What you need to know

  • As Dragon’s Dogma 2 launched on PC Thursday evening, a previously hidden suite of microtransactions became available for purchase.
  • Things you can buy for the single player ARPG include fast travel points, Rift Crystals for hiring Pawns and buying special items, appearance change and revival consumables, a special camping kit that weighs less than normal ones, and a few others.
  • In response to the microtransactions, Dragon’s Dogma 2 is being review bombed, with the game currently sitting at “Mostly Negative” on Steam.

    Man the update sure made the author look chastened huh? I wonder if they were pressured at all?

    Anyway, new topic:

    Following its launch, Dragon’s Dogma 2’s rating on Steam has slowly but steadily improved. At the time of writing this update, it has risen to “Mixed,” with 42% of all reviews giving it a positive score

    I would be interested in whether the steam rating is being “review (what do you call the opposite of bombed? Review bumped?) bombed” in a ⏫ direction. Anyone read those positive reviews? How do they seem?
