Sorry if repost. I have been working on my computer all day and haven't paid much attention to this site at all today. I just signed into Amazon to get a part for my computer and it was in my recomended. I think PS3 is sold out on Best Buy and Amazon is $21 instead of $19. Don't know if this is a price drop or just a sale but either way have at it.

Does this game get any better after you leave the initial village? Because I played for a couple hours and was left thoroughly unimpressed. Maybe I was expecting a Dragon Age killer and that was unrealistic.

I've been playing this game non-stop for the past month. It's a lot different than Dragon Age, however, It's not a dialogue driven at all really. It's more of an action RPG with a basic story thrown over the top of it. The Dark Arisen expansion reminds me of Dark Souls but you aren't playing solo since you can have 4 in your party. If you enjoy games where your running around in an open world and completing quests, getting tons of loot to use/manage, and leveling up/gaining new skills, you'll like it. It's not for everyone, but it's the type of game i've always liked personally.

I suppose I'll pick it back up and try it again later on. I have such a backlog that once I try something and it doesn't grab me right away, I just move on to the next game in the stack.

 
I don't think me giving it GOTY gives them enough leeway to make a GOTY edition.

It's the original game with more stuff that you can't get as DLC.

 
Fuuuuu. I want this so bad and with 20% off its so tempting, but with my huge backlog I will have to wait until it's $14.99 before I can purchase it. thank you OP for this though. great deal.

Dark Arisen includes the original Dragon's Dogma, plus some improvements, both graphically and otherwise. It also includes an expansion - an extra area to explore with strong monsters - recommended for when you complete the main game. It is all on a single disc, I believe.

For achievement / trophy hunters - Dark Arisen shares the same list as Dragon's Dogma vanilla, so either version gets you the same points.

Dark Arisen is basically a huge addon island with a separate storyline, new monsters, items, etc.. You can play it at anytime during the regular game, but you won't get far until you're a pretty high level. I'd recommend beating the base game before attempting it. That alone is going to take you 40 hours probably, so for $20 bucks you can't really go wrong here unless you end up not liking the game.
