Lords of EverQuest: Dawn Brotherhood multiplayer

Editors' ReviewDownload.com staffFebruary 29, 2024Taking unit models from the classes and races of EverQuest's massively multiplayer RPG, this knockoff adds nothing to the RTS genre and suffers from a range of problems. As in most real-time strategy games, you have to mine a resource (here, platinum), build units, and destroy the enemy base or perform other typical missions. Of the three factions in the game, the demo lets you play only for the Dawn Brotherhood. We found the units either too weak or too strong. The game has serious control problems, too. You can t build formations, and your units' behavior reverts to ""aggressive"" each time you issue a movement order, so keeping them from suicide attacks becomes a problem. This demo's multiplayer option works much like Warcraft's Battle.net. However, there are not many users playing online, and they're not very enthusiastic about the game. We suspect strategy buffs won t be much interested in this good-looking, but in other respects mediocre, RTS.
