Dragon's Dogma Up for Pre-Order on Steam

Hmmmm finished first main quest in the capital and then some guy told me to meet some chump near the castle to help out, then it said i cant finish a quest i had relating to someone from my home town? Not sure why, no warning lol
Yea, there's missable/failable quests.

Dont fret over them.
 
Because the story progressed so the quest was no longer relevant. I'm assuming it was the Quina quest?
If it was, then Quina is no longer "lost" and so the quest to find her is automatically failed. You can find her at a new place now and get some more sidequests if I recall correctly, I won't say where she is though ;)

Thats the one. I wasnt too sure who she was anyway, i assume shes the girl from the beach at the start.

Ok doesnt sound like i missed much then! Still sort of felt like i did something wrong unknowingly :(

So do you find good items gear etc or is it best to just buy stuff?

Also im about level 15 fighter now, so what does one do from here? Try an advanced vocation? Does that then bring across moves from my first 15 levels as fighter? But unclear on all that stuff
 
absolutely love this game.. runs amazing at 1440p just wish it was 21:9 and it would already be my GOTY :( just those bars ruin the immersion for me... other then that its pretty awesome game... running a very atmospheric sweetfx profile that really darkens the nights....

so hope someone does a 21:9 fix cause gsync makes this game super smooth!

The NPC does make it very clear to you during the dialogue that "please make sure you do not have any outstanding quests as these will be unable to be progressed if you accept this new one" I guess its easy to miss if you are skipping through the dialogue but you defiantly get some form of warning.

Both. The shops update their stock as you go through the game so its worth checking every now and again to look for the "NEW!" icons in their inventory. But you do find better pieces than the shops offer every now and again (Gryphon Armor comes to mind).

In theory its possible to complete the game at lvl50 as a Fighter if you wanted. Ideally you want to wait until the profession is maxed (all the red wax seal symbols are full) this means you have unlocked all skills to purchase for that profession. Then switch to a new one and start the process again, depending on what you switch to some of the Core skills carry over and become useful bonus's to your new profession :D
 
Well the female bandits definitely did not approve of the male pawn on my team. I did not want to have to either walk all the way back to Gran Soren or find the nearest Rift Stone (I only got to play for like 1/2hr last night :() so what did I do? Picked him up and chucked him off the side of the mountain :D It was only the most effective method available at the time. But now when I get back to the city I'm going to give him a poor combat rating... :p

Im not skipping any of it must have just mis heard or mis understood it somehow, dont recall it happening :( ahh well no problem!

Thanks for the tips on vocations and items

I personally got my key from Kinguin. Their cheapest key they had at the time was from a reputable seller which had something over like 40,000 trades/sales, so I had enough confidence to forgo the buyers protection which further knocked off a measly 75p (but I really didn't need it so...)

Also you can get an easy 5% off code from them. If you go to their live chat during peak hours (it always seems to be too busy to try whenever) there will be an message saying something along the lines of "we're sorry for the slow customer support, so please take this 5% off code."

(I also had like 5p's worth of credit left over in my kingpin account from buying like one game from them before in the past, but that doesn't really count as a sizeable discount :D)

All in all though the game came to like £13. This was after the game came out too, I think it may have been even cheaper when pre-ordering a few days before.

That's the second progression just before you go see the Duke that he gives you the warning about quests.

The first time you speak to him about the Wyrm Hunt it does close a few of the quests without really warning you, as the "world" progresses a time slot there (people move around and different quests become available etc).

Im not going mad then :D not to worried about it. I did hear it warns you at certain points so i did think i would have noticed it if so, not sure what to go on to from Fighter!
 
I'd suggest staying with a vocation till you max it out -- the augments carry across vocations, so for example; Sinew (I think) of a fighter allows you to carry more weight before it becomes a burden can be used when you change to assassin or mage or whatever. I've got fighter maxed, doing warrior now, then I'll go through strider to assassin - which will be my final vocation change. Pretty sure I have all the useful augments for my character at that stage :)

Some augments carry across. Most do not from what I've seen so far.

The problem with not switching vocations til later on is that you're going to be going against high level creatures and areas but with very rudimentary skills and less augments. You'll still be able to handle it, and you'll level up your vocation even faster, but it's ultimately a pros/cons kind of thing, with no *best* way to do it.

Best advice I think is to just change whenever you think you want to. It's nearly impossible that you're going to screw yourself over, so if you're in the mood to try a new class, go for it.
 
Is it me or is the sound quite low in this game? have everything at 100 but still need to increase my speakers to actually hear lol
 
Forgot how terrifying Death is in Bitterblack isle :D I was in the pitch black tunnels with his passive music playing, got drenched and then BAM! music kicks in and he's right behind me :eek:

Going to start again soon though, haven't really touched the main game and I'm already OP, I actually spent way more time doing the Dark Arisen stuff on the PS3 as well, collecting the cursed gear is just too addictive!
