Even how the game treated magic was impressive. Sword and Shield users were always heavy, rogue-like characters were always fast. Combat was always satisfying and felt realistic. The game introduced us to a Japanese-Western Action RPG with strong emphasis on action with epic encounters and gigantic creatures to fight.
This review is based on a review code provided by Capcom. The game also got a PC release a few years back and now it is on the PS4. in typical Capcom fashion, had to release an enhanced version the game in the form of “Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen” with more content. This title first came out on the PS3 and Xbox 360 a little over 5 years ago in May of 2012 as simply “Dragon’s Dogma”. Capcom has answered my prayers and finally released Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen on the PS4.
