Zero Punctuation: Dragon's Dogma

It has been a very long time since Yahtzee made me laugh as hard as he did this week!
There's a reason he spent so long talking about the Pawn system, as opposed to combat, and that's mostly because the Pawn system is the most interesting thing about the game. Over all, its a pretty good game. I've been recommending to to people bored with Skyrim. But the Pawn system is by far its most unique feature.

Don't care about your pawn, but if I see an overweight black chick I'd be more likely to check out her assets.
personally I find it to be a satisfying and fun challenge mastering the bigger monsters, especially when you learn some moves can be turned against them. Like the monster yathzee mentions that jumps on it´s back, with a well timed jump command you can make the monster land flat on it´s back, turning a high damage move into several second of free monster whacking.Danzavare said:
Absolutely. Secular philosophy in Japan tends to favor certain European (especially German) philosophers largely because of the affinities that exist between them and scholarly work done within Japanese Buddhism: Nietzsche (death of God = Godsbane; eternal recurrence), Schopenhauer, etc. The art style of the game, the French symbolist quote at the beginning, and the in-game articulation of concepts suggest that what the developers drew on for the trappings of their "Western" fantasy world wasn't Tolkien or the Brothers Grimm.ChaosMine said:
None of the Dragon's Dogma children are quite as annoying as the ones who run around in Whiterun, so I actually hadn't tried. I like that cattle can fight back if you pick on them, though.
I've never heard of this game before but it did strike a note with me. Mainly i think due to the pimping gameplay lol
there is basicly, it´s called a Mystic Knight, tho it playes more like a self/group buffing warrior (think typical cleric classes), if you want more agile mage warrior the closes is the arcane archer, who as it says on the tin, uses a bow shaped item to shoot magic like it was arrows.Danzavare said:
*tips hat* thanks, it was a commission of my 'fursona' tho a bit outdated, have to remember to change to my current
My first pawn was a tall, burly man with dark skin and really long white hair (vocation was warrior) and boy-howdy, people ate him up. By the time I got to end-game (not quite new game+) I had a little over 300,000 rift crystals. 0.0
Now in new game+, I changed him into a dark elf chick (used my stockpile of crystals to buy all the skin and eye/makeup pigments and a "redesign-your-character-and-pawn-anytime-you-fancy" item... but no eyeglasses yet)... new incarnation hasn't been quite as successful. Not sure if it's her level (somewhere around 80 or 90, I forget exactly) or what. I mean, I've seen enough female pawns sporting silk lingerie to know scantly clad ladies are easier to "pimp".

Haven't played the game yet, but thumbs up to any game that lets you create an overweight minority woman character. Seriously, if your game includes a character creator it should include all possible gender, race and body types as options.
Really sick of games that tell you to make a character but limit you to men, or white people, or skinny people or whatever. I'm looking at you Crackdown, Two Worlds, Risen, etc. What is even the point of having a character generator if you are going to arbitrarily limit the players options anyway?
