic Knight? It's shit. Good luck doing BBI+ as a warrior.
Barring taking 10 minutes to set up a parry on cannons and a sigil for a webm, Warrior kills things faster than Mystic Knight. Stuns better too (although that admittedly becomes less relevant at higher levels on hard mode). It's just that the way it does that, spamming jump attacks, isn't especially interesting.
>male shota strider arisen
>3 thicc brown futa amazon pawns + pc mods
gaming
I can't wait to slow walk through taverns with my Pawns and listen to them as they comment about random stuff they see.
I remember some post on Ganker talked about how there would be an area like this where you can interact with your pawns and they have special cutscenes and photo modes.
No that was talking about a tower, not a tavern. probably fake anyway, the mask is missing completely and that seemed like a pretty big mechanic. They were right about it being a soft reboot, though.
It's clearly been in development for ages, given the graphics and style. It was clearly in the works after MH World.
>Itsuno's vision will finally come true
looks like a no pawns allowed establishment tbh.
We're so back.
i remember that dd1 concept art had a big buff cat guy in a lineup of pawns
what if 2 is just 1 but with all the cut content?
the moon being the same moon in all worlds, giant tower, etc all that weird shit

Zeldafags are mad again about DD2 throwing Zelda off the front page. Happens more often than you think.
I'm a zeldafag and dragon's dogma 2 is one of the only things I have left to hope for after totk turned out the way it did.
Doesn't look bad but it certainly looks dated. The RE engine is really beginning to show its age.
>looks dated
Name 2 games you think it should've looked like instead
for all we know it was footage running on ps5 since it was a sony conference. we already know from digitalfoundry that pc versions of capcom games look better than consoles. re4 on pc has better textures, better raytracing, obviously mods like better shaders and AA.
I wonder what this is for. Is an emote you can initiate at any time? An automatic thing you and your pawns just do after felling a big creature? Just some story cutscene that played out?
>slams right into ogre corpse right after
now im wondering how im gonna min-max the shit out of this game.
>ogre just minding its own business
>*jumps on your face*
>*slaps you with a big chunk of metal*
>that pawn throw
I keep wondering, I know those skills existed in DD1, but pawns couldn't use them, right? I never saw my pawns or hired pawns do that.
Pawns will use shield throw if you set their personailty to utilitarian and said pawn has experience fighting a tall enemy.
They can use them, they just rarely do. Also, in DD1 it's launching off a shield/weapon. In the trailer it looks like he just throws the dude. Makes me think it might not be a skill and is instead like holding enemies where certain vocations can just do it and don't have to use a skill slot for it. That's what I hope anyway.
Look closer that's a shield throw
They could use them, springboard it was called, it was a fighter skill, Warrior had an equivelent, but it only launched pawns upwards no matter who used it, so it was useless. This seems like they can effectively aim the pawn which makes it actually useable.
>that high five
I hope they amp up the pawn chatter and interactions
>shield jumps
kino
Races yet to be revealed
where's this said?
I bet Magick Archer will no longer be as busted as it was in DD1.
I remember playing this on PS3 and the performance was god fucking awful, so much better on PC
even on PC its still sort of jank. DX9 did not age well. you need to run the game with DXVK to get the proper experience.
There's still hope for alchemist, right? I want to blast goblins with my crystal shotgun again...
Probably yeah. That said if they aren't locking classes to 1 weapon type like in DDO it'll be interesting. High Scepter can share the swords/maces of the other red classes, Spirit Lancer could maybe piggyback off of some staves, but alchemist's gear will all have to be unique
Wait so what engine are they using? Is this the RE engine? It's looks shockingly similar to DD1
Gamebryo
RE Engine with some stuff clearly ported from DD1 while keeping the aesthetic/art design similar. This isn't the first time MT Framework assets have been transferred to RE Engine.
Capcom Press Release says RE Engine. The game has been in development since 2019.
as long as 2handers still have that sweet multi hit jumping attack, im in
RE-fucking-MINDER
?t=1262
We haven't seen the real shit yet.
I really want to know what the "everyday phenomenon" Itsuno was talking about is.
Here's to a Dragon's Dogma game without the shitty princess dress. It'll be nice being able to look through pawns without having to see that pink monstrosity everywhere.
Uh-oh, anon, you'll get your pre-order bonus dress and you will have 100 of princess pawns at the start. I guarantee you that
The brine is ever hungry, anon.
based, too true
minmaxing. you get it for free and its got great stats.
Why do they all have it? Seriously, I don't get it
Looks good on Aelinoire though
It's a noob trap because smoothbrains see that it has "good stats" but that's only because it's an entire outfit.
You get it for free at the start of the game and it has really good stats and resistances for magic classes at the start of the game
Honestly, I'm convinced they designed the trailer with the intent of making DD1 fans feel at home since showing everyone just pretty DD1 stuff wouldn't affect normalfags at all cause they never played it.
no shit
4K DD1 is the best path possible
That's not what I meant. What I meant is that a pretty DD1 would still be new and unknown to normalfags.
For the old audience, however niche it might be, they're trying to make sure to tell us they're not fucking up the vibes.
Later trailers will have the new, non-DD1 stuff now that we know the DD1 stuff is there top to bottom.
it's a tried and true approach to showing off sequel
where is he
I hope alchemist is in too
Kinda sad about probably no multiplayer, DDON was really fun with a friend
If anyone here is on PS4/5 or whatever, add Biggles and I'll use your pawn when I'm next free.
Why would they remake the first game?
There is sooo much ways to explore and expand established lore. as much as I love DD, I won't replay it for the 10th time just for the cat pawns. also, I didn't hear Grigory voice, so it's a red flag for me.
I really want to be mistaken.
But it doesn't look good so far.
bro gran soren is located on top of the everfall. of course we'd go back.
Isn't it goes through the infinite layers of infinite world's? But there is only 1 moon / seneschal for all of them?
the everfall is the through line for all realities. I guess something else could be built on top of it but did they call the city gran soren in the trailer?
No. Plus the shit they showed doesn't match the original map at all. From that angle of Gran Soren the Bluemoon Tower would be further left, in the ocean itself, and connected to the left side of the screen. Where it sits in the trailer is connected to where the starter village is and also decidedly not in the ocean itself.
The shot in the trailer is from the other side, and the city shown isn't Gran Soren. The city would be somewhere above the playable area from the first game.
>Plus the shit they showed doesn't match the original map at all.
let's not go too far. it's clearly a version of gransys, just a bit different. and that's fine. I have a few misgivings from this trailer but I still trust Itsuno.
>didnt hear Grigory voice
What? Its literally the same actor, he talks at the end of the trailer, as Grigori
To be fair, it's probably not going to be Grigori. Everyone just gets the Grigori voice when the Seneschal beats them up and sends them back as the new dragon.
He voiced the Ur Dragon as well remember?
Please tell me that my wife is in
I don't care about your wife but sure hope we'll get a sorc weapon that doesn't involve charging spells in place for a minute.
THE WIND IS PUSHING MEEE
PLEASE ADD NECROMANCY
PLEASE I WANT TO SUMMON MY OWN W A L K I N G B O N E S
What do you think V in DMC5 was for?
We Necromancer/Summoner/Beastmaster now.
Capcom is known for reusing combat related things throughout their different IP so it's definitely possible. Blitz strike or whatever it was called is basically DMCs Stinger for example. Hindsight Slash in DD became Foresight Slash in MH and I'm convinced Dire Gouge went on to form the basis of Zero Sum Discharge in MH. A summoner class would be really cool in DD so I hope it happens.
Oh no, young Elyon is hot...
>Have I ever told you about Dark Arisen?
I'd upjump that zealot if you know what I mean hehehe I'm talking about sex
>Soft Reboot of First Game
It's not, the world of DD takes place on multiple layers of worlds, like a multiverse, with the Everfall punching through them like an elevator, this game takes place on another layer, or at least starts there, we may go to the layer where DD1 takes place.
Very cool.
what exactly are pawns?
Theres really just a sub-race of humans that have no souls?
some kind of homunculi?
Pawns are like your true nature as an Arisen. There are hints that they don't just learn from you, they will physically to appear and behave similarly as you. They are more like immortal puppets that have no sense of self-image. I guess in a way they are the last shape of your former human self before you ascend into whatever path you choose.
They are empty vessels created by Arisens for the sole purpose of accompanying them on their journey, when an Arisen's journey ends the pawn is sent back to the rift in order to assist another Arisen.
Time to finish Dragon Dogma 1, then. How much time will I spend for a more or less decent playthrought?
90h maybe if you complete bitterblack twice?
If you mostly follow the main progression with a couple sidequests here and there, 30 hours give or take. But there's some side content that can bump you up another 10 or so, and then Bitterblack can add a good amount to that in the postgame.
I still had so much of bitterblack isle or whats it called left before I stopped playing.
I'm sold. Won't watch any more trailers. Jumping in as blind as possible would be best.
>Soft Reboot of First Game
I dunno, its like you don't understand the whole premise of the series to lit
THE WIND IS PUSHING ME
Give me lizard race please.
Yeah if it was a soft reboot they would just call it DD or DD: Something. Calling it 2 gives it a direct connection to the first game.
I need to know what he means. It might be Kojima inventing the strand genre all over again or it could be something legitimately new.
>Soft Reboot of First Game
isnt the story supposed to be a cyclical thing?
What interests me is that:
>gameplay looks identical
>beast races are in
>it looks like Gran Soren/Gransys
It basically is a proof that the game is just Dragon's Dogma 1: Take 2 and Itsuno wants to make it right again.
DD was a lightning in a bottle, a very interesting twist on the chosen one by god trope, a very good grigori, likeable characters.
It was a passion project, when capcom pulled the plug on it, Itsuno had to make choices, we love the first one because despite its shortcomings we can see the potential he had, the possibilities and his wish to just make a berzerk game
now? references will be gone, the game will be nothing but flashy bullshit because he will try as hard as possible to make everything bigger "better" and more grandiose.
The plot is already known, no mystery about the heart, we'll expect Grigori to be flawless and he won't be, it will ticks us off
the first game was an adventure in all the possible sense, this is why it was great, the bandit on the hill? kino, now he will just be an annoying mob.
What's the point in redoing the same game? there is no discovery, no novelty beside some pointless trinkets.
It will be a disappointment, just a regular remaster that will woo the normies who need their particle overdose rush
idk u sound gay
>game for a beloved rough gem finally gets its sequel after years
>anon finds a way to be a doomer
you cant keep going on in your life like this, its not good for you
you'll spend your entire playthrough saying "I understood that reference!"
you can't improve an adventure by doing it a second time, having your previous character be the seneschal was one of the greatest reveals on the genre, there is no way to top that
dragon's dogma was good because it was its own thing, a copy can't win over the original in this case
>copy
We haven't even heard any details and you're already doomsaying that it's a lame copy.
I'm beyond excited. GOTY for whatever year it releases is already decided.
It looked a little rushed, I wonder if they're scrambling to get it out ASAP
Anon the reveal last year was just some guys showing off some t-shirts and saying DD2 is happening. A whole year later and we get this trailer without a release date at all. The game began production at the end of 2019. This is the opposite of rushed.
They better have a portable pawn onahole slider in game
I hope I can dress my male mage pawn up in the slutty side slit dresses this time.
slutty boy mage pawns are always S tier
That's not a reverse trap right?
Please tell me this is a real manga
Manga? I only have a few pictures with the elf boy getting fucked from the artists twitter.
Please tell me that my wife is in
yeah but she's a little girl because it's a prequel.
Do we know its a prequel? People keep saying its a soft reboot too, where are they getting that?
they saw it in a dream
It's an infinite cycle so every game is a soft reboot.
I wrote it in my asshole and somehow it leaked
Doubt it, the only constant is Grigori
Syncing with your DD:DA play though to see your old arisen and pawn in the new game, yay or nay?
Honestly, I doubt they'd do it. There are too many different versions so only PC would be able to reliably import a save.
Fug, I'm an idiot and forgot about this game existing on consoles.
god i hate secondaries so much its unreal
There are PS3, 360, Switch, PS4, and Xbox One versions. So you'd have to do a PS5 and Series S/X release, on top of cross generational cloud saves for just PS and Xbox versions.
I just want it to have more big meaty dungeons like bitterblack.
wasn't there a Dogma manga?
similar to the elden ring one it's kind of a parody
where'st? i tried to find the elden ring one on tachiyomi through like mangadex but couldn't find it
elden ring one gets /a/ threads at least. no idea about the dogma one.
so
does all the stuff about the human soul and will and such from the first game go now we've got Beastmen (Beastren according to the website)? Or do they count as humans/people too? I'm assuming they do.
Can you get a Beastren seneschal? Beastren dragon? given the centred perspective on the greatsword user that appears to be a lion dude, I guess that implies a Beastren Arisen is possible.
>inb4 beastren are the reason Chimeras exist
that would be really cool!
I mean I assume they do count, I'm just wondering the point at which it stops counting. Like goblins don't count, or Saurians. I think.
Neat.
why wouldn't they? they're not animals.
Anon, the quote shown at the beginning of the trailer is about will.
>they reveal that failed beast arisen turns into a chimera like humans turn into drakes
FUCK, YOU BEAT ME TO IT
