The Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 fanbase is in love with the Pawn system, with these companions becoming just as important to them as their own characters. The reasons range from how the Pawns will sacrifice so much to keep their Arisen safe to the extensive customization allowing them to look like real-life people. All of this led to the Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 community falling in love with their Pawns and sharing their stories about it. The game\u2019s subreddit has plenty of these stories being discussed in a post where one player shares: \u201cThe weirdest thing is happening where I\u2019m starting to genuinely care about her in fights, being worried, and wanting to tell her it\u2019s okay when she apologizes for falling into a river.\u201d They go on to say that this is the most emotional about a game they have felt, being \u201coft unemotive.\u201d Others are quick to share their own stories as well, with one user saying, \u201cLove my Pawn so much I imagine them (Arisen and Pawn) just spending a heck of a lot of time doing simple things.\u201d It seems that a lot of Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 fans model their Pawns after people in their own lives, which adds another layer of familiarity to the character. As one player explains, this doesn\u2019t just apply to humans either: \u201cI made my pawn look as close as possible to my actual cat, and gave him the same name\u2026 We\u2019re bros for life even in Dragon\u2019s Dogma.\u201d For one person, the love extends beyond just the Pawn that they created, but also for the Pawns they hire to join their party: \u201cSomeone is trusting me with their other half, so I do my best to take care of them. I always send them off with at least a high-end curative.\u201d It seems even with the threat of Dragonsplague in Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2, players can\u2019t help but love these companions that will always have their back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 players adore Pawns just as much as their own characters CapcomThe Pawn system in Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 is becoming one of the community\u2019s favorite parts of the game, causing them to start caring far more about these custom NPCs than expected.
