There are no update release timings as yet, but the developers have already made some adjustments to the game’s buggy pawn search feature, following player complaints. “We have finished work on the pawn search feature, and now pawn searches, including those with the Quest Knowledge criteria, should be working properly,” reads anothertweetfrom this morning. “We apologize for the inconvenience and hope the pawn search serves you well as you play.”
Speaking as a vintage Dragon’s Dogmatist who played the original way back on ye olde Xbox 360, I’ve found it interesting/maddening to follow the reaction to Dragon’s Dogma 2 from players who are new to the series. There’s been a fiery reaction about being limited to one save file per playthrough, which I’ve seen branded with the dread designation “anti-consumer”.
There’s also been some pushback against a new mechanic - potential spoilers ahead -Dragonsplague, which simulates the spread of an infection between recruitable, online Pawn characters which may eventually drive your Pawns into a murderous rampage. It sounds very entertaining, to me, but I imagine it must be infuriating if you don’tnotice the warning signs in time. We might do a separate piece on the subject.
