To Those Who Have Finished Dungeon Lords:

Did you find the overall story in the game to be so magnificient that it warrants DW Bradley's name on the box?

Did it draw you into the game?

How would you rate the story and the telling of the story as you play compared to other good RPGs you have played?

Was it better than Gothic 2?

First of all you can't compare DL and Gothic 2 even when you're dreaming and not to mention when you're awake. As for the story it wasn't that bad but the missing sidequest and NPC's made it a little boring.

D.W. who?

But seriously, the story was OK but nothing to write home about.

I was a little put off because it never explained how the player happened to get involved. I played through feeling more like a 3rd party participant than the main character.

And then there's the end scene with Galdryn. Why add twists and turns and plot convolutions at that point? I mean the games over for Pete's sake, who cares?

I don't think it measures up to Gothic in any way, shape or form, plot included. But then, I consider the Gothic series to be the best RPG's I've ever played, so I'm prejudiced!

Let me clarify that part of my post. I meant was the story in Dungeon Lords better than the story in Gothic 2? I didn't mean the gameplay.

no i thoud it was just generic fantasy crap.gothic 2 had a real cool story ,very unic and interesting but i found the story in gothic 1 even better.the whole jail sentting and the sleeper stuff was great.

In my opinion the story is bad, boring and not really something which gives you a further desire to find out what's going on, the only thing that got me going was the good dungeons and mediocre character development and the fact that there aren't many good crpg's out there.

Can't really understand what D.W. Bradley did with this game that's so special, he definitely has to learn from games Like Gothic 1,2 ; Morrowind, Sacred, Kotor 1 , 2 and the classic Dungeon Crawlers : Dungeon master 1 and 2.

I never could get into the story because of the "sidequests" you had to do to progress it. some of them they didnt even tell you about...I just liked the graphics for the people and the very few good dungeons mulitplayer.

It sounds like the story is uninspiring, among an overall unfinished product, so why is DW Bradley's name on the box again? Right now his name is synonymous with "has been" instead of an RPG storyteller. He should be embarassed for this crap.

[Sigarr]

Nothing about DL can be Considered GOOD. Its like comparing Crap to Caviar.
Story? What Story? What do we have here but 2 Powerful Rulers,one who wants His Daughter to marry the other powerful Ruler but the Daughter falls in Love with a Common Guard---TRITE! No Story here. its not even in the same Ballpark with Gothic 1 OR 2. Insofar as D.W.Bradley goes its certain He is Much More than "Embarrased". There is No Doubt that this is His "Swan-Song"! Most Likely he will end up declaring Bankruptcy and Close Shop. I seriously doubt that We will ever see another Game with His name on it. The Man did have Talent at one time but that was only because he was allied with Sir-Tech and Linda Siratec Kept Him STRAIGHT! Once he left Sir-Tech and went out on His own its been a swift Downhill Slide.

[Shock]

That's exactly right. He hasn't been able to do anything right on his own. I think he needs to go find all the Sir Tech people who lost their jobs, especially the project managers, and write up a new business model.

His name alone isn't worth a cow flop in Kansas anymore.

How true , how true....

The Story isn't so bad, just the way of Story telling sucks because of no cut scenes, worse voice acting and such stuff.

....... the extrem old Age of empires 2 had a better way of story tellling.......

Back on the shelf to gather dust this game goes. There needs to be more fixes to make this somewhat acceptible to play.
