First up is TotalPCGaming with a score of 6/10:
RPG stalwarts will be rewarded with a long and professionally penned tale, but as much as we hate to admit it, it looks and plays like a tribute to bygone days.
Then we have D+PAD with a score of 4/5:
In many ways Drakensang is a throwback, a swansong to the party-based RPGs of yesteryear, yet somehow it doesn't feel dated. It revels in its nerdiness, shamelessly flaunting its roots and never shying away from its role-playing conventions. And yet it manages to be fresh and edgy, a seriously hardcore entry into the modern RPG catalogue that defies as many stereotypes as it perpetuates. There are more Dark Eye releases on the way and if they're of the same calibre as Drakensang, they're more than welcome.
