billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 6hEven if DD2 Dark Arisen is a great expansion it doesn't change the fact that DD2 base game was good, it was just rushed out the door by Capcom in an obviously unfinished state (exactly like DD1) 020
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 6hUsually not one to call people tourists but the amount of people I've seen say in the past week that Dragon's Dogma 1 was bad until it got the Dark Arisen version later is mindboggling. Yes, what saved DD1 is the optional late game dungeon a fraction of the players have ever even been to. Sure. 110
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Multiplayer needs some work. Should probably have more modes and less nonsensical matchmaking, and i hope the new planes and missions for it aren't just a handful every 2 months. 000
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 04/10/2026had to change my steam password cause of a rogue login attempt so i made it super duper long this time and then i realized i was the login attempt because the login attempt ios notifications are like 3 hours late for some reason 100
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 04/10/2026it was the lead designer explaining considerations they had to make while making civilization specifically, from what i can tell. its an ancient blog post though so its super far removed from its original context 100
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 04/10/2026oof... well it looks really really nice without upscaling and motion blur but yeah fsr is a plague 010
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 22/09/2026the gamma radiation would simply make me into ang lee hulk 020
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 18/09/2026i was not brazilian enough to play it in portuenglish this time. maybe my next playthrough… 010
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 18/09/2026brazilian drug dealer before 4: demons from the portal to hell i opened are still in the favela and now i have to save mamadas from ronaldo was pretty good. i liked the new movement and the area designs were cool. 120
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 05/09/2026i often see a similar sentiment in magic now too, a lot of people are fine seeing other fantasy universes like LotR or Warhammer get crossovers (people even seem to have generally liked the Last Airbender set) but hate that 70% of the sets coming out are TMNT or Fallout 4 or some shit 101
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 04/09/2026these guys are lucky the DD2 fighter feels so good to play. you can ragdoll goblins like its yakuza kiwami 2, using their limp bodies as projectile weapons. sometimes if you perfect parry an archer he bursts into flames. you get the DD1 assassin’s gouge. its fucking awesome 010
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 04/09/2026also the knocked down/crawling state your character is sometimes forced into in Dragon’s Dogma 2 is so dogshit it knocks the whole game down an entire letter grade. why are capcom obsessed with making all their newer games feel like you’re wading through sludge with broken ankles half the time 110
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 04/09/2026the thing newer monster hunter titles and dragon’s dogma 2 do where when a monster ground shaking effect happens you go into a weird stumble state and move at like 5% speed feels so much worse than the old canned stumble or stagger animations did imho 110
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 13/08/2026closes one of my eyes and pinches my thumb and pointer finger in front of my other eye to squeeze your head off 110
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 23/07/2026do you think its a shield that bears milhouse’s likeness or a shield that protects you from milhouse 120
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 20/07/2026yeah that ones a tad expensive on steam so im gonna give it the old ‘wait a year and check back’ 011
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 20/07/2026the nice thing about 6 is that your solo offline mode progress counts towards online so if you get 70 percent offline you can host no limit online lobbies 110
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 20/07/2026on steam i have 64 percent completion on EDF6 with 260 hours played 110
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 19/07/2026idk why he's complaining he literally has some cool glasses we can see them on the codec 010
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 19/07/2026well technically you need to clear every mission 3 times per class (Hard, Hardest, inferno). iirc there are like 140 missions in EDF6 so thats 1500+ missions 100
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 19/07/2026kicking myself for putting off playing this for 7 years 101
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 19/07/2026this image has become incredibly important to me as of late 210
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 16/07/2026even on CC immune enemies that dont actually get paralyzed and just get a status effect from it the multiplicative damage bonus from the kabuto is insane 010
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 16/07/2026paralysis is so busted in nioh 1 especially with the hino enma kabuto 110
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 04/07/2026i vaguely remember one of their bags having a kangaroo on it as a kid 000
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 04/07/2026your doctor is either very worried about you or a vampire 000
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 28/06/2026now that i am 30 i can feel my bones shrinking and my organs desiccating 000
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 07/06/2026i got a new computer and its nuts how much better everything is running on it. dragons dogma 2 can run at 120 fps on mostly maxed out settings this is awesome 010
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 09/05/2026i was saying you should watch this for years! we gotta watch the other aliens some time 110
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 07/05/2026cons: need to learn linux (ive heard its easy nowadays) pros: no microslop shit, will no longer be able to run the executable file for league of legends 100
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 07/05/2026have you ever played ace combat zero. life is beautiful when you’re playing ace combat zero 000
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 01/05/2026thought this was a rat snake for a second i was like damn ok 110
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 27/04/2026this is a sentiment that probably only like 4 other people on the planet will understand but theres some balance changes and stuff that imho remove a bit of the original’s whimsy in service of the expansion’s grimdark tone. it’s hard to articulate 010
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 27/04/2026i wish the original version of dragons dogma was on steam, pre-dark arisen. i miss that version 110
billy @gentlemanwizard.bsky.social · 24/04/2026back in heavensward i played on controller with a keyboard for chat and extra hotbars, but now that the number of hotkeys needed just for job actions is so high i dont know if controller is remotely feasible anymore 000
