I'd like some clarification on this part of the game description:
"Multiplayer notice: The DRM free version of Brutal Legend is single-player only."

So... does that mean that this version of Brutal Legend doesn't have multiplayer in it at all?

If so, I gotta say, that rather defeats the point of it. I mean, the single-player is fun and all, but at its core this game was designed to be a multiplayer RTS. The single player mode is, in fact, largely a tutorial for random map and online play.

As a sidenote, the words "Real Time Strategy" really ought to be in the description blurb somewhere. Too many people have been misled into thinking that this is entirely a solo game when a big part of it is managing a band. Look at the reviews! Most of the people who complained the most seem to have expected a different genre of game than they got.

Protip: This game is like Sacrifice. You control a powerful character, but your purpose is to lead, not to win battles alone.

Yes, it does mean just that. Multiplayer relies on steamworks which is a big no-no in terms of DRM Free, so...

This is not something new though, this is the exact same DRM Free version as provided in the DF bundle.

If multiplayer is an important part of the game for you you'll definitely want to get it elsewhere.

LAN was never an option.

And to the OP, the multiplayer mode is not the main focus of the game and never was.
das Spiel "Brütal Legend" ist nicht auf Deutsch (Audio und Text/Linux und Windows).
Ich habe während das Herunterladen des Spiels deutsche Sprache ausgewählt.
Hat jemand deutsche Sprache Patch?

Yep, that's one where Steam seems to have the better value for me.
SP/MP/Soundtrack for a $20 Done!
This can't be solved with crossplay?
