    Century: Age of Ashes is a solid, beautiful dragon-focused fantasy dogfighter that's within striking distance of greatness, once it hoards more content and balances its classes.

    Century: Age Of Ashes lives up to the potential of letting you ride around the skies as a dragon and battle others to the death. It has a fun mix of modes, and the moment-to-moment gameplay feels good. However, it doesn’t quite have enough to hold the attention of some players as it stands.

    I’ve found myself disappointed with Century: Age of Ashes. There is a fairly solid central PvP F2P game here but nothing to make it stand out aside from the presentation. The modes are basic and repetitive and levelling up takes so long it seems set to encourage spending real money on cosmetic upgrades. On the surface this looked like the game my teenage self dreamed of, but like most teenage dreams, this mainly results in sore wrists and a feeling of shame and disappointment.

    "Century: Age of Ashes" - came up with a good idea that hasn't been here for a long time. The last time when I experienced it was in the"Century: Age of Ashes" - came up with a good idea that hasn't been here for a long time. The last time when I experienced it was in the "Drakan" series from "Surreal Software" Perfect story and unforgettable multiplayer and now, after all these years, I experienced something similar..
    The game is intense and the gameplay fast. It is up to you whether you immerse yourself in the fight alone or with friends. You have a variety of modes from: Carnage: 6v6 to Survival: 4v4v4
    "Century" had a lot of players in the beginning, but gradually it disappeared. I have no idea why, maybe issues on release.? Although I didn't come across any. Only my friend had unresponsive control issue, but he has **** internet connection so that's his problem.
    I don't have to mention microtransactions. Whoever wants can support the developer and get something nice.
    Otherwise, in the game, the cosmetic items is obtained by leveling / completing the challenges for which the player is rewarded, lovely - I get a reward for playing my game.
    I see a mess in the absence of content on start. The game has after 6 months only 4 maps and 1 of them only for 3v3 it quickly loses magic and starts to be repetitive, and it doesn't and it doesn't add points to fights either. There are quite a few game modes, although someone calls for PvE which i don't think it would be fun.
    Another problem is "matchmaking" which calmly throws a new player against an experienced player, but no wonder when there are few players which cheche! F2P probably does. I don't understand why the game is F2P, this could come out as a full-product, and it would avoid all the puppets who jump after everything what is free!
    Updates and fixes should come as soon as possible otherwise it could everything go wrong.!

    I don't recommend the game yet, but you can try it.    … Full Review »
