They were thinking, "Look at what customers constantly put up with from Blizzard and Ubisoft. Our core gameplay is fun and people have FOMO, so let's be similarly shitty."

Capcom is back!
In all honesty, this might be the end of Dragons Dogma if they don't turn it around. The first game was a commercial flop even if it is a cult classic now, the MMO crashed and burned and now they ruined a good sequel for no reason.
I just don't see how execs will greenlight another one if this isn't a success.
The game will likely be a moderate success provided they can fix the performance problems.
Most players (unfortunately) do not care about having microtransactions in a full priced video games or about things like Denuvo. This is party the reason why the triple-a game industry is in such sorry state at the moment.
Also I find it funny that you're already worrying about sequels when the newest game has not been out for even a day.

This makes me afraid for Monster Hunter Wilds. That is my favorite series and the only game I still play online.

I love the first one, janky stuff but mostly great, so when i heard this game is being made, i was ecstatic about it until i learned the game is $70 with no localised price, at that moment i'm guessing the greedy capcom is really back, because their game used to be fairly priced up until MHW. And then this happened.
Money. They were thinking money.
