Dragon's Dogma Review | Otaku Gaming

Otaku Gaming writes: "Stepping back and looking at Dragon’s Dogma from a meta-perspective makes you realise it represents everything that is wrong with the games industry. It is an offensively derivative game that makes Gameloft’s knock-offs look creative. Despite the utter cynicism it displays towards consumer buying behaviours, it’s still a moderately entertaining game, but it sits very firmly within the second tier of JRPGs."

Having played the demo this is a really bad game >.<

The Witcher 2 pulls off a lot of things very well on the Xbox 360.

WOW, This reviewer is so far off the mark in every aspect of his review I found myself both laughing at his statements and gritting my teeth in anger and frustration at the same time. incredible. Did this person even play Dragon's Dogma!!!

Cueil4348d ago

I know... most of these reviewers haven't played the game it seems

shotgunshine4348d ago

I didn't read the review, just saw the score. Despite its flaws, I personally love the game. I can see not everyone liking it and it may not be your cup of tea, but a 40...really? Its all opinions but a 40 pretty much means bottom of the barrel bad...lets reserve that score for games that truly deserve it.

TENTONGUN4348d ago

im buying the game friday so im reading the good and the bad reviews. should i wait for a price drop or is it worth the full price? so many mixed opinions, people love it or hate it. can someone just answer this for me? is it a solid game worth admission?

shammgod4348d ago

This is a great game. Don't let reviews sway your decision especially this horrible review. This reviewer really is a clown

JAMurida4347d ago (Edited 4347d ago )

I'm 80 hours in the game and I love every second of it. All I'll say to sum it up is that I really hope they make a sequel to the game.

In all honesty though, why don't you just download the demo and try it for yourself? I don't understand why you would need someone else's say/opinion to know if *****you***** would want to play the game. For example, White Knight Chronicles II got bad reviews, but IMO, it's one of the very few games this past year I felt was worth the $60 tag. Reviews are too random to really judge or go off of.

Not trying to sound like an A-hole but just saying...

*Edit for possible spoiler.

i went ahead and bought it, i like it so far. i did play the demo but the world wasnt open. people said the world felt incomplete so i was hesitant on paying $65 for it when i usually budget games like this. as far as sounding like an asshole, you kinda did. im just absolutly sick of reviewers this gen and would rather take the word of gamers on n4g. last gen reviewers were good,, but i bet they will be fkn plenty and worthless next gen. so far this gen i mostly agree with gameinformer and gamespot.

xAlmostPro4348d ago

Looking at the site etc. It's run by Nintendo fanboys.

Don't get me wrong there's nothing wrong with being a Nintendo fan however, the sites clearly biased, this game + a review that suggests only the demo has been played or possibly a quick go at a friends of Dragons Dogma receives 2/5 yet 'farm simulator' for the 3ds receives 4?.. along with other ninty games(that aren't any better than this game) receiving good scores.

First rule of good journalism, don't be biased.

Dragon's Dogma Is Still Amazing

Although the sequel is on the near horizon, the original Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen remains a fantastic action RPG, still worth playing.

A lot of the quest lines in Skyrim are good(not all and they don’t add up as a whole if you do thieves guild mage fighters guild etc) The dragons are very lame after the first few times and the combat is clunky as it always has been. The stupid sprint button is ridiculous.

Overall I agree DD is the better rpg game.

Both have theirs strengths and weaknesses but Skyrim should be so much more being the 5th game in Elder Scrolls series.

Excited to see what they add on to DD 2.

Unfortunately all they have done to Elder Scrolls since Morrowind is take things out (minus the sprint button which is so lame because you can kill dragon god like creatures but can’t run for more than ten seconds without getting tired)

anast49d ago (Edited 49d ago )

I liked the vampire questline and the return to Morrowind was okay, but the problem with Skyrim was the lack of consequence. There is almost no point in the quests. After I realized this, I started messing around with the mods and then quit playing. Though, I did spend 300 hrs. on modded content, but this is telling of how bad the game kind of is.

If DD was the size or close to the size of Skyrim, It would have been the primer fantasy game back then. I hope they up the size with DD2.

5 Games To Play While Waiting For Dragon's Dogma II

Daman Shelley from NoobFeed writes - Dragon's Dogma is truly a one-of-a-kind game, and there really is no other game like it, but there are a few that come close. Whether with their fantasy settings, the ability to climb mountains, or just with the overall same charm as Capcom’s iconic RPG. Here's a list of games that will hopefully scratch that Dragon's Dogma itch.

every gamer should play this game

gold_drake99d ago

cant wait for it, feb and march are busy busy months ha.

SovereignSnaKe98d ago

I can still hear the title screen music in my head after nearly 12 years. Loved every minute of it.

MrNinosan98d ago

I have no issues filling my time til DD2.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink, Infinite Wealth and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will probably me more than enough.
More terrified I won't be done in time.

DivineHand12598d ago

Try not to burn yourself out before the game releases. This is going to be a long and immersive RPG like the first one.

The games in this article are all great and I believe the people who are excited for Dragons Dogma 2 probably already played most of those games.

For now, I recommend you prepare yourself for long play sessions if you will be picking up Dragons Dogma at launch.
