What you need to know
- As Dragon’s Dogma 2 launched on PC Thursday evening, a previously hidden suite of microtransactions became available for purchase.
- Things you can buy for the single player ARPG include fast travel points, Rift Crystals for hiring Pawns and buying special items, appearance change and revival consumables, a special camping kit that weighs less than normal ones, and a few others.
- In response to the microtransactions, Dragon’s Dogma 2 is being review bombed, with the game currently sitting at “Mostly Negative” on Steam.
It was armor. It’s… of fucking course it had mechanical impact, that was the point. Only the color was cosmetic.
But mounted combat in Oblivion wasn’t really a thing, so your horse having armour never ended up mattering.
Horses pick fights in Oblivion. A lot of them get killed. Horse Armor was a direct response to player complaints.
