Lockdown 2020: The Pawn Shoppe: Dragon's Dogma (07/13/2020)

That Friday the 13th box set looks sick as hell

I wasn't there for the chat, but I assume Jason has been told that he still has plenty to do before the main game is actually done, right?

The story in this game is so weird, it starts interesting, becomes almost non-existent, and then becomes really interesting and cool again at the end. Thankfully the gameplay is fun as all hell along the way. I find the heavy weapons to be the least interesting, I prefer fast daggers or magic archer. They are so damn fun to play I'll just fire the game up from time to time and fight dudes even years later. The switch version is great for that :)

@tartyron:

Yeah Jason knows that he is not quite done.

Well played Jason fighting the dragon, now return to Gran Soren and fly into free. Also yes the Friday 13th collection looks great.

The animations on the dragon are real great - one of the best looking dragons I've seen in games

EDIT: Hah poor Jason.. thinking what he has left in the game is "wrap up"

Is jason aware of stamina boost items? I think they are nuts, I forget but yeah its a big help as far as standing still waiting.

(also jason you may not have uhhh beaten the game yet :))

@knoxt: I'm enjoying the playthrough and have nothing but love for Jason but he may be suffering from the common "play once a week" syndrome where he doesn't really understand a lot of the systems.

In a way getting that incredibly powerful pawn that decimates all his enemies with her tricked out late game set made it so that he doesn't have to do a whole lot of work and in turn learn about armor and proficiencies and items etc.

On the flip slide, better play like this and see the ending which is really cool than get bogged down and not finish it at all.

I love that Jason play this just like I did, with the purple dlc waypoint on the map the entire game. I genuinely had no idea how to remove it / access the DLC for 1.5 playthroughs.

@unastrike Speaking of Dragons did you fight Alatreon in MHW yet I finally got my first solo kill after 9hrs of fighting him he is one tough SOB.

WOW, HE MISSED (OR DIDN'T PLAY) 2/3 OF THE GAME!!!

That's wild that the Dark Arison version copy ends the main game that way...is totally misses the point of the whole game! I mean, it is not like Jason would have understood some of it, because he skipped so much...but DAMN to change that ending is criminal. The entire side mission story about Selene is crucial to the the meaning of the game. The priest, in your own village, tells you someone about the cosmology of the universe and world you inhabit.

Its such a shame it turned out this way...what a let down.

Oh, next episode gonna be GOOD.
