So I've been playing a bit more of dragons dogma: dark arisen and I just don't really understand what people see in this. I've tried so hard to like it and this is my 3rd attempt at dragons dogma but it's just so meh. You have to go so far out of your way to not cheese things if you want to have any semblance of challenge, the enemy defense being a flat reduction is the worst (yay doing 1 damage a hit to enemies with 85,000 hp), and even then the enemies are so shallow and one dimensional.

The level up stats based on class is probably my most hated aspect. I want to level other vocations other than assassin but I feel like I can't because if I end up leveling up then I have poor stats for those levels and it's hard enough to actually do more than 1 damage a hit anyway. If I just grind to 200 then everything will just fall over even more than it already is.

The equipment system, the vocation system, the limited skill slots, the overall movement abilities, augments. All that stuff is fine. The bland world, easy and simple combat, and small things that create large annoyances really make this game just not feel like its very good.

I've got like 2 more areas in bbi before I make it to the boss but I'm just grinding now so I can actually do any damage myself instead of having to rely on sorc pawns to deal damage. In the main game I'm doing the 4 quests for ser whoever after having joined the wyrm hunt and I feel like there is no way I'm going to have the motivation to go through the rest of the main game after finishing bbi.
