Dragon’s Dogma 2 is full of fake characters, forged items, and even a combat class designed around trickery. This obsession with deceit infuses the game’s tone with a more engaging experience.
When you boot up Dragon’s Dogma 2, you get all the standard boilerplate warnings, a Capcom logo, and then the game’s title screen. Except it’s technically not the game’s name, because it’s missing a 2.
Do video game follow-ups sometimes ditch the numeral? Sure, that’s why we need to specify which God of War we’re talking about. It’s a ploy that ensures you satisfy long time fans with a new game without scaring away new comers. It can also signify that a game is more of a remake or reinterpretation.
Except none of that really tracks for Dragon’s Dogma 2, because that’s the name of the game! It’s just strangely missing the 2 on the title screen.
