Dragon Prana

With Dragon Sinker, I was immediately pulled in by the charming characters, and creative, addictive game modes. I binge-played it. Loved every second from beginning to end. I'll still be returning for the after game content, but it was such a pleasure, that I had to see what the other two titles in the series had to offer. Dragon Lapis was again, love at first sight. Bigger and more of everything. The delightful dialogue was more prolific, the world was bigger, as were the heroes, and eventually riding a dragon across the skies was a magnificent addition. Gone was team building, but I didn't mind as the job plates made for intricate character customization. The handling of those job plates however, is one of the game's low points. As is an overly long final dungeon. Still, an addicting and enthralling game experience, that I was compelled to finish in anticipation of the third game in the series. And again, I look forward to delving into Lapis' after game content. Dragon Prana hasn't hooked me from the start, as the first two titles had. It's clear that it's attempting a 16 bit entry, as the other two could be considered 8 bit. There's a lot more story building, maybe too much. And I don't feel drawn to the main character or his companions. Game systems and reward systems are needlessly expounded upon. Maps seem rather small and simplistic in comparison to the earlier titles. The charm and whimsical dialogue is in short order here. It's a technically solid entry, but a disappointing sequel to a series that started off as something so special.

This game has some pretty cool RPG systems. Leveling up the various job classes is fun, and each job unlocks a different special ability on each of the characters. I also like that every character has their own tree of passive upgrades. The equipment upgrading system is sort of interesting, and grid-based battles are cool. That being said, all of these systems seem like overkill in what is a very simple RPG. Progression through the game doesn't involve much exploration, and the dungeons are short. The plot is very generic, and the characters talk slightly too much. Nonetheless, Dragon Prana is a pretty fun game. However, don't use the special currency store or the game becomes way too easy.

見た目通りのオーソドックスなRPG。 ストーリーはシンプルだが悪くはない。 ゲームバランスはだいぶ大味で、適当にやっても何とかなってしまう。 目新しさはないがテンポよく進められる。おすすめしないというほどでもないという感じ。 11時間で実績コンプ。唯一面倒だったのがサブクエストで、発生場所・タイミングが分からないのでラスボスを倒した後に町・村をめぐってひたすら探した。建物の中も見ないといけない。

a tried/true kemco rpg formula. some of the mechanics like weapon leveling has improved but it's starting to feel like i've played these games before.

　「こういうのでいいんだよ」とか説明にならない説明で語られがちなケムコのRPG。 　難易度ハードでトロコンしたのでレビュー。 　遅めのプレースタイルなので、20時間以上かかったが、難易度下げれば、もっと早くなると思う。 　大作RPGは気後れするけど、サクッとRPGしたい社会人向けです。 〇よかったところ。 　ストーリーは、「魔王倒せ」という直球勝負の内容。 　だが、過去のエルフの失敗のせいで、現在の当事者たちが迷惑するとか、エルフ、ドワーフが仲が悪いとか、エルフが高慢とか、ドワーフが戦争バカとか、直球すぎて誰もやらないネタをストーリーに組み込まれているのが、逆に独創的かも。 　色々アリガチ展開は多かったけど、楽しいからアリがちになるわけで、個人的には、キリル文字のイニシャルのエピソードが、良かった。 　バトル面では、戦闘終了時にHP全回復が楽、かつ適度な緊張感があって良かった。 〇わるいところ 　特にない。 　難易度ハード固定だったが、魔法系の職業4人の構成でも、雑魚戦でたまにやられる程度なので、戦闘バランスは、大味だと思った。高難度を求めない限り問題ないと思うが。 　また、成長ボードのネタが切れると能力値成長がなくなります。ネタがなくなる前に、クリアできるので、問題ないが。 〇最後に 　量産RPGとか、言われてるけど、作り続けてくれるのはありがたいです。応援してます。
