Dragonkin: The Banished

6/5

For years, been trying to find a replacement for Titan Quest 1 (so far, unsuccessful). Dragonkin is alright, but there's many important dynamics that fall apart quickly. For starters, the tutorial is the level above worthless and MANY, many features I have no frickin clue what they do--even though I've got the tutorial. Furthermore, there's an explosion of feats (lvl 1 - 6) that I have no clue how to activate, access, etc. At this point, Dragonkin is just a slow, drawn-out action rpg that's "just meh," or at least if i can figure out how to understand all the skill vomit thrown at me, perhaps it'll improve, or maybe, i'll even like it. Town is huge and devs think its funny for you to travel slow AF. You have a dash (6-sec recharge), BUT can't use it infinitely in town. Again, devs think its funny to waste everyone's time, i.e., penalizing you for playing their game. There's other things that are strange: for example, I'm playing the ice giant with an ice wyvern and my attacks do poison. None of my skills do poison, nor my gear equipped. Is this a bug, is ice DoT dmg icon'd green? Idk and I bet the lazy@ss devs don't know either. I rate Dragonkin as a thumbs down because I don't know what I'm doing other than following the storyline, the skills feats are confusing AF, the game is supereasy because when aggro'd near death, you just run to the perimeter (even in boss fights) to heal with your INFINITE POTION, then leap back into action (potion kiting). I haven't given up on the game, but so far it's pretty boring.

I'm pretty Meh about this one.

I am really enjoying the game so far but need to set expectations. The game crashes all the time. I just defeated a boss was getting loot from the chest and the game crashed. Went back in and boss was defeated but no chest. So I lost the rewards. Having said this, I am still really enjoying playing the game. As long as you appreciate that the game is gonna crash and you can get over that, you are gonna lose loot, but there is a lot of loot, if you have got this far, you'll probably enjoy it! Pick it up in a sale, use the 2 hour return for if the crashing is too much for you! It is really fun!

Ce jeu est moyen, vraiment, à tous les niveaux. Rien n'est vraiment mauvais, mais tout laisse une impression de déjà vu, déjà fait, déjà entendu... L'histoire est archi convenue, tissu de fil blanc ultra prévisible, il n'y a aucune surprise à aucun moment. Les animations sont parfois, voire même souvent du niveau d'une PlayStation 2, c'est rigide, c'est mal animé, c'est même carrément risible par moment. Le lypsinc est inexistant, les dialogues sont sans âme, les acteurs n'ont mis aucune émotion dans leurs voix, chacun a enregistré dans son coin et cela se ressent, c'est mauvais, très mauvais, même en VO... Le EndGame est rébarbatif, ultra convenu et déjà vu et revu... C'est vraiment dommage, car à côté de cela il y a de bonnes choses, le jeu est plutôt beau! L'idée de base est intéressante, mais au final tout reste moyen.

A perfect alternative to Diablo 4 and PoE 2 from a veteran indie studio :)

屎一样的剧情，又臭又长又重复，要么圈里打几百只怪，要么守个npc守几分钟，有这心思在玩法上多想想。
