Divinity: Dragon Commander

Dragon Commander is a boring RTS with excellent story and worldbuilding, which is standard for Larian. Get it during a sale for 5$

拉瑞安的作品，质量有保障。不过师父，结局的时候您一定被降智打击了吧。虽然我理解这是《神界》系列时间点最早的作品，所以主角的这些黑科技肯定要失传，可游戏里失传的理由也太……

This game has the most annoying, 2D, poorly written characters I have EVER seen in a video game. The story is bland, the characters aggravating, the choices are either meaningless or stupid (It's either full in favor of something or fully against, there's no mild or reasonable way to solve a dispute), the political issues are about everything expect the issues the populate feel during a real war, and the actual game play has little to no strategic value whatsoever. I really wanted to like this game, but I just can't.

I decided to explore the lore and play Divine's games in chronological order. This game is the first, set almost 9,000 years before the events of Original Sin. It turned out to be a surprisingly enjoyable game, not too long, and I had a good time.

+Sheer ambition of packing turn-based grand strategy, real-time battles, technological research mechanics, political-sim decision making, marriage mechanic and RPG-esque dragon fighting is admirable +Campaign's role-playing elements are real highlight, with both political and personal choices carrying real consequences +It has bright and engaging style, both in graphics and writing, great sense of humour and memorable voice acting -RTS battles that were supposed core of the game are it's weakest link, repetitive and shallow -Once the campaign is over, there is little sense of doing anything -Most characters are pretty shallow cliches without memorable personalities. Overall 6/10. It's Larian's most experimental title, innovative concept but execution shows lack of experience in strategy genre. It's hard to not admire the audacity of steampunk political strategy game where you can marry a skeleton and turn into jetpacked dragon, worldbuilding and writing shine but are undercut by shallow strategy mechanics and boring gameplay.

Extremely well-made game, easy to jump into and handle. Therefore, you can focus on the action and having fun. The game is beautifully designed, full of eye-candy and myriad of colorful characters. The game it saturated with strong characters, fun story, and humor. The only downside is the story is too integrated into a game like this. How so? Well, while you fly around and oversee a war, how it progresses is all "mission-based"/"story-based"-like. Everything implemented here lays the groundwork for a potential tactical/warfare-type game but instead it's too rooted in a story. Therefore, it's akin to reading a book. Now that it's over, you know what happens, are you going to pick it right back up and read it all over again? No, you're going to go play something else and came back to this game after a year or years go by. The game is also very short. Aside from all that, there is a skirmish mode and multiplayer. Overall, it's a fun game to dive into but replayability is meh so you might want to wait for it to be on sale.

Interesting story, beautiful visuals, overall high quality game. Too bad the combat mechanics and RTS elements are so BAD, I've seen and played other games with better performance than what I had to deal with in this. A 2 hours disappointment, Uninstalling and forgetting.
