Support NeoGAF

[Raide]

Please be Multi-format. Non of this exclusive cock-blocking.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Oh god, I can't help it.

New Dragon's Dogma. FUCKING YES!!!!

Please don't be an MMO. Please don't be an MMO. Please don't be an MmO.

The up side is just way way too big to not get excited about this a little.

 

[Prototype]

This already sounds amazing.

 

[Seanspeed]

i think it's Deep Down too.

Large open world RPG turns into F2P procedurally generated dungeon crawler? C'mon.

 

[Creaking]

Deep Down didn't even have free jumping, from what I could tell from all the footage I saw. Can you imagine Dragon's Dogma without being able to jump?

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

The up side is just way way too big to not get excited about this a little.

Must resist getting too hyped........

 

[delSai]

Wasnt one of the insiders here saying DD2 was supposed to show up at PSX? Maybe it is this, but i doubt it. Probably a remake.

 

[GHG]

Oh god, I can't help it.

New Dragon's Dogma. FUCKING YES!!!!

Please don't be an MMO. Please don't be an MMO. Please don't be an MmO.

You know how this ends already.

I've skipped straight to stage 5 - Acceptance.

 

[Kane1345]

Something tells me this is going to be an MMO.

 

[StoppedInTracks]

When is the Famitsu out?

I am in Tokyo right now and can buy it in Bic Camera or wherever they are selling it

Ono's tweet

Yoshinori Ono @Yoshi_OnoChin · 50s 50 seconds ago
はい。鋭意制作中です。続報はお待ち下さい。 RT @daysonparadise @famitsu Deep Downはどうなったんですか!?

Someone asked "what happened to Deep Down?" and Ono responded that they are working hard on it and wait for news update.

So I assume this is not Deep Down changing it's name.

 

[Arklite]

It has a different name, for starters.

Deep Down doesn't even look that great. I'm not sure why anyone who's olayed Dragon's Dogma would as hellbent for Deep Down to be a sequel to it as some folks on GAF are. That game is an F2P cash grab they can't even get off the shelf.

I'm not hellbent on linking the two, I'm just very aware of Capcom's shortcuts and rehashes. I hope very much that this is them redoubling their efforts on one of their best new IPs, but I'm not going to be surprised at disappointment.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

It's too late, you said it three times.

You are already hyped.

I'm pretty damn excited right now. It's finally happening. I still can't believe it.

Now all Capcom have to do is announce a new Asura's Wrath and I'll never, ever say a bad thing about them wver again.

Ono just posted this. What does it mean ?

edit:Beaten

 

[crinale]

Okay Ono just said this isn't Deep Down which is under development.

 

[Benzychenz]

Deep Down didn't even have free jumping, from what I could tell from all the footage I saw. Can you imagine Dragon's Dogma without being able to jump?

Dragon's Dogma without being able to double jump?

 

[raven777]

When is the Famitsu out?

I am in Tokyo right now and can buy it in Bic Camera or wherever they are selling it

Thursday

 

[gundamkyoukai]

not getting my hope up.
see this being a online mobile game.

 

[Squire]

im pretty sure Deep Down is the project code name.

I feel like the case you're making hasn't been valid for a calendar year. It's not like it's the PS4 reveal where all we have are what seems like a code name for a game with guys in armor and dragons. We know the premise and basic gameplay structure of Deep Down and it's distinct from Dragon's Dogma.

 

[duckroll]

Officially it comes out on Thursdays. But some shops will break street date, so info will leak tomorrow.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

5 heads in the logo instead of 1. So 5 players?

So excited, but then I remember it is Capcom...

 

[Kyoufu]

DDO isn't Deep Down.

 

[Laughing Banana]

Well, just to let myself not falling too high.

...I expect it to be either: mobile game or MMO or F2P game.

 

[TasTokyo]

Everything has already been covered. However if anyone wanted it here is my rough and quick translation.

Dragon's Dogma becomes an online only title! Take down massive beasts with your friends.

The open world action game was released in 2012 by Capcom. The reborn Chosen, whose heart was stolen by a dragon, embarks on a grand adventure across Gransys. Then in 2013 the additional content Dark Arisen was released to expand and add new elements to the title.

　Now in January the 29th’s Famitsu the new Dragon’s Dogma Online will be announced! As an online game you will be able to enjoy the action with your friends. In the article we will detail the available platforms and information relating to the story and multiplayer systems. There will also be interviews with the developers and more. Join us for this 18 page blow-out.

 

[Tu101uk]

Ono just tweeted that Deep Down is still in development (Please Understand) so make of that what you will.

https://twitter.com/Yoshi_OnoChin/status/560007367660556289?s=09

On topic, looking forward to what'll be revealed. I would take a Dragon's Dogma HD remaster (not too fussed with added co-op but would be a nice bonus) but this is interesting news all the same.

 

[Keasar]

Dragon's Dogma without being able to double jump?

Dragon's Dogma without being able to Greatsword Helicopter!?

 

[IAmRandom31]

So very close to awesome here

Please be awesome

I will be pissed if I can't wall run off a steep cliff and double jump onto a flying griffins back though

 

[Lee Chaolan]

5 heads in the logo instead of 1. So 5 players?

So excited, but then I remember it is Capcom...

Aww, damn that would be glorious.

Imagine if it's 5 players AND each of their Pawns, so you'd have 10 character parties potentially!

 

[fedexpeon]

i think it's Deep Down too.

Oh geez, this would be worst than a P2W game. Let's hope that DD isn't the code name for DDO...
From the few video, Deep Down combat looks so bad.
And the environment and level design? LOL, my office layout looks more interesting.

 

[MrBS]

THE WIND IS PUSHING ME

Yes. I'm ready.

 

[Creaking]

Dragon's Dogma without being able to double jump?

Imagine all those griffins flying just above your head, taunting you as you run in circles.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Aww, damn that would be glorious.

Imagine if it's 5 players AND each of their Pawns, so you'd have 10 character parties potentially!

And a shit ton of "Kill it with fire!", "None may touch the Arisen!" etc etc.

 

[Raide]

5 heads in the logo instead of 1. So 5 players?

So excited, but then I remember it is Capcom...

5 Player co-op. You all play the same dragon.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

I'm trying not to get too hyped, but I just can't help it.

You know how this ends already.

You have to believe! I have faith that Capcom wouldn't have a massive magazine spread for an MMO.

Then again....

No, Capcom will deliver this time. They will deliver

 

[Lee Chaolan]

And a shit ton of "Kill it with fire!", "None may touch the Arisen!" etc etc.

That's when we hope they'll have fixed the Pawn stuff by then!

Spoiler

of course we know it won't be ;o

 

[martino]

If no offline, it's is a huge mistake imo

edit :
after reading thread interpretations :

 

[MavFan619]

Well, I want this.

 

[Squire]

Ha, nice catch. Dont Souls games support up to five players? I know they're largely unlike DD, just checking the stat.

 

[Creaking]

Now I'm imagining 5 players straddling a griffin. Or even smaller, an Ogre.

 

[antennaehead]

Waiting patiently for full info. Online is bothering.

 

[Blooddimond]

Ha, nice catch. Dont Souls games support up to five players? I know they're largely unlike DD, just checking the stat.

in Dark Souls it was four, but one hostile, and I believe the DS2 re-release is allowing up to 6, but not all friendly.

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

Bloodborne does

 

[duckroll]

Ha, nice catch. Dont Souls games support up to five players? I know they're largely unlike DD, just checking the stat.

Not exactly. Souls games generally support 3 players (host + 2 summoned support) when it comes to co-op. It doesn't make sense to count invaders.

 

[Lernaean]

I just hope it's good. Please be good.

 

[ClutchAnderson]

So does that mean millions of arisen are going to be skulking around? Guess I'm no longer a special snowflake :/

 

[Benzychenz]

Now I'm imagining 5 players straddling a griffin. Or even smaller, an Ogre.

If it's designed around co-op they can make everything bigger and badder

Like, Ur-Dragon size.

 

[Troubled Bat]

I'm pretty damn excited right now. It's finally happening. I still can't believe it.

Now all Capcom have to do is announce a new Asura's Wrath and I'll never, ever say a bad thing about them wver again.

You still won't believe it when it's confirmed that we can play with 4 other players. :3

But..

Spoiler

Asura is dead.

;_;

 

[Megaversy]

Why do people think this is DeepDown?

 

[Stimpack]

I'm ok with this.

 

[Creaking]

So does that mean millions of arisen are going to be skulking around? Guess I'm no longer a special snowflake :/

Maybe you'd play as your pawn when you join someone in Co-op? As it is, there are already a ton of Arisen out there, borrowing pawns left and right. You just never see them.

Spoiler

Playable pawn with Give Useful Advice as a skill, please
