50mn of Dragon's Dogma Switch docked footage

Easier than Souls. It gets a little tougher in the post game, and the DLC is definitely challenging.
If I remember correctly there were a couple difficulty spikes early on but nothing too bad. After that its fairly easy depending on your build. Only hard stuff for me was in NG+. It's a really fun game. Great fit for Switch.
Button prompts indicate it is the Switch version. ZL/ZR and Minus button is a dead giveaway.
i think they mean it looks identical to those versions, performance-wise.
Looks great, I wonder how it plays in handheld mode; side note how many times must I buy dragon's dogma for capcom to come out with a proper sequel?
That's good news then, I take it.
QLOC definitely doing some good deeds.
If this can hold a semi-steady framerate then I'm in. The Switch is in desperate need of some more good open world titles that don't start with Sky and end with Rim.
I hope there's a new OT for this (if not I might make one). I know I'm gonna have a bunch of questions to ask about what class to pick, what to do, etc.
No, you can only get 60fps on PC.

That's what I meant yeah lol. Thread title would have been different otherwise.
The beginning can be pretty challenging while you're still getting a feel for the combat and your class. Endgame is decent as well and the DLC ramps up quite a bit.
It can be hard in the beginning when you're still learning and don't have good Pawns. There's a specific part where it wants you to go up a path that has some VERY strong bandits and it's a better idea to run than fight because they will wreck you.
Then it gets easier and easier then gets hard again in the post-game.
The DLC Bitterblack Isle can be accessed from the start and is doable but incredibly hard. It's more tuned for being level 50 or so but if you're good you can go there at level 1.
I'd love to play this on the... plane, toilet, anywhere. Mobile. What else would I mean?
Get the Switch version. QLOC seems to be doing an amazing job handling ports.
The context leading up to your final sentiment seemed to imply that the game's lack of difficulty was what made it a good fit for Switch.
Had flashbacks to the Cuphead Kotaku article from a few weeks back.
Thought it was a Nintendo-is-for-babies thing
I've bought this game too many times to buy it again.
What game isn't a great fit for Switch then?
Oh no no no. I absolutely LOVE this game. I want it on everything it can be on.
When did they said that QLOC was handling the Switch port? I can't find anything about it (I know they did the ports for current gen, though)
Looks good.
I've never actually played this game, or seen much of it. Can someone give me a really short elevator pitch of the gameplay? Is it like Dark Souls with a party? Or more like KOTOR? Or neither?

They just released Devil May Cry 5 after 10 long years you have to wait a little more ☕
Dragon's Dogma is one of my favorite games of all time but c'mon.
As long as you want really. You can probably rush the story in like 15 hours. Doing all the sidequests can pump that up to 40. Post-game maybe another 20 or so.
But then there's the Bitterblack Isle DLC from Dark Arisen and that's like a whole nother beast, with its own unique stuff going on, you can spend many more hours just doing that.
Add to the fact you can switch to any of the job classes at the Inn, you can spend time gearing up each of them, you can easily beat 100 hours.
Sounds good.
Now if only this will be a €40 release instead of a full priced one. ;)
EDIT: just checked and it's 30eu even! What a treat. Though I guess the downside is no retail release?
DOUBLE EDIT: There's a retail release even. So there is a God!

god i need a dragons dogma 2 announcement.
Looks friggin great though. If it can hold a 30 fps while not looking like the muddy PS360 versions in portable mode then it is a more than good enough port!
Probably won't get it though because I played too much already and there's way too much coming out this year.

It's only £25 on the UK eShop so it's probably only €30 digitally.
Capcoms pricing strategy for the Switch ports so far has been quite good - like the quality of the ports. Just for the upcoming RE4, REmake and RE 0 ports they seemed to have increased the prices for no apparent reason.

Looks just like the PS4/Xbone versions... exactly as expected.
For all the shit that people have (rightfully) given Capcom; the actual quality of their Switch ports has been rock solid. Generally all of them have been a match for their base PS4/Xbone counterparts (graphics/FPS wise) and have even had Switch specific features added; like gyro aiming in RE:R 1&2 (and hopefully RE4 as well...) and touch screen support in Ace Attorney Trilogy & Okami HD.
All the more frustrating that they refuse to port their major titles!

They brought Dark Souls to the Switch, and I guarantee if they announce Sekiro, people will be claiming it's perfect for Switch, for some reason.
Unless you need portability, buy it on PC you say.
I'm genuinely curious. What percentage of ERA do you estimate own PCs which can play DD at 60fps?
