It seems that people either love or hate Dungeon Runners. There’s no grey area. ^^

Anyways, Dungeon Runners is a game who shouldn’t be taken so seriously, but instead it’s suppose to give a laugh and some fun. Reading the quests-infos I wonder if the Devs don’t live for Monty Python and Terry Pratchett. :P

The Bling Gnome is really cool. I got mine a couple of days ago and he’s really helpful. I don’t have to go back to town often at all now, and I can afford to bring with me much more potions since I don’t need to fill up my inventory with crappy items I just pick up to sell.

Does Dungeon Runners have the same level of item collecting that Diablo 2 did? I played D2 for 3-4 years doing item finding runs with my Magic Find characters… lots of fun for me. yes… I’m an Item Whore…

A Gnome that eats your unwanted loot and shits out gold in return..

That is awesome!

Diablo II did, essentially. Town Portals had pretty much the same function.

It’s really not an MMO. It’s a Diablo clone with a bit more community integration. And it layers ridiculousness thinly over really repetitious, uninteresting play. A bling gnome is a funny way to address bad design, but it’s still bad design.

Nice trailer, game is really funny too but the gameplay itself is pretty horrid. Small and extremely linear adventure areas =/= fun hack & slashing.

I have to say I only played it a few months ago, so I don’t know if they made the game so much better now.

Didn’t like Runners at all, much prefer Fate.

I have one of these in my NWN module. Other than a genie (notice that the one in Jade Empire is useless and doesn’t actually do this), I couldn’t come up with a decent justification for it. I’m gratified that a whole team of professionals couldn’t either.

Actually could someone who is familiar with the game tell me, does he give you a lower percentage rate of return on the item than returning to a conventional vendor would?

I thought Dungeon Runners was grindy and boring within the first couple of hours. Also it played like a single-player game, but with lag.

No-one else reminded of the little bastards in Golden Axe?

This makes me want to start playing Dungeon Runners again. I played the beta and it was really fun.
Too bad I’m addicted to Tabula Rasa at the moment -____-
