everything does, game is too ez. meteoron drops drakes in a single cast, but at least it looks cool. i wish i could stop levelling, it feels like im being punished for playing bc the game keeps getting easier than it already was and you get hired less (and pawns in the rift dry up too). apparently lvls go to 999 lmao, so eventually you have to start a new game, which means kissing your pawn goodbye. we need a GOOD hard mode, NG+ scaling, some kind of level scaling, prestige system. those can all be done in free updates. then with the DLC give us a better repeatable endgame, on top of BBI 2.0, a new snow region, and update the existent map with new enemies, dungeons etc. im holding this multitrillion yen studio to a standard idc.

@@billjones642in the original DD ppl would do main pawn only / solo playthroughs, I'd recommend trying that for a while if you want increased difficulty.

@@billjones642The first Dragon's Dogma is the same. Once you grasp the mechanics of the game, knowing enemy weaknesses, elemental advantage and tricks like applying debuffs, the game is too easy.

@billjones6426 ай бұрын
@@ZedRotti for me, the whole draw of the game is playing with a party of pawns, and the social aspect of sharing pawns. going solo just doesn't feel right. it's unbelievable that they had 12 years to reflect, 5 years of development, and it came out missing basic QOL features from DA but retaining all of the flaws. from what i've read, DD2 had a fraction of the developers as capcom's other titles despite being bigger in scope. it's just... why? it could've built off of DA and then got a DLC that made it even better. instead we're waiting on a DLC to make it on-par.
@ZedRotti6 ай бұрын
@@billjones642 That's because this game is incomplete. Even the first installment of the game has a lot of unused assets and maps of what could've been. Capcom underestimated this project even from the start. So they just built upon patches and patches until they cannot change the mechanics of the game. Making this game is like fanservice to us consumers but they don't really like it themselves. Now to your point, yes, this game is boring and even feel lonely without pawns while you play. Specially more so on the first game, the world is large to traverse and it also radiates bleakness in some way. But if it's just difficulty bump you seek then there's no more solution to that as to nerf your characters even more. If you're really bored then do a fist only run, no joke, Nihil did this on the first game. You can search it on youtube.

For real. I legit get messages saying how useful my fighter pawn is sometimes from people who've hired her. And she really is. 150 Seeker token bikini armor is also totally OP. It's only 50 less total defense than the Dwarven Enhanced/Wyrmfire maxed out post-game fighter torso/leggings together, and it weighs a third so it's arguably more practical. Based Capcom. Bikini armor truly is the best. It's also nice that your pawn will sometimes say stuff like ''I made myself indispensable to the Arisen'' when she comes back. So proud of them when they do that, LOL! Capcom did a great job at overhauling and improving the pawn system.

Take this with some salt but someone did some testing and found that archer pawns with only Manifold Shot and w/e the exploding shot is called do the most damage since they aren't running around and trying to sus out the best spot to poorly use Deadly Shot or Heavenly Shot. Also, exploding shot does loads of damage and knockdown anyway. Only drawback is you need to supply them arrows which is easy enough since they're easy to craft.
