Players can choose their character’s gender, ethnicity (though really it appears to be nothing more than a skin tone changer, also limited to few options), their hair style (the most extensive option, given the multiple – and multi colored – hair styles available, though the color itself is pre-set to the hairstyle it comes with) and their character’s name. Players are given four races to choose from: Dragonknight (a tank style character with a berserker ability to unleash powerful attacks), Spellweaver (your typical mage with low defense), Ranger (your most balanced support character), and Steam Machina (quite literally an armored dwarf with a long range turret). With the game set to fullscreen and my eyes on my character, I truly felt like I had stepped into the forests of Duria, if only for a short time.Īdmittedly, the overall character creation options are minimal at best. From the moment the game begins, a sense of mood and world-building is set by a well-placed soundtrack combined with realistic background noises, such as croaking frogs and tweeting birds. Drakensang provides gorgeous backgrounds, and great quality graphics to follow through with the game, making it as enjoyable to look at as it is to play.

After all, nothing of that size could be that good, right? Wrong. This game takes up less than a tenth of a gigabyte of data, and takes less than five minutes to fully install – I went in expecting some generic, decent graphic work at best. Free to explore the world and take it on as they choose, this is a game which finds itself unrestricted by a singular storyline.ĭrakensang is one of those rare games where instead of grand graphics being paired with general sound, amazing music with lazy graphic work, or a general “meh” level of graphics and sound both, they bring forth both to a wonderful level. Drakensang is an online MMORPG in which players take on the role of a lone adventurer in the land of Duria.
