Dragon's Dogma 2 Modding Sparks Debate Over Dragonsplague Mechanic

New mods allow players to track and manage Dragonsplague, leading to discussions on game design and player autonomy.

Modders have developed solutions for Dragon's Dogma 2's controversial Dragonsplague, including a mod that displays infection levels.
The Dragonsplague Counter mod shows a red number on infected Pawns' heads, indicating the stage of infection, with eyes glowing red at level 7.
Some players and critics argue that these mods detract from the game's intended experience, emphasizing the tension and uncertainty Dragonsplague adds.
Others view the mods as necessary for accessibility and managing the mechanic's impact on gameplay.
The debate continues over the balance between game design integrity and player control through modding.
