Divinity: Dragon Commander

Well, you're a half dragon/half man who has a big rocket strapped to his back and also you're general and also a king and also like the chosen one or something? Plus you have to get married (you can marry a skeleton, highly recommended) and on top of that you've got your own zeppelin with an army of steam punk walkers. There's a goblin that makes things for you and also a council with a snooty dwarf you have to appease. In the chamber under that council is a bar with a proper gentleman (lizardman with a monocle) and a blonde skeleton bartender with pumpkins to fill out her blouse. There is also a strong demonic influence you should be concerned about regarding your affairs. All in all, I liked it mostly because of the way they realistically portrayed the burden of statecraft and leadership. I mean that in all seriousness.

I like concept of this game but the actually strategy element is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ boring which is a terrible thing for an RTS. The RTS part is so bloody boring due to the A.I only having 1 strategy of sending all their forces to attack you could easily win if you just wait until they waste all their population or they're such ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ because they tech up faster than you can, leaving you in the dust. The dragon form is alright at early levels but just falls flat after like the 2nd chapter. I do like the decision choices you can do but they're all just side with 1 side or the other with no meeting in the middle.

it is fun to play as a dragon soaring through the skies while you lead armies across the heartlands letting the enemy know fear, making political decisions that greatly affect the game. talk with your generals who all have different opinions about a subject, marry a princess and help her make decisions that help your kingdom. their is so much more but it would be going into spoiler territory and I am afraid I don't have enough recruits to make it through that mess. i suggest you try it

The RTS part is a bit mid but the rest around it is pure gold.

Могла бы получиться неплохой визуальной новеллой с элементами стратегии в интересном сеттинге вселенной Divinity. Но УВЫ— получился наглядный пример того, почему жанр стратегий и RTS вымирает. Хотел пройти ради истории, но даже лёгкий уровень сложности не спасает от всей духоты.

fun

i really wish the RTS part of the game was more in depth, at least that it had more maps. Really though this game is a neat fantasy themed political RPG and a clever little satire of western politics and there are so many options. Each choice is worth its own playthough which is also neat because it walks you though cause& effect of policies all anaglous to currwnt day arguments.
