History YMMV / DragonsDogma

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: The theme that plays whenever you fell a large and powerful beast such as a Chimera or Cyclops makes it feel like you won a war.

** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIQ7Sl16lWE Selection of Fate]], the final boss theme.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQtVsO6jFyg And finally, Eternal Return]], the magnificent ending theme to the game. For a bonus, also sung by [[HeyItsThatVoice the same woman]] who did [[DragonAge Leliana's song.]]

** However, it seems that while it wasn't an immediate hit in American, the game has been selling steadily since release thanks to a lot of praise of word of mouth.

* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: Sort of; the game was specifically designed to sell to the American market, specifically the crowd that couldn't get enough of ''Skyrim'' and ''TheWitcher 2'', but bombed badly (100,000 units, a far cry from the 1.5 to ''[[BeyondTheImpossible 10]]'' million Capcom was expecting) because Capcom released it at the same time as other more highly anticipated games. In Japan, however, the game has sold nearly 500,000 copies, likely because the audience there is treating it as a stopgap for ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter 4''.

* DemonicSpiders: Hellhounds are probably the worst offender. While you only encounter them post-game, they will easily be one of your most hated enemies. They don't stagger easily, don't sit still and they have a long range, fire attack that knocks you to the ground. But that's not all, they'll grab you and drag you someplace far off. If you are near a cliff, most likely they'll throw you off it. If the cliff is too high up, this is a one hit kill.

* RuinedForever: There was revealed to be a ton of on Disc DLC for the game. [[InternetBackdraft Some people that heard this were ''NOT'' pleased at all.]]

** A Mystic Knight with Ruinous Sigil and Great Cannon is basically a machine gun nest that automatically blasts you apart if you step too close.

* GameBreaker: The Mystic Knight at higher levels, to some degree. He can pack swords, maces, and wands; he's got a magic shield that lets him enchant the whole party's weapons; and he can unlock support buffs as well.

** Wands are useful, especially for wolves. Direwolves and hellhounds are another matter.

* CompleteMonster: Elysion, full stop. To put in perspective, [[spoiler: he's not above sacrificing innocents, along with his own followers, to get what he wants.]] Even The Dragon himself seems to be disgusted about what he does.

* UnfortunateImplications: Due to the affinity system, anyone can be captured by the dragon, including children. [[spoiler: You may find it awkward when your Arisen makes out with [[{{Lolicon}} Symone.]]]]
