The problem? Spells aren't learned like skills - they're treasure, usually picked up off the ground. The information on the Intelligence stat states that it reduces the experience cost for learning skills and spells.The gypsy who tells you "you are a rare person indeed, in that you can shape your own destiny." Wrong! This game's plot is pure railroading, the only choices you really get are what skills to specialize in.This means you can often just use ranged attacks to kill them - it's tedious but safe. Artificial Stupidity: Enemies are prone to getting hung up on terrain features and can't climb up the same small heights you can.This is also not to be confused with the European board game Dungeon Lords, which takes more after Dungeon Keeper.ĭungeon Lords has examples of the following tropes: The game was released in Europe on September 2012, around the same time as Torchlight II, but didn't see the light of day in North America until a surprise release on Steam in December of 2015. Bradley was working on a remastered version of the game retitled Dungeon Lords MMXII, sporting updated updated graphics, reworked classes and new contents. Then in April 2012 came the surprise announcement that David W. Development was put on hold indefinitely in late 2009, and that was the last anything was ever said of the matter.
Combat is action based, with shield blocking and tactical movement being as important as stat growth, and the dungeons are immersive and interesting.įor a time, a Dungeon Lords 2 was in development, still trying to pioneer Bradley's vision. The character progression system is point- and level-based, meaning a wizard can buy wizard skills cheaper than armour skills but still get both-in practice, this means that characters become do-it-all übermenschen with ridiculous powersets by mid-game.
Rather than list what went wrong with it, it's easier to describe the good things in this game.
