I was trying to make my journey as mystical and charming as possible, so I went for a somewhat ‘Child Mage’ look. Yes, I chose a short man as my character. Wait, that wasn’t my character? What the hell was the point of all of that?! Is it supposed to be a flash forward? If so, my four foot tall hobbit character really grew up. So, some unexplained door opens and the game cuts jarringly to a character creation screen. It also didn’t help that my allies were shouting “The lion is weak to magic”, despite the fact that I didn’t have anything magical on me to use. Many of the melee animations look like pieces of paper crunching up against each other My allies also die very quickly, which is easily fixed by me just going over to them and pressing B, so the whole battle made me feel uncomfortably invincible. It kinda looked like I was stabbing the beast, but because many of the melee animations look like pieces of paper crunching up against each other, I couldn’t really tell. I resorted to climbing on its back like an overly friendly toddler and moving my body around.
It didn’t start off so bad since I was using a sword, shield and there weren’t many enemies, but the Chimera takes a huge amount of damage and I was never really sure if I was even hurting it at all. After six hours I’m kicking myself for not just quitting then and there.Ĭombat in Dragon’s Dogma is monotonous and messy. The Chimera battle was more of a sign that this game was bad than I first thought. I’m getting sick of games that just have dragons being the size of big cars. So far I’m not as hooked as I expected, but that dragon is pretty cool I guess. I see a dragon, it talks (which was pretty cool actually) and then we fight some goblins and a Chimera. The game starts surprisingly abruptly as I play as some random man walking around in some ruins to apparently fight a dragon, for some reason. Don’t think of this as a review, more like a gaming journal…written in blood. And yes I know that those are some very popular games I just branded, so I guess that makes my opinion automatically wrong, right?Īnyway, allow me to recount my 6 hour trudge through Dragon’s Dogma. Dragon’s Dogma is the worst game I have ever played.Įven my most hated of games like BioShock, Prototype, Red Dead Redemption and Might and Magic: Dark Messiah at least have some semblance of charm and character.
