I bought Dragon’s Dogma 2 on Steam to do my review. I’m not a PC Master Race or anything, I usually played on consoles on games that gave me the option, however, I am currently giving more games on PC a try, and with that in mind, I honestly never had this much problems with a game before regarding crashing and performance. Looking at Steam reviews and the internet, it’s clear that it’s not just me, but many people are experiencing these kinds of problems.
At first, the game ran fine on high settings by default. I created my character and started playing. Without giving spoilers, there is a moment when the game lets you choose between going with a group of NPCS or alone. I chose to go alone and explore. After that, it began. The game crashes, I restart, the game crashes on boot, I restart again, the game crashes on loading, I restart one more time, the game loads I walk around for 20 seconds, and the game crashes again. I tried many things, lowering the graphics, limiting the frame rate, disabling ray tracing and nothing worked. Just so you know, below are my pc specs:
These performance issues plus the microtransactions and the presence of the Denuvo DRM are not making the player base happy. The microtransactions are especially absurd since it costs $2 to change the Arisen and the Pawn’s inclination appearance, besides the game having 21 DLCS, all with mostly negative reviews on Steam. I do know some people are playing fine on PC and if you are one of them I congratulate you because I absolutely cannot do that.
Now, from what I could see, the gameplay appears to be good, I especially liked the combat mechanic that remembers Shadow of The Colossus, where you climb onto giant enemies to hit weak spots. But unfortunately, that doesn’t matter if you can’t play. From what I read online, it seems that the console version of the game doesn’t have performance problems though, so that’s another history.
I don’t even need to play the full game to say that if you plan to buy on PC you should wait. Capcom has already made a post on Steam stating that they are aware of the problems and are working on a fix. However, if you plan to buy Dragon’s Dogma 2 on console then do as you will, considering the other problems mentioned above. Do keep in mind that the game runs at 30 FPS on consoles which is unacceptable for $70.
