Do You Wanna Go on a Side Quest?ĭragon’s Crown Pro does have an overarching story, but it’s not anything special to write home about. Each character has a different colored circle surrounding their feet, but with all the colors flashing, spells flying, and general mayhem, I lost track of my character nearly every battle. In nearly every clash, I’d mistake a Wizard for my character instead of my Elf. I never learned to not lose my character in the shuffle. If you bring in other players or even AI players, things get crazy quite quickly. I know I’ve already said that the beat-em-up action gets nuts, but let me emphasize that this gets worse when other characters dance on the screen. How else are they going to learn new spells? These are absolutely imperative for the ranged characters, especially the magic-wielders. By completing quests at the Adventurer’s Guild, you can unlock skills for your character that range from your basic health and mana boosts to unique attacks. It also doesn’t take long before your character can unlock so many skills that that square button alone just won’t cut it. It doesn’t take long before the game becomes far too chaotic to rely upon a frantic mashing of the square button. However, that button-mashing tactic will only work in the beginning. (Even though the Amazon is dressed like Red Sonja, she still has a higher defense stat than the fully covered Wizard.) From the beginning, you can easily button mash your way to victory. These three are tank characters with high offense and even higher defense. If it’s your first time playing the game, it’s certainly best to choose either the Amazon, the Fighter, or the Dwarf. Since the Elf, the Wizard, and the Sorceress all require arsenal management and have little defense, Vanillaware designated them as “Expert” characters. You still have your options of the Amazon, the Elf ranger, the Fighter, the Dwarf, the Wizard, and the Sorceress. Chaotic Neutralĭragon’s Crown Pro does not introduce any new adventurers. This is an amazing treat for those who missed Dragon’s Crown for the first time, but it’s hard to say if it’s worth visiting the Adventurer’s Guild once more after finding the literal Dragon’s Crown five years ago. Very little has changed about it, save for the sharper and clearer art. Dragon’s Crown Pro is merely an upgrade to the PlayStation 4 (and PS4 Pro) from the so-last-console-season PlayStation 3.
