Dragons Dogma Review

Review On Dragon's Dogma

 

Dragon's Dogma is a fantasy, action role-playing video game, developed and published by Capcom. The game is made for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The video game was first released in North America on May 22, 2012. Dragon's Dogma involves single and multiplayer combat.

 

The game Dragon's Dogma is a game mainly for players that enjoy playing fantasy and scientific games, for example Skyrim. Skyrim reminds me of Dragon's Dogma because of the combat fighting, being able to design your own characters and being able to get better armour and weapons. I find that what kind of difficulty you are playing on, determines the fun you are having playing the game. For example, if you are really good at these games, then you don’t want to play on a beginner, you would play on hard difficulty to make it more exciting. I find this game fun to play due to the big boss levels; fighting dragons’ and other weird mystical creatures. Also the change in difficulty, so I can change to what I think is best for me. For the fun factor I would give the game an 8/10.

 

The games controls are really important when playing a game, if they are very complex the player will struggle playing and may not be able to play it properly.  The gameplay in this game is made up of building and designing you own characters and battling goblins, beasts and dragons. I found the controls to be very simple and easy to use and the gameplay was a bit boring but I liked making my own characters. I would give controls and gameplay on the game an 8/10

 

Graphics are important, the better the graphic the better the game. If the game has good graphics it seems more realistic, example showing the bullet hole into what ever you have shot. I found when playing Dragon's Dogma, the graphics were good but not the best graphics I have seen, for example, when in battle you would not see the sword cuts.. For the graphics I would give the game a 7/10.

 

Sounds in Dragon's Dogma are extremely good. The background noise fits into the place/area where you are.  Also the characters speaking and making noises when attacking are great. The only part when the music in the background doesn’t fit is at the very beginning when it goes from gentle music to rock music. I do think that the sounds in the game are very good and I would give the game sounds a 9/10.

 

The replayability, I would not play the game again because there is not much content in it. If Capcom maybe added DLC packs to add extra missions and new weapons/armour I might play the game over again. Maybe in the future Capcom will bring a DLC pack, which will encourage more people to carry on playing the game over again. For replayability for this game I would give it a 6/10

 

Overall the game Dragon's Dogma is a good game to play if you are into fantasy and combat fighting. I didn’t like this game due to the plot of the story but from the graphics, sounds and creating characters to what you want them to look like. The PROS of the game is the sound effects and the simple and easy to use controls. The CONS are replayability not much added content to encourage people to play again.
