More like the Arizzen with all the ladies he's rescuing. I love how even into the end the Arisen is shocked and surprised by the more and more incredulous things they do and see. Also, I really like how this story starts as a typical 'chosen one'/'hero's journey' but soon subverts that it becomes an exploration on the horrible fates of other 'chosen ones' as they all end up dead, insane, corrupted or miserable, and no Arisen really gets a happy ending or gets out of the cycle.
Pog, right in time for dragon's dogma 2
Thanks for the great recapitation, i never understood that the arisen is basically the battery of the world. They go through so much hardship as a test of how much WILL they can generate for everyone in their world. It really is an essential function. It's a real "End's justify the means" type situation. If there was ever a person with limitless willpower, there might be no need for the cycle
The mmo had nothing to do with the world of dragons dogma.. and dragons dogma 2 also seems to be its own setting. The netflix adaptation had barely anything to do with the game either. At this point i would say that dragons dogma is more akin to final fantasy… the series shares some elements like creaturs and concepts.. but otherwise are completly seperate entities
Your incorporation of pawn quotes is fantastic. Awesome job man.
I played the first Dragon’s Dogma game 2. My first walkthrough was a female Elven Arisen Magic Archer and a Female Elven Pawn Fighter. She romanced Fournival mainly because I completed all of his side quests just so I can get the teleport stones because backtracking is a pain in the ass. My second walkthrough was a male Human Arisen Warrior and male Human Pawn Sorcerer. He romanced Madeleine mainly because she was kinda hot and has an interesting side quest.
I can’t wait to play the sequel. I don’t know if I should start as an Elven Arisen and Pawn, a Human Arisen and Pawn or a Beastren Arisen and Pawn, either both males, both female or male and female. And the classes, should I be a thief, an archer, a mage or a fighter?
Just started a fresh playthrough yesterday : )
Going to binge it and try to beat the DLC which I've never actually played through!
Thanks so much for doing this games story justice. I always hear people bash this games story and say it’s only worth playing for the gameplay and I always have to argue against that mentality.
While the presentation of the games story wasn’t always done in the best ways, if you take the time to experience it (specifically, making it to the very end of the game with the everfall and all that) it’s an absolutely phenomenal story and one of my personal favorites of all time.
Yessss let's go
TOPICAL!!
Live for these vids
🫡🫡🫡 just in time for dragons dogma 2
my fav RPG of all time lol i bought it on all systems
"Stunlocked by blast arrows" got me hard. most pure lore. Ready for Dragon`s Dogma 2 are we?!
RECAPitation of Grim Dawn? I have not seen the lore anywhere
I needed this just in time for the sequel
All of the quotes was an insanely nice touch. I couldn’t stop giggling. They truly were masterworks all!
Please do a recap for Blue Stinger, Illbleed and Yu-No.
Damn i love all the inside jokes 😂
I would love to see a recap for Dragon Quest 11 in honor of Akira Toriyama.
Hope we get a banger title theme like flying into free
I internally hear a vine boom every time you quote a pawn or npc. You did a good job keeping me on my toes. I never knew when the next quote would pop up lol
He even quoted Into Free! He can't keep getting away with this!
Who was the duke's pawn?
Lmao the pawn quotes made me love this video
@19:30 OG game intro song reference?
Congrats on 100k, enjoy that play button!
5:26 oh it’s Palpatine !
When you’re just trying to clap your main pawn’s cheeks but they end up becoming you ☹️
Good to have you back, friend.
Dragon's Dogma is an absolute tragedy. It's the definition of something "ahead of its time" much like the PSVita. This essentially being a hardcore rpg adventure like Skyrim with good combat, interesting character progression, cool mechanics and interactions that ground the game in reality. It's as if the creators looked at Dungeons and Dragons and said "let's turn that into action game", then took all the material, condensed what is relevant and delivered an incredibly respectful adaptation.
When I see games like Baldur's Gate 3 get this much praise, I can only hope people give the same love to DD2. I'd kill for Capcom to notice the potential it has with its RPG franchises and would absolutely love to see a continuation or even a FF7Re treatment to the Breath of Fire series.
I hate the Dragons Dogma opening theme music. I miss the random JRock out of place theme music. It made the game stand out in an odd way.
It would be so awesome if Dragon’s Dogma 2 have a multiplayer mode. And when you enter the rift and to your friend’s game, you play as your Pawn in their game. While in their game, your Pawn gain experience but cannot level up or change their skills just like an AI controlled Pawn.
Good
Great summary , especialy since you've included the 2 optionnal story quests that can lead toward a mistaken interpretation of the ending if you miss them.
This is a job well done.
