Who will jump from DaD to DUNGEONBORNE?

[CriX Doomsday]

Release of EA DUNGEONBORNE really soon so i wonder who will play it to have comparison :)

[Apheirox]

Dungeonborne could be really good. I´m not sure.

Private account DB promo drive-by.... yawn.

It's on my wish list, just like Dungeon Stalkers. I'll have a look at both, and then we'll see whether DnD can still hold its own.

Both games are trying to break into the market that DnD currently dominates. I'm curious to see what they do better than DnD. In terms of graphics, they certainly look much better.

Dungeonborne looks like its made fully with UE5 paid assets, everything looks to bare bones, grafics, mechanics, movement, enemies, animations.
While dark and darker only has graphics and animations fro the paid assets. Gameplay wise is fully made by them.
So dungeonborne looks good but its plays like a default UE5 mechanics, no deep mechanics, nothing unique, nothing looks design by them

They use litteraly the same assets (look at the pots and skeletons) and animations than D&D :D

As for OP question, I'm on the fence. I think I prefer Dungeonborne but it lacks some complexity like multiple spells and choices of spells / buffs, passives, etc...

Everything else is pretty much better in Dungeonborne (level design, more game modes, less dark...) so I'll probably switch if my friends are okay (I know one of them prefer DaD so we'll see).

Most importantly, I have more trust in the DB team. IronMace has no idea what they're doing, the community is toxic af and will not help so I have really no hope for Dark and Darker.

To be honest, I'm more and more looking towards Hunt: Showdown but can't convince anyone to buy it :D

[JattAngelDragon]

Depends on how bad it is, PvPvE is a bad game mechanic and it needed to end as soon as it was thought of. Dark and Darker needs to ONLY be PvE or at least have that as an option

[Kangaroo Salesman]

I won't. Having played both, DB doesn't scratch the itch DaD does. DB feels kinda soulless in comparison, sure they use some of the same assets but it feels like DB did it worse in a way. Have fun playing DB, i just won't. :)

There is nothing wrong with making a game out of paid assets, But if no work is made on anything else (Which by the look of the gameplay they have not.) Then its going to disappear like most clones. I have known a few people buy assets and make a cool game out of them in college, really good games that are actually fun to play, But this just seems like another dev group making a lazy game.

Considering they're asking money for Dungeonborne at all and I've already paid for DaD, hell no.

I really do hope that DaD deals with the inane move speed meta next season, hopefully by deleting Lightfoot Boots.

That would be great. did they say anything about wanting to remove it? Because it was already there in the first Steam alpha :S

No, but I've seen a few people on Reddit starting to zero in on one of the biggest root causes of the Move Speed meta and turns out the root of all evils seems to stem from Lightfoot boots being at worst twice as potent as any other boot option with that base of 8 in Poor quality and a full 10 as early as Green.

And I honestly agree, if Lightfoot boots didn't exist a lot of the move speed meta would be alliviated because then people couldn't have their movespeed cake and eat it too in a sense with only Lightfoots and Loose Trousers alone.

[Rikuto01]

Just remove movespeed and give agility some universal dodge mechanic tie-in built around it.

Think the dodge from 3d Zelda games, not the goofy roll from Dark Souls. If using it has some kind of a penalty and agility helps negate it, that would make it a worthy stat.

If rogues actually rogue and its fun hell yeah i'll try it again, but i really love how DaD made rogue, just so filthy i love it

[Mechanique]

Already did in a way, can't go back to enjoying DaD after playing the better game.

I just hope the cost will be reasonable and not AAA cost like some greedy Nexon rejects charge

Whether you "enjoy" it or not, you will never stop playing DaD or posting here to complain about. That is your personality on lock.
