Dragon’s Dogma 2 simply got here out and, if ours and most reviewers on the market aren’t siding with the Arisen simply to unfold some evil anti-dragon agenda, we have now an early GOTY contender on our palms. Sadly, the star that burns the brightest can also be essentially the most CPU-hungry, which means that it could possibly trigger even folks with high-spec PCs to run into efficiency hiccups.
