Dragonkin: The Banished

I decided to check out the Early Access of Dragonkin: The Banished, an isometric hack-and-slash action RPG developed by Eko Software and published by Nacon. I've always been interested in playing something like Diablo, but due to Activision-Blizzard's less-than-stellar track record over the years, I've avoided it like the plague until now. So, what did I experience in this little slice of dragon slaying?

Date: Out Now (Steam Early Access) Platform: PC

Well, after making a Nacon account (optional, but needed to experience everything), I was thrown right into it with a playable prologue which showed off all the playable classes. With incredible equipment and already at Level 50, it’s a taste of what a high-level character is capable of while also telling you everything you might need to know about the game's setting. You're playing as the very heroes who stopped the Dragons from taking over the world, who then go on to found a guild and create the Dragon Hunters to protect the world. It’s quite the action-packed scene, and it’s fun to mow down hundreds of enemies. After the prologue, though, you're made to select an upcoming Dragon Hunter: a Level 1 character with barely any armour or skills to their name.
