That doesn't mean that area isn't a letdown compared to rest of the game (I wouldn't know yet), but you shouldn't assume that everyone feels the same way.
I love this game. The first 75% of it. I have been at RPGWatch a long time and I will tell you the Deep Caverns are one of the worst design decisions of all time. I played this game for 8 hours a day until the Deep Caverns. Then after about 6 hours there I had no desire to finish the game. I love the combat in this game and the items. I also loved my character and enjoyed leveling him to max lvl. It was so tedious in the Deep Caverns that I will never finish this game that I love and that is sad.

I had my buddy buy Underrail and we have been playing RPG's since Wizardry. He was unable to finish and lost all desire to play when he got to the Deep Caverns. We mapped out Bards Tale, Wizardry, and Might and Magic. So we know about tedium.

So JDR13 it is just not people on the internet, it is from true old school gamers, that will play these games until I take my last breath

As tempting as it was, I had to refrain from putting points in stealth. I basically roleplayed a doctor. So I dumped my skillpoints on guns, throwing, lockpicking, hacking and all the crafting branches. I had no points to spend on stealth.

Wish I was good with stealth in some sections though.

Forgottenlor, I'd like to know your impressions on the Deep Caverns too, after you're finished with them!

I'm two hours into the caverns. Stealth has been excellent. I've gone through about 14 maps without having to fight. I did properly invest in it, though. I've got it maxed out, have tabi boots and a stealth mask. I'm sure there will be areas where it doesn't work, but it does let you move through the central areas with little trouble.

That's great! Might be a good tip for those who want to avoid too much hassle then. Please do go on

Hrm, I think I would have prefered a new story with a new character instead.

I'm not sure this Black Sea area is what I wanted to see for the DLC.

Was hoping to explore the surface, maybe learn something about what has happened to the world (though maybe not, it's cool how irrelevant it is in the original game) and meet some surface dwellers.
