Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 players lambaste \u201cunrewarding\u201d gear system CapcomThe Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 community is railing against the game\u2019s gear system, claiming that its being in shops renders exploration useless. Despite largely positive reviews, Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 has seen a fair helping of criticisms since it launched, including how most of the game\u2019s best gear is available through the merchants in various cities. The community is not happy with the fact that the best equipment in the game can\u2019t be found through going to a certain place or defeating a certain boss. Because of this, to them, the exploration in Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 feels pointless and lacking any real substance. A post on the game\u2019s subreddit goes in-depth into how the most of the best gear can be purchased at a shop. The poster is not vague in how they feel either, saying: \u201cI have no idea why they pushed all the loot onto the traders, but it\u2019s the worst part about the game.\u201d The rest of the Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 community is in the same boat as well, feeling that the loot system is a big damper on exploring the open world. As one player explains, \u201cSuper unrewarding that the best weapons and armor just have to be purchased and are not found in the world or dropped by bosses.\u201d One person even claims that the way loot works is their \u201cbiggest gripe\u201d that they have with the game. They\u2019d love to see the devs take the gear from shops and spread them around the map to make it better. However, not everyone is in agreement on the the Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 gameplay loop being unfulfilling, as one user points out that the gameplay loop is designed with purchasing gear in cities: \u201cThe whole f***ing point IS to gear yourself at major towns with the spoils of your explorations. Not to magically find the legendary weapon in the back of a cave.\u201d Another user believes that Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 tries to be as realistic as it can be, explainging: \u201cIn the sense that, who in the world makes the armor? The armor shops\u2026 I don\u2019t think any \u2018loot\u2019 found in a cave would be better than what you could buy in town. Whether or not that makes it good game design is the question that the fans are trying to answer, and some are leaning towards that not being the case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
