For a game called "Dungeons & Dragons" there is a shocking lack of both dungeons and dragons

DM: "The phone rings." Player: "I pick it up." Cthulhu: "Wasaaaaaaaaaaaaap!" Player: \*Cries blood\*

Dragons are pretty high level-threats in D&D, which most players rarely get to fight because most campaigns don't last that long. Which does make it a bit weird to name the entire franchise after such a rare enemy.

Not always the best, but often a lot of fun

I've played a lot of D&D over the years. Hundreds of hours. But these so-called "dungeons"? No captives. Not even any cells. That's not a dungeon. that's a glorified cave. And don't even get me started on the dragons. Dragonborn? Sure, I've seen plenty. Heard my fair share of Draconic. And wyverns are fairly common I suppose but that's like pointing at all the dogs in the world and saying "we're infested with wolves!" I'm beginning to feel like I've been lied to all this time.

We asked our DM to avoid using flying enemies after a dragon tpk’d us by breath weaponing and retreating for 30 rounds. Give me a tarasque before you even consider offering me a competent dragon

Supposedly some sources in the past claimed his wife made the pick, but wiki says it was his daughter. Given how many variants I've seen over the years to avoid a copyright, it seems a good choice. Even became well known for the name by people who didn't understand it, like Jack Chick readers.

As someone who has played alot of Call of Cthulhu there is a distinct lack of Cthulhu. But I am presently playing Traveler and let me tell you something - there is A LOT of traveling.

This implies the existence of incompetent dragons and I really want my DM to have us fight one

A gold dragon is typically the one giving us quests, which requires delving into dungeons.

You made me realize Balder's Gate 3 does in fact contain ample dungeons and even multiple dragons.

Oddly enough, they're pretty much the only Steam friend I still have that reguarly comes online other than my sister. It's the other 3 players that have fallen off the face of the earth that keeps us from playing again

Dragon Delves exists, it is, I believe 12 different dragon focused adventures for levels 1-12. I recently ran a group of high school kids through The Shattered Obelisk Phandelver and Below, which has a dragon in it. The group kept avoiding the area with it. I finally had it make an appearance to save their bacon.

Its hilarious because its made to frustrate the playersvas much as possible. Getting a dragon to do anything is a monumental task. MINNON!

(Our DM tried that with the dragon at the end of Icespire Peak, but fortunately my character had a spell that grounded flying enemies and it failed its save. Dragons aren't nearly as bad when you know they're coming and have an entire module to build your character towards fighting them. Surprise dragons are still a nightmare though!)
