Great

8.9/10
“Dragon's Dogma 2 is a magnificent, idiosyncratic fantasy adventure that doubles down on friction, discovery, and unscripted emergent combat thrills.”

The Good (Pros)

  • Colossal monster climbing combat makes every battle against a Gryphon or Drake feel heroic
  • Pawn companion AI develops idiosyncratic personalities and imparts secrets learned in other players' games
  • Organic cartography and absence of map clutter encourages genuine wilderness exploration
  • Spectacular high-tier spellcasting with screen-clearing tornadoes and meteor tempests

The Bad (Cons)

  • Dense capital cities like Vernworth trigger heavy CPU bottlenecking across all platforms
  • Strict fast-travel limitations can test the patience of convenience-oriented players
