If I could have your attention for one minute I want to talk about an upcoming game I’m REALLY excited about
It’s called Draconia and it’s an open-world survival sandbox RPG game where you play as a dragon.
If you’re like me you probably love video games and such that feature dragons BUT get frustrated that often the focus is on slaying dragons, or on human political intrigue, or some other non-dragon nonsense. Have no fear. Draconia is going to give us everything we crave.
It looks SUPER pretty
Choose one of several dragons, hunt to feed yourself, find water sources to drink from and develop your character through various tasks and events.
Draconia features:
Character Customization: Give your character a custom name, change its pattern, colors and body parts, such as horns or tail tips or choose from pre-made textures.
Character Leveling: Complete tasks, quests and events to level your character and make it stronger. Spend talent points to increase your dragon’s traits.
Optional PvP: Play on servers without being afraid of being attacked by other players. Simply disable PvP in your character profile and enable it if you want to have a battle with someone else.
Group and Clan System: Go on your journey and bring your friends with you by inviting them to your group or creating your own clan, which allows you to announce events and keep track of your members progress.
Create useful items: Build a hoard to hide all your treasures in, create objects which improve your dragons stats or add temporary buffs.
Nesting: Build and defend a nest and raise your own dragon hatchling.
Questing: Find and complete several one-time and repeatable quests.
Interactive Environment: Interact with several objects in your environment to gain useful buffs or uncover more parts of the story.
Dragon Dens: Earn yourself a place you can call home. Unlock and upgrade your own den to live a more comfortable dragon life.
It will have a single-player offline mode and an online mode where you can interact with others, either with or without PVP.
Your character is customizeable and if they meet their stretch goals, new players could even start out as hatchlings. If you pledge enough money on their crowdfunding campaign, you can get custom decorations, items, even another species!
You will be able to play as many different species, 6 species of dragon and various smaller wildlife. Another stretch goal is to build a humanoid species that has mechanics for farming and dragon breeding and riding.
Draconia is currently trying to fund its project through Indiegogo. (Link) They are not offering exclusive content as a play-to-win system and nothing will be behind a paywall.
This game looks extremely beautiful, well thought out, and fun to play. The creators clearly care a lot about this and have put their heart and souls into it. I want to see this happen. It will be released on Steam. If this seems like something you would like to play or exist, please consider contributing to their Indiegogo or Patreon, or reblogging this to get the word out! Thanks :)
IVE LITERALLY WANTED A GAME LIKE THIS MY ENTIRE,LIFE ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. ISTARIA IS LIKE THE ONLY OTHER GAME THAT HAS PLAYABLE DRAGONS BUT THEY WERE BEHIND A PAYWALL
PLEASE support this game, they have great devs that have shown a lot of promise.
On a similar note do NOT support a similar-looking game scam called Day of Dragons, which notoriously got over $500,000 from a fundraiser (that Draconia deserves instead) and has some of the shittiest, scammiest dev practices I’ve ever seen
