It's more Dragons dogma so I like it but it's objectively worse than the first in many aspects.
How do the make the Drakes the fights with the least gameplay in your game called DRAGONS dogma.
They constantly fly so high that you can't hit them, and cast magic while flying so you can't scale the dragon to deal with it. They cast meteors that will simply instakill everything in its aoe, and your pawns AI will NOT avoid it.
You only do meaningful damage once you expose it's heart, and the heart can become UN exposed.
The loss damage mechanic is probably the worst conceived thing in the game that tries to force you to camp or stay at an inn after literally any somewhat dangerous fight, and makes curatives effectively worthless because for the most part they don't heal back that recoverable health, and the ones that do, are rare and expensive.
Reviving pawns is horrible in this game, it takes a ton of time, isn't very responsive, and is interruptible by almost annything, which combined with the loss damage, will put you in loops where all you're doing is reviving pawns back to back, because it takes so long that reviving one is long enough for the others to die.

Basically It's just worse dragons dogma one but atleast there's more to do. Game will be good after it gets it's own Bitterblack Isle, and fixes performance issues and the ability to make a new character.

8/10 Would send enemies into the stratosphere again.
Also give us back Into Free you cowards.
