I don't want to be jaded. I want to be able to look forward to new games without having to be transgender-leaning and/or brand worshipping. If the original game is anything to go by, this game looks like it's the best bet for me to actually feel like I'm having an adventure in a fantasy world without leftist boba tea breaths down my neck.
So it's just Dragon's Dogma 2 then.
There's nothing else to look forward to.
Anything that Satan gives you always comes with strings attached. I'm not religious but thats a saying and I think there is truth to it. All entertainment media is pozzed and that which is less pozzed will quickly catch up and force you to compromise your beliefs in some way.
There is not a single studio even your favourite game, IP and brand that wouldnt disavow you if they knew your beliefs or that you are against the gaying/troonying/raceswapping in games. Not a single one, not even Yoshi-P or any slightly conservative director would all condemn you for what you said in this thread and call you a monster. You can cope with that and try to make excuses for it, or accept games as just guilty pleasures you engage in while compromising your beliefs, or you stop playing them like I have and just shitpost about it
I agree with your statement, however the simple solution is to simply mod homosexualry and other abominations out, or simply not touch these games
I hate the antichrist
Youre still just trying to put a bandage on a medium that is on purpose trying to demoralize you and is controlled by your enemies. Modding it out so you dont see it makes it slightly better, but you still know that its there and that the game youre playing and dedicating time of your day to has it. Youve found a small way to cope with it but you are still buckling and being humiliated through that mere fact alone.
Piracy is not a solution either, as the elites who dictate these cultural shifts and ESG/DEI incentives do not actually care about money. They have true institutional state power, which means they dont have to obey ordinary market forces except for the most fundamental material realities like physical resources required to keep human society satiated and stable. Other than that they are more than happy to take a financial loss on something as long as their cultural poison gets more entrenched. Gilette, Marvel and all other companies doing raceswapping or anti-male ads know that people hate it and that it can only ever alienate people who would have otherwise bought their products while not drawing other people in to compensate. Theyre not stupid. They choose to take that trade anyways hence also why the premise of "go woke go broke" is a fallacy
I'm not putting you down for trying to cope btw and find ways to still enjoy pozzed games - I still sometimes watch porn even though I am well aware of a hundred different secular and moral reasons for why the proliferation and acceptance of that stuff on a societal level is a cancer to the mental health of women and men alike. I watch it very rarely compared to the past, but yeah I admit I still do it. But you have to accept and acknowledge that when one does it its endulging in hedonistic consumerism as a product of the time youre in. Never ever try to trick or convince yourself that "well X is not so bad in this case" or that "not my problem as a single individual person cuz mods"
Frick yes.
I WILL use a big robot to murder dinosaurs and please a batshit insane godlike AI.
I WILL race other players to see who can kill dinos better than the other guys.
I WILL have fun with an absurd concept.
You CAN go frick yourself for NOT joining in and making your 8 year-old self think you are "lame" for not playing.
I just wish there were Street Shark themed mechs.
I would've agreed had it been definitive but its just p3 with a singular new link thats probaboy that stupid fricking kid from 5. No answer thats revamped not to be shitty and no p3p extra content like vincent and femc.
There were a few Blacks in DD1, but I'm certain they will ruin it even more this time. Blackrock might be funding some of those jap companies behind the scenes
Every game in this picture is fricking dogshit.
I don't care if seeing one game "journalist" number 3% higher than another makes you le basedface and cream your little panties, but if you actually think any of those are "good", let alone great, you should fricking have a nice day now, shillbrain.

One of those games I bought day one on 360. I still playing today on PC romping my way through the Blowjob adventures of Baron wienerhausen. And I'll be doing the same with Starfield. Buck Brokers in the 69th Century is cumming. Yes he is. So frick you.
Pawns are actually from another dimension entirely. Characters like Mason are from other countries and have accents to show it, but the black guy in the DD2 trailer doesn't have such an accent so I hope he has a back story to justify it, and we get some African accents in the game.
NTA, but

also games that I don't actually come out this year but still excited
Star Wars: Outlaws

Jumplight Odyssey
Rogue Trader
I don't know about you lot, but things are looking great to me.
>Space Marine 2
this one too yeah
the rest of your list is kinda trash imho but I'm happy for you
It's just that I never cared of FF outside of V so I guess I don't care too much about it not being like most of the mainline games, that is, turn based and party based.
At least it went back to medieval times which is a plus for me.
FF has always been a shitshow of different styles per game. vidya BG only has one story train. where FFXVI is just another change in a line of changes BG3 is just some skinsuit shit.

Why does fighter, mystic knight, and warrior get the best looking armor?
I want to head more of the immortal set as an assassin, but I can only wear the helmet. The game has a lot of cool designs for pieces but it's hard to mix them together.
I also noticed their moves drain stamina a frick ton compared to other classes, but I leveled a lot in warrior so I don't have a ton of stamina, but I have a lot of health. I'm also climbing a lot for dire gauge, so maybe I need the strider augment to halve the stamina drain when climbing.
>get my friend to use dinput8 to set his sorceror pawn's spells back to their base version >find another pawn in the rift with a similar set up >instead of 1 or 2 actual spells being cast during the fight, now they're throwing them out constantly and they're only doing about 1/3rd less damage per spell
How did I not know about this sooner? This is amazing.
What bow skills are best for assassin btw?
At the risk of making it too casualized I do hope they take the opportunity to buff out some of the rough spots, I find DD1 to be equal parts fun and infuriating. >World is actually really small with the occasional linear canyon to connect areas >Ugly fricking lighting ranging from "holy shit bloom" to "why the frick does a partly overcast day turn the capital city into a pitch black void" >Enemy spawns are way too consistent to be fun, knowing with 100% certainty that the path leading to the female bandit camp will always spawn a chimera is kinda lame and boring, makes the world feel dead >Everything about forgeries is fricky, they range to useless wastes of money that will fail quests (golden idol) to actually being able to double-up on quest rewards (confidential letter) with no way of knowing what's what unless you troll the wiki >Weird quest pacing where quests just suddenly pop in or out of existence based on your story progress, but not in any way that makes sense (e.g. forcing you to back-track to the starter tutorial town AS SOON AS YOU LEAVE or else you'll miss quests)
Nothing game-breaking or bad enough to make me hate the game, but if the sequel has the same problems I'll be super disappointed.
Not to mention >fricked damage scaling, >lots of ugly armors that don't mix well (sequel already looks to be fixing this, hopefully they let you dye armor) >heavy attacks being mostly useless >no proper combo chains, only one alternate light attack chain >no way to mix heavy and light attacks
Too busy collecting cloudwines for my dark french waifu and preparing to slay a dragon rather than return to the same fishing hovel that I just crawled out of 15 minutes ago
P.S. forgot to mention: >Absolutely FRICKED affinity / romance system
Seriously, why do they bother to program in a literal engagement ring item but then instead tie your beloved to "whoever has the highest affinity that you talked to most recently" instead of simply making it based on who you gave the ring to? Madness.
TSMT.
Can't tell you how many times I give the ring to Quina only to end up with Mercedes or Aelenore since the game makes it the beloved the last max affinity person you talk to.
WHY DOES QUINA LEAVE MIDWAY THROUGH THE GAME
you to back-track to the starter tutorial town AS SOON AS YOU LEAVE or else you'll miss quests >Hey anon, your childhood friend went for a walk and still didn't return, could you please go look for her to make sure she is safe? >No lmao, I'm going to Gran Soren. She'll be fine getting lost in the forest for a week
>(e.g. forcing you to back-track to the starter tutorial town AS SOON AS YOU LEAVE or else you'll miss quests)
i keep hearing this complaint yet every single time i play the game i hear >back to cassardis arisen? 'tis a fair notion
and the second you step out of the encampment in that direction a guy runs up to you and tells you quina's missing, go back to talk to the elder
it's really, really not that out of the way
I still can't find a class I prefer to play over everything else. My autism wants me to have a ranged weapon, melee, and good looking armor and I can't choose.
Honestly everything except for mage/sorc is fun to play as. I'm currently playing as a hammer warrior and it's cool. Not having a ranged weapon isn't really a problem, that's what pawns are for. Plus a lot of enemies (like harpies) you don't even really need ranged for, an aerial attack will still let you reach them. For cyclopes, I just crawl up their back up to their forehead and then bash their eye until they fall over, ezpz. Ranged weapons are for jumplets and climblets.
Kill the summons, the wights will hover lower to summon more guys, that's when you can reach them with an aerial. Like all skeletons they're weak to blunt, so if you're a hammer warrior, you only need to get one or two good hits in.
>sorc
Sorcerer is an absolute blast to play. And by that I mean using your comically strong melee attacks and high mobility alongside the usual world enders. Bringing down a charging Drake with a well timed wall of ice in a final winner take all gamble is peak Dogma. With holy spam it's a 3rd person twin stick shooter. Mage meanwhile sucks. They are not the same.
Positioning and iframes from sword skills.
If you are so overly reliant on dodges and blocking, then you should maybe consider playing some more warrior.
Also >grab some random gear while switching vocations for one fight against some dragon >accidentally be Ganker as frick
>Stalker 2 >MUH KEEAYIVE KYIVIVIEV
Dead on arrival. Any game that injects politics wherever and whenever it's unnecessary, it's grounds for complete dismissal due to it tainting subjectivity in terms of gameplay design. I can already see it being filled with low IQ ukroid anti rusBlack person propaganda. They've already renamed Chernobyl, because they're fricking butthurt ol' Bladimir took a shit on their country.
For me it's Strider and Magick Archer. >Leaping Stone into Brain Splitter >Crawling over monsters like an angry flea >Quick shooting and Cloudfall Volley >Firing off massive laser barrages >Setting myself on fire >Giant tactical flare >Using e-girl pawns as ammunition
All I want are more weapon variations. Im fine with them keeping the core 9 classes but with everything fleshed out for different play styles like duel wield sword mystic knight or something. That twinblade vocation looks interesting
I thought the twinblade was mystic knight now? They seem to have taken some of the changes DDO had like Strider being just pure daggers rogue and ranger is just pure archer.
And while I don't want a one to one alchemist from Online I'd like a kind of bare fisted speedy monk type vocation.

Who is Barnaby and what the FRICK was his problem. Was he in league with Grigori? He seems to be like the liaison for the entire pawn legion or some shit so wouldn't surprise me if his motives were suspect from the start
There are a few smaller games I will surely play eventually, but I could barely name any off the top of my head, so yeah.
Shame about what happened to ACVI, I was hoping it would be good.
Got souls'd, it's just a basic b***h action game now. Kinda looks like a mix of AC and ZoE, which I probably wouldn't be opposed to if it wasn't called AC. But it is.
Right now for me it's:
Wo Long DLC
Armored Core 6
Lies of P
Elden Ring DLC
Dragons Dogma 2
The top of the list is stuff that is releasing sooner while the bottom is stuff that's further off. Also interested to hear more about Rise of the Ronin and that new Capcom samurai/oni game.
There are at least 15 games over the next year worth looking forward to if you like videogames at all. People that only like 1 very specific game every half decade shouldn't even be on this board.
AAA; this was the only game i was looking forward too, but the starfield show gave me hope. i'll play AC6 but earnestly don't think that genera's for me.
AA; remnant 2, space marine 2 hopeium
A; i dare not say lest i jinx it
I was going to say Stalker 2 but then I remembered everything about Stalker 2

Doubt, the company that handled DD1's dub shut it's doors, I think
Thankfully it seems that Capcom is keeping the sequel somewhat faithful because they're still using the old English.
That and the woman who handled the localization is now part of a union.
That's a good thing
no
Rift Stones are interdimensional portals and Gransys is in a greco-mediterranean climate, it's really not that strange.

I want to head more of the immortal set as an assassin, but I can only wear the helmet. The game has a lot of cool designs for pieces but it's hard to mix them together.
Because assassins are glass cannons and their gear reflects that
I also noticed their moves drain stamina a frick ton compared to other classes, but I leveled a lot in warrior so I don't have a ton of stamina, but I have a lot of health. I'm also climbing a lot for dire gauge, so maybe I need the strider augment to halve the stamina drain when climbing.

you can't assassinate properly in all that heavy armor

Nothing game-breaking or bad enough to make me hate the game, but if the sequel has the same problems I'll be super disappointed.
Not to mention
>fricked damage scaling,
>lots of ugly armors that don't mix well (sequel already looks to be fixing this, hopefully they let you dye armor)
>heavy attacks being mostly useless
>no proper combo chains, only one alternate light attack chain
>no way to mix heavy and light attacks
Why wouldn't you go back to your village? It's comfy as frick, it looks like you were not roleplaying.
Too busy collecting cloudwines for my dark french waifu and preparing to slay a dragon rather than return to the same fishing hovel that I just crawled out of 15 minutes ago
>didn't check on relatives and friends
>missed their quest
>complain about completionism
Seems it was your choice.
P.S. forgot to mention:
>Absolutely FRICKED affinity / romance system
Seriously, why do they bother to program in a literal engagement ring item but then instead tie your beloved to "whoever has the highest affinity that you talked to most recently" instead of simply making it based on who you gave the ring to? Madness.
TSMT.
Can't tell you how many times I give the ring to Quina only to end up with Mercedes or Aelenore since the game makes it the beloved the last max affinity person you talk to.
WHY DOES QUINA LEAVE MIDWAY THROUGH THE GAME
you to back-track to the starter tutorial town AS SOON AS YOU LEAVE or else you'll miss quests
>Hey anon, your childhood friend went for a walk and still didn't return, could you please go look for her to make sure she is safe?
>No lmao, I'm going to Gran Soren. She'll be fine getting lost in the forest for a week
>(e.g. forcing you to back-track to the starter tutorial town AS SOON AS YOU LEAVE or else you'll miss quests)
i keep hearing this complaint yet every single time i play the game i hear
>back to cassardis arisen? 'tis a fair notion
and the second you step out of the encampment in that direction a guy runs up to you and tells you quina's missing, go back to talk to the elder
it's really, really not that out of the way
I still can't find a class I prefer to play over everything else. My autism wants me to have a ranged weapon, melee, and good looking armor and I can't choose.
Mystic Knight lets you have all that
I don't really enjoy mystick knight all that much unfortunately, which is why I'm hopeful for this new class in DD2
Didn't realize until just now how many enemies are piling in there
And that spear's got a nice wide swing
Honestly everything except for mage/sorc is fun to play as. I'm currently playing as a hammer warrior and it's cool. Not having a ranged weapon isn't really a problem, that's what pawns are for. Plus a lot of enemies (like harpies) you don't even really need ranged for, an aerial attack will still let you reach them. For cyclopes, I just crawl up their back up to their forehead and then bash their eye until they fall over, ezpz. Ranged weapons are for jumplets and climblets.
How do you handle wights?
That’s Pawn work
Kill the summons, the wights will hover lower to summon more guys, that's when you can reach them with an aerial. Like all skeletons they're weak to blunt, so if you're a hammer warrior, you only need to get one or two good hits in.
>that's what pawns are for.
Non-warrior pawns I assume?
Yeah I generally don't like to run with duplicate classes so if I'm a melee class then I'm hiring mage and ranger pawns
>sorc
Sorcerer is an absolute blast to play. And by that I mean using your comically strong melee attacks and high mobility alongside the usual world enders. Bringing down a charging Drake with a well timed wall of ice in a final winner take all gamble is peak Dogma. With holy spam it's a 3rd person twin stick shooter. Mage meanwhile sucks. They are not the same.
Use dinput to equip any weapon on any class, and create your own combo.
Assassin with sword + bow. Hope you're playing body type 2 because that's where all the good looking armor is for yellow classes
Got any good examples? This is what I'm running right now as a male
Not that anon, but I love the sword + bow style.
how do I not get obliterated with bow+sword? you have no reliable defense
Positioning and iframes from sword skills.
If you are so overly reliant on dodges and blocking, then you should maybe consider playing some more warrior.

moron, he's saying "so it's just dragon's dogma 2 [to look forward to]"
There's also Stalker 2 and Starfield to look forward to.

Dead on arrival. Any game that injects politics wherever and whenever it's unnecessary, it's grounds for complete dismissal due to it tainting subjectivity in terms of gameplay design. I can already see it being filled with low IQ ukroid anti rusBlack person propaganda. They've already renamed Chernobyl, because they're fricking butthurt ol' Bladimir took a shit on their country.
For me it's DD2 and Starfield. My body is ready for adventure and jank. My GPU, not so much, but I'm working on it.
For me it's Strider and Magick Archer.

No.
All I want are more weapon variations. Im fine with them keeping the core 9 classes but with everything fleshed out for different play styles like duel wield sword mystic knight or something. That twinblade vocation looks interesting
I thought the twinblade was mystic knight now? They seem to have taken some of the changes DDO had like Strider being just pure daggers rogue and ranger is just pure archer.
And while I don't want a one to one alchemist from Online I'd like a kind of bare fisted speedy monk type vocation.
The trailer footage might not have had secondary weapons equipped, it'd be weird if shortbows were gone entirely
I'm just going by what I've heard from other anons in regards to Online, apparently Strider only had the daggers and Ranger was pure archer.
they never mentioned that the twinblade is MK afaik, just that there are new vocations and all that.
Seems all threads lead to grand butthurt
You don't play video games. You're only b***hing because DD2 is not on the SHITch.
>There's nothing else to look forward to.
Are you saying you haven't pre-ordered Starfield, anon?
The shit taste zoomer has exposed itself
Ahhh, victory.
You will cope and seethe while we enjoy Starfield, shazamtroon
>he plays bethschlop
It's not nice to laugh at morons, anon
Sucks that you can't enjoy good games like we can
>good games
Starfield is dogshit but considering you like trash like Battletech you are also a shit taste loving moron.
Battletech is amazing
Battletech video game is dogshi
Nope. Everything new is automatically shit and everything old is infected with troonyism's as time goes on. Battletech is troony shit just like 40k or any longstanding franchise.
>and everything old is infected with troonyism's as time goes on
Only if you accept it.
Endorsed by the publisher btw. Everything becomes troonyshit whether you like it or not.
>Battletech is great!
>J-Just ignore the troony part.
lol, kys. Mechgays are such morons.
Trannies aren't a part of BT no matter how hard they try to fit in.
homie you're the one mad enough about a game you're using the fricking ignore feature on steam.
Now that's some fricking seethe.
Kek it sure is
I'm gonna have to wait for the words of honest reviewers from Ganker before I purchase Toddfield.

By these standards Japan was already woke all the way back in the PS1 era. Maybe this world just isn’t for you

Who is Barnaby and what the FRICK was his problem. Was he in league with Grigori? He seems to be like the liaison for the entire pawn legion or some shit so wouldn't surprise me if his motives were suspect from the start
There are a few smaller games I will surely play eventually, but I could barely name any off the top of my head, so yeah.
Shame about what happened to ACVI, I was hoping it would be good.
>Shame about what happened to ACVI, I was hoping it would be good.
QRD?
It's soulslop now
Got souls'd, it's just a basic b***h action game now. Kinda looks like a mix of AC and ZoE, which I probably wouldn't be opposed to if it wasn't called AC. But it is.
>QRD?
He's a moron
This is all you need to know
This looks so dumb it keeps reminding me of this.
Shazamtroons are afraid. Rightfully so.
Right now for me it's:
Wo Long DLC
Armored Core 6
Lies of P
Elden Ring DLC
Dragons Dogma 2
The top of the list is stuff that is releasing sooner while the bottom is stuff that's further off. Also interested to hear more about Rise of the Ronin and that new Capcom samurai/oni game.
Not even worth a (You)
Battletech is trash and trooned out before even Todd, sorry to burst your bubble homosexual.
There are at least 15 games over the next year worth looking forward to if you like videogames at all. People that only like 1 very specific game every half decade shouldn't even be on this board.
I just started the first game and did the snake head escort mission.
…I don’t really get it. I also don’t get why they don’t give you optional co op.
AAA; this was the only game i was looking forward too, but the starfield show gave me hope. i'll play AC6 but earnestly don't think that genera's for me.
AA; remnant 2, space marine 2 hopeium
A; i dare not say lest i jinx it
