BTW, I tried Dragon's Dogma yesterday at the Capcom booth at Comic Con.
It's very beautiful, and puts Skyrim to shame (IMO), but there was a ton of screen tearing. Not sure if it's because of the build or their equipment or something else, but it's very noticeable. Like 1/3 of the screen will be lagging behind frequently.
The combat is pretty boring though. An attack, a strong attack, and block. No combos I could really figure out other than a bunch of weak attacks followed by a strong. Even the grab feature was boring. It just lets you stop strafing, and focus on pressing a single button.
That being said, I'll probably buy it. It feels very much like a Baldur's Gate / Icewind Dale brought into the 2010s.
Wish the combat was done more like DMC/GoW though.
