Dragon's Dogma 2 is lying to you

- Why isn't Dragon's Dogma 2 called... Dragon's Dogma 2? The missing "two" on the title screen is just the first of many ways that Capcom's fantasy RPG is girlbossing, gaslighting and gatekeeping you from the truth. What looks like a generic, Ren Faire-esque roleplaying game is much trickier underneath the surface.

I, for one, would not even THINK of commenting something like "Clayton is a fake gamer" under this video.
I'm glad you said it, because commenting something like that or "Clayton's never played a video game" would be SERIOUSLY inconsiderate.
@@zackmcqueen4802It would be EXTREMELY uncool.
I think Clayton is lying and he _has_ finished Dragon's Dogma.
Dragon's Dogma, or Dragon's Dogma 2, you ask?
Yes.

So you know how the pawns basically kinda know they're in a game. When you play the game again your pawn says "I knew you loved this world too much to leave it behind"
Nah, they simply say that because of the whole dimension changing you do when confronting the Watching One, and they know that. Nice try though
@@leoleo1035 I understood nothing you just said. Nice try though.
@@leoleo1035was that even English kid? Tf outta here with that illiterate ahh sentence
I think he's saying it's not that they know they're in a game, they just recognize that you, as the arisen, essentially reset the cycle and created a new iteration of the same world. It's a nod from the pawn that they remember your adventure with them, and a nod from the developers that you're enjoying the game enough to play ng+. Kinda makes you wonder if you just screwed up the whole point of the game lowkey lol.
Though the "nice try though" thing seemed a little... uncalled for on his part though?
@@Tmangman1 Yes true. This is basically what I meant. I don't exactly believe they know they are in a video game. But they are aware and break the fourth wall in a sense.

You really put those words together in that order. Good on you.
With the isekai theory, can we take a second to consider that Dragon's Dogma Online had an Overlord anime crossover before the servers went off line? Just saying.

Clayton's not a fake gamer....unless I'm lying?
The real goal of dragon's dogma is to hunt for the missing 2
It's actually not missing, you get the real Dragon's Dogma 2 title card scene when you reach the true ending which brings you into the special endgame mode, though for anyone playing the game completely spoiler free it's quite likely they would never even find that ending.
yeah i know, thats the hunt.
He's gonna freak when he sees what happens with the true ending
Can confirm. Freaked out when I saw
Minor Spoilers about the title screen:
The title screen later changes to Dragon's Dogma 2 once you escape the narrative 'remake' of DD1, and reach a new story beyond it.
When I got that title screen I literally stood there silent for like 30 seconds.
Does it also turns into 60fps? And no more bugs?
@@OkumuraRyuk hope you get the reactions you’re searching for bro ❤️
@@jomorazero God forbid somebody be displeased with and criticise a product for its flaws
@@OkumuraRyuk how about go make a huge game world like this and we better have it running at 120fps 8k with zero bugs in it at launch, we'll be waiting.
I would love to see more videos like this. Just talking about what's interesting about what the crew has been playing, not necessarily needing to be definitive.
4:10 Dragonsplague has symptoms for anyone who wants to look them up.
You figure out the title screen if you get the true ending
I can only see two endings on my part. Fight dragon, or walk away from dragon.
Pitiable Arisen. Prove to me thine will.
Ride dragon wifu and use the Godsbane in the inventory. Prepare for the real game

@@Goofiestbloke game wouldn't let me interact with anyone
I thought my title screen glitched
AYO BUT WHAT IF YOU ARE LYING TO ME, HUH?
i am still upset they dident do a banger into like the last one
Fun fact, “Ye” is actually pronounced “The”. It’s a common mistake I see in movies and video games.
yeah, there was an actual letter for the “th” sound that looked similar to a “Y” with some lines through it… forgot it’s name, but when the printing press was invented, because that letter was so similar to, they just used a Y in its place.
…or so the tale goes. i’ve not actually looked into this for years now. memory can play tricks on you with something you learned in school 20 years ago
Finally thank you
Letter’s name was thorn en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorn_(letter)
@@RoundHouseDictator fake gamer?
@@factsoftheconfederacy7151 typed in wrong window, my bad
The map is actually a world or new cycle built upon the destroyed world from the first game Gransys, you will later realise there are places familiar from the first game
its a huge misstep they didnt bring back the original intro song from DD1..cuz this is DD1 again of course right? right???
Yeah, this DD1 with necessary filler appropriated from DD online..
But the price are rather steep..
MK is gone, MA got nerfed not only got dual daggers taken, but also delegated mostly in ranged attack and support, stryder is gone..
And along came the trickster..
It might be better should Capcom simply adopted Alchemist from DDO to fit in DD2..
I never noticed that there's no 2 in the title lmao
It's basically Dragon's Dogma - the ultimate edition. I think the devs even alluded to that - this being the fully realized version of the game.
That said it is cool to think of how 4th wall breaking it is as well ..
yet still can't run at locked 60
1:58 Gilgamesh : and I took that personally
for anyone curious and doesnt want to play the game, you unlock the Dragons Dogma 2 title card after finishing the base game and unlocking the post-game
This comment, right here.
It's not obvious to most who haven't played the first game, but I'm not going to spoil that for you guys
Finding out what the Dragon wants you to do and the metaphysical implications of that action are too important to spoil
No matter if you have to repeat that part 5 times, don't look it up
The realization and subsequent changes to the world are amazing
@@PrimalDirective welp... I looked it up.
No, I'm not proud, but I hadn't even the slightest idea what to do and on the second time I was almost out of healing items XDDD
The end of the game is just the beginning of the game. This is intentional. It is afterall just a repeat of Dragon's Dogma 1 and this is told so many times during the story. "The will of the world repeats itself yada yada. UNTIL You do a certain thing after killing the dragon. Than you can choose something that will lead to the "Dragon's Dogma 2" Title screen,
Very true, I like that they added the feature of the title screen Dragon Dogma 2 at the end of the game. I kinda felt like it was a sequel inside of a sequel which sounds crazy
@@tonicxplay4885 Your Pawns will even speak to you in New Game + and New Game + is constantly labeled Dragon's Dogma 2. You have new things and Monsters in it aswell.
The game shows you the updated logo… when you earn it.
Is this video New Game Plus Plus Plus Plus?
"He slipped, you all saw that"
Hope you enjoy DD1! Its not terribly long, but you'll wish it was longer by the end for sure.
absolutely fantastic game, worth playing for sure. im on my second playthrough lmao
The eyes don't light up anymore in the O's "Dragon's Dogma" title text and the heart now and only does in "Dragon's Dogma ll".
There's even fake ferrystones.
Do they actually work though?
Are they from pawns? Those could just be the counterfeit ones players forge to entice pawn quests
It's also has an option in the photo mode to water make the picture, it says dragons dogma or dragons dogma 2 or turn it off.
Yayyy someone saying good things about the game! Knew I could rely on Clayton
In this day and age, people make things up just for something to hate on until they realize the thing they were hating on has zero impact on the game and completely optional.
@@thekxckup3854 yeah performance is completely optional the game devs felt the same way xD
@@sashalvy play the game rn and say the same exact sentence, cause clearly you haven’t played it
@@thekxckup3854 clearly the DEVS didn't play it 😭
For real though. In 66 hours and man it's tough to put this freaking game down for the day.
Perhaps one could say even the Seneschal in this game is a fake.
idk if a fake is the terms, but certainly not as a good guy as savan was.
As a veteran I can’t entire love DD2 since the potential is so painful to see. I still adore the series & both games are beautiful but unless they just held content to wait for DLC the game is an 8/10 for now
The title starts after you beat the game there’s a whole huge part after the main story
Im playing on PC and it says Dragons Dogma II, the II actually flashes up before Dragons Dogma
I like how the game feels both like it knows its a game but the characters arent phased by that either its just normal for these things
Oh you will see the 2 pop up at some point if you do things right.
I thought the dragon eyes in the two O’s were the II for Dragons Dogma II.
Nope that's in the original too
How could I possibly claim Clayton is a fake gamer for not finishing the game, when my own finishing rate is probably under half (because I buy a lot of RPGs and end up switching to the newest stuff and, uh, forgetting to go back to the ones in progress).
That's ok. You just need your hand held.
Little baby waby never finishes his games
I killed Hugo because I opened his cell and then he attacked me in my home. But after a while I found him standing outside my house.
spoiler: once you are at the endgame the title changes to Dragons Dogma 2
SPOILER : DON'T READ
In the true ending: the unmoored world, if you close your game and come back to the title screen there is a 2 under Dragons Dogma
"Paranoia but in a good way" is this like taking a high dose of edibles? 😆
Pretty sure when u beat the main story the title screen switches to dragons dogma 2, until you new game plus
i kind of figured the 2 were the 2 lines in between the O s lol
"Imitation Clayton"
Having finally gotten to the true end of DD2 I can say that this man has no idea how right he really is
During the true ending it shows dragons dogma 2 on screen it made me go crazy
There are 2 "I"s in the o's on the title in Dragons Dogma.
I hope that the escorted are not eunning in circles for no reason intentionally.
...I'm going to end up buying this game now. Dammit, Clayton!
Gameplay itself is mid and the classes themselves aren't fantastic, the AI can be pretty broken, and it's pretty repetitive... but the story is interesting and there's some cute waifu bait characters.
you should definitly buy it, it's very fun and in my opinion, money well spent
@@chrismanuel9768bro literally dragons dogma story is nothing but an endless cycle
Im not hating, the beginning of the end is also the end of the game(unless you want the true ending)
i am stuck on too quest and dont know what to do... a new godsway and where the hell is hugo
Delete the game and restart a new Skyrim playthrough problem solved
Talk to a Diviner in a main town
i hope dd3 is about the pawns and the subtitle will be Pawnworld
"Do not comment that I'm a fake gamer", is exactly the sorta thing a fake gamer would say HONHONHON
Once you reach the unmoored lands the Dragons DOgma 2 title will appear on screen.
I can confirm that guy slipped, I saw it your honor
What happened to the graphics card video
How do you know the dragon didn’t steal my heart in both ways
I have mixed bag feelings. Some aspects I had fun but it felt like more a chore than adventure. Like I loose interest and get drained trying to hike cross country. I would pass off the controller to my son and just tag in. Like at first I was oh cool then it became walk fight same enemies, run fight same enemies. I did have a strong connection to my character with being able to really make him and my main pawn my own. All in all for me a decent game but would i run it back for another play through “no”. Oh and the Sphinx was so cool and creepy, oddly attractive 😂 or im just crazy.
This is one thing I loved about dark souls. You always had to ask yourself “is this guy lying to me?” Makes the world feel more real.
E: 4:08 Dragonrot 2.0?
Who could ever possibly dream of commenting "Clayton is a fake gamer"?
the sphinx quest ..
i finished it in 73 game days on my 2nd run. 2 RL days roughly for time spent in it. first was 173 days..basically the weekend plus 1 weekday on how much i played on first playthrough....going on my 3rd now because i know there is more to discover
Is Clayton a Fey Kramer?
can confirm the 2 is not there for a reason. you're not ready
Deception Dogma Too
Clayton may not be a fake gamer, but that was clearly a fake Clayton.
Clayton really needs a better camera and lighting setup, the videos being made are all fantastic and I would love for his videos to be more visually impressive!
only thing i dont trust about dragons dogma is the forced drama twitter have with the game
I'd like to imagine that this whole video was actually written by Simone but passed onto Clayton for ~thematic reasons~
(Good video)
Ok maybe I should build a new pc to play this. Or I guess get one of the consoles since I’m very poor now and even that might be out of reach
I loved the first DD
Two Clayton vids in one week? Oh boy!
Spoiler here, read at your own risk.
Dragons Dogma has always played with the fact that there are different universes where the cycle continues to happen, but with minimal variations that cause great impact, such as Dark Arisen and Dragons Dogma Online.
Dragons Dogma 2 is another universe from Dragons Dogma 1, but it is extremely similar as we even found a "Gran Soren" submerged in the ruins of a long-forgotten civilization. And we don't need to go far, if you've played the first one a lot or recently, it's easy to notice that the structure of the story is the same, with practically the same events happening in order, showing even more the similarity of this cycle with that of the universe of first game.
The title of the game changes when making the game's true ending when we discover that in this universe we are able to eliminate God from the equation and bring to light what differentiates this universe from others, a cycle not controlled by a greater entity.
i hope he can find the true ending
I found it on accident and hot damn. The post game is a bully.
@@libralovecraft Still remember when I was playing through the post game, I died to the final enemy, *chose* not to use a Wakestone, and then proceeded to witness a screen that basically told me, "Oh, you died? Guess it's time to go back to the beginning! Of the boss? No, no, I mean the beginning of the post game silly!"
Needless to say, don't hit 'no' when the game asks you if you want to revive lmao
What really matters is that there are TWO GAMES now. Deal with it 8D
Yeah, i call the 2nd as a "non linear sequel"
I'm going to say this game is not a true sequel and it takes place in a different universe, where the events of the first game didn't happen. I do not have this game, so it's only a guess, but I am playing the first game, and I watched the video, so it's a reasonable guess.
Mine says "Dragon's Dogma II'" now. You have to figure out how to break the wheel. Otherwise you're still playing the first game.
Dragon's Ligma
Dragons Ligma Too
massively underrated comment
I love Clayton videos*. They're always entertaining and usually about a game I will never play but I don't care.
*I really love all Polygon videos.
This all really reminds me of dark souls 2
Hey bro, welcome to video gaming. I'm glad you chose Dragon's Dogma 2 as the FIRST video game you've EVER played in your life. It IS a banger, but:
You're aware ALL of video games since the DAWN of video games are all FAKE, and lying to us.... right? You're not really a SUPER HERO, or a character with GODLIKE powers, or a dude with blue overalls that can jump really really high.... yeah you're not REALLY that guy, the game is LYING to you.... you know this..... right? You're not one of 3 dudes that steal cars, shoot at innocent civilians and go on bank heists in GTA V... you know this ... right? RIGHT?!?!?!
We are all fake gamers
65 hours. Ending is fun. Solid. Waiting for dlc
Did you take LSD before playing? Everything I've seen so far makes me believe it's a pretty normal game.

dragon's dogma is an eternal loop with a dragon, a arisen and a monarch that will lose their power just like in the first game. This cycle always repeat (duh) just like the first game, but now there's a way to break this cycle and only then the new title card with the iconic dragon and the 2 appear.
if you play this game like the first one and follow "your destiny" it remains just another dragon's dogma. Only when you break the cycle that the true DD2 begins.
The 2 in Dragon's Dogma has always been there. "Lo.ok" closer. That's the only hint you get.
Lying like with that Doom gameplay back in the day
Dragon’s Dogma Tokyo Drift
So the fact that there's less enemy types in the game then first one was intentional? The fact that they introduce the queen in the story at the start and she does not have any significance and play no part what so ever to the story or plot was intentional? Hiking up the prices in this game from the first one so damn high it makes you thinks the queen married Joe Biden and that it's build back better dragon's dogma edition was intentional? This game could've been so much better but it just makes me miss the first one.
oo hoo hoo i am excited to discover the Truth
didn't know Bugenhagen watched YT.
Absolutely love dragon’s dogma 2.🥂✌🏾😎
Duplicity and reverse psychology, you want us to call you fake gamer. But at least I won't, you won't fool me real gamer!
Unnecessary. Making a pun is weak, make a pun that is also cliche is just embarrassing
*simulacra
They decided to have some fun with the writing in the main story because they know only about 5% of players will ever touch it anyways
