Dragon's Dogma has always held an incredibly special place in my heart. As someone who's favorite game is Drakan: The Ancients' Gates, this game has given me the best vibes.

My only qualm is that it can take forever to collect the items you're after. It takes even longer to fill out the entire list of combinable items. If you're into repetition but also like that kind of thing, this game is for you. At the time of the games release, I was wary to try it but when I did, it stole my heart. The graphics and such do show the age of an almost decade old game. I never play for graphics so it never really bothered me.

Overall a 9/10 for me. 1,500+ hours total on different platforms. Great gameplay, mid storyline.

The ability to change classes is what makes this game so much fun...30 hours as an Archer.. then 30 hours as a Magic Shield Man...then dual blades ...all with their own power fantasy snd play great... some of the world design is excellent( mid elsewhere).

fun
