DRAGON COMMANDER: Command the empire, become the dragon!

[JenniWeasel]

Please tell me you're going to release an OST with this. That music is so epic and awe inspiring! It'd be awesome to have a special/limited edition with the game too. I've been playing Divinity II: Ego Draconis since it's release and it's still up there at number 1 in my list of the greatest and most involving rpgs ever.

[unacomn]

Command the empire, become the dragon, eat the bacon!

[TraustiGeir]

A part of me is saying "No ground combat? I don't know...", but an even larger part of me is like "Dragons with jetpacks?! AWESOME!"

[MeTheLittleBird]

When does this exactly take place? I mean, in what time in Rivellon?

[TraustiGeir]

@MeTheLittleBird This is supposed to take place before Divinity 2, at least.

[MeTheLittleBird]

@TraustiGeir Okay thanks

[haolihfaioefh]

@TraustiGeir Before? I though it was taing place after..... After the Flames of Vengeance expansion, is this the world going to war against Damien? And you play as the dragon knight from Divinity 2/FoV??

[TraustiGeir]

@haolihfaioefh Check out the walkthrough from GC: watch?v=l3LamjMfByU

I'm pretty sure it states that this game is supposed to take place before Divinity 2.

[haolihfaioefh]

@TraustiGeir Yeah, you're right- I actually bothered to go and do some searching after my comment..... Kinda a shame that- I was looking forward to settling the score against that bald c**t Damien. XD

[Montyleeny14]

The game looks fun! Will the same mechanics as Divinity 2 still be intact? e.g. levelling up a character, gearing it, obtaining new skills as a human and dragon?

[TheKingdomOfDragons]

i MUST get this one ^.-.^

[lordzilu1584]

When will be Divinity 3? I like Divinity 1 and 2

[ccheath776]

I have become a fan of larian studios which made a great hit with divinity 2. Which by the way got a metacritic score of 82. Because of that amazingly awesome game, I can't wait to see this new game by them. My only regret is that they are not working on a divinity 3 yet, and they should. One peice of advice I would say is to have companions and/or romances in the next rpg game you bring out. Regardless, larian is a great dev. keep it up.

[tohopes]

AWESOME!! I want to play this now!  Even if it does re-use Div II's music : )

[irguywhogunteechulsn]

Loved DKS so much and I didn't even like rpgs before I gave it a try. So keen for this as well.

[FkingJCdentonrape]

Finally bailing on Gamebryo? Larian confirmed for bro. Also, fix the animations and make the world alot more interactive. Even I wanted the 2nd game to be more user friendly, in terms of the interface, so I suggest you make it easier for new players :D Fantastic btw, got me really hyped!

[Mandysummers3]

so, is this like the last Divinity game? and are you like... your character from the previous Divinity games?

[Rietu]

This has made my day. I was wandering around looking at Skyrim videos with semi interest and found a link here from one of them...! My enthusiasm and sudden excitement (having not known that another Divinity universe game was coming out) was probably loud enough to disturb the entire street..!

[VagrantWulf]

Not that I think about it... @LarianStudios - Could you do me a massive favour? When I first saw the trailer of your UI, I thought to myself... "Hey, there's a strategy game UI even a short sighted person like myself could use!!" and it is. It looked amazingly accessible. If the PC UI is really different (and has much tinier text), could you leave an option somewhere to switch to the console UI? Even just a line in a configuration file hidden somewhere would be fine.

[VagrantWulf]

@VagrantWulf - NOW that I think about it, even. Oh Youtube, you and your lack of an edit button.

[KissMeWonderfulArse]

Im looking forward to this game. Dragon games are my fave. Any idea of making a third divinity series. I would love for another Divinity 3 game. Please..PLEASE make one, im beggin' ya.

[Nroug02]

Hm, a new game, based on RTS Elements while flying around as a dragon. There goes my social life. read about this in gameinformer magazine last month, im hoping for more dragon armours and skills, i really felt the dragon concept could have being expanded in Divinity II

[ondskab100]

Will this have multiplayer? it would be awesome if it has :D

[0Soundtrackfan0]

@ondskab100 Yes it will :) and it's gonna be awesome indeed!

[Drakasin]

Playing as a dragon that is commanding kingdom? >>> Instant buy.

[Dudinator123]

Please, Larian, please if on foot RPG sections are back please bring back mage robes and staves! Playing a mage style character just was not the same without them. It's like skittles without the fruit flavoring, it's like science without the cake, it's like a dragon without a jet-pack. C'mon guys, let us do some serious magic.

[LarianStudios]

@Dudinator123 Not sure what a dragon is gonna do with a robe and a stick... :-)

[Dudinator123]

@LarianStudios Oh so there's no on foot sections? Dang, I was still hoping to wear armor. Oh well, thanks for responding anyway guys!

[VagrantWulf]

@Dudinator123 - I'm kind of happy to see the on foot sections gone. Everyone ever has done that. For that sort of thing, there's Skyrim and a billion other uninspired titles. In fact, it was going against the usual curve that made Divinity II so interesting. Becoming a dragon, the humour, characters, and the well told storyline. So I'm eager to see them push against standard conventions even further with Dragon Commander. They look set to give us something quite original, let's not tarnish that.

[Dudinator123]

@VagrantWulf Well i'll still give it a shot. I usually don't play RTS games, but it has an action twist so i'll definately give it a chance. I just hope to god they put black beat of ARGGGGGGGHH in the game. After fighting the killer rabbit, i'd love to play a mission where I get to fight that!

[hansw15]

@LarianStudios the dragon can use the robe as a napkin and the staff as a toothpick :P

[Dudinator123]

Man, you guys are awesome. You actually care about your fans, you don't see us as just some money tree waiting to be plucked. Paying fourty bucks for that decked out Dragon Knight Saga, sealed the deal with it's awesome value. One question: Will we be able to walk around the ground still? I like the idea of lots more dragon combat, but I still want to grind and equip armor. And will the combat in the air be super hard, I'm usually prone to base defence games.

[gamer1024123]

I have but one question, why would dragons need jetpacks? Otherwise great looking game.

[Stormflite]

I love the idea, but the mechanics of the dragon flight are somewhat disappointing; it looks like there is very little challenge to actually 'flying', it's more just being able to move in a 3D environment. Implementing flying mechanics that require some skill would be totally awesome. It'd make soaring around the place with your jetpack so much more satisfying...

[SuikoDeux]

Three people hate fun.

This looks kind of like the best thing ever.

[LarianStudios]

Thank you ALL for the great comments! This is heartwarming and so much appreciated! Greetings from the Larian Studios crew!

[XXXXJosefXXXX]

I've played the company's releases and I can say that I can't wait for the next one =)

[Mindoug01]

выглядит эпично, поглядим смогут ли грамотно баланс реализовать, а то с такими масштабами легко можно лишнего наворотить и загубить гульку на корню.

[ThallesNinja]

ANOTHER DK GAME?

I NEEEEEEEEEED IT!!

[Kamfrenchie]

Looks nice, will there be some customization elements for the dragon? an can we have another one fight by our side? :D

[lunseisleidee]

It's too early to tell, but from what I read of the infos so far, I am worried that this game may be actually much more centered on the multiplayer experience than in providing a satisfying single player narrative. I really hope I am wrong.

[DanXNguyen]

This looks kool

[flyby981]

Is this a sequel to Divinity 2 or is it just set in the Divinity universe? Will we be able to see and interact with prominent characters from Divinity 2 like Zandalor? Last question, will we be able to play in human form as well as dragon form?

Looks great, love the dragon with a jet pack :D.

[gracieandnorasmom]

wow just can't wait!!! have been waiting for a sequel since i beat Divinity II haven't played 1 but so can't wait for this!!!!! Thank You Larian studios for producing another divinity!!!! When will it be coming out??or where can i find out when there is a date set for release??

[Paulfiend]

"...epic turn-based strategy and immersive role-playing set in the award-winning Divinity™ universe..." Great!

[AsparaIn]

MAKE A LONGER TRAILER PLZ

[IcyScythe]

well this looks... different... and pretty damn cool!

[DrTssha]

This game packs so much awesome I don't know if the world can handle it. I say f' the world, it can crack in half with the awesome for all I care, I'M PLAYING THIS GAME.

[TheScreamingGoblin]

WAT

How did I find this by accident, it looks amazing, did you guys forget to send a trailer to IGN/Gametrailers/gamespot/the president of America

??????

[TheChimpyManCan]

Any game in which you play as a JETPACK DRAGON has got to be worth a good look.

[joffeloff]

This looks bloody awesome.

[casper22ish]

holy crap its not a fps REJOYCE!

[TehgiggleKing]

I loved Divinity 2, had some of the best arpg combat I'd seen in a while, so addictive. I'll certainly be checking out Dragon Commander. Not enough strategy games around now.

[blitzandgoo]

guessing its not for con? damn i love mmos but i can never play them cuz i do not have a gaming computer

[onfiajake]

My old computer was shit, but speedyreviews. net shipped me a gaming laptop for free, just for writing a consumer report

[dinoboy34]

what systems will this be for?

[llOriginll]

This looks pretty awesome.

Please tell me we get to insanely plow through huge groups of enemies tearing them all asunder whilst plummeting up/down however we should so like? :D

[LarianStudios]

@ EVERYONE THAT LEFT A MESSAGE:: THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! This is SO heartwarming to read your encouraging comments about our new game trailer for Dragon Commander. And some are really funny ;-) Thank you, thank you! Greetings from the Larian Studios crew.

[Dudinator123]

@LarianStudios No man, thank you. There are too many develeopers out there who don't even acknowledge the fans. They don't listen to them, and they forget the fact that without the fans they may not be as popular as they are. You guys are an inspiration, because you actually talk to the fans. You don't give automated responses, you give actual opinions. You guys have earned my respect, and I look forward to your future games with the same courtesy you have shown us.

[spliter88]

You control a friggin dragon with a friggin jetpack strapped to his ass!

This is one of the most epic game ideas ever. Definitely buying it!

[stoojka]

драконы? не интересно, вот стимпанк да

[lrwhorse]

DRAGONS!!!! YESSSSS

[BlackSephir]

I WANT TO COMMAND A DRAGON[/hawke]



[love9479494]

Looks awesome!

[AngyerMorres]

Goodness, you're fast :) Do I see a pair of front claws? I think one giant "thank you!" is in order :)

[TheEasyGuitarTabs]

i miss drakan

[VagrantWulf]

@TheEasyGuitarTabs - Ha! I actually recently replayed that just for the fun of it. That's a game that makes me happy because it's one of the few (perhaps only?) dragon games (game?) which has proper flight sim controls for the dragon. You can actually pull off some amazing aerial manoeuvres with it once you've had a bit of practise. My only complaint with that game really is that it was a bit sluggish, if the dragon had been just a bit faster...

[roosterofjustice]

btw some1 stole vid wow

[AscianGaming]

This sounds like the game Hawke was asking for.... ("I want to be a dragon")

[FracshunWyldfyrBeau]

OH MY GOD!!!! I loved Divinity 2. I loved Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends. This is like those games spliced into a glorious digital slice of heaven.

Way to go Larian for making dreams come true. You've got my purchase, praise, and recommendation for sure!

[roosterofjustice]

@FracshunWyldfyrBeau they are blowing my mind i wish i didnt watch this now i cant wait!!

[VagrantWulf]

@roosterofjustice - I know, right? We need more games with playable dragons, airships, and possibly even floating islands. Actual imagination ftw and such!

[roosterofjustice]

@VagrantWulf not 1000's of same old fps or 10,000 final fantasys

[roosterofjustice]

one question sine you can build armies can you toast them(land)

[LousShar]

I have no idea what to think....

[VagrantWulf]

@LousShar - If what you've just seen doesn't capture your imagination at all then this is probably not a game for you, as you may just have lost your sense of wonder. Really, many people are perfectly content with men in uniforms slaughtering other men in uniforms, but some of us want a little bit more, something incredible, fantastic even. Some of us are romantics and we want escapism. But again, some are just happy to shoot men in uniforms. Whatever floats your boat, really.

[slowzen]

@VagrantWulf You sir, are a sensible human being.

[galaxaone]

ok one question ...... when is the release in belgium?! looks verry nice indeed

[MegaAnalMaster5001]

As the King of Anal this game has my full support.

[mfatal]

Legendary awesomesauce!!!

[Makon001]

Not gonna lie. I am crying man-tears in excitement for this already.

[Nenadior]

aweeeesooomeee

[BreadDragon]

I loved DKS, I'll be watching this new DC closely! Will probably preorder too haha

[aageon]

Ziet er goed uit! *Hoopt op Mod mogelijkheden*

[TheGameSquid]

A new Divinity game? And it's turn-based!? Awesome, I just love you guys! I'm eagerly awaiting more news :)

[wrypatrick101]

another game that is gana kill me with the suspense......whhhhhhhhhhyyyyy­yyyyyyyyyyy????????

[Jaesun999]

I love you Larian <3

And Turn Based? YEAHHHHHHH!

[TheAlienraptor]

Yay! Larian ftw!

[njarkSA]

this trailer is fucking nuts.



[VagrantWulf]

Okay, I was planning on leaving that last comment as my last comment on the video but... one more. >_> @LarianSTudios, could we have a desktop or two based on this? I feel you could do an interesting one with the two dragons you have on your Dragon Commander site!

[infernalcookie89]

okay here is my wallet... you can have it.

Game looks promising and I believe it will be the perfect game to pass the time until Divinity 3.

[sabin110581]

AWESOME! You guys can literally do no wrong. I LOVE your games and I'm eagerly awaiting Dragon Commander (and then Div3, pretty please?) <3 <3 <3

[VagrantWulf]

I love Larian. I absolutely bloody love Larian. That is all. There are things that I want from a game and they include dragons, because I love dragons, and I loved the Dragon Knight Saga despite being sad about being the last Dragon Knight. And now there are many dragons. There are dragons with jetpacks. There is a niche of people like myself who will be doing happiness backflips at this point. Have I mentioned that I adore Larian? Because I do.

[VagrantWulf]

@VagrantWulf And airships. And the Art Nouvea style. And and and... Larian need to stop reading my brain. All this would need to make it my ultimate game is the inclusion of werewolves but not as the foes we fight. And I mean big, burly werewolves. I love my paradigm shifts, what can I tell you? But dragons with jetpacks, airships, those visuals... this is incredibly imaginative stuff. Stuff that inspires wonder. I am deeply impressed.

[TheKary012]

De jó kíváncsi vagyok, a divinity marha jó volt:D

Hungarian I wrote this: It's good I'm really curious to Buckle Divinity: D I'm not the best English-,- SRY

[firstarioch]

A new game !!! by you !!! fantastic Larian.... just make it right please....Kiril's music is a must and make it EPIC !!!! Just DONT put it on Nintendo Wii U rubbish plastic box please!!!!!!.pc as always and other serious consoles...Im sure me and many other fans cant wait..... give us a sense of empowerment this time when in the Air !!!! best of luck .....!!!!!

[BirdseyeSky]

I demand your finest dragons !

[azraeel0nubian]

Turn based strategy RPG.. so is it gonna be more like new Kings Bounty, HOMM or.. King Arthur/Total War?

[ElPolloDiablo100]

I liked Divinity 2 but if this is not an rpg I'll need a demo before opening the wallet.

[Sidse]

No Divinity III? I still need to kick Damians ass :c

[roosterofjustice]

@Sidse damian stays alive forever(until divinity 39) then he commits suicide.)

[donni13grifon]

Music by Kirill? Nice!

I feel great game!

[MrOnasiKnight]

Oh yeah, that looks great. A quick question though - will we have music by Kirill Pokrovsky again? Because it just won't be the same if not.

[BigTune82]

YES YES And YES...Been along time since there was a good TBS ....These guys are on the ball.....

[Slvrwlf]

So... After being a Dragon Knight we go to being a fully fledged Dragon? Looks like I have to add a new game into my wishlist... I just hope it's on the PC!

[yellowredxx]

So a Divinity mod for Total War? With dragons and airships. Mkay.

[ferrousscale]

Looks like an instant buy to me.

I'm not sure if I like the art style of the units (but not sure otherwise either, too short to get proper look - less sterile looks would certainly help), but the game looks pretty awesome, ambitious, is made by LarianStudios which has proven it's worth making ED and DKS which were well liked even by RPGCodex (I haven't played DD, sadly) AND has a dragon (knight) as Player Character (no longer looking like a wyvern) - what's there not to like?

[killermarco007]

I really like it

a bit short but it's AWESOME

[DivinePonies]

Dragons, jet-packs, flying fortresses and steampunk. So, that's why Lar was having difficulties explaining what this game is all about :D

[jasondellamorte]

Am I still my badass DK from Divinity 2?

[RPGShean]

Oh holy shit. Shut up and take my money.

[killermarco007]

A new game??? Love you!!!! :D

EPIC xD

[LarianStudios]

@killermarco007 Thanks, that's nice! :-) Hope you like the trailer?
