ConsulCaesar: After abandoning Dragon's Dogma on GOG (not releasing the latest patch), I am wary of Capcom. That's not a behaviour that I want to reward, which sucks, because I think that's a game I would enjoy.
That is frustrating.

This sale was a good price but I don't want to buy a version of the game that does not come with all the updates.
i hope it's a better game then Dragon's Dogma
my my what is that game bad

don't ask what i dont like about DD because i can't no longer recall think it got something to do with your companions and how the game handled quests etc.
Hopefully, it appears on gog as soon as possible.

Ancient-Red-Dragon: No they haven't. Their modern games are chockful full of woke propaganda and revisionist history where they retconn & SJW-ize their characters in their remake versions.

And they also sell games that are only 6 hours long games for $59.99 USD.

And they also treat GOG like garbage and like it doesn't exist and almost never release any games on GOG even though they easily could release all their games on GOG.

Conclusion: Capcom is a very trashy company.
You're certainly entitled to your opinion, and I respect yours, but I just don't agree with any of that. If you can give specific examples of the woke propaganda that their games are filled with, then I'd certainly be more open to accepting your perspective here.

I just don't see how they've SJW-ized their characters either in remake versions. Claire and Jill both looked really good in their remake games. I can sort of see a desire to have a little more on the bonus costume end of things, but the modding community for these games is excellent! If you want a more "sexed" up Claire or Jill then you have some fantastic options.

And look at RE:VIIIage with Lady Dimitrescu and her "daughters". I love that scene where you first encounter the daughters in the main hall btw, but there's nothing "SJW" about these characters.

I can sort of understand where some people are coming from with the game length and cost argument, but Resident Evil games are meant to be replayed! I have over 100 hours on RE2 remake, and over 80 on RE3 remake. In fact, I'm going to do at least another playthrough or two of EACH game since Capcom just released the Raytracing and enhanced 3D audio updates for free.

But I can totally see if you're someone that's a "one and done" kind of gamer, then yea, your money is probably better spent elsewhere, or waiting for discounts. I had no problem getting huge value out of my day one purchases however, and I will certainly be pre-ordering or day one buying RE4 remake also.

As for Capcom treating GOG like crap, well, that's kind of par for the course when it comes to major studios. It's just another store / platform they need to support, and if the games sell pitiful amounts then where is the incentive to do that? At least they made an attempt to release things on GOG, but if the numbers aren't there to make it viable or worth their time, then what can you do?

I wish it were different, and believe me I've reached out to Capcom numerous times over the years requesting more titles on GOG, and they just don't care. For better or worse, the vast majority of gamers are totally fine with buying on Steam, and Steam is Capcom's primary platform now. To their benefit, Capcom even goes the extra mile and removes additional DRM from their games after some amount of time.

TomNuke: That's something unique to GOG, and likely only because the game had poor sales for them on GOG. Do you really expect or have seen Capcom abandoning games on Steam? I mean, they just gave free raytracing & enhanced 3D audio updates to RE7, RE2, and RE3.

It sucks about Dragon's Dogma on GOG, but it is what it is. I don't necessarily blame them if the game flopped in sales here. It's not like the game is broken and unplayable either. The game is totally fine and absolutely worth the sale price right now on GOG if anyone is looking to buy it.
Why on earth would you assume that the game flopped in sales here? What are you basing that on? It's currently ranked as the 316th "all-time bestselling" item in the catalogue here. (It was also released here well after its initial release -- about a year and a half later, judging by the oldest reviews). It might well have been less successful than they'd hoped (Square Enix-excuse style), but that's quite a different thing.

It's pretty simple actually, because logic says that if the game was successful in the eyes of Capcom then more games would have made their way here, and they have not.

And you're argument doesn't exactly paint a great picture for GOG either. Dragon's Dogma, one of the best open world action RPG's at the time from a "AAA" studio in Capcom only managed to be the 316th all-time best selling game on GOG? That's not good!

GOG who's thirsty for "AAA" games and major studio support and when Capcom puts out one of their better RPG's in recent time on GOG and that's the best it can do? Again, that's not good. 316th all-time when the game has been here for 5 years? Not good.

Regardless of my personal feelings on the matter, it's clear that Capcom wasn't thrilled with the sales. Whether you want to call it a "flop" or not is up to you, but Capcom isn't here anymore, and in their eyes the sales were bad enough that this store isn't worth their time and money to release games on.
I am glad that Dragon's Dogma is gettting a sequel, I just wish GOG wasn't treated like dirt.
At this point, I care more for Capcom to fix the pawn issue in Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen here on GOG than its sequel. If anything, I'd rather have them fix the problem before releasing the sequel here, if it ever comes to GOG.

The initial release of Dragon's Dogma released poorly everywhere except Japan, where it was a modest hit (a number of outlets reported on this 10 years ago). The Dark Arisen release did better in the West, but it still wasn't a big initial seller. Over time Dark Arisen gained a cult status, started getting traction on YouTube, and slowly gained a fair audience (but many of those sales ended up being deep discounts)...

... but...

... because it never was a breakout hit -- either initially or with the Dark Arisen release -- Capcom has been very, very wary of a making a new release for the West. It didn't even bring Dragon's Dogma Online West.
Two questions
Whats the likelihood the 2nd game will appear on GOG at some point ? (im sceptical it will come day one)

Whats the deal with the latest patch people are mentioning? Does it fix any major bugs or add anything important to the existing game?

Apparently the latest patch fixes two bugs and apparently there is a Nexus mods patch that updates the GOG version. Not ideal but its not like we are devoid of options.

Honestly dont know the likelihood of the 2nd game coming here but Im not getting my hopes up. GOG doesnt have many AAA games and the games it does have are quite old and not continued by the respective developers. We have Fallout 3 and New Vegas but not 4, Horizon Zero Dawn but no sequel or other Playstation Studio games, Psychonauts but no 2, etc.

Psychonauts 2 is here: https://www.gog.com/game/psychonauts_2

As of now there's no PC version of Horizon Forbidden West anywhere, though it's true that HZD doesn't seem to have heralded any other incoming Sony-published games.

I was wrong there. Well no Dead Space 2, Dragon Age 2, Just Cause 3 or 4, Crysis 2 or 3.

We do get some support like the Bioshock collection, Darksiders, and recently got 1 of the modern Tomb Raider (and hopefully rise and shadow will follow), and alot of entries from Ys but we cant say for sure. Depends on the developer. I would like to see playstation PC games come to GOG though, especially since they are DRM-free on Epic anyway.
