Are there any other good games where I can play as a dragon or dragonoid? Furshit and porn games need not apply.

Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark is the greatest playable dragon experience of all time.

That's an armor-based cosplay, and I didn't enjoy 2 nearly as much as 1 and 3.

I said "good" games.

I've looked at it, but isn't it a bit dated now? Did it age well?

>>339714835
I wasn't aware there were playable dragons in that one.

I really liked this game.
It was a piece of shit when they released it, so it quickly faded into obscurity, but over time they fixed the performance issues and added a brilliant expansion.
Gameplay wise it's somewhat barebones, but I found the story and the world really compelling.
The game, especially the expansion, does an excellent job of making you feel like a special snowflake, but somehow not overdoing it to the point of cringe like Mass Effect.

That's not a dragon.

But did it age well? A lot of those games from the same period aged very poorly.

It's nearly 8 years old now, friend.

I'd say the graphics are still pretty good.
Animations are maybe a bit stiff for this day and age. The advantage of it having received so many patches is that it runs flawlessly now.

I don't think it's that old to talk about aging, but if you're asking whether it's worth a playthrough, I'd say definitely yes, the story and the characters don't age, and they're the main reason to play that game. I'll try to highlight why the game is a good dragon game and a good rpg game without spoiling anything.

>you live in a world where dragon knights (powerful human lords able to turn into dragons) are blamed for killing basically Jesus
>hunted down to the last
>suddenly basically devil shows up to kill everything
>through chance you become dragon knight
>people hate you but are too busy shitting themselves from the devil
>game revolves around saving people who hate you by going dragon mode and fucking shit up
The game is also full of excellent side quests and hidden shit and puzzles. As a dragon knight you can pay XP to read peoples mind. This is an excellent mechanic because you don't always get something useful (literally just guard thinking about cold beer), but sometimes you can get hints, secrets or different insights into your quests. Also this being an oldschool RPG it doesn't put this in your quest log as "new objective - go here instead", you are just told the line one time and it's up to you what you're gonna do with it.
