Depths of Peril Preview

RPG Codex is the latest website to offer up a hands-on preview of Soldak Entertainment’s Depths of Peril.

The character system seems to be pretty good and very detailed, offering and supporting different builds. Whereas in Diablo 2 all skills cost a single skill point, but most skills have character level requirements, Depth of Peril opens all skills, but the cost of the skills vary from one to eight skill points. So, you can either bump up cheaper (but still effective) skills or save the points for the really expensive ones. I certainly prefer such an approach as it removes artificial restrictions and lets you decide what you want to do.
