Talk:Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen/@comment-204.250.119.254-20130425184626

Dark Arisen has been a huge surprise to me. A huge and very pleasant surprise. Now I understand why it's called an expansion rather than DLC. It's basically a separate game. Not just a separate, self-contained area, but they developed it as a completely different type of game. It feels like an extreme version of the ultimate Darksiders' dungeon -- like what Darksiders could have been if From Software (the people behind Dark Souls) had developed it.

As if this game needed more replay value I can now go from the open world exploration of the main game to the chamber battles and Ur Dragon of the Everfall to the Dungeon crawling (and key-finding) of Bitterblack. It's been worth every penny I payed and more.
