When I was a kid, I think I was 13, I got a PS2 for Christmas. The PS2 had only been out for like a year and so there weren't a very many games to choose from yet. However there were a few good titles that I played the hell out of, and one of those was a rather obscure game called Dragon Rage. I remember as being one of the best games of all time even though it seems as though the only ones who ever played it were me and maybe like 5 other dudes cause that seems to be how many people remember that this game even exists.

It was different because so far as I know other than Dragonflight, and Dragon: The Game, Dragon Rage is the only game ever where you're actually playing as a dragon, rather than as a humanoid protagonist who rides a dragon into battle, like in Panzer Dragoon, Lair, Drakenguard, etc.

I just wanted to bring Dragon Rage to the attention of the developers of Dragonflight because 1. Its a fun game, and 2. I reckoned it would be a good resource to draw upon while you are creating your own dragon themed game.

I hated that game with a passion, despite my love for dragons. The controls were really hit and miss and fire breath ran out so quickly. I spent more time hunting for cows to get my flame breath back than anything else. I also just wanted to fly around and not be railroaded into looking after some stupid pixie.
