...And how is that not accurate? Look at the other crap that has released throughout the year.

The first was pretty clunky at times and the second required co-op if you hoped to enoy it, but if you got used to the gameplay in both, they were actually great games. Much better than generic third person shooters, at least.

...Which the third one appears to be, sadly.

Look in the direction of Bravely Default instead, then.

That is actually a con. I hope the game isn't full of stupid scripted segments that deter from the gameplay (which, I also hope, is not shallow as hell) and only serve to make the game tedious.

But it most probably will, because that's what the tasteless morons that praise crap like Uncharted want, and it'd be far easier to just reskin that and slap ugly monsters on it instead of trying to make something original, a process that involves both risk and reward.

"A few days ago they forecasted the sales for dragons dogma. It was not very good."

It was...it actually was what they always expected from it, ever since they announced it.

And I'd be upset, if Dragon's Dogma didn't look like it already had enough game.

A video that has some stupid pr0 MLG XXXXXQUIXSC0P3XXXXXX G4M3RZ talking about the multiplayer does not equal "overwhelmingly positive feedback", if anything, it speaks for itself.

I also love how writing an opinion of your own equals hit-seeking, it's such a flawless argument against the points of the reviewer.

They mentioned they felt the game was good enough to sell ten million, not that they expected to sell ten million. Their expectations for the game were always of 1.5 million copies.

You should go and read those interviews when they mention that figure again, rather than speculating blindly for whatever reason.

EDIT: Even in last year's shareholder event, Dragon's Dogma was expected to sell 1,500,000 copies. See Page 14 of this document, dating from t...

At least that's a game.

Amazon guarantees the pre-order price, even if it rises later. Which is to say, if people pre-ordered the game at $30, they should get it at $30, per Amazon's own rules and promotions.

The quests are a probability, but all DLC weapons they've confirmed you can just get through the game normally.

Slowtaku lives up to their nickname, indeed.

Yeah, you don't. You only need to be a pretentious hipster or a hardcore fantard to do so.

What a bleak future that is, then.

A virtual economy with actual money for items that hold no value? Adam Smith must be rolling in his grave

Two things: One, letterboxing is usually done in many games to save processing power (and developers zoom the screen in to conceal it, something that apparently Capcom forgot to do, despite the UI placement being done with that in mind, apparently), not to mention you can actually turn off the HUD, the speech, and almost every single thing onscreen. Keep in mind reviewers don't get the retail version of the game, either, instead they just have a less-polished build from months ago. Perhap...

The fact that you got six disagrees tells an awfully whole lot about the folk that browse this site.

Sadly, reviews never tell the correct length of anything but the main campaign. I'm quite sure Capcom here is referring to most sidequests and optional areas in the world.

Still, though, "hundreds of hours" is obviously an exaggeration, albeit an incredibly vague one.

Protip: You can roll in the second quest from the demo. Rolling is exclusive for classes like the strider or assassin, you can do it by holding R1/RB+X/A. The warriors/mystic knights have blocking instead, which does reduce almost all damage (press L1/LB in the prologue quest to block, by the way). And mages, well, they can levitate.

It's a joke, since that action is every bit as artistically brilliant as this video: http://www.youtube.com/watc...

Which, for the record, is genuinely recognized as "art" by braindead idiots.

The funny thing is that none of those look exactly like Smash Bros, down to the player color scheme and all, no health bars, etcetera.

Unlike, y'know, the complete ripoff Sony's pulling off.

No, but it seems you are.

What he said is actually accurate, to boot.
