How about you not selling this type of DLC for single player games?
My only concern yesterday was performance & after launch they shadow drop this o_O lol

"You can earn this in-game" slippery slope arguments piss me off ^.^ we're past this convo, this "DLC" should NOT exist because who's to say they don't alter gameplay elements In the future so it'd be preferable for you to purchase said DLC items.

Yeah I get what you mean

The RE4 Remake MTs with the weapon upgrade tokens you can purchase tried to lure you in by making it easier to complete the game with an S+ rank under 4 hours or whatever because you could purchase the Infinite Ammo for the Chicago Typewriter which makes it way easier as it gives you the edge earlier on while you slowly focus on upgrading your Magnum.

Luckily because I got the CE (or maybe I preordered) I got a free ticket to use. If I didn’t have it I felt I’d have struggled, not impossible but I’d be more frustrated with it.

Absolutely! Whoever is responsible for the MT's is damaging their reputation.
I don't want to feel like I have been deceived when I buy a new game.
I certainly don't want to feel like they have crafted a number of the games mechanics around MT's which is how it feels when you see these.

Capcom told the truth, the reviewers conveniently left this out so they can get free games and have a job in video game marketing.

I never played this series but I only heard good things about it..
as a gamer who follows gaming news, I do not think capcom gave this the marketing it deserves. Still on my radar..

TheEroica88d ago

Didn't DD2 come out a year ago?

DivineHand12589d ago (Edited 89d ago )

Dragons dogma 2 is a good game. The biggest mistake Capcom made was allowing it to launch at 30 fps. When the game came out, all anyone was talking about was the performance of the game. The game has a dedicated fanbase and they should have given the sequel of the original the care it deserved.

Theyy did eventually improve the performance on console but many still do not know if you can play the game at 60 fps on base PS5 and Series X or if they need to buy a $700 console to enjoy this one game.

robtion88d ago

Yes I think the game is good but it didn't have the same impact as the original when it released. The pacing is very slow, it takes forever to travel anywhere and then what do you know, microtransactions to fast travel. Really scummy move.

MeteorPanda88d ago

....why do you lie? The stones are earned in game, if you just send ppl gifts, the max friendship is they leave gifts at your home where they leave these stones as a reward ften enough. Also there are the carts.

You ppl all attacked this game over nothing. scumbag,

Kurt Russell87d ago

I had no idea they had improved the performance, so your comment is valid to me.

Sonyslave389d ago

Damn dont expect part 3 anytime soon😔

Gamehard88d ago

The director of the series left Capcom not long ago, so I think chances were already less than slim unfortunately. :(

Gamehard88d ago

I'm a big fan of the first game, and 2 was fun first time through, but the game really could use more in the way of replay value. Still holding out hope they release a DLC similar to bitterblack isle but I'm not holding my breath.
