Don't miss the Demon War expansion, 50% off like the main game!

Din's Curse, a astoundingly deep and replayable hack-and-slash type fantasy RPG with randomized world generation, is available 50% off for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. That's only $4.99 for the first week. For that time, you can also get the Demon War expansion for $2.49.

In Din's Curse, you will explore an extensive underground, slaying dangerous monsters, solving dynamic quests, dodging deadly traps, and in your spare time, plundering loot. Quell uprisings, flush out traitors, kill assassins, cure plagues, purge curses, end wars, and complete other dangerous quests or the danger WILL escalate. Not all is as it seems though, traitors will gladly stab you in the back, renegades can revolt against the town, spies can set up ambushes, and items might even curse or possess your friends.
Choose one of 141 class combinations and journey to an infinite number of dynamically generated towns with vastly different problems. Every game is a surprise! Your actions have real consequences in this dynamic, evolving world. Your choices actually matter!

If you're up for a truly original, open-ended action-RPG experience, make sure you pick up both Din's Curse and it's Demon War add-on for only $7.48 total. The 50% off special release discount for both will last until Tuesday, October 14, at 1:59PM GMT.

timppu: DLC is sold separately? So is there still a chance of more DLC coming, or is base game + DLC basically the "Gold Edition" already?
avatar
ERISS: Yes, this is golden. Selling the DLC separately is a GOG nonsense, a sellout.
Sellout?
Soldak sells Din's Curse and Demon War separately too.
So I don't get what you mean.

Rodor: And what about loot system? Is it satisfying enough to be compared with Diablo's one? Are there item sets, unique items, slotted items, skill-buffing jewelry and stuff?
avatar
JudasIscariot: There are item sets and unique items, yes. I'll have to double-check about the slots as I am not sure that Din's Curse has such a feature.
What percentage of the non-potion drops tend to be "trash drops"? Titan Quest and Sacred 2 drop equipment at ridiculous rates, but maybe 5% of it will actually be useful to any given character.

(I'd rather get more actual cash and less unusable equipment I have to lug around until I can sell it.)

Not really sure, to be honest, but it's not TOO bad :)

Is it open world-ish like Sacred 1 or Diablo 2 or is it just a town hub and all underground like Torchlight?

"Trash drops" aren't quite as useless as in other ARPGs.

You can use excess equipment to outfit the townspeople, which makes them less squishy when the monsters invade.

Now that's the kind of smart design decision I love to see in games! :) Definitely picking it up on payday tomorrow.

Torchlight / Diablo 1 style. ... Well - except things sometimes happen up in the Townhub.

This game looks rad. Totally buying it when I get some money. Too damn poor at the moment lol.

Was wondering how I never heard of it. heh.

Thanks mate, I prefer topside stuff with random forays into dungeons as opposed to the opposite (does that even make sense lol?). The premise of the random events seems interesting but at the moment I cant afford to take a punt on something I probably will not enjoy.

Thanks again for the reply +1 :)

Imho better to get this than whats on offer with the other current promo (if you have most of the games already... and even then...)
