Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen - PlayStation 4

Dragon's Dogma is an amazing game to pass the time with. If you like Skyrim you will love this game no doubt about it. I'm giving the review an 8, only because their is a few mechanics that should have changed for the remaster. Fast travel- You will be doing a lot of running from point A to B constantly. In a world the size of Skyrim that gets quite annoying after awhile. Ferry stones are way to expensive to purchase because you will want to buy new weapons and gear for you and your main pawn. The game is quite hard, it will not hold your hand while you play. Especially at lower levels you will die constantly if you are not expecting a battle. Boss battle are amazing with the grab mechanic letting you climb all over dragons, cyclops's, hydra, etc.

Very good game, unique combat for all classes and an interesting story. Great amount of content and can be experienced multiple times through different playthroughs, not everything will be seen or finished in just one go.

Open world RPG from the creators of Devil May Cry 4. Really had fun with this one. There are a few things that could be annoying, depending on your playstyle; for instance the way fast travel is handled and night time in the game being REALLY dark and that darkness being filled with really powerful enemies. Besides that, there's a lot to like with this game. A few small details I liked were being able to douse an enemy with oil, hit them with fire and they take more damage and stay on fire longer; similar effect if their wet, lightning attacks do more damage and have a higher chance of stunning them. Overall it's a great game and definitely worth $30.

This game is throughout enjoyable and massive in scope. The combat feels good, when you swing your axe it feels impact (unlike Skyrim). The game can feel overwhelming at times and sometimes difficult to track where you are suppose to go, but if you enjoy getting lost and exploring this game is for you. For instance, I was trying to get to point A, but ending up in a Church, by the time it was over I forgot I was even going to point A. RPG elements are strong and the Pawn system is a unique take on your party. Basically, you can summon other peoples characters as NPCs and they can fight along with you. There is a graphical different, but nothing too memorable. If you are looking for a lengthy RPG to fill your RPG void I would look no further.

Game plays great. Its sort of like Skyrim and Vintictus combined. Only thing I wish was that their was online coop as after an hour or two the game feels a bit empty.
