So this is why I began review bombing Dragons Dogma 2. I was doing a quest with an extremely unclear objective and I thought maybe killing a certain snarky NPC would progress it. So I carefully saved before attacking the npc. Killing the npc didn't work so I tried to reload my file, only to find the game autosaved the second I killed the npc. The game only allows two saves, one you kinda control that gets autosaved over A LOT, and one from when you last rested in an inn. Resting at an inn is somewhat expensive and just worse than camping overall, so I hadn't used an inn within the last 8 hours of play.
I distinctly got the vibe that it was designed that way on purpose. You can revive NPCs, but the item to do so is rare and limited unless you pay real money. A lot of the quests seem designed to encourage mistakes that will make you consider giving them more money in order to fix. Its like an MBA came by at the end and editted everything in game to make it as sleazy as possible. The saddest part is that if they took that aspect away and added some small bug fixes, it would legitimately be a 10/10 game.
Leaving a honest, negative review is not review bombing btw
I know, but it feels like review bombing when you type one out on every platform you can find in a few hours in a fit of rage and disappointment. I feel swindled to such an extent that Capcom is now equal to EA in my mind. I had bought at least one Capcom game a year for the last three decades and now they won't get another cent from me.
