Dragon's Dogma Online to be shut down

that's unfortunate, specially since I never got to play it as it was never brought over to the west and I'd rather not play it with terrible ping
but at the same time, the possibility that Itsuno is working on DD2 means that this isn't a big deal at all

It's hilarious to see posts like this when the other DD thread has people loving DDO who want it to come west, only for this piece of news to arrive.

Would Capcom truly be back if DD2 happened?

>What is DMC5
>What is RE2make
>What is MHW
>What is the inevitable DD2 that Itsuno is working on

Instead of a sequel, they made an mmo. The two were never going to coexist.

why not? MH had 2 MMOs which lasted for many years.

shit, i just bought it cuz it's on sale...should i refund ?

Nobody played it because it was japan exclusive, not because nobody wanted the game

The jap only MMO is shutting down, not the original game's online functionality

MH is also an ancient franchise with like half a dozen titles now, not counting re-releases. Hell, it's one of Capcom's biggest series. Of course they'd sink more money into it.

ohhhh ok

But DD2 is happening
didn't Hitsuno? said he wanted to work on it?
the biggest "fuck capcom" is killing Frontier,because it had a lot of shit that's not on other MH
unless the madmen are working on a classic mh with all the shit from frontier

that's a vague as fuck answer that doesn't prove why a DD mmo couldn't exist alongside a sequel. a MMO gets shut down if it doesn't make enough profit, that's all, that's why both MH mmos are getting shut down too.

DMC5 had Itsuno's team in it yet they didn't need to shut down DDO beforehand to make it.

>including MHW in there as a positive
I agree with you otherwise.

>Of course they'd sink more money into it.
Hence why they kept re-using tons of assets until MHW? They aren't exactly big budget games you know.

Yikes.

Wiat what? Is this confirmed?

To be honest I have a strange love hate thing with DD, it feels like such a slog in the first half. I'm on the part where that dude with the magic shield betrays Mercedes.

I don't know every time I play i just lose patiencce but then something great happens and I continue playing until it gets boring.

Keep crying,MHW is the best selling game
If you google Itsuno Dragon Dogma 2 you'll find some news where he's thinking about working on it
I think he had to pick between DMC5 and DD2,and if DMC5 was successful then capcom would let him work on DD2

Everything ends.

Please let dragons dogma 2 have a co op option.

I just want to go on an adventure with friends :(

Reminder that in yesterdays game informer MHW video they made some weird remark about Dragon's Dogma's future.
They're shutting down DD Online because they're getting ready to release the true DD sequel.

Dragons dogma switch. Is it worth it?

Are YOU worth it?

I knew this was going to happen because they don't want competing games but RIP

I...yes...?

Why cant they just make Standalone non online versions of these games.
Playable like any other Online games.
As in you make a server and invite your friends.

Weird, wasnt the game getting updates even not long ago?

Why would DDO be Japan exclusive when the majority of the sales from the series came from the West?

Because they’re too lazy to make a single player game work online.

Capcom being Capcom

>some weird remark about Dragon's Dogma's future.
They only said they'd have DD news today. This is the news.

Dragons Dogma 2 better be a fucking finished game you can actually do shit in and the game doesn't have a rushed boring ass story.

PC version is the ultimate version.

Japanese people are some of the most clueless people on Earth, stumbling into success by pure accident.

Well duh? If someone's asking for a Switch version chances are they're not at home all the time and want to play it at a friend's place or something.

They're shutting DDO down because DD2 is going to replace it, online multiplayer and all.

>They only said they'd have DD news today. This is the news.
No, it's not. He was asked why he wanted to bring the franchise back and said there'd be news today.

What do you Anons want to see from DDO being imported into DD2?

He never said anything about bringing it back today. You're looking at what the interviewer said, not what Ryozo said.

if that were the case, they would shut it down closer to the release of the sequel
it makes more sense that the team working on DDO is being shifted to work on the sequel, and not that Capcom doesn't want the two games to compete

You're not reading my posts. Again, you're looking at what the interviewer said, not what Ryozo said. It's called dodging a question you idiot and it happens literally all the time.

Probably because Capcom branch for online game is failed to reach target.

He didn't dodge anything.

Do you need a mod? you brain is leaking all over the floor.

THE WIND IS PUUUSHING ME!

>remakes and dulled down normalfag bait
wow such a great redemption

COG is the branch that developed MHF and DDO, they're left with two mobage games after that if they're not dissolved. Could be a shift in manpower or layoffs, but with how the TW version of the former went out (halfway through an entire update cycle and scrapped the missing monster off the previews) I'd assume they would've had to known about the closures for quite a fucking while.

Not dodging the question would mean that he said "Yes, DD2 will be announced tomorrow". Instead he said "there'll be DD news tomorrow". It's tomorrow already and there's DD news, looks like a dodged question to me.

You're really stubborn, I mean, your mind was already set in stone by claiming "this isn't the news" without any proof.

Sounds a lot like Frontier, though at least the current armors are actually good. JP Frontier still goes through its usual premium motions with gacha sets on rotation and shitty lotteries with stingy rates, even a Netcafe booster here and there. I mean, they likely already offended their whales with a six month notice of permanent closure, so I don't get why they're just going about the usual. Makes me wonder if the final month of the game would actually have some fun fucking around shenanigans like free Z100 Ravi weapons.

I'm half-surprised the devs didn't do anything new to send off the game on a higher note or at least tried a soft-reset, but there's also a fair deal to fix up.

MHF and DDO are Capcom, MHO was Tencent.

Attached: 1535200613645.png (359x344, 171K)

to be honest it wouldn't be too hard for dragon's dogma online. iirc most of the game is client sided, so they'd just need to rework the hub town.

The world itself. It was very fun to explore.

Damn, I just started it like a month ago.
I just got my third pawn and level 60

No, DDO and Frontier is COG, Capcom online dan Smartphone branch.

>they likely already offended their whales
Same thing happen in Explore, when they literally said on update stream that EVERY weapon that previously obtained will became obsolete (including the gacha) by new tier mechanic unless the dev pick one to be buffed by upgrade (Even then the current tier gacha weapon still superior).
They enraged player so hard, the next month update stream only filled by negative comment making the atmosphere heavy.

Well, I suppose Deep Down will certainly never be a thing at all.

Here's your reply.

Let me go to the moon.

Why would you want a zelda clone when DD is on the table.
Capcom is the best dev on the market right now. Prove me wrong.

I think DD would turn out as a better sequel in 2019 than a theoretical Okami 2 but I know Okami 2 won't ever happen so I'm gonna shitpost it.

Okami wasnt really that good anyways.

I just think Okami was one of the weaker "capcom" games.

I don't.

Why do fags care about this when it was nip shit only as is?

bing bing

Okami's pacing was screwed up from stretching everything out. Shaving the game to half the length would've been to its benefit. It approached DK64 tier in terms of mind-numbing repetition.

Attached: hulk sad.jpg (474x503, 39K)

pigs are so fucking disgusting, I wish I could club that thing on it's head with a hammer but I know it would start screaming louder than a fucking shredder.

I find it funny that Capcom's online games and mobile games are the worst games in the industry in terms of microtransactions and terrible industry practices which all failed while their singleplayer games all did incredible well and have none of those greedy stuff in them.

First of all, you're both retarded.
Ryozo never said there would be DD news tomorrow.
Furthermore the fucking interview was recorded over a week ago.
The interviewer asked about the revival of DD and Ryozo said that he'll "ask about it in tomorrows meeting"

Both of you are wrong and retarded.

Sad, I never got to play this. Was the co-op actually fun? Do you think they'll make it an option in the sequel? I always thought DD would be fun with co-op.

Letting you team up with another arisen and both running around with your pawns sounds like fun.

first DMC5 and then DD2? we dont deserve itsuno

Attached: 1561049274351.jpg (380x376, 45K)

So DD2 will be developed by the DDO team with Itsuno at the helm? And DMC6 will be the DMC5 team with a new director? Or do they completely reshuffle devs for every new project?

there's really no chance they'd make DMC6 without Itsuno, it's his franchise
also, I don't see another Devil May Cry being on the works anytime soon,as I believe Itsuno would rather work on something else for now
most (or at least some) of the people that worked on DMC5 are likely to work on whatever game Itsuno is working next, and it's possible that it's Dragon's Dogma 2 because both Itsuno and the fans have shown interest in it
also, bringing the some of the DDO team to work on it would make sense as well, and this cancelation could be another hint towards the start of the development of DD2

>there's really no chance they'd make DMC6 without Itsuno, it's his franchise.

Its technically Kamiya's franchise, Itsuno has wanted to find a new director since DMC4. Itsuno himself even said that he only views himself as a foster father to DMC.

So DD2 then?

Itsuno has a habit of just taking whoever he wants into his team. I wouldn’t be surprised if he just takes his whole or majority dmc5 team along with him for DD2 and also snipes top talent from like 3 other dev teams within capcom cause he can just do that. He did the same for the original

Actually, the most of Capcom's talent during DD's development was on Resident Evil 6

They started giving away golden orbs (the p2w money) as the login bonus, but they removed the loto - as in the main reason to use them.

They're the best dev hands down. Currently and of all time.

Honestly they could literally port the entire game to a single player experience (with adjustments to the grindy MMO shit) and it would be fine.

Didn't Itsuno say something about some conference today about DD2 in an interview?
What about that?

Good, now we can get an english private server and a new Dragons Dogma.

whenever gameinformer uploads the newest video

Must have been bad seeing as how it is getting shut down.

The series has always been semi-popular shovelware that the japs and weeaboos faggots would just eat up, so jewcom made mad cash by copy-pasting 99% of the monster roster, adding a tiny amount of QoL and maybe one or two more monsters and re-releasing it the hundredth time.
When they actually tried instead of just photocopying the series again, they shat out world which (except for content quantity and difficulty) took a huge dump on all the previous installments and made itself capcom's best selling game of all time.

stop making online only games. When this game shuts down it's gone for good and there will be no way to play it. It's just a fucking waste to throw a game into the trash can.

I briefly played it when it first launched but damn I loved the game and it felt like it was actually already out in english before the big purge happened. we had a channel filled to the brim with english speaking players and capcom being lazy forcing P2P in parties made sure our connections were great.
It had great emotes, AMAZING character creation, badass combat animations, a gorgeous outside world to run around in and even a damn hot spring where you could get lewd with other players.
I just hope it improves DD2 multiplayer.

heres your DD2, bros!

This When Capcom can make a brand new series with the same quality as their recent releases THEN I'll call them Capgod. For now they're just making hyper-westernized versions of things they've done in the past. For RE it's perfect but for DMC and Monster Hunter it lost a little bit of the soul the series had.

Then the Capcom redemption arc ends early.

All the monster designs and the raids. God-tier IMO

Also, actual fucking online playable pawns

on top of all that, all of this happened after DMC5 finished production. DD2 is absolutely happening

Why put MHW in that list when MH has been capcom's most consistently successful and good series since it started? The only thing world did differently was actually get noticed in the west for once.

How are they gonna make DD2 with RE Engine? I know monster designs will still be great from the looks of DMC5, but what about humans?
