Capcom's Dragon's Dogma 2 has faced performance issues on PS5 and PC, with Digital Foundry urging improvements. Despite this, the game has become Capcom's top-selling single-player title on Steam, attracting over 224,000 concurrent players. Players have expressed mixed reactions to the game's graphics and mechanics, with some praising its medieval world's authenticity. The game's director had wanted to introduce the Dragonsplague mechanic a decade ago but faced technical constraints. Following player backlash, Capcom has announced updates to address performance concerns, including a new game save option and a 30fps cap on consoles. Modders have also provided free alternatives to controversial microtransactions. Additionally, players have discovered hidden features like trebuchets and secret areas, enhancing the gameplay experience.
