Dragon’s Dogma 2 meat fest! Hot meat ranked from worst to best! Your doctor hates it…

Ranking all the live action cooking scenes in Dragon Dogma 2, because they’re wonderful.

There’s a lot to love about Dragon’s Dogma 2 , obviously. The game is a cut above a lot of other games we’ve seen come out in recent months (yeah I’m including Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth too), and we reckon it’s due to some truly unique quirks and charming little features you can find sprinkled all over Capcom’s latest action RPG. You want an example? For my money, you’ve got to love the live action cooking scenes.

That’s why I was pleasantly surprised when the good folks over at Eurogamer ranked each of the cooking cutscenes in order of worst to best, which you can watch in the video above! Not only is it packed full of meat puns (as you’d expect), but it’ll also help you get a troublesome achievement / trophy if you follow it along yourself.

Obviously the rotten meat goes at the bottom but you may be surprised which ranks near the top. This reminds me of a university story. Did you know one of my old flat mates once ate undercooked sausages in front of four people, and pretended they were cooked? We were making fun of him not being able to cook sausages properly, and instead of admiting he couldn’t even over-cook food, he forced his way through three raw sausages to prove a point. He was later ill, obviously. He didn’t even get a trophy for it - he flunked out of third year I think. £25,000 down and no trophy…

Another Next Fest kicks off soon, but we’ve already done the digging for you.

Welcome to Wishlisted, a showcase of our favourite demos from Steam Next Fest: June 2024. Check the video above or watch on YouTube .

Finding the Best NextFest Demos is all about the joy of discovery, but with so many Steam Next Fest demos getting released in such a short amount of time, it can be bewildering. So we’ve decided to show you our ten Best Steam Next Fest games which we think deserve your attention. These are all upcoming Steam Next Fest games that we’re genuinely excited for, and that we think should play nicely on PC handhelds too!

This is just the start of our Next Fest coverage. This week we’ll be previewing loads of upcoming demos across the entire network - right here on VG247, of course, but also over on our sister sites Eurogamer and Rock Paper Shotgun. Bookmark our Wishlisted Steam Fest hub to stay in the loop.
