A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen. Finally completed the base game after falling off from the tediousness. I really hope the sequel addresses that issue because otherwise, it has fantastic combat in a world with mythical creatures.
I have it in my library. Any tips for a beginner? Anything to watch out for?

Jokes aside I will say your main pawn learns by watching what you do, so it helps to have a general idea what type of character you want to play as and preferably have your pawn have similar playstyle.
It does help with their AI and also when at bars telling them to keep quiet does help your sanity.
Be careful about pawn commands, it has an effect on pawn ai playstyle weighting.
Pawns learn to fight enemies better based off a series of "weak points" that they learn by either fighting, hitting an enemy with an element weakness or hiting a enemy on a weak spot - example cutting off a chimera tail or blinding a cyclops.
And destoying weakpoints is also an way to get rare ingredients, like cyclops tusks from destoying the cyclop's tusks sticking out their mouths.
