Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 is equipped with a system that allows your Pawn to be\u00a0hired by \u201cfake players\u201d in the absence of real people interested in giving them work. This appears to be a relief mechanic implemented by Capcom to ensure that everyone\u2019s Pawn gets some action, and players don\u2019t become short on Rift Crystals.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 inherits the Pawn system first introduced in the first Dragon\u2019s Dogma game. Aside from your Main Pawn, which you create alongside your Arisen when starting the game, you can hire other players\u2019 Pawns as support on your expeditions. If your Pawn is hired by another player, they will report on their activities after resting at an inn or at home, and it\u2019s also possible to receive gifts from other players through the borrowed Pawn. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 is strictly singleplayer (as emphasized by director Hideaki Itsuno<\/a>), the Pawn system is something that loosely connects players around the world. However, the mechanic whereby Pawns can be rented to \u201cfake players\u201d has recently become a point of discussion on the Dragon\u2019s Dogma subreddit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
