The feeling you get when you're sure that the universe you're in either bows in front of you, or gets destroyed (in most cases you'll be forced to choose the second option) is a very exciting one and after a while it makes you fight until you've given your last breath. Dragon breath, of course!
The battles seem to get pretty repetitive after awhile (of course so does "Diablo" after awhile if you don't mix it up). You swoop down, destroy minions and take care of the lairs before more monsters spew forth, and that seems to be it, over and over again; blow up minions, take out lair, sweep land clean of leftovers.
The overall single-player campaign of I of the Dragon will leave you under whelmed. In the 15-20 hours it will take you to finish you'll end up doing the same tasks over and over again.
Has some short-term appeal, but over time it makes you feel like a glorified exterminator, tediously eliminating an endless stream of generic monsters for no real reason.
The poor implementation just makes for one sloppy experience that's not even worth playing when there are so many great titles out this time of year. Don't waste your time.
Nearly everything about this game screams half-singed: the "Diablo"-riffic graphics, the text that doesn't match the voice acting during the clunky cut-scenes, and the goofily written manual that gives away most of the game's surprises. [March 2005, p.81]
