There is a storm raging online between many potential Dragon’s Dogma 2 players, Capcom and the journalists and YouTubers who reviewed the game.
Dragon's Dogma 2 may have only recently been released, but it needs to get a sequel sooner rather than later due to its unofficial remake status.
Capcom's action role-playing game, Dragon's Dogma 2, has been struggling in terms of sales, even in the presence of discount offers.
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.
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.
PS Store Staff: "We've announced the 2024 annual download rankings for PlayStation®Store! We'll be introducing four rankings in total: PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, PlayStation®VR2, and free-to-play titles. We've also included the annual rankings for the United States and Canada, so be sure to check them out as well.
The number one spot on the PS5's 2024 annual download ranking is the second of the remake project trilogy, "FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH," in which you escape the Mako city of Midgar and travel through a vast world! In second place was "Dragon Quest III: And into the Legend...", and in third place was "Dragon's Dogma 2."
"Most of these reviewers have played the game from anywhere from 50 to 100 hours to make their full judgement, and even getting a short ways into the game, you can see just how easy it is to ignore the extremely limited quantities of what’s being sold here"
It's not the point, they should have told people, it's their job, to inform the consumer about what to expect within a new game and what to watch out for before they buy.
Fact is nobody wanted to p*** off Capcom and get blacklisted or stop getting super cool press release packages from them.

MTX ≈ Bad
But spending $10 more on the deluxe edition is OK. Even though you're getting items that could be more helpful early on in a game.
I'm not defending MTXs but don't pretend buying the Deluxe version of some games doesn't give you a leg up early on.
Probably because they’re completely optional and all of it can easily be gotten in the game.
I don’t remember Monster Hunter World reviews going all “let’s burn this mother f*cker down,” with basically similar micros like buying a character editor. At least in DD2 it’s available for 500RC’s.
This has gotten blown out of proportion due to misinformation and people just quick to grab torches and pitchforks without doing any research.
How come Helldivers 2 doesn’t get flack for having micros? Such hypocrisy.
Because its a nothingburger
