Yeah, Skyrim's dragons are kinda pathetic compared to DD's. I mean, they don't even try to possess you or your companions in Skyrim. And no spells. And no poison gas. It just seems so wrong in retrospect. At least in the Dawnguard DLC, you get to fight an undead dragon. (Dawnguard is the longer, better DLC. I like Dragonborn, but the MQ is way too short).

We have a Vita, but I doubt we'll be messing around with that DD spin-off.

@Carcharoth - yeah, Remember Me is brutal to your wrists. Playing that game makes me kinda feel uncoordinated and clumsy. I'm a blundering mess at times. It's a good thing Nilim looks cute regardless.

Well I think I'm done with this game for now. Got playthroughs of Witcher 2 and Dragon Age: Origins to go through. Then there's Red Dead Redemption. Mass Effect 3 (finally purchased it to experience the epic endings) and Tomb Raider which I just ordered.

But I will be coming back to this game. It's become like Dark Souls for me, meaning it's the game I come back to now. Can't believe I'm saying this but I'm looking more forward to Deep Down than I am for Dark Souls 2. Deep Down -being revealed recently as not being connected to Dragon's Dogma by Capcom as I suspected*- just sounds amazing and if that trailer really is the in-game engine and actual gameplay then I'm sure we're going to be impressed by a range of visual eye-candy. If it's anything like Dragon's Dogma with its gameplay and innovation then we're in for a treat. It looks set to be a more hardcore RPG though with a more realistic combat system.

Also from what Ono has been saying on Twitter, it seems this game may have multiplayer since he mentions something about solo play.

My interpretation is that this game will be like a mix between Dragon's Dogma, Dark Souls and Monster Hunter. At least I'm gathering this from the only trailer released. It could potentially be like a dungeon crawler when you need food and rations for survival and perhaps you're battling deeper down into some large dungeon/cave (judging by the working title it seems the game revolves around journeying down). If there's any groups of regular enemies then I can imagine utmost caution being involved while bosses could require expert strategy to defeat. This is where your party will probably be the most important and it's here where co-op (if there is any) would truly shine. Imagine taking down that dragon in the trailer with your mates or simply just playing most of the game with them facing the challenges of the underground together?

*Mind you Capcom might just be telling lies. Perhaps Deep Down is Dragon's Dogma 2 or a spin-off but if you ask me it seems they're trying to go for realistic combat here. Here we observe a knight hiding behind a shield as the dragon breaths fire at him, barely holding on and also striking carefully at the dragon while an elf fires at it from behind a wall. In Dragon's Dogma we see frantic action and the character and pawns grabbing foes and climbing up large enemies to bring them down. If you ask me the two seem to have different gameplay and I doubt they would be getting rid of Dogma's combat and revamping it for a sequel when they've expressed that they're proud of it.

Still hoping this comes to PC. Come on Capcom...

Okay I have a romance question 

I want Reynard as my LI. I have him at max affinity, and actually he is my only NPC at max affinity right now, and I plan to keep it that way.

I've read that if you complete Search Party though he will disappear. Should I just not complete the quest? Will that make sure he stays around and gets kidnapped by the dragon?

The info/wiki on this game is just not as comprehenisve as DA or even Skyrim stuff!

Complete the quest. If you keep everyone else at low affinity (watch out for Aelinore) he'll come back if he's your LI. Make sure to give him the Arisens Bond before he leaves just to make sure.

I usualy find more useful info in the comments and other forums.

Ahh but I blew my chance to get one because I missed Witch Hunt. And no way am I sleeping with the duchess.

Okay, I'll give him his journal stuff right before the last Duke's quest. Then he'll only be gone for a little while. Not that his absence will hurt me in a material way; his goods are pretty lame!

The quests are the only thing that's really complicated in this game, and that includes the romances!

I have a few extras gathering dust. I might be able to send you one if you're on xbox.

Indeed I am!!!  Thank you! How does that work? My name's the same here as there.

If someone's on your friends list you can rent their higher level pawn for free. I can equip your pawn with weapons and armor that you receive as a gift with the exception of Bitterblack Isle weapons and armor or Everfall weapons. I can also give you a regular item as a gift when I dismiss your pawn. I already sent Arya back with the ring a Dragon Band and an Ascalon (unfortunately forgot to dragon forge it). I sent you a friend request so you can use Briana for free. She's level 200. You should also consider happy_daiz and Shepeenwepet's pawns.

I friended you  I'm off the night though, so I'll try out the awesome Briana next time. How do I receive the gifts you gave Arya? I checked her current inventory and didn't see anything new. I suspect I may have to save and restart. So we'll see, next time I boot up the game xD

OMG I'm so excited I'm going to get that darn Arisen's Bond LOL I was so ticked when I realized I'd missed the Witch Hunt quest. Also missed Valmiro's quest. This game is a beast when it comes to unknowingly completely missing quests. Oh, was also unable to complete The Conspirators (Maximilian's quest). Very annoying!

[Carcharoth42]

Rest at an inn and you should receive the items and rift crystals from your pawn being rented. They're moved to your item storage after you're notified.

I'm finishing up a DN run in DAO, and am planning on coming back to DD:DA very soon. I just can't stay away from Team Sexy.

One of my other BSN friends (well, he's no longer on here, but I met him here) just started playing Dark Arisen a couple of days ago. Of course, he's a 'planner', so he's read up on everything he can about how to solo DA. He's a Dark Souls addict, so I guess he's used to high stress situation with difficult enemies and environments. But he claims he's going to play with no support pawns, as he's doing an 'autonomy' build. I told him he's insane.

But anyway, I might try out his pawn for giggles. She's a warrior build, and I don't think she's ever been anything but warrior. So she'll be tough, but not particularly well rounded. We'll see.

I still have to get the hero achievement, but I'm afraid if I start playing again, I'll be drawn back to Bitterblack Isle.

Here's an old shot of Team Sexy/Team Sovereign's Mantle after being asked "which of you are going to be knocked off this bridge by a rampaging ogre?"

At least they let me know beforehand.

Arg. I miss them.

[happy_daiz]

Brings a tear to my eye, it does.

[Carcharoth42]

Indeed. I miss team sexy.

My pawn has remained a warrior, and this is bad? I thought about changing her class, but I hate the thought of having to buy all new armor, weapons, etc. But in any case... what is a good complimentary class to warrior?

My Arisen has gone from strider to magick archer, as I imagine a lot of people do...

[The Hierophant]

The Magick Archer's overall damage output benefits more from Mag over Str. Depending on your level you should switch over to Sorc to boost your Mag and unlock it's Mag boosting augment Acuity. Since you probably spent a lot of levels as a strider your stamina allows you to spam MA's abilities.

Speak English, man! 

Nah I'm playing on easy, so it's cool so far. My Arisen I'm not worried about. Just would like to make my pawn more... er... marketable, I guess.

[The Hierophant]

What level is your pawn, it's stats, vocation, skills, and augments?

[coldwetn0se]

@motomoto - Are you playing Dark Arisen or the original Dragon's Dogma? If you are playing the original DD, I can friend you, rent your pawn and give you some new armor that would be good for a mage/sorcerer. I have plenty to spare.

I think we are something like level 41 now. She is a warrior (S&S). I'm not sure what augments are. Skills, I would have to fire up the game to tell you

Sadly, I am playing DD:DA!  But thank you!! 

I think I like him staying as a magick archer; it seems ooc for him to suddenly become a sorcerer... I role-play that he was an archer all his life and recently learned a bit of magic. Doesn't make sense that he would suddenly become a full blown magic-user!

But the pawn, I feel it makes sense for her to swtich classes often since she isn't human and is only trying to help my Arisen.

[coldwetn0se]

I do intend to purchase DD:DA, but haven't gotten to it yet. If you find someone in the meantime who can gift your Pawn some pieces that boost Magic, it will make your attacks with the Magick bow, and elemental daggers be much more lethal.

Augments are abilities that give bonuses like Vehemence, which increases strength by 10%.

That's cool.

If you want the best strength gain you should level the pawn as a warrior (greatsword) for physical damage, or stick to the fighter for better defense. In the end it's up to you, but don't switch over from Magic to Strength classes as your damage output would be gimped. 
Also ask happy_daiz for some gear.

I'm back to DD:DA again too. After my corrupted save and having to start all over from scratch, I lost quite a bit of my enthusiasm but I couldn't stay away forever. ;P

Had fun the other evening playing with happydaiz' pawn (who's a real cutie, by the way...elf ears!) and a couple other friends too. I'm very open to xbox friends right now too for fellow DD players. If you guys have empty slots, please add me! Gamertag is the same as here.

I'm still early in the game (doing Wyrm Hunt quests) and only at level 32, so still have not completed even one playthrough, but will be working on this game exclusively for the next few weeks, at least. I would really like to finish it once before I venture back to Bitterblack Isle, and gain a decent level before I attempt the harder dungeons. My pawn is still pretty derp-tastic as well, so I really need to work on getting both of us leveled.

I switched to Magic Archer the other night, and absolutely love it, although I do miss being able to heal my poor pawn when I was rocking mage. It's a shame I don't have as many choices for my pawn though, I would have loved to have him as a Mystic Knight.

[coldwetn0se]

Anyone still just playing the original DD? My current PC and pawn are level 94....I have a ton of extra gear I would be more than happy to give, and if you need a higher level pawn for free, you can take my elf pawn Chase, out for a spin. He is currently a Sorcerer, but he is fully leveled in all vocations available to pawns, so I am more than happy to switch him to another vocation.
