DOS is looking pretty good. One concern: I've spent what seems like hours wandering the starter/tutorial dungeon, mostly finding broken pottery that I have to pound away on manually--attacking it with a weapon breaks the weapon, and there's rarely any reward. Yes, I got burned even after putting out the fire with the water barrels, so learning to wait until the smoke stopped was useful. But I've not yet encountered any enemies. It mostly seems like miles and miles of nothing but miles and miles.

UPDATE 6/9/14: As others have suggested, the problem was that I was stopping every three steps to bash broken pottery. I DID on RARE occasions find loot, so that's why (but there was almost never any loot). To make it worse, I used bare hands because it wore down weapons. Takes a LONG time to bash pottery with bare hands! In an earlier beta, using a bow or spell did nothing, but now they work. Once I stopped that futile exercise, the tutorial dungeon went smoothly.

QUESTIONS: does using destructive spells destroy the contents of containers? Why does it seem that using a bow and arrow to bash things wears down the bow? That shouldn't happen unless the bow wears ANY time it's fired.
