Free seems right

I gave it a chance, downloaded it. Tried a few games.

First thing I encountered was anything that seemed interesting cost money. 1 strike
First game was a public game which I had 2 rooms to choose from. The game took about 10 minutes to start, and once it started the game disconnected. 2 strikes
Next I tried the tutorial and the tips it gave me to move around led me to the wrong hotkeys. A,D move camera left and right. Press a, character tries to attack something. D moves camera. Middle mouse is terrible for a camera move. 3 strikes.

This game is worth its price

So your saying that because you thought it was a piece of trash that it is right that is costs nothing? What kind of gamer ARE you!?

A pretty bad one, it sounds like.

In my opinion they need to remove the free status, start working on fixes, make it a paid game, and add an in-game non-paid currency. It'd be fine it it were a beta... But this is NOT a beta. This game has been around since 2007, and if they're passing it off as a full game, then they're kind of dumb. Before you release a game to steam, at least FIX it first.

I agree it should of been fixed but you're wrong on a few points

*There is hero Money, which is gained after matchs. This buys in game usables like potions and mines that can be used to heal and increase your max stats for a round. Many players do not realize these items exist.

*With a game having such a harsh learning curve soon people would buy the game and warn people not to play it even more since they HAD to pay. Right now, buying a new class in Dungeon Party is $5 in most currencies. I paid that for the Bard and all the classes are 50 Cyans. From a marketing standpoint you would be effectivly letting the game die by making it a paid product.

Okay, so the first one, sure. I can understand that. If they added it in recently, I was not aware because I don't want to put this game on my PC. It still does not excuse the fact that you can't buy a new class without paying, unless you can now. As for the second point? You missed my reason. They should've FIXED it, made it easier to learn, and then make it a paid game, removing the paid currency prices for the classes. Making classes cost real money in my opinion is never a good idea.
