Dragon's Tale Review

[snapcall]

 Just want to give my thoughts after plating DT for a few weeks, as I have been looking for more ways to supplement income. So I am always looking for games of skill that involve money. First let me say, DT claims games of luck and games of skill. After playing for a week and losing a whole bitcoin doing mostly small bets/games, I've had some bad luck. But I've seen people win a lot
 
 From what I read DT(Dragon's Tale) used to be a cool game and a way to make a little money. But the owner has nerfed everything that gives anything back or gets you anything free. There used to be a lot of herbs you could find for some free BTM, but the owner cut the spawn rate waaaaay down,(I don't see why as he must be making a killing off this game?). Then the statues that used to give out 100 BTM at a time give 3 ksat now, and you can only get maybe 3-6ksat a day, from the looks of it. On top of this the owner "DI" now wants to take away "DT Splits", the game's only form of rakeback for lower level characters, witch is turn gives that money directly to the house. It seems this would be a change for the worse.

 They claim a 5% house ( I believe) egde but it feels higher than that. Also there is a rakeback system with max rakeback of 3%. So at top level I imagine you could cut house edge down to 2%. There is no way to even level your avatar without spending tons of bitcoin. They have bars where people meet up to buy drinks and there is a, "Kick the bench game". This is the absolute worst one of the games I have seen and advise no one to use them. After losing a ton on benches I moved on to other games, all of witch I proceeded to lose a ton of money.

 Let me add though they have parties at these bars and buy you drinks, and smoke cigars witch give you puffs off free ksat and BTM sometimes. It's a cool social experiment and people will buy you a drink or give you waters witch give you free ksat/BTM

  It's really a shame we simply cannot get a good RCE MMORPG. The only games that claim to be one such as DT and Entropia Universe, witch could be really good with the right tweaks.

I'm playing more DT right now though as I might have flamed it too hard in last review. Will post afterwords about the experience.

 Going to re-review this one as I shouldn't have posted the first one while I was pissed off. Going to play a few more games and try to give a more detailed review. Also did a good bit of editing from original post, due to trying to be fair.

 Played the needle in a haystack 1-10 ksat, and the 1-9 ksat fireworks. Lost 30 BTM but I think it was a lot bad luck. I guess my original post was read by more people than I expected and some people weren't happy about it. I'm doing my best to give a fair review. Don't really want to spend much more bitcoins so will probably just stick to the smallest bets possible but unfortunately certain drinks and games have higher minimum's. Cheapest Cigar is 5 BTM, just won 10BTM on bamboo off 10ksat bets. So not so bad on plants. Some players are very helpful thats a +.

 There are families that you can join and you buy drink's and cigars, offer help to other members. Mine has been very helpful. I'll continue to review with more posts just as long as I don't lose to much bitcoin in the process. Down 25 BTM for the day so far witch isn't much, but I've mostly played the small stakes that wont get you any jackpots. Oh those, everytime you win more than .050 BTC or 50 BTM you get a daily, weekly, and monthly drawing ticket. Daily is 50 BTM, weekly 500BTM, and monthly is 1 bitcoin. I got 7 weekly and monthly right now.

Only lost 10 BTM today on hours of play not to bad. Will update with more reviews. I hear people were angry with my first post saying DT was a money pit. Feel free to post replies if you don't agree or feel I'm being unfair. I asked a friend to sell my account for me and I guess he got an offer of 150 BTM witch they said never mind now because they were pissed off with my original review, his loss. You can also change name and sex if you message the GM, he's pretty cool about it. Looks like I will have to since people are less likely to help me/give me waters ect now. If you don't agree with something say it. I'm really holding back a lot and spending coin trying to re-evaluate my original review.

 The GM DI is engaging with the players about changes being made. That's another cool thing about DT is you get to talk to the guy who programmed it and GM's it. He does seem to take the time to discuss matters and thats surely a +

 Right now I'm dead even for the day and got some play through and DT coming from my mentor, so there might be something to DT if you play smart. I'm thinking one could profit if they learned the game very well.

 Also the gm Di is adding 120 freerolls for the next month lvl 2 and up. It's 1.3 free bitcoin spread out over the next month, so now would be a good time to give DT a shot.

5% house edge?!?  Woah.  That is by far the highest I have seen.  If I were you I would gamble elsewhere.  Is it possible to make this up on their faucet like things like cigars?  Be careful there, you can lose a lot of money very quickly!

 Ya people will smoke cigars with you and buy you drinks from time to time. There is also a thing called DT (Dragon's Treasure's). If you have a good mentor he/she will give you what they call a DT split. Once the DT fills up to 100% you can cash it out for .1 BTC. You don't even get your own DT until level 2-3. All in all this does come out to a little bit of rakeback off the house edge, maybe 1-2%, 2% probably being when you are higher level. The higher level you are the faster DT fills up. From what I hear max rakeback at max level would be 3%. Thank you for the reply jeannemadrigal and advice!

 I don't gamble there a ton myself. My main reason for the review is I gave a very harsh one after losing money, so had to come back and give a fair one. Also I am considering becoming an affiliate for them. But I have a rule about not promoting places I wouldn't gamble at myself. I will be keeping an eye out for ways to gain here. From what I've been told there are games of skill where you can actually profit if you get good at them. So that seems like a cool concept, as I've always loved skill games such as poker.
