Sorry this fun grind game is getting shut down. I enjoyed my time in DR. The bling gnome was an absolute riot. A lot of good memories in this game, the funny loot item names, the bad jokes by NPCs, good people in this game, and of course the bling gnome.

Aw, that sucks. I couldn't really get into the game for a long period of time, but I loved the humor/style of it. Kudos DR, kudos.

Thats a reall shame. It wasn't a groundbreaking game or a game of the highest quality but it never pretended to be, but it was fun, made me laugh and filled a hole 4 me for a few months. It also never took itself seriously which I think is a rare thing in todays market. Sympathies to everybody who worked on it and still plays it.

That's a shame, it seems ultimately F2P can't survive if they don't offer you the pay to win option.

It's a shame it's going away.

I've been subbed to it forever as it's my patch day game. (5 bucks a month is a nice little sub for my sometimes game)

Why don't they make it single player with multi-player?

The 3 devs left could probably do that in the few months left.

I enjoyed the game when I played it, but didn't agree with the sub  program. I Would defintely buy ( like 1 time price of 30-40) it if it were  changed over to a single player or diablo type small group multiplayer game.

It's too bad. It was  fun and I don't see why they can't modify the existing game to make it work. Guild wars does okay and  no one pays a sub for that.
