Divinity: Dragon Commander

This is a very fun RPG masquerading as an RTS. the RTS part is weak if you want an RTS play another game. The character dialogue on your ship is where its at, their funny engaging, well rounded characters, who rif on 2000s bush era American politics. their personal stories are surprisingly impactful in the end leaving them as changed people depending on the choice you make. I do enjoy the risk like global map war, and usually spend most of my time making armies and moving them around pretending like moving a plastic game pieces around a fantasy map makes me Ulysses Grant or something. playing as a dragon in game is ok i guess the dragon form is very powerful and can turn the tide of hopeless battles sometimes, but is more of a gimmick then anything really. If you like RPGs, character driven games this is great and well up to Larian standards. I do recommend it its very well written and fun to play.

it is alright

I was conflicted on the review for this game, but I think I have to ultimately thumbs it down. I had fun, but it quickly becomes tedious, and the more research you go down it changes from a Unit Macro based RTS to a Micro ability based RTS which doesn't feel good honestly. A lot of the research becomes shallow after Act 1 and less meaningful and then they ramp up difficulty in Act 3 to add more superficial meaning to the Research The first Act was fun, though dragged on a bit The Second Act should have been fun with the multiple Nations but almost every Nation just turtled in their capital, I think I beat Act 2 faster than Act 1 Then theres Act 3. and I think this is why I ultimately have to thumbs it down, suddenly the AI spikes and actually tries to retaliate on the world map, and it felt jarring because in the previous 2 Acts it was so passive. Then when you get into the RTS mode the AI activates every ability on every unit immediately and just created an difficulty spike experience that wasn't enjoyable to me and didn't really have an organic difficulty learning curve. I loved the politics and little Narrative nuggets and then the choices you can make that affect your wife were super cool but the moment I didn't support my wife in her goals she immediately stopped having new dialogue options, which turns into my point of why I think I have to ultimately thumbs this game down, It tried doing too much which lead to some really cool features being more shallow. Examples, The Wife, Politics, The Politic opinion influence the lands you are on, No real benefits for agreeing with a Race or Racial benefits (I wanted Undead units :( ) - The Politic opinion influence the lands you are on: This lead to my frustration in the end during Act 3 because my Capital was Elves territory and I had been disagreeing with the Elves up to this point, but this never was an issue in the past because my capital were other races up to this point and it changed I believe with each Act, not sure why the capital isn't reflected with your most agreeable Race so this ultimately was a punishment from an unforeseeable choice I had no control over in Act 3 that felt I was getting punished for playing the game I thought I was suppose to be playing instead of trying to make everyone balanced.

Trochę krótka i prosta. Na koniec rozdziału wystarczy poczekać parę tur żeby w następnym wystartować z dużą liczbą kart, pieniędzy i punktów nauki. I słabe SI dowodzonych jednostek. Poza tym fajna zabawa smokiem i ciekawa zabawa RTS.

Certified good game for Bad Dragon Commander enjoyers

A unique and fun RPG-Strategy that keeps you coming back for more.

Gameplay is a little basic but the overall loop is fun. Story choices actually feel like they have impact, even if only to a small degree. The stories themselves are interesting and give you the impression of something an actual aspiring monarch would have to put up with.
