Dragon's Dogma has shipped one million copies worldwide, Capcom Japan has announced.
The action role-playing game is the 55th title belonging to Capcom that has reached the one million shipped milestone. Although specific figures weren't given, the publisher said Dragon’s Dogma set a first-week sales record within Japan pertaining to the best-selling new IP launch in the past decade.
Due to the game's commercial success, Capcom said the title will spawn sequels with the publisher envisioning Dragon's Dogma as a large franchise. Hopefully without that pesky on-disc DLC.
We certainly support the idea of turning Dragon's Dogma into a series, assuming Capcom fixes some glaring issues from the first game -- but we liked it overall.

The game has nice ideas but it's flawed, hopefully the sequels build on the good and irons out the wrinkles.
I don't like the wording they used when they mentioned they were not going to do on-disk DLC in the future. To me, it just sounded like they were going to make it so you had to actually download the content they would have put on the disc. So not an improvement at all ~_~
Seemed a bit like I was getting scammed though. Like, I'm pretty damn sure they had intentions to make things better from the start, and didn't.
I suppose I'll be happy with a sequel just as long as it doesn't end up being a re-make of the same game with added tidbits (Dead Rising: Off the Record...).
And for co-op, what I think would be an exceptional way to execute it is for every person that joins your game, 1 pawn is taken out, allowing 4-player co-op while each person retains their own character/level. And they in all make progress towards the host's game. Each player can still rank up on his own accord, in game terms this would be the arisen traveling to different "realms". I'm too lazy to explain how and why it'd work story wise, but then again it can't be that hard coming up with an explanation.
And fast travel can stay as is, it makes getting to a high/rich level means just that much more.
Anyways, those are my ideas..
