Dragon’s Dogma Dark Arisen is a wonderful game to sit down and immerse yourself in.

I’ve been going at it the past few days, and it’s surprising to me how this game embodies a lot of staples of FromSoft’s games. Exploration is fairly unguided, apart from your pawns chiming in. Weapons and Gear are just as important as knowing when to fight or flee. Along with that comes the unapologetic difficulty. Fuck around and find out, really. Forgot to rest and save before venturing out? Good luck.

… Yes, I just ragequit after finishing the objective of opening a door and then dying to the cyclops guarding it… Just as I got it down to a quarer of its health. Should have run away. But I didn’t.

    Oh, man! It’s moving up my “must find time to play” list!

    Do you play with a controller or keyboard and mouse?
