Dragon's Dogma 2 Reviews
Dragon's Dogma 2 is another game in which Capcom confirms its ability to provide wonderful games with a very distinctive playing style by presenting this time an unparalleled pawn system, and rich and wonderful exploration, but it failed to prove itself in the technical aspect, as this aspect greatly affected the level of the game. Also the in-game purchases are very harmful to the game's rating.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is as much of an odd RPG as its predecessor and makes little to no concessions, leveraging its many strengths and unique traits to make up for the half-baked bits.
Dragon’s Dogma 2 is a game that will mostly appeal to those who got a kick out of the first one and wanted more, firstly, but also players who are keen on having an ‘out there’ taste of RPG and don’t mind the quirks that make it what it is.
Dragon's Dogma 2 excels in every aspect: from its superb gameplay and engaging combat to the captivating exploration of a meticulously crafted world. The storyline is compelling, and the overall atmosphere is simply fantastic, ensuring that you'll spend countless hours immersed in its world.
Dragon’s Dogma 2 is a funny valentine. The graphics aren’t particularly stunning, quest progression can be vague, and it has some deliberately old-school ideas that are frustrating to deal with. Still, the game is able to capture a sense of freedom and wonder while delivering on challenging boss fights throughout exploration. It’s one of the few games that has made me want to investigate every inch of the world map without any prompting by the game through a notification or a quest. And I haven’t had that sensation in an astonishingly long time.
Dragon's Dogma 2 may not be for everyone, but if you want a fantasy role-playing game with all the thrills and excitement (and caveats) that make you want to better yourself and get immersed in, sink your teeth into this monster mash. Though if you just got off the first game and the Dark Arisen expansion pretty recently, you may want to wait until the game gets a discount. If you're fresh in, go for it with dragonfire-tempered expectations.
Dragon’s Dogma 2 is outwardly hostile to its audience, embracing everything that made the original such a hassle to enjoy. A game designed with the purpose of wasting a player’s time, which makes Capcom’s “time saver” microtransactions all the more sickening. It’s a glorified xerox that you will adore if you believe Dragon’s Dogma was literally perfect when it released in 2012 and absolutely none of the progress within games development in the past twelve years meant one fucking thing. Indeed, if your idea of a good time is having a terrible time, you’ll love this malignant resurrection of ideas and implementations that should have stayed long dead.
Splendidly designed and utterly unique, Dragon's Dogma 2 is a must play for action RPG fans looking for something special.
This unexpected sequel consistently delivers the most thrilling and hilarious player-driven adventuring anecdotes in what may be Capcom's greatest-ever roleplaying game.
With an innovative Pawn system by your side, delve into a so-so story in a deep world teeming with intrigue and mythical beasts. Challenge awaits at every turn, from the treacherous landscapes to the heart-pounding battles, where mastery of diverse vocations is key to victory. Though stained by visual monotony and performance woes, Dragon's Dogma 2 with its thrilling emergent gameplay and superb combat stands as a solid return to the series.
The sequel to the iconic Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen from 2012. doesn’t radically depart from its predecessor. Instead of revolutionary changes, it brings refinement across the board. It’s big, content-rich, and complex but very easy to jump into.
The impression left by Dragon's Dogma 2 is positive. It's one of the most creative and well-made action RPGs of the last decade, offering something that just doesn't exist in the market

Dragon’s Dogma 2 feels more like a remake or reimagining that improves on the original ideas than an actual sequel. Its plot does not continue the original plot, it makes the same narrative errors and its design bears little resemblance to something actually conceived in 2024. However, the experience remains interesting and fun at all times. The epic combat, exquisite art direction that delivers a true fantasy world, improved vocation and pawn system and the feeling of freedom and exploration, with dangers lurking around every corner, make this RPG a delight for fans of the genre.

Dragon's Dogma 2 essentially reprises and enhances the concepts from its predecessor, focusing on exploration and engaging combat. While it generally succeeds, the game suffers from repetitiveness in enemies and combat, and has notable optimization issues. Despite these flaws, it remains a must-play for action RPG enthusiasts and fans of immersive worlds.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is an unparalleled adventure that emphasizes exploration and immersive combat. The many classes keep the battles fresh and the world always offers something new to discover without becoming boring. Nevertheless, the game is very peculiar, has strange design decisions, performance problems and can be very frustrating at times. But if you can cope with this or are a fan of the first part, you will get one of the best open-world experiences in a long time.

If you are a fan of the first video game, you definitely have to try it, because as I already said, it expands the experience in terms of mechanics and also with a much larger map. On the other hand, if you are new here, you better tread with caution, unless you are already used to similar games that are placed in the RPG genre.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is an outstanding action RPG that has been plunged by the incompetence of the developers and the greed of those in charge of publishing at Capcom. At this point, I can in no way recommend the game unless you have top-of-the-line hardware, and even then you won't have a perfect experience. The presence of microtransactions is also a harmful decision and does not make me optimistic about the future of Capcom's games. Wait a minimum of six months for possible performance patches, which unfortunately at this point are not expected to appear anytime soon. If it weren't for the above problems, I would have my game of the year candidate here.

It is true that an immersive world and unique game mechanics create distinct enjoyment. However, these same aspects also bring several issues. While the game is excellent, certain external factors need to be addressed for improvement.
