Personally I quite like dragons but do feel they are overused. A dragon in my view should be this insanely hard rare creature and you should never meet more than one in a game, and when you do then you really should not be expected to fight it unless you really have a serious death wish. Games like NWN made dragons far too common and easy to kill, as did Gothic 2 and Fable:TLC. To me, dragons should be like the one I met in IWD2, the first time I played that game I had to run away from it because it just wiped my party out in a flash - I had to use haste and just run to a portal to escape. To me, thats how dragons should be. Not some creature that can easily be taken out with magic missiles like in NWN
