Help Capcom Name Dragon's Dogma Characters!
The Dragon's Dogma development team is looking for help naming 300 of the game's characters. This challenge is for Capcom-Unity members. If you want to help out, head on over to Capcom's site and join the community.
Hiroyuki Kobayashi, Dragon's Dogma's producer, has detailed the challenge. Here's what he had to say:
"Hi everyone, this is Hiroyuki
Kobayashi, Producer on Dragon's Dogma. This is my first time posting on
the blog, and I have a special request for you! The Pawns, your allies
in the game, need names. I'd like to ask you to help come up with the
hundreds of names we'll be using in the game. We're looking for three
different categories of names:
Modern name (e.g. Michael, Mike, Ben, etc.)
Dragon's Dogma world reflected name (e.g. Adaro, Aelinore, etc.)
Pet names (e.g. Coco, Pooch, etc.)
Please, think hard about it and submit your best names to us. If they're good, we'll use them in Dragon's Dogma!"
In addition to these three categories, you'll only have 16 characters to work with for both first and second names. If Capcom is looking for a 301st name from an outside source, I'm hoping they consider Pipo Karcy.
