Love u punk duck but ffs the upload schedule makes me think u quit KZhead everytime lmaooo
Sorry, punky ducky baby. Even if you're my favorite motherfucker on the planet, even you can't get me to play that hot garbage. Love you though, homie. ❤️
Does anybody know what game this 2:38 is in the background?
Dragon's dogma has been one of my go to rpg's for a couple years now. People say the game isn't very deep, but I'd disagree. You can stand in awe as your lvl. 149 pawn shoots a cyclops in the foot with a bow instead of aiming for the eye and think "Wow, this guy has the brain anatomy of a cucumber." Shortly after, you realize that the pawns learn from you, and it really awakens a new sense of self discovery
Sometimes they cant learn shit cause you feel creative, shoot a cyclops in the eye while its standing on a ravine bridge, and that ass just fall to his death while stomping around confused. Hilarious moments.
Wait what? So, if you're a melee class with a ranged Pawn will you need to basically only climb monsters to keep your Pawn's behavior set to do so?
@@andrewmeyer3599 you can order around your pawns so I'd assume you can order what or which part to attack Though it's been a long time since I last played so I'm not really sure
@@andrewmeyer3599 If I remember correct you can alter your pawns behavior at a tavern or something but by default they use your playstyle as a template.
sounds like you are bad at a bow class. 😂
describing warrior as shit, and then immediately showing footage of an arc of deliverance and following it up with "you should play warrior" is the most warrior main thing i've ever seen.
This game genuinely feels timeless. I loved it when I was 12 and I love it now that I'm 23. It just hits every single spot
I guess in a way, when you grow up and become an adult, you have a power to make your own decisions. You are not forced to go to school compared to when you were in Elementary School. You have more freedom and when you want to be a part time student, you can so you most likely get more time to play that game. We can all love the game more as an adult compare to being a kid because as an adult, you get to have more time in your hands compared to when you are a kid. You get trusted to have a house to yourself more then when you were a kid. It makes it more easier to find passion the more you have time to commit.
That's wild, I just bought it a couple of days ago. So far having a blast. This is coming off a DS2 run(that I haven't finished because f that game lol) and playing nothing but souls/elden ring for the last year and a half.
Yo también lo empecé a jugar a la misma edad y lo sigo jugando ahora, el mejor juego incluso ya compré la preventa del 2
Same playin it rn 😭
youngin
Honestly beating the game on NG+ is the single most hypest moments you'll probably ever have if you didn't see it coming. I still get chills remembering how I felt when it happened because I actually made 2 different characters on each playthrough.
Man Im lil bummed cuz Im on my first NG+ rn and I didnt know this. Wouldve love to experience it.😭

I played dragon's dogma last year and it blew my mind. It's a masterpiece
Ayy, same!
It’s so good, it sadly got overshadowed and overlooked by the Skyrim crowd…and personally I think it’s vastly superior
As a Dungeon Master and a lover of world building in all kinds. This game fucking rocks dude. There is so much to this game that makes all the stroylessness and fetchyness so much more bearable. The combat is incredible and in depth, the characters dont feel too dead or robotic, everything just works too well. It makes you feel like a badass when you start fighting all these big ass monsters back to back and struggle to survive. This was the first game that felt like a high fantasy ttrpg come to life. The worst part about this game is when i forget to save and then die and lose like 2 hours of progress cuz i didnt get to a checkpoint
Honestly the story itself isn't bad at all its just told poorly at times and is plagued with pacing issues. The lore and world of DD is truly intriguing and I wish it wasn't so misunderstood.
@@JG09101 i think the sark arisen story for bitterback isle is dope
One of the best points about DD is how free movement system is. And even though it was tested much more extensively than one could imagine (as could be understood after trying to access unintended places), they still had system in place that would teleport you if you get stuck... Truly cool
So would you say the movement system is...*INTO FREE*?
@@NightSkeptic exactly :)
The confrontation with the dragon is one of the most incredible experiences in gaming. From his calm, menacing philosophical monologue to the actual battle, it's all incredible. And the sheer amount of different endings you can find is spectacular. Plus there are all sorts of secrets in the game, like using Wakestones to bring enemies back to life and get them to turn over a new leaf. They're only mentioned and used in a single quest and most of the time they do nothing, but if you rub Wakestones on everything like this is an old-school point-and-click then something interesting may happen.
mate, how? how do U use wakestones on enemies? throw them?
When I figured out you could ressurrect NPCs with wakestone I was shocked for a while thinking what I could do when it came to quests in this game. I love this masterpiece
@@efrdref8595 you can bring back Julien if you choose to kill him
@@efrdref8595 in certain quests you fight and kill enemies and after the cutscene their body will still be there: walk up to it and it should let you interact with it then the option will appear. The main one that comes to mind is the knight that fought Mercedes and you have an option to intervene or let their fight go on.
@@ShadowNemesis575 My first thought was using it on the guy Mercer Kills in the main quest who was one of the worshippers. Kill him yourself, you get Mercer's respect for not being a hero afraid to dirty his hands, then rez the guy to keep your conscience.
I will stand by the stance that, including the excellent From Soft examples, I've never seen a more Cinematic, climactic, thematic, and absolutely PERFECT Boss fight as the final confrontation with Grigori, the titular dragon. The presentation, the dialogue, the setting. Those moments will live on in my head forever.
Grigori was no joke for my first time. Finally a game that actually treats a GIANT fire breathing dragon as, well, a GIANT fire breathing dragon
Also the Dark Arisen island revealing more stuff about the Arisens and Dragons, with a hard but fun boss... Can't wait for the second game
One of my favorite scenes was the zealot on the wall when the dragon comes out of nowhere and is like "Sup" remember me, the real boss of this game.
@@christopherjones7191 I forget, doesn't Grigori also interrupt your fight and steal the kill from you?
"I ask again. What is your purpose here, Arisen?" Yep it's absolutely amazing. And @Andrew Meyer yeah after you killed the two liches that the Darth Siduious-lookalike culttist boss summoned, he goes into another monologue because he feels the dragon approaching only to then be stomped mid-monologue by Grigori who tells you he finds screeching cultists annoying as hell. :D
I just wanted to thank you for getting me back into dragons dogma after stopping after like 5 hours. I have now beaten the game and I can definitely say it was an experience that was worth it. So thank you for giving me that extra push that led me to enjoy myself
Have you ventured into Bitterblack Isle?
I'm gonna do that too now hopefully
After all this year with triple A games like Monster Hunter, BDO, Hogwart Legacy, Star wars and others. Dragon Dogma still number 1 in my heart, the game is a masterpiece. It's also the first game that introduced me companion system, new combat system and finally climbing a huge monster to take it down.
Man this game is the PEAK of openworld nostalgia to me. I'm so glad that the sequel got announced on it's 10th anniversary and can't wait to see how much they learned from dd online.
trailer is out now and look good
Early versions of the game has terrible quality of life and UX hindering openworld traversal, notably stamina and inventory weight, autosaves and the lack of fast travels. Patch fixed fast travel problem. Openworld still rewarding even tho my pawns become pack brahmins since stamina is essential.
If you don’t mind can you please fill me in? Is there a new installation?
i will never forget the very first sidequest i've ever done in dragon's dogma maybe about 3 or 4 hours in, i got to the gran soren inn and discovered notice boards existed. i took one quest from it which said i needed to escort this one merchant to the greatwall encampment. it looked near enough on the world map, and i was confident i would finish it in about 10 or 20 minutes. it took me 3 hours. i went through what i could only describe as literal hell as i, still underleveled at this point, repeatedly revived my pawns dying to a chimera in the woods and some handful of cyclops on the way. it actually felt like every corner i turned the game was playing tricks on me as i got my ass beat by almost every new enemy i saw. eventually i just started running away from everything hoping the merchant would catch up. sometimes he would even die offscreen, and i had to load a save just so i didn't feel like i wasted 2 hours of my life i felt incredible relief when i finally reached the greatwall encampment and the merchant told me the quest was over. he handed over gold, i bought some cool new armor from the merchant there, and i was a changed man, bigger and badder, willing to take on the next big challenge this game would make me face. it was at this very moment i realized i needed to walk the entire way back to gran soren, and made a new save it was unironically such a cool experience to me for some reason, and i still love this game for it. can't wait to do the same in dragon's dogma 2
I went exactly through the same thing, and it was glorious. I miss this sense of danger since my sorcerer can now casually delete most monsters with one spell.
Damn, I went through a similar situation.
Same
Yeah this game casualy gives you an escort mission lvl 10 that goes right next to a chimera or a drake.
similar stuff , needed to reach a place to start a quest getting inside a castle filled with goblins but... suddenly a gigantic dragon was on the path to that place, i tried to be sneaky about it but he could see me and my team from war away , only one hit and my whole team was dead.
This game is criminally underrated and is a blast I've played it to hell and gone favorite class is mystic knight and assasin and the final boss fight against Grigori was brilliant along with the actual combat in general death and Damion were a lot of fun to fight when you didn't over charge to kill them in 1min 2 flat
It's actually rated just fine. It floated around an 80 metacritic which considering how non-optimized the original PS3 and 360 versions were (we're talking 15-20 fps on average, WITH dips and a PC version didn't come until a few years later) is actually quite high. And while it originally had rather lukewarm sales numbers, it's lifetime sales surpassed 7 million.
Turns out we were right man! Thanks for being apart of the fan base, and for being a great creator.
I have nearly a 100 hours in dragon's dogma and I think I've unlocked all achievements. It's truly amazing, like a Mish mash of monster hunter and dark souls with a pinch of elder scrolls The story initially feels generic as all hell but towards the end of it, it truly feels like a grand spectacle I'm hyped for the sequel

Dark Arisen is the best part of the game IMO, honestly worth a try 100%, its a huge dungeon with new bosses and enemies, great loot and some new lore, very entertaining stuff.
Speed runs are funny to watch with all the glitching through doors for loot lol.
The most fun I've had playing the game was starting a brand new strider character and solo-ing the entire dungeon from level 1 until I reached Daimon. Fighting all of these ridiculously tough enemies using nothing but your wits was such an amazing experience and really makes you play the game differently. (It's a lot more of luring enemies off of cliffs and abusing throwblasts until you can actually use the weapons you get from bitterblack relics)
i didn’t even play the actual game. i got strong enough to go to Bitterblack and did the dragon rotten meat glitch so many times by the time I went to do the base story i was too strong so i stopped playing 😂.
The replayability is crazy too because if you do well enough you get the daemon instead of the normal boss if i remember correctly. Unless the original boss is the daemon
@DaSpoopyGhost is the second form Daemon
Played this game all the way through after finding it randomly on steam on sale last year. I absolutely could not put it down, even ended up making a second character and playing a good bit after beating it the first time. Like Landshark Sobek said, its def not a perfect game but its so incredibly unique, fun and interesting that you're gonna look right over all of its flaws.
Just got into this gem. Absolutely obsessed now and can’t wait for DD2 🎉
I want everyone to know it took Ed a full half day to figure out how to make his ass cheeks giggle against Disco Elysium
Half of a day well spent
Charging and casting a meteor shower or giant tornado etc. never gets old and always feels epic. No other game even comes close to this level of awesomeness imo.
I play Magick Archer solely because I love the role of precision artillery and offensive support roles. Life is good until the Metal Golem and Beholder comes.
@@TheNapster153 you play Magick Archer because tactics, i play Magick Archer because I can set my ass on fire, we're not the same.
Two Worlds 2 had the most insane Magic system by far.
Played it for the first time last summer and had an absolute blast! Can't wait for the sequel
Daamn i remember getting this game back in 2013. I was browsing the online stores for some games for my mom to buy me and i just happened to cross this masterpiece. As soon as i saw the cover i was sold, IT HAS DRAGON ON IT. I remember getting the game and absolutely loving it. I wish i could go back in time to experience that period of my life again, it was magica.
Dragon's Dogma is legitimately my favorite game of all time. There are many games like it in bits and pieces, but it stands alone as a combination of everything I love about the open world genre, fighting games, and RPG's. To say that I'm hyped for DD2 is an understatement. Itsuno is too good for this world. Masterworks all, you can't go wrong.
It's a tradition for me at this point to buy Dragon's Dogma for a new system everytime I feel like I want to replay it after a bunch of years. Beating "Satan", "Satan 2" and yeah, also...DEATH in the Dark Arisen expansion is an evergreen achievement which never feels easier or less satisfying, even tho you can get extremely op and kill "Satan 2" in 15 seconds...but then get immediately stomped on by three zombie dragons at the next cycle ahah Jokes aside, I totally agree, the classes are all interesting and the advanced one are even more fun to use, the fighting mechanics are what I was looking for, for so many years, which I can't even compare to anything else now that I think of it. It all felt right...like they were seeing my desires lol. I even like the traveling system, as weird as it can sound, since it encourages you, for the majority of the game, to explore everywhere on your own. I happened to see the 10 year anniversary montage just right after finishing DD and I was like "yeah sure, you're not hiding anything at all with this excuse of a video, Capcom."...but I wasn't still believing in a Dragon's Dogma II announcement until, in my total awe, got really announced a couple of weeks later 😭
I feel you. Once I discovered it, I haven't been able to let go
the best part is that dragons dogma is itsuno's ideal game. NOT the big money maker, quite literally a mashing together of his favourite things, trying to fix the "hit the boss in the shins" concept and generally just having a good time. for the limited time I played DDO and the world that was originally envisioned, all i can say is that the series has a LOT to play onto
Dragon's Dogma is my cult classic. It's the game i always go back to when i need something to play are just relax. I'm so happy to see people starting to get enjoy and experience it. Edit: The OG opening them Into Free is one of most hype opening songs of any game ever and i will not me moved. This is my mountain and i will gladly die on it.
Search for "the battle at the end of life and death Dark arisen ost version" its the unreleased boss music they planned for DA. A metal cover of the base onz.
A lot of people used to argue that the song was made for the game, because it fit so well, despite the song being made back in the 90's or something. It's a really great song as well, sucks that they took it out of the game on Steam. I would mod it back in, but I'm not feeling like doing that for a game that I only spend a few seconds in the title screen for.
That song slaps so fucking hard and I don’t even know what it means
@@Tilearian All you have to do is literally download the mod and put it in your game folder
@@jase276 Too much work for a song that I'll listen to maybe 7 more times before I finish building my pawn, and during those 7 times will probably only listen to the intro of the song for about 20 seconds, mostly to hear the guitar riff. Maybe if I convince my friend to play it on stream I'll also convince him to download the song and put it in game for the original vanilla experience. Who cares about copyrights when it was originally part of the games intro.
I love this game so much, thank you for covering it. Can't wait till you cover the second one!
I don’t understand if you like it or not 😂
Now, I could be wrong, but I feel like Punk Duck likes Berserk
Time to put your grasses on
😂was looking for this comment thought his character looked pretty similar to guts then a second later casca shows up at 6:16
I remember when Dragon’s Dogma was announced and the hype I felt for it back in 2012. I got it for Christmas and never actually beat it until like 2018 or whenever it was ported to steam. I always loved going back and playing it, thinking “if there was ever a sequel, it would be one of the best games of all time. Guarantee.” I’m so happy that I’m not only alone in that opinion, but that after 11 years we’re finally getting it.
“if there was ever a sequel, it would be one of the best games of all time. Guarantee.” THIS THIS THIS SO MUCH THIS. If you never play dragon's dogma i'm fine with it because it's dogshit and there's a reason why it's trash. Dragon's Dogma in it's final form were never trully finished, it was delayed, pushed back, etc to the point capcom bigboss just said "yeah no more pushing back we're losing money at this point" so they just rush finishing it, cut some lose end and wrap it up. That's why it feel somewhat empty and boring in some aspect, while the other parts feel finished fleshed out, epic, and overall been thought about. Now since they pretty much has the combat mechanic done, the overall lore mapped out, and the mechanic more or less done. They just need to think about the story, quest, the world, and the more meticulous stuff. It wil fucking complement the game like gravy on steak *THAT IS WHY THE SECOND ONE WILL BE THE BEST RPG THIS WORLD WILL EVER FUCKING SEE*
@@istheworldreal WE WERE HERE FOR IT LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i m back just to write that we got a sequel and man do I need a HOW TO DRAGON'S DOGMA 2
dude is probably excited for the new one
By far, the best gameplay I’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing. Thank you, Capcom, for bringing this gem to a new era of gaming.
I remember my first fight with a golem was one of the best boss fights I've ever had. I was on the mountain pass to fight the griffon. I had deliberately set out on the journey in the morning because I didn't want to face the unknown area at night. This massively backfired because the journey was huge and it became night time as I got to some of the hardest parts. In the pitch black of night I was walking through a rocky area and all I can see are the sigils on the golem rising from the ground seemingly from nowhere. It was hard to tell what it even was. Suffice to say I was not prepared for the fight and the battle lasted way longer than it should have. My mage was spending more time trying to keep the squad alive than fighting. By the time the squad finally fell the sun was rising and I was able to see that the only weakspot left was right on his head. I could also see my surroundings and realised I could climb a ledge to get a chance to jump onto its head. So the fight ended with my not-at-all-athletically-inclined mage leaping off a cliff onto the head of a monster and then blasting it at point blank range with his staff just as the sun started to break through the gaps in the rocks.
I know 3 months old but that's just cinematic af. This could be a whole fantasy episode by itself from start to finish!
I'm 4 months late but dude you need to try to fight the metal golem located in Witchwood I think is near Selene's house and in the middle of the ocean cuz not gonna lie that would be one hell of a battle (btw if you did fight the golem plz tell the story in reply)
When it comes to travelling at night, it has to depend what kind of television you have. I remember the time I replace my old television, I went like wow! I have trouble seeing with my brand new tv compared to the old tv. I might not remember what kind of old tv I got rid of but it just depend on what kind of tv you have. There are times other tv makes it easier to do night time travelling compared then other tv.
I'd forgotten the old song for the opening after only being able to play Dark Arisen and the second I heard it I got goose bumps and flooded with memories of being 12 and playing this game for the first time.
I'm glad this guy is okay tbh, and the fact i literally just found out about this is insane.
I actually got so attached to my pawn in the first play thru… and the ending tho … it definitely made me play the game probably 20 more times
I had a huge crush on my hot fighter pawn and in the end, caught feelings for sure. Tried to replicate my pawn in my second playthrough but couldn’t, never came close.
@@Tommy-zx4ryyou became a simp for your own creation, dam. Same
"I always refer to this game as 'Shadow of the Dragon's Dogma' due to its similarities to the boss fights in 'Castlevania: Lords of Shadow'." I, too, greatly enjoy Jontron's old videos.
Nothing but FACTS, i got crazy addicted to this game during secondary school this was the only thing i wanted to play, so good honestly 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Yo, I just saw the state of play and DD2 caught my eye so I looked for a video presenting the first one. This video is amazing 😂 You've made yourself a new subscriber just like that !
As a member of this game's (simping) community, thank you for helping spread the word about this game. Only a few people with a good reach are covering this game despite its dedicated community who only just recently celebrated the decade-long wait for a sequel. As a fan of this game, it really REALLY is an okay-ish game. Story's nothing to write home about, a lot of systems are clunky like questing/traveling, and they removed the great opening music from the Dark Arisen release. The combat is amazing though, and it's probably the only one that can rival the combat system of Monster Hunter. If you have the money to spare and time to burn, and interested in a high fantasy RPG, then try this game out. If the gameplay can carry you through the main story, then Dark Arisen may be able to burn you a couple more hours. Again, thank you for this video! Hopefully Itsuno and his team can finally release a game worthy of the passion they envisioned two decades ago. This video is a masterpiece. You can't go wrong!
What do you mean they removed the Dark Arisen music? What was it replaced with?
This combat system blows MH away man…
The fact that the character creator hasn't been surpassed yet 10 years later saddens me. It's magic system and general combat is also unrivaled in presentation and impact as no other open world comes close either. Truly a revolutionary game far ahead of its time.
Games today either have a great character creator and shit gameplay or great gameplay but a shit character creator and the ones with both are usually mmos with shit options in terms of outfits outside of the ingame shop
Nah Dark Souls did it better.
@@brojakmate9872dark souls is not an open world brother
Notably mastering a skill unlocks a new move with big visual changed, that detail
@@cormey8772 Dark Souls also has a vastly inferior character creator and magic system.
We Wait for the video on Dragons Dogma 2 now, because it is as Amazing as the first one
there's one thing you probably forgot to mention: Dragon's Dogma Online was made as an MMORPG to do a bit more in terms of their intentions for the original game. It had a different set of vocations and actually was rather fun. The servers shut down back in like, 2019 but recently there's been some very interesting work on a server framework so that people can play it again.
I love this game so damn much. Played it since release, and there's just something about it that just draws me in time after time. Fighting the Griffon in Blue Moon Tower when you help the man get the grimoire, absolutely epic.
Man that intro music hit and shivers after shivers up my spine... it's been a while. What a game, what a f-ing game. So many things you'll miss and so many things you'll discover if you take your time. I just wish main story was longer, waaaaay longer. ps: Wolves hunt in packs
Okay first off, new sub. Second off, you immediately won brownie points by A knowing that this game is an absolute benchmark for action RPGs and B for using the TRUE dragon's dogma intro song. Instant like
i opened KZhead saw announcement for DD 2, searched wth is DD. your video appeared 2nd, with dd2 announcement 1st. i never heard of this game but the way you make it out to be it should be very fun. im downloading it now :D
I always love seeing these mass gathering of DD fans. I consider this game in the top 5 JRPGs of all time. If I were only allowed 3 games for the rest of my life this would be the first in the list, no hesitation. Here's to hoping the second one lives up to it
What will be the others?
What will be the others?

Being a fan since 2013 and seeing this game still get praise is a beautiful thing. Well met, Arisens, new and old!
one of my best memory of gaming is fighting the last boss of dark arisen with all my pawns dead and I used all the healings I had. I was literally 1 hp and the boss was one hit too, that last hit was so satisfying I'll never forget it.
Damion was a nasty piece of work especially the 1st and 2nd time you fight him .and his 2nd form and that floor before his 🚪 was pretty annoying with the random spawn being dragons and knights and so forth. until later on when you lv 150 to 200 aka infinite then easier. my fav class were the assasin and mystic knight then the magic archer mystic knight and assasin class was broken though 😄 🤣 if you knew how to use certain abilities or buff
randomly found this game on sale on the switch three years ago, best purchase ive ever made and is now one of my favorite rpg's and what i like most about this game is the more you explore and talk to npc the more story and lore you discover, so you can either run through the game as fast as possible and barely know what's going on or explore and find new cut scenes and quest that you probably didnt see in your previous game play. this game is truly a 10/10
Dark Arisen is extremely fun, which is great, since you unlock it right at the start of the game. I thoroughly enjoyed it, right up until I realized you're meant to do it in new game+, and I was still in my first playthrough
What I used to do is do runs through bitter black to get gear that was Higher level than shit I could buy base. And I curbed the dogshit out of it hahah
The Dark Arisen area is unlocked immediately? Where do you go to access it? Sounds fun to attempt underleveled.
@@jaredponder4149 It's not exactly immediately, just very, very early. I remember the first time I went, I still had Rook and was only level 7 iirc
@@jaredponder4149 its unlocked after delivery of the hydra head if memory serves me correctly. you go to the dock in your home town at night and you can travel to it but generally your supposed to be min 50 to 70lv before attempting however right class and weapons and skills you can
He's back with his once every 2 years video
Thanks for the vid man. Had this game in my library forever, never played it. Finally convinced me to do so.
Dropped it then, didn't stick with me. Playing it now again. Best bloody game ever.
I been wanting to try it out since it came out, i finally did thanks to u, and im lovin it gg
Still feel bad for people who have never played this. Was absolutely fiending on this and Skyrim back when they both came out. Amazing game have been playing it for semi regularly for the past decade. Loved it
i've sunk hundreds of hours playing dragon's dogma. i loved how the way your character looks affects your gameplay, the combat. at this point, it has become my comfort game that i go back to whenever i feel like it. very much looking forward to dragon's dogma 2.
I literally have over1500 hours totaled in this game across multiple platforms and didnt know that until; this video lmao
And your prayers came true, sir. THE WIND IS PUSHING US AGAIN soon.
omfg that ad at the beginning triggered me in every way imaginable lmao well done.
8:43 OKAY CHILL WHY WOULD YOU GO THERE!?! Lmao i'm in tears, both from chronic Berserk PTSD and laughter
still rewatch your older stuff to this day - good to see you deliver another banger
Awesome content, and you got me really good when you get the gei sek thing with the blacksmith lmao
One of the things that still gets me about dragon's dogma, is how it still has probably the best magic system I've played in an rpg by far, the magic in other games a lot of times just feels like a replacement for a long range weapon, but it's truly fleshed out in DD, to the point that if two or more spellcasters cast the same spell at once the spells combine and do even more damage
Thank you for making this video. Dragon's Dogma truly is a one of a kind game and I feel like your video does a really good job in encapsulating the general fandom's thoughts about it as well. I also love the parallels that you have made with some other games and I also believe that Dragon's Dogma 2 will be a sight to behold. Thanks for this banger and funny video once again and I wish you all the best!
@@fantasyexplorergg Oh I am definitely keeping an eye out for Final Fantasy 16. It seems really sick and has lots of potential. Also the role of the guy who moved to work on Final Fantasy 16 was a bit overblown by the media. Still doesn't deny the guy's work tho. Either way I think both games are in good hands and hopefully we get bangers as we most probably will :D
@@fantasyexplorergg Hey you know what they say, the more the merrier! :D I am so happy that we are getting such good games! I also enjoy this hype train as well where we talk and get excited about how the games will look like 😊 Life's good 💛
Another masterpiece of a video, good job, Ed ^^. it was worth the wait, Dragon´s Dogma is one of my favorite games of all time.
bro im crying happy tears that you went a guts build i just started my play through and decided that it was guts time
Ive warched this video 5 times in the past 4 days. Idk what it us but something about it just keeps bringing me back. Thank you for getting me back into Dragons Dogma. I forgot this game existed and now I've been playing it nonstop. I genuinely love this game and all of its garbage. It just adds to the charm it has
I love this game so damn much. Ahh to be jumped by a griffin while out for a stroll. Seeing the ominous shadow on the fields. It gets the blood pumping. Also just picking up your really big pawn and tossing them like a biggie bag. Definitely worth a play.
Punk Duck, glad to see you back, hope you are taking care of yourself, drinking water and all that jazz. Take it easy my guy
What do you know, a game play of Dragons Dogma 2 has just released. Your wishes came true, punk.
I actually got the game after watching this video and i gotta say, I haven't had this much fun in like, forever. If you go into it not expecting too much, you get way more than you could have asked for with the sick-ass combat and the amazing ost. Had fun, thanks PunkDuck :)
Your adventures just started and all your team is underleveled so it may not be fun but once you get into New Game Plus, it should be a lot more fun due to you getting lesser game over.
Nice to see you back, excited to watch the video through
Love for Dragon's Dogma in 2023? EXCELLENT
I've been debating buying Dragon's Dogma on Steam to prep for the 2nd game, this is all the encouragement I needed...
I’m currently playing Dragon’s Dogma Dark Arisen for the first time about two weeks now and I cant believe how much far ahead of its time this game was and still is! I’m having an awesome time with specially in BBI. I honestly haven’t been so F***ing hyped for a sequel until now.. can’t wait to get my hands on DD2 but I guess no one can’t 😂
These yearly uploads are so great keep it up 💯💯💯
When he was going on about warrior I was just thinking “yeah but when you *do* hit, you crush anything in the game”
I bought this game a third time in the Steam Summer sale. No regrets at all. I remember playing the base game on ps3 and not liking it so much, until I lost myself exploring with a low levei. I didn t haveva single herb, too far from Gran Soren and with some great itens. Then night falls . I literally camped on the top of a rock, waiting for the sunlight. Then, this game entered my personal top ten games of all time.
Man, I just saw the name of your channel I just wanted to say I used to have a bass guitar with a rubber ducky on one of the tuning pegs, and that rubber ducky had a purple mohawk and spiked collar choker. And also Dragon's Dogma kicks ass
Just got sent this video by a friend who I got into Dragon's Dogma. Not even finished and this is fantastic. Likered and subscribered.
I bought DD 5 times on release for 360, on PS3, again on Xbone, Switch and then on PC. I remember how great my first playthrough was and how even great every playthrough is cause I feel like I learn something new about the mechanics each time I didn’t even know your Pawn copy’s your gameplay I thought it copies the flow of battle. I can’t wait for the second game . I truly hope this franchise gets the recognition it deserves
I also ended up with the blacksmith! Didn't even recognize him at first, it was hilarious.
i think this is the best video ive seen on youtube in a long time, thank you
Dragons Dogma is absolutely one of my favorite games of all time, glad to see it getting the love it deserve
Always a treat when punk Duck uploads
Just started this game and this definitely tells me this is going to be super fun.
That was by far the best and most honest possible review i ever seen
Makes me wanna play through it again. BTW warrior is badass, it's just the hardest class to master. Your timing needs to be impeccable, and you definitely need to enjoy a slow impactful style of fighting in order to play as one. Plus your jump attack is so good it could be considered a skill itself.
You mean just the standard aerial attack with a great sword? It has like no landing lag
Nothing feels better than charging up your Arc of Obliteration and deleting 4-5 hp bars of a boss
The sound design makes it work. When that cleaving arc hits and your speakers blow out with the crunch, the rush of endorphins floors me haha
@@ArmitageShanksuk god, that fucking crunch. *chef's kiss*
It's always nice to see another person experience this game.
We out here again watching punk duck because DD2 is coming out very, very soon. Buckle up, boys and femoids. It's time to play a really awesome game just like DD1, but better.
Im excited to see what 2 brings because it is SO apparent how much got cut out of the first one
I bought dragon's dogma for 11 bucks on late 2022 and my goodness, the story gave me goosebumps for the first time, I loved it. 10/10 would buy again
Story felt weak until the end to be honest. To be honest I feel like the setting and style is what makes the story so good. Not discrediting dogma btw, it’s my favorite game fucking ever. Just saying the story didn’t really feel like anything happened. The Beginning and end was the main story bits. And the rest kinda just feels like lore adding and not actually story. Did you know Goblins reproduce through UNDERGROUND BLOOD RITUALS and they are evil tree spirits, ISNT THAT METAL AS FUCK? Yes what I said was completely unrelated, I had no Segway but it needed to be said. Because the anime just made them goblin slayer goblins. And people need to know how fucking METAL the games goblins are.
I bought it 4 times lol. Ps3, ps4, switch, ps4 again after my first ps4 died on me.
Brython- theres definitely a cool story in this…You can miss it but its there. You can also pause the game and look at the chronicles which tell you exactly whats going on lol…
What? 11 bucks? When I purchased that game way back in 2020 and before state of emergency hits. Dragon's Dogma costs 5 bucks.
It is still one of my favorite games, glad you cover the 2nd playthrough, it is still a great plot twist, btw I ended up with the royal knight after just doing her quest
Yeah it seems that Mercedes and the Witch Pawn are the easiest 'romance' options in the game as the requirements for them are practically thrown in your face. Needless to say I was so very confused on my first playthrough when Grigori revealed the Witch Pawn and I ended up with her, cus all I did was stop her from being murdered lol
My 1st playthough was the greedy blonde girl 😄 🤣 who is a merchant Madeline
@@andrewmeyer3599 Then you have to admit that Mercedes is not an easy romance as you thought. Think about this. The one you ended up with was a witch pawn which meant you failed to please Mercedes. Mercedes only falls in love with speedrunners. There is no option to speak to Mercedes last before starting Deny Salvation. Last chance to give Mercedes a wedding ring is before she starts that 1 on 1 fight with Julian. You got to be careful that if you choose to do all sidequest, Mercedes can fall out of love and this game does not allow backup saves. Once you sleep, that is automatically your save state and you are forced to move forward. Mercedes might be your favorite but not exactly easy to please.
Hello mr. punk duck, this is the first video i've seen of you and after only 6 minutes and 40 seconds your voice and humor made me subscribe. i'm impressed.
I obsessively played this game for like a whole year after my first time playing it and I am so damn excited for the sequel
