Dragon's Dogma 2 Players Unite Against Dragonsplague

Dragon's Dogma 2 features a divisive element called Dragonsplague, a pawn-infecting sickness that can lead AI companions to commit murder. Modders have now developed mods to make the plague easier to track or remove it entirely from the game, offering options such as a counter to indicate infection levels and ways to cure or prevent the sickness. While some argue that dealing with Dragonsplague is part of the game's intended challenge, these mods provide an alternative for players who prefer to avoid the risk altogether.
