Dragon Quest Treasures Review
6 Things We Liked, and 2 We Didn’t, About Dragon Age: Absolution

Netflix’s latest animated adaptation takes us to the world of BioWare’s beloved fantasy RPG series Dragon Age, as we follow the tormented Elven rogue Miriam when she’s recruited on a deadly heist at the heart of the Tevinter Imperium. But did Absolution get a critical hit or miss? Thankfully, much more of the former…
Dragon Quest Treasures Review – All About That Bling
Loot. Few words in gaming hold such power. The promise of sick loot is a siren song that has driven many a player to take on bold challenges and reconsider their objectives… as well as to make exceptionally poor judgments and even pry open their real-life wallets. Many games, regardless of era and platform, are fundamentally about the satisfaction of obtaining loot, but few will admit that. Dragon Quest Treasures is the rare game that states outright that accumulating a trove of legendary loot is the whole point–and, if you can endure some of its gameplay and technical foibles, you too can experience the satisfaction of having a Scrooge McDuck-like vault of gold (but not the experience of swimming in it).
Dragon Quest Treasures tells the tale of young Erik and Mia, who were first introduced in Dragon Quest XI. Dissatisfied after having been adopted by the pillaging, hard-partying Vikings, the duo decide to escape from the ship and go out on their own to become great treasure hunters. Along the way they free a duo of odd winged critters and stumble upon the Dragon Daggers, enchanted weapons that whisk them away to the realm of Draconia, where treasure hunting is a way of life. Somewhere on these floating islands lie the legendary Dragonstone artifacts, and Erik and Mia are going to get them all–along with an absurd amount of mythical relics just waiting to be dug up.

Unlike the mainline Dragon Quest series, which is turn-based and menu-driven, Dragon Quest Treasures is an action-RPG. Playing as either Erik or Mia (who are functionally identical), you explore one of several large open-world islands, defeating enemies, completing quests, gathering materials, and–most importantly–discovering those sweet, shiny silver and gold treasure chests. The more treasure they find, the more notoriety they get–and the more their base, initially a decrepit magical railroad station, becomes remodeled into a fabulously gaudy headquarters. This also opens up more gameplay elements, as well as revealing hints about the location of the elusive Dragonstones. While you can explore the game freely at your own pace, some parts are progress-locked based on how much loot you’ve accumulated.
Dragon Age: Absolution Gives BioWare’s Franchise a Vitality Boost

Ever since 2009, BioWare’s Dragon Age franchise has managed to carve out its own space in the fantasy genre. As much as the RPG series cribs from the classics to inform its own universe, there’s a unique flair that gives it an identity all its own. Even though the series has been, game wise, on ice since Dragon Age…
Dragon Age: Absolution is a missable spinoff that crams its cast into a too tight clock
Sneak a peek at this cutscene from Dragon Age: Dreadwolf

After hitting alpha last month, Dragon Age: Dreadwolf is at last on the horizon – though still the ‘far off, squint a bit and you can make out a few basic details’ horizon. BioWare have now revealed a sneak peek at an early cutscene, in which chirpy dwarf Varric muses about his old companion/possible ancient Elven god Solas. He’s the big bad, you see. The Dreadwolf himself.
BioWare have also released a few bits and bobs in celebration of Dragon Age day, including posters for upcoming Netflix show Dragon Age: Absolution, which is out on Friday. I hope it doesn’t do a Dota.
