It’s really funny but it feels like the modding community of Dragon’s Dogma 2 is doing its best to make me restart it. You see, the vanilla version had awful mouse camera controls and stiff combat mechanics. So, yesterday, we got a mod that improved its mouse camera movement. And now, we have a mod that introduces a lock-on combat system.
The vanilla version of Dragon’s Dogma 2 does not feature any lock-on combat system. As such, combat can feel a bit weird, especially when you’re facing a lot of enemies. This is also due to the weird keyboard and mouse controls. But now, thanks to this mod, you can lock on to an enemy.
Once installed, you can look towards an enemy and click on the right analog stick to lock on to them. Then, you can push the stick to the left to switch to another target to the left of your current one, or to the right for one to the right. You can also push the stick up and down to change which joint on the enemy is locked onto. Yes, by default the mod is customized for gamepads. However, you can easily edit it and replace the right analog stick with the mouse.
You can go ahead and download the mod from this link. From what I know, Capcom does not plan to add a lock-on mechanic to the game. As such, I highly recommend using it.
Speaking of Dragon’s Dogma 2, I also recommend using the other mods we’ve shared for it. For instance, the Save Manager Mod is a must-have mod. This mod allows you to start a new game, create multiple characters, and have an unlimited number of save files for each character. Then we have this mod that improves the quality of Ray Tracing, and reduces its smearing side effects. Finally, we have the DLSS 3 Frame Generation Mod. This will greatly improve performance, but it will also introduce major visual artifacts (due to the awful DLSS 3 Super Resolution implementation).
Have fun and stay tuned for more!
