I apologize if this thread has already been made. I did a search for Dragons Dogma, and didn't see it, maybe I missed it. But if not, lets use this thread to talk about Dragons Dogma. Whether it be talking about how much you love it, or hate it. Maybe you need help on a quest, or just have some questions before buying the game. Whatever it is Dragon Dogma related let's discuss it here. I just got the game a few days ago and I love it. It reminds me of Elder Scrolls, Two Worlds/Two Worlds 2, Fallout, Fable, and a little Devil May Cry. I'm having a lot of fun with the game. So far I've only done a couple of missions/quests whatever, so I haven't done any real exploring. So I actually have a question myself. Does this game have non story related dungeons for you to raid and loot like Elder Scrolls? How open ended is it really? Can you go anywhere, kill anyone? Are there skills like pick pocket? Or is it more open ended action RPG? Honestly, what I care most about is the open endedness and whether or not there are dungeons to explore that have zero effect on the story. Also what cool features does this game have that others don't? I heard you can combine weapons like Two Worlds to make them stronger, don't know if it's true. Let's talk about this great game. Of course not everyone will like it, but you're not helping anyone by coming in here and flaming. It's one thing to state your opinion and say you disagree and don't like the game, but please don';t do stupid childish flaming. Alright, hopefully this thread takes off, because I'd like to learn more about this game.

Wow, either this games incredibly unpopular, or (and I hope it's not this) this is one of those wanna be elitist forums who won't respond to new posters. I'm hoping it's the former, because I like this place, and thought I finally found a good video game forum.

I've found plenty of places to loot that aren't story related, but the best loot seems to be in the locations the story drives you to. You can't combine weapons but you can enhance them, there aren't any skill trees exactly for things like pick pocket (which you can't do) but you can upgrade different attacks to make them stronger. The thing that sets this game apart is its pawn system which lets you put together a 4person party ( not online). You can use other player created pawns, which I find extremely helpful because I don't like making mages so I use other people's awesome mages, it's a lot of fun.

There are a few unrelated questing areas. The world itself is pretty small compared to other open world games, but due to different enemies and much stronger enemies coming out at night it feels as if though you're in a different place.

There aren't any skill trees. You simply pick a new attack/spe;; once you get enough discipline points. You can't combine weapon's, but you can use combination class's so you can weapons from other class's.
