Dragon Champions: War RPG Game

I recently played this and genuinely I had a good time, I got tired of logging in and being hounded with packs to buy every single day. There’s certain character mechanics that are really fun to play around with. But with no real update in over a year bringing content into this game it’s just a shelf game now that I will log into one a day/ once a week/ once a month for a change of pace just waiting and hoping the devs do more with this game. We only really have three other options for this type of game since ‘LOTR Heroes of Middle Earth’ shut down, and that’s ‘Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes’ ‘marvel strike force’- which is extremely pay to play and lost its touch over the years and ‘raid shadow legends’ somewhat different than the other options but too different for me so it got dropped in less than a week of playing. I like this game and wanna see it succeed. Either bring life into the game or kill the servers

I have a personal rule when starting a game: if the game has a tutorial that takes away 100% of player choice for basic mechanics that every other game of the genre has, I quit. It’s one thing to hold your hand in a tutorial. It’s another thing entirely for the tutorial to grab you by the throat and physically drag you through the game. That’s what this tutorial felt like. Now, I’m usually kinda lenient about this rule, willing to wait a bit to see if the tutorial ends relatively quickly so I’m not completely frustrated by missing the entire first chapter of the game for the same tutorial done to death. Dragon Champions’ tutorial is not that merciful. I don’t know the story or even the mechanics of the game because I was constantly pressing skip or rapidly following the arrow so I could get to the point where I could ACTUALLY PLAY. But the tutorial just kept going and going and I lost patience. Maybe the story of this game is really good. Maybe the game becomes super fun later and I’m missing out. Maybe this game is the single most complex and innovative game to ever exist. But I will never know because after what feels like forever of only following the arrow on the screen, I still haven’t gotten to the part where I’m allowed to play the game.

I have played this game for one month; currently level 58. This game launched at a time where people were tired of games like SWGOH or Marvel Strike Force for various reasons. A surge of players came in for the first 6 weeks. Many players were eager to spend money to secure their spot at the top. These whales convinced the devs to release more packs of ability scrolls which is the current bottleneck; where FTP players can keep somewhat of a pace with PTP players. Many ability scroll packs have flooded the game and can only be purchased with real life currency and not in game “dracoins” giving FTP players no chance to compete with PTP players. World chat has gone silent where only a handful of new players look for guilds. The discord channel “looking for guild” tab seems to be more higher level characters looking for good guilds since theirs disbanded. There has also been a real slow down of youtuber’s content. I believe the devs give the players anything they want when, in certain areas like the bottleneck, they should say no. When FTP players drop out, it quickly becomes PTP or stay at the bottom with no chance to be competitive. I really like the game but I fear with the lack of new players and a large group of PTP players, FTP players are soon to be pushed out early in the development of a game that currently lacks content and name recognition. Still love the game and will continue to play unless the gap between FTP and PTP grows too wide.
