Fricking grim. It's fricking embarassing how much CRAPCOM butchered and rushed that game.
I'm just assuming now the people deepthroating Capcom and defending DD2 are just trolling, it was a completely middle of the road game it wasn't bad but it wasn't good either.
Set aside the performance issues there's not that many enemy types and not that many vocations to play around with also seeing random ethnic minorities littered randomly throughout the world makes it a bit stupid, I don't mind if there were tribes or kingdoms with different ethnicities but having a "medieval" period be heccin diverse is moronic
It was the breaking point where everyone collectively decided they were sick of microtransations and took it out on DD2 even though they don't actually effect gameplay leading too extremely negative perception.
well, this is partially true, but also dd2 is just not very good and a step back from the previous game in a lot of ways. it really needed to stick the landing and instead it's mediocre at best in most respects
>but also dd2 is just not very good and a step back from the previous game in a lot of ways.
I don't think this matters much since the first one was a niche game and the hype around this brought in lots of people who never even played it.
it absolutely matters, the long-term sales of dd2 have cratered as a result. it's not going to be something that continually sells over time because of its mixed reception and especially the technical issues
the fundations are good but they screwed on stupid little things
for exemple, the map and the world is very good, something very hard to make, but the 4 skills instead of 6 and the button layout is fricking stupid and could be fixed easily, it's just a stupid decision
Also it just doesn't feel good to play compared to DD1, i'm talking as a fighter main
And the voice acting and bgm is subpar, inconsistent and lacks passion, it really sounds like trailer commercial placeholder shit
I don't want to believe it but it feels like DD2 served as a technology beta test for MHWilds
Black person they limited the save slots and chara creation to 1 and saved em on their server, so you have to pay them 1.99 to change your character. Microtransactions always affect the game by making things either impossible to get or an insane grind.
>Why did it flop so badly?
It didn't, it sold 3.5 million copies.
You're just brown and can't run it, nor pirate it, thus it makes you mad.
It shipped and sold 2.5 mil digitally til now you tard and tanked their rep badly. Steam,Snoy and shitbox accepted refunds way past the time limit for the game, because it is an unplayable on consoles and crashes a lot with a horrible framerate that makes it near unplayable. Thats grim to be honest.
No you homosexual, because the 1st numbers are always shipments to stores+digital sales. Thats why you never hear an update for months and when you do its usually just 1 mil more in half a year if not longer. If they sit in stores unsold companys will have to pay a fine.
>Black person they limited the save slots and chara creation to 1 and saved em on their server, so you have to pay them 1.99 to change your character. Microtransactions always affect the game by making things either impossible to get or an insane grind.
This isn't even true.
1 month on and we're still getting people like yourself repeating fake news.
We’re living in the timeline when shiftup can’t even confirm they’ve sold a million stellar blade or not when the tortanic of the month can proudly come out and say they sold 3.5
>this new fantasy rpg looks good >you have to pay to fast travel? that's gay dropped.
I know you don't need to pay to fast travel but once normalgays hear that they're not going to look any further into it.
They hyped up the 2nd game in the series as though it was some lauded franchise and not literally a single jank game and it turned out to be the exact same game but released in 2024.
Bro, how could it not flop? They've learned nothing.
game is great
four of my colleagues bought it and enjoyed it but we all agree that the game runs like absolute garbage
if the japs fix it we get back to the game
I keep forgetting DD2 exists until someone makes a post. Played it, beat it, moved on and it left no impression on me. Truly a shining example of pure mediocrity.
The low player count is because it only allows a single save file and lacks a proper ng+. Losing your original save feels like shit, so people quit playing after beating it instead of starting new saves.
1. No replayability because all you'll get are the same goblins, bandit, and wolves. sprinkled with an ai-generated story.
2. Exploration is not rewarding and doesn't really matter.
3. No branching quests that unlock new quests and maybe even areas.
4. Dumbed down in all regards in comparison to DDDA.
As of now, it's the biggest disappointment of the decade.
Manufactured social media hype, nobody ever gave a frick about dragon's dogma then all of a sudden everyone was posting about how excited they were for the sequel? People act like there's no way anyone would fake comments/likes to make something appear more successful than it really is
You called me an indian. If I post my specs you'll frick off never to be seen again. You post yours first then I'll humiliate you.

>Capcum slurping shills so desperate they use the awful optimization as a form of elitism that they can run a CPU choked game
For me it's the fact that you could only ever have one save slot and one character, even if you formatted your PC you could never make a second character. Like who the frick thought that was a good idea, that's 100% insane that they did that.
The game had much potential but I think I just witnessed one of the worst main quests ever. The characters might as well be cardboard cutouts. It would be an understatement to say the whole thing feels rushed.
Once you reach Battahl and it starts getting interesting, you think "oh I might be halfway into the game, I did a lot of secondary stuff. Let's make some progress on the main quest too". But then the game just fricking abruptly ends, feeling like there was some sort of huge time skip in the story. And worst of all, if you had some pending secondaries / exploration, you cannot catch up because it's a point of no return.
>Capcom's best selling single player game to date
Well that's obviously not true. You probably mean fastest selling single player game in its first 10 days or so. Because obviously DD1 has sold much more as well as a bunch of RE games
>shills actually pretending that 2.5 million is a good number
ER did 12 million in 2 weeks LMAO. DD2 was objectively a flop compared to the genre leaders, in both sales & critical response. It's not a surprise that the player base is already dead this quickly.
Elden Ring is better but it also had a 200 million dollar budget and was an installment of an already massively popular franchise. DD2 is much more niche and probably had a 1/4 of that budget. 2.5 million in 2 weeks is probably making decent profit
Where the frick are you making up that 200 mil ER budget? That random website thats making up budget numbers for fun? Holy frick you shills are embarassing. ER still probably costs around the same as DD2 to make because they reused assets and didn't waste budget on moronic physics or dumb systems like dragonsplague or trickster.
Crapcom>Fromsoft in terms of budgets and companys size easily. Also devs keep barely 20-30% of the profits, so 2.5 mil sales would be 35 mil. On top of it, thats shipment numbers and not actual sales.
I love when Capcum slurping shills use the Pajeet meme. As if we can't just look at the credits and see all the Pajeet outsourcing Capcom does to its game making and marketing.
As someone who just finished it, it feels like a step forward and several step back.

at least maybe made some profit for daddy capcom, so its all ok, is funny to me. Literal brainwashed cultists at that point.
>DD2 >can’t run for shit on the Steam Deck >sells only 2.5 mil (half of these are sitting in a warehouse btw)
Meanwhile… >Palworld >runs on Steam Deck >sells 10x DD2
Meanwhile… >Elden Ring >runs on Steam Deck >sells 10x more than DD2
What did Capcom mean by this?
I liked the game even when it was clearly rushed and unfinished
But after 150h and finishing it two times there is little sense in keep playing it. I would love a Dark Arisen dlc with harder enemies and a couple new vocations
dead on announcement. the first game was a flop, too. Ganker has been lying about the popularity of DDDA for over 10 years, but you can at least grab that for $5 and it's a DIRECT SIDEGRADE to DD2 because capcom refuses to iterate on their game design.
>Most quests are hidden through triggers, so most people don't realise they exist >The main quest is short and poorly told >Valuable hand crafted content is sparse at best >Poor large monster variety >Poor loot >ZERO dungeons >MTX fake controversy >Performance real controversy
The cost is that the game didn't sell anywhere near as well as it could have had the game truly maximised it's potential.
The good thing is that it still stays niche, preventing the series from becoming lowest common denominator slop like the other three in that image you posted.
Can't even save images on Ganker anymore and repost them. What a fricking travesty of a site
SIRS why is there BLACK bar at the bottom hiding player counts???
Because Ganker sucks these days and you can't even download an image without it getting cropped and saved in the weirdest format. Hiro take a bullet.
>indian pcs cant even run Ganker

Your shitskin is showing

god damn
kinda surprised it still has that many players though

Fricking grim. It's fricking embarassing how much CRAPCOM butchered and rushed that game.
>skyrim still there
home
what even is there to do in the witcher 3? i understand skyrim still having players cuz of mods but witcher 3??
Facto: The game is boring as frick and the combat is janky and shallow
Frick Capcom releasing unfinished games with DLC planned out.

dd1ran like shit on its original release look how that went
DD1 ran great on PC day 1

it ran like shit on xbox.
All games did by 2011.

RE Engine in general is awful and it will doom Wilds aswell. Just soulless to the core.
Here's your $70 sequel you waited 10 years for bro.
That will be extra tip and a 4090.
did you use a super low graphics mod to take those captures?
Don't you dare
Don't you fricking dare you miserable fricking donkey.
doing the needful sirs
I hate this tard engine so much.
What in that image do you think is a result of engine limitations?
that's just PS5 footage

It sold 2.5mil in the first week.
When you have to lie to try to make a point you've already lost
No you homosexual, because the 1st numbers are always shipments to stores+digital sales. Thats why you never hear an update for months and when you do its usually just 1 mil more in half a year if not longer. If they sit in stores unsold companys will have to pay a fine.

No matter how much you want it to be true, it isn't.
Watch him making another completely deranged post to defend daddy capcom again

ehehehehehehehehehehehehehhe
normies hearing about portcrystal mtx kneecapped this game, besides it also being peak mid
It literally didn't I don't know why you're so obsessed with the idea when capcom pretty much confirmed that it sold well.
We’re living in the timeline when shiftup can’t even confirm they’ve sold a million stellar blade or not when the tortanic of the month can proudly come out and say they sold 3.5
One has ten times the budget of the other. Bet you also consider Starfield a smash hit.
What is dd2 ‘s budget that didn’t come out of your ass
at least $300 million spent on marketing
the "no e-girl pawns no buy" crowd went full scorched earth with their campaign

Jesus, dogmapedos still can't let go of that copium
MTX, incredibly shit optimization, shit story, lack of enemy variety, massively overpriced

>here's the game that the fans of DD1 asked for.
Yes. it's great.
I don't recall asking for this low effort RE Engine'd soulless slop. Did you?
Yes. I wanted DD2 to be DD1 with a bigger map. That's what DD2 is.
>I wanted DD2 to be DD1 with a bigger map
But it isn't this. It's just a downgraded DD1 in every way. And the map is fricking shit.
>stop liking stuff
You're here crying because you can't run the game.
Nothing wrong with RE Engine. DD2 is just a poorly thought out game lacking in meaningful content
1. No replayability because all you'll get are the same goblins, bandit, and wolves. sprinkled with an ai-generated story.
2. Exploration is not rewarding and doesn't really matter.
3. No branching quests that unlock new quests and maybe even areas.

it's the fact that people expected more of it but it was a bigger let down than vanilla DD1
I'm just disappointed in the lack of content. The combat is fun, but its sorely lacking in basically every other department.

I'm still waiting for them to fix the performance.

WHO COULD HAVE FRICKING PREDICTED THIS GUYS?
Denuvo - Terrible performance.
No piracy = no free advertising.
Day 1 DLC (because of Denuvo)
Day 1 'pay2win' dlc.
ANY game sequel that uses Denuvo is just a money grab. NONE of the original Dragons Dogma development team were involved with this game.
I hate indians but dragons dogma was kind of a letdown. Lots of grind, didn't feel like I was questing just wading through thousands of dead goblins
As someone who just finished it, it feels like a step forward and several step back.
