Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen PC Port Interview

PC Gamer has published an interview with a few members of the team that's working on the PC port of Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen and quizzed them about the possibility of a sequel for the title, the rationale behind Capcom's decision to bring the title to PC so late into its lifecycle, and the game's system and settings. Here's a couple of interesting snippets:

PC Gamer: Between this release and Dragon's Dogma Online, it seems like the series still means a lot to Capcom where is Capcom at in terms of considering a sequel?

Matsukawa: Thanks for your interest in the series! The Dragon's Dogma development team members often talk about the possibility of a sequel. We'd love to hear the opinions and feedback from players of the upcoming PC port of Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen, as that will increase the chances that we can look into the possibility of continuing the series.

PC Gamer: What was behind the decision to bring Dragon's Dogma to PC now? Has something changed with the PC market since release that makes this the right time?

Jon: A PC version of Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is something we had been planning for some time. We know it's been a long wait, but we've brought the right team together to create the version of Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen that our PC fans deserve.

PC Gamer: It's interesting, because recent Capcom remasters like Resident Evil made it to consoles, too but this is PC-only. Why is PC such a good match for Dragon's Dogma?

Jon: This is a game that already looks great on Xbox 360 and PS3, but increased draw distances and uncompressed textures on a powerful PC makes it look absolutely beautiful. It's also a game that includes many elements inspired by classic RPGs released on the PC. Those reasons plus the requests from our fans make this a perfect fit for a PC release.
