Dragon's Dogma (Xbox 360) Reviews
| 30 of 32 people found the following review helpful  An incredible game, sadly underrated, By = Fun: Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Dragon's Dogma (Xbox 360) (Video Game) This game seems to have been misunderstood and unfortunately underrated by a number of gaming journalists. It's very hard to explain because it's actually a pretty unique game, but you can think of it like Dark Souls meets Skyrim if you want a really lazy way of summing it up. That doesn't do it justice at all, because here we have people that have worked on games such as Resident Evil, Devil May Cry and Breath of Fire all coming together to deliver an incredibly atmospheric and compelling action RPG.The story follows your character, who shortly after being created by you - with an excellent character customisation system - has his or her village attacked by an enormous dragon. After an ill-fated attempt to fight it, your heart is ripped out and eaten by the colossal dragon. Yet, somehow, you're still alive, albeit with a huge scar on your chest like Sagat. You can also hear the voice of the dragon in your head, urging you to track it down if you want your heart back. Then...

It exists like a dish at a swanky restaurant. None of the ingredients are particularly new or mysterious but the way the dish is prepared and served is unique. In a similar way its flavour is a hard thing to describe succinctly in words but rather it benefits from trying a slice yourself.The combat gameplay is excitingly frenetic and satisfying. You can climb the terrain to drop down on groups of enemies, jump on large enemies and climb its frame, throw goblins off cliffs, set up holds for party members, use all different types of arrow, blade, and battle-axe, and witness the games generous set of spectacular spells, which are a sight to behold in action. Given that the game comes from the same developers who made Devil May Cry and Resident Evil 4, it is definitely not one of those RPGs where combat serves only to pace the story...
