The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Demona]
and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.
I have often had mixed feelings when it comes to writing
these types of reviews. I am honest with my thoughts so
if you do not like my review, then write a review of your
own that will dispute mine. That being said here goes....
The Dragon's Den has undergone several, sometimes MASSIVE
changes. Sometimes the changes were good, other times I felt
that the changes were wrong. Having said that, I believe the
current Gods(mgmt) are on the right track with the current
changes that are upcoming.
There are quests to complete, guilds to join and experiment
with. The races that are available atm are pretty good, though
I think more races should be added. There are also crafts that
can be learned, want to skin that badger you just slaughtered?
The Wizards and Gods are very active as of late helping the players
at times, other times taking great delight in tormenting them.
The Gods and wizards are a fickle group of people. The players
have learned to expect the unexpected when it comes to wizards and gods.
THe Dragon's Den is newbie friendly providing a newbie school
for people who have never played on a MUD before, or the option
to skip the school and jump right into the mix of things.
Advancing your player character level is as simple as earning
experience points and completeing quests, and exploring. You read
that right exploring is a requirement for leveling up. As you level
up, your stats increase enabling you to kill bigger monsters and
maybe a dragon or two.
The current guilds in the Dragon's Den
The Adventurers
The Magicians
The Paladians
The Energists
The Warriors
Each guild is distinct and has it's strengths and weaknesses.
The race you select for your character also can have an impact
to what guild you might wish to join.
All things considered I believe the Dragon's Den can offer a
person the chance to feel what it was like to fight dragon's,
or cast a magic spell. The Dragon's are waiting for you, and
have some advice for the player.
' Meddle not in the affairs of Dragon's, for you are crunchy...
and good with ketchup!'
