Dragon’s Dogma: hands-on (darkzero)

"Oh, how tired I am of cookie-cutter RPGs. Mundane tasks and lackluster graphics litter what could be a fresh, unique genre. ‘Collect this, fetch an NPC that, cast a spell here, slash your sword there’ is usually the rinse-and-repeat formula found in any modern roleplaying game . After having a chance to experience the title extensively, I can honestly say that Dragon’s Dogma is setting the bar higher than any RPG of our time and amazingly avoids the pitfalls that disappoint in many a roleplaying game time and time again." -Caleb Thompson
