Thanks again m8
well then. Double dipped. I'm not even sure which version to play now. Xbox one x or switch. I wish it had cross save

There's some terrible stalls and stutters in the cutscene and loading parts (like seconds per frame rather than fps loading in to areas sometimes) but the game itself looks and plays great.
Played couch co-op with my son until he bailed and left me to it when his mate wanted him back in fortnite, but tbh it was just as much fun setting difficulty higher and one-manning the dungeons with my pet wolf. Later I co-op share played it with him and that worked fine over home wifi. One thing we've yet to try is co-op on my ps4 and then shareplay with a friend of his. Might be a way around being unable to mix coop and network play at the same time, have to try that tomorrow as it might mean we can get away with playing together with just my copy of the game.

I feel ya on that. Hopefully it will come some time soon.
I played for about an hour of Minecraft Dungeons today. It's no Diablo 3 and, of course, it's not trying to be. What it is trying to be, a pick-up-and-play/accessible looter, I dig. I had fun and am looking forward to the end-game!
Is anyone else running into issues starting the game? I'm using PC Game Pass and it has an "ownership" error that I can sometimes get past if I'm lucky, then it gets stuck at loading "squid coast". Any ideas?
Update: I still have the ownership problem, but the way I get past it is to sign in as my son's account, then when it rejects it, sign in as my account, it rejects that and I restart the game and it lets me in. Then for some reason it will never get past the squid coast loading screen unless I select online game.
Hopefully they fix this soon.

No buying arrows but there are several items that can help out. Early on you can get armor that picks up more arrows, you can have skills that return arrows or use free ones and you can also have items that drop extra consumables when you use artifacts/HP potions. I have found a combo of those working ok but I still find it hard to go full bow/ranged only.
That's good to hear. That issue seems possibly distinct from mine, as I've never gotten an "unable to verify game ownership" message, but hopefully the two are related.
It has its own launcher for "Windows 7 and up" but Windows 10 downloads it straight from the Microsoft Store/Xbox App.
Edit: ah but looks like you can still get it in its own launcher for Windows 10. Little confusing haha
Any idea how level syncing and gear works among multiple players? Friend and I seemed to get random results, sometimes we could both open a chest, other times it was just one of us. And then some gear would be shared as in it disappeared for the other after being picked up and other times we'd see our own stuff.
And if a friend joins us at level 1 and we're both 9, will it be doable for all or will it be off?

I hit reply before I saw the edit but it's here in the reply and basically solves my issue lol.
was going to bitch about it being on the MS store, since I've tried it several times over the past few years and it has never worked on my PC.
Odd. I figured it'd be smart to just use the same launcher Minecraft uses
Another gamepass victory. I wouldn't have bought this but I'm glad to have it.
Gamepass absolutely smashing it.

No idea what these "reviewers" were doing or playing to claim the game lasts 3.5 hours. I've just spent nearly 2 hours on a single dungeon rinsing every corner looking for loot!
After a good number of hours with this, finally hit 27. Its a good starter Diablo game. Not too deep but a good early example of how to make interesting builds but without the number of equipment slots needed to do it. I must admit, I miss having more things to socket and equip but this fits in well with the seemingly shallow nature of Minecraft and then show a depth underneath as you play.
So many things they could add to really flesh it out but its a really fun beginner Diablo.

Nobody knows.
They should have communicated this, it's a bad look for people who want to invest into the game.
Not really. You can loot better version of what you have but the enhancements will be different, so there is an element of min/maxing if you want certain things.
Same, I'd never have touched it without gamepass, having a blast playing it right now with my son
Grabbed this for the Xbox on Gamepass. First play session was 5 hours long and I only stopped because it was 4am. I never have such long gaming sessions anymore but this scratched my Diablo 3 itch, and then some. Definitely plays like a streamlined D3 clone but it's surprisingly challenging on the harder difficulties.
Played the first few levels and really like it. But don't like how it handles characters between players.
Looks like my kid can only use their character from my game in My games and not their own own game.
edit: they can start a game with their character. Ignore this part of the post

Had this earlier. I could constantly hear a chiming sound as if a chest spawned whereas my friend could not. We finished the level finding all secrets and chests so assumed the noise was just a bug.
Crap, was just playing Creepy Crypt when I accidentally got through the gate at the end of the level and couldn't get back in to finish. I know some people have said this is a glitch but it's still disappointing. Other than that glitch I'm having a good time with the game.
PS4- Actually, got it wrong, it does seem possible for them to play the character from my game in a game without me as long as their account loads the game. I.e as it normally works
I'll edit the post.

Lol, well hmmm. We actually didn't find 3 of the 5 secrets and it did happen in 3 different areas of this one secret area map to the left of the first main mission area. Forget the name. Did you test by going back to any of those spots to see if they still made the sound after finding all secrets?
Is the loot completely randomized or will you find the same stuff through a playthrough or different difficulty tiered playthroughs?
If you check the zone, there is a list of what items can drop. Once you finish the game, you get the next difficulty which is better tiers of loot.
If anyone figures out how to pry a save file from the Windows Store/UWP version, so that I can move my progress from one PC to another, that'd be great. The lack of cloud-save support on Windows 10 is baffling.
Yeah, sound design is really solid. The only thing I hate is the bread/apple eating sound. I know it's Minecraft but it's awful.
For graphics and perf I find them equally good looking on switch and Xbox one X. 4k isn't obvious. But wow. 30fps vs 60fps is night and day. I think I'll play on Xbox first time and wait for a cross save (which can't be far .... you can sync your account ) on switch later.
Édit : wait why is it much more smooth handheld than on tv (switch ?).

So many questions in this thread. Let's see.
- Is there a personal chest somewhere in your town
Not that I'm aware of
- I heard crossplay with Xbox/PC is working if you invite the person? Anyone try it?

- Can you level up gear?
No. You can find higher level gear, but you can't level up the gear you have. You can enchant your gear though with different kind of abilities and passives.
- Is there trading or gifting between players? Couldn't see anything.

How to play Minecraft Dungeons cross-play early with this easy glitch
Minecraft Dungeons doesn't have cross-play support yet — but this easy glitch breaks down the wall between Xbox and PC.

No.
Yeah we kept looking around the area I thought the chime was, but after a while it just started to feel completely random rather than located in a specific area. It was happening to us on the crypt level and stopped happening when we went back outside to the exit.
I'm wondering if we missed a secret level or something. I noticed the secret / chest totals on the map can change if you find chests that spawn, which is annoying.
