I didn't give the usual introduction because today wasn't a great giveaway.
But I thought people should still know about this:
Yes, it's a dungeon crawler PVP that is also F2P in first person perspective.
Entirely online.
The free paid DLC today acts as an upgrade to give players access to exclusive grinding areas
Opens the market for trading with players (a key feature that should be included without a $30 paywall)
And expands their character slots.
Without it, the player only has one character slot. A one man team without any ability to trade or buy from other players,
Don't forget, this is an online game....and you're not allowed to trade with others until you pay $30! With so many key features behind a paywall, That's not how dungeon crawlers should work...
I'm not a fan of developers that release watered-down versions of their game or remove important parts of the game
With intent to charge people later in the form of expansions, DLCs or in-app purchases.
It's better to assign a price tag upfront than to slice the full experience into pieces for money.
It's not a honest business model.
I know it's free today, but I'm not fond of their usual practices.
Not to mention, the game is not only DRMed, it has one of the worst anti-cheat software.
(* There are reports on reddit that the software crawls *all* attached drives. To prevent that, users suggest using VMs, restricting user rights, dual booting or even disk encryption. ... WTF?)
I guess we shouldn't be surprised because the title is Dark and Darker.
You have a dark business model only to find darker things creeping in your computer after installing the game.
Dark and Darker my friends.
