What players say

Players say this prequel is noticeably shorter than the other games, around two to three hours. The gear-breaking mechanic creates a constant money squeeze, with some finding that guessing which items to sell becomes the main gameplay. A few reviewers call the plot predictable, but others enjoy the relaxed, low-pressure pace and the dragon backstory.
