D&D: Daggerdale
- Thread starter Krug

It's $15, and... yeah, I consider that relatively cheap. I suppose if you were factoring the price for 5.33 friends to buy the game, I guess it adds up, but for my own personal purchase, the price is fine.
Whoops, I was reading the Witcher 2 thread at the same time as I was replying to this one and got myself all confuzzled.

I am very apprehensive about purchasing this game due to the fact that its quite short apparently. Even thought its only 15 dollars, I want a bit of playability and demand character customisation from any game I play now. I used to not care so much about it, but frankly in this day and age I want to able to retool a character I play. I dont think its a big ask. Its the 21st century, not the 90's.
Having said that, please please please, use a different D&D setting next time. I love FR as much as the next guy but they could be telling exotic stories in exotic settings!

The reviews on this title are in and they are, in a phrase: unversally terrible.
How this game passed WotC's approval process I simply have no idea. The developer's clearly ran out of dollars during development. This game was simply not ready for release.
Remember the two word review for Spinal Tap's Shark Sandwhich? Same applies for Daggerdale.

They don't even
WANT us to buy this game. I can't get it online for PC, nor can I even buy it at the official Gamestop.ca retailer as a DVD copy.
Seriously, what are they paying their distributors for? They should have put it on Steam for PC and be done with it. 15 bucks, even if it's crap, is fine. Not all of us are welfare queens living in our mother's basements.
Besides, I love gauntlet. Nothing better after a long day coding games than coming home and chucking some axes at undead. The biggest shortcoming is not being able to customize your character. That is some serious fail to me. Or at least allow Rangers to be in there, and pick your race too. Why can't I be a dwarf fighter? It's ridiculous. A Halfling mage? An elf rogue? Those are TERRIBLE decisions. There should be an elf ranger, at least. Halfling should have been the rogue. Some twit up in corporate HQ probably thought they were being avant-guarde by making the wizard a halfling and forcing us to play that. Lame.
IMO for games like this for 15$, even if they suck, WILL sell just due to name recognition. Not everyone reads reviews on gamer sites, some people will just see D&D coop game, oooh!, I'm buying it. Too bad Atari fails and doesn't have a distribution channel.
I don't even own an Xbox (nor will I ever), and I cannot legally purchase the game for PC. What are my other options, I wonder....??? hmmmmm.

Atari are a publisher, not a developer so it's a double-fail.
