I heard that this game is just blatantly unfinished, but it still like one of the most amazing things at the same time. From playing it, yeah I can see it. The story feels like they couldn't do what they wanted, but still did it all, so parts just feel missing. The world map is pretty cool, but so much of it is just isn't used or nothing points you there.
What makes it so cool though is the classes and their skills are super neat. I only found the archer classes to be the fun ones however, but they are still way funner than many other games. It kind of feels like Itsuno played a ranger class in DnD and just wanted to make that the super good class.
The pawn system has so much depth too which is really cool.
I can really see this game being forged in the diamond it deserves to be, really hope Dragon's Dogma 2 gets ALL the time it needs.
