Ugly and overly complex for what little actions you can perform. Sticking with the aesthetics for the moment, a quick mention of the user interface. The voice acting is mostly good, everything else was typically generic fantasy fare. In terms of the audio, I have no strong feelings towards the sound and music either way. The environments look decent, at least, and are often dense, tightly packed areas full of places to explore. Whilst the character art that displays during conversations is very well-drawn, the 3D models - although certainly unique - aren’t what you would usually see in this modern era of videogaming. Natiq, the adorable self-proclaimed “battle pangolin”, is perhaps the one saving grace, as his cutesy quips and comments during the adventure gave a little more life to the goings-on, especially when our main character is a silent protagonist.ĭespite The Dragoness only releasing on PC just under a year ago, graphically, it feels like it’s come straight from the late 2000s. It’s a shame the story doesn’t live up to its potential, as the characters are mostly forgettable - albeit voiced rather well - and the lore surrounding the world isn’t nearly as fleshed out as it could have been for such a magical realm. From here, the main objective of the game is to rebuild the ruin of Níwenborh to its former glory, which will then aid in the fight to restore peace to the world. The story doesn’t end there (shocking, I know) and instead sees our protagonist revived by the Queen - who just so happens to be a dragon, by the way - although they are sapped of their powers and corporeal form. At the start of the journey, the Commander is on their way to meet the Queen of the nearby city of Níwenborh when they are killed by a mysterious dragon. You play as the Commander, a nameless hero who has control over a squad of monsters who fight in their stead.
