Intro

The Dungeon Defenders games are tower defense games in which you also control a character that fights, repairs, upgrades, collects items, etc.

Review

I never cared much for the Dungeon Defenders series and this sort-of remaster of the first (?) game shows the weakness of the formula.

There's an extremely limited amount of towers per character (4). Combat is extremely dull with only one weapon type per character and only a couple of abilities. There is no mazing and towers always have to be placed close together because they can be attacked, so no room for creativity there. Perhaps the worst is the tedious loot-shooter style deluge of shitty, boring, nearly identical items with such exiting stats as "+1 attribute".

I absolutely love the genre and i'm still disappointed every time i try one of these games. The Sanctum and Orcs Must Die games are infinitely better in basically every way.
