I'm pretty excited about this since Dragon's Dogma was one of my favorite games.

Looks good, basically the same gameplay as the first game but with updated graphics - which is exactly what I'm after. I like that you can stand on enemies instead of falling through them. The spell effects look really good, and I liked seeing an armoured caster.

Hype!!! Classes look fun. Curious to see if fast travel is better this go around. But I also am not sure I want it. Half the fun was the random battles.

I never played the first, would y'all recommend it? I can probably pick up a used copy somewhere or get the remastered version on PC

It's a great game. Rough around the edges, but there's a lot of charm in there and a huge world to explore. The expansion adds a whole new map to dive into post game, too.

Yes. It's still a pretty interesting approach to RPG combat and design even years later.

This new one looks to minimally change the formula, which is good.
