The game itself is a Roguelike and each character starts from scratch. If you like you can build up an academy which lets you identify scrolls/potions for new characters, but it is entirely optional each character you make.

The worlds are randomly generated, you can collect loot, and all the class skills are open to you. You can crush enemies up close as a Fightermans, use a bow as a Rangermans, so on and so forth. My favorite class is the Necromanser which lets you debuff people and wreck poo poo. It has all the Roguelike trademarks such as collecting sweet loot, fighting insanely out of depth monsters, and eventually becoming insanely powerful.

I would guess that it is probably ok, but I've got a big backlog, and many more games on my wishlist and a couple more that i am going to buy in the near future and this game is another in a bloated genre when i have plenty of other roguelikes that I know are loving quality and purchasing it would be a waste of my money because i doubt i would play it anytime soon really.

also this thread is just boring and kinda terrible.

if it makes you feel better I never use any of the upgrade mechanics

I think its designed to make the game easier if you choose. Like when you make a character you can choose to identify scrolls by talking to an NPC, identify potions by talking to another, etc. There is an NPC that allows you to upgrade your stats, but its entirely optional and I've never used him
