Horrible, Horrible Game. The worst a RPG game can get. And guess what? I bought the Collector's Edition.
It however, did not mention the horrible sound, gameplay, lag, and bugs.
When you first start the game (assuming you have Collector's Edition), it seems as normal as an RPG can get. Decent Graphics and realistic forest sounds, but then as I got into a fight with a group of bats, I knew something was wrong. The weapons in the game are not in the slightest unique except the appearence. You click, you slash. In your stats page, you can use your exp points to add more slashes in your combo. Or, you can whip out your ranged weapon and fling daggers or shoot arrows at your monster from an edge for half an hour till it drop dead. Don't worry, you can't run out {0.o) .
....
This making the combat VERY repetitive.
The monsters in the game spawn randomly (you have an option for them to spawn EXTREMELY often, or just plain often) but they slow down your game and are really annyoing since it takes 1 minute just for them to load up, freezing your game every time they show up.
Choosing to play as a mage or Celestrial mage is impossible, as you will need to use spells from spell books. The trouble is, once you use a spell, you will need to wait an hour before you can use it again.
...
Making all aspects of combat in this game repetitive.
But the worst part is, that is actually the best part of Dungeon Lords.
You don't do anything in the game except talk to NPCs and fight monsters.
Even the NPC dialogue is messed up; many of the options you choose to say aren't implanted. Many of the options that DO work sound like they were obviously recorded at different times in different places (which is, indeed true)
Every part of this game is horrible and filled with bugs.
Bland Storyline, no journal of some sort to keep track of quests. Empty forests that seem to run on forever.
Even jumping in the game is poorly done. Jumping and then passing the ledge and then waiting until you start coming down is how you climb ledges (similar to Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone).
Also Occasionally falling through the ground and ending up in a green spaced Oblivion, forcing you to reload a previous game ( the game does not feature a auto save NOR a quicksave )
Oh, and did I mention it takes 7 minutes for you to load a saved game?
Save yourself the time and money. Do NOT buy this game.
