It’s been a wild time for RPG players, especially with the release of Baldur’s Gate 3 in 2023, with so much to look ahead.
Dragon’s Dogma 2 has been on players’ radars for quite some time, and like any mega RPG, fans are wondering the important questions.
Is there romance?
Dragon’s Dogma 2 Romance: Is There Relationships?
Dragon’s Dogma 2 is set to be one of the big hits for the first half of 2024, and the title is a RPG fan’s dream title, it appears. Similar notes to Baldur’s Gate 3 throughout the trailers we’ve seen thus far, but the aspects that strike the most is the character’s within the world.
In terms of a relationship system, this has been a highly asked question in the leadup to the release, and it appears that yes, there will be some sort of relationship/romance system in-game.
This was more or less confirmed in an interview with IGN, where Game Director Hideko Itsuno noted the following.
This game features affinity and relationships between NPCs as well. For example, if you find a pair of friends, hitting one will cause the other to get mad at you too. Or if you do something nice for the child, the parent might thank you and like you more as well
That’s what I mean by relationships between NPCs. NPCs also have a level of affinity for the player. It’s not very realistic for two NPCs to get along with each other if they both like the same person, right
While this isn’t a yes or no, this leans towards the yes side of having romance within Dragon’s Dogma 2, so we’ll find out very soon.
