I think it's just included in the GOTY edition or whatever it is you buy now that includes the DLCs. I'm not certain on this though. It's been a while since I played last. You may have to add it yourself.

Yeah, I saw it on Nexus mods now when I was searching for it, titled fixed version.

I mostly stick to indies or old games

Yeah I think indies are the best games to play right now with biggest variety and on some of them you can really feel that it was made with passion and love for games (like Terraria) as opposed to the supposed AAA games. I get that rare feeling when I finish them where I don't want them to finish because of how good they are.

I did play the first Dragon's Dogma and I loved it, which is why I just get sad about this game when I hear about some dumb things like complicated fast travel (unless you pay) under the guise of "the creator thinks it's not fun." Yeah get bent. I never finished the first game and I think I just might start a new game.

DD2 MTX might not be as horrible as others, but I still find it insulting. Microtransactions are there with a purpose. If it was some small indie developer I might understand, but not for Capcom, Konami, Ubisoft, Take Two or any other big publisher.
