Great! Didn't have to buy a new computer for local multi-player!

Hi,

Good to see the game released today! I am really into asymmetric multi-player, especially when playing in the same room when you can see people's reactions and have a good laugh. Anyway, I was a bit worried that I would have to buy a new PC in order to play 3 people as heroes on the TV and 1 person as the DM on a second PC in the same room.

I can confirm that the game is playing fine on a Windows 8 system with Intel i3@3.3Ghz, a GeForce GTX 560 and 6 Gb of ram. Not really a surprise. Better is that the game is running fine on a Windows XP system with Intel Dual-Core@2.3 GHz, a shitty ATI Radeon 2600XT Graphics card and 3 Gb of ram. The second system will serve as the Dungeon Maestro PC.

The game is very enjoyable by the way! The evil laugh button is just sick... :)

I read on the Steam forums that some people are having stutter issues. Have not experienced much of that. On both systems I run Ultra settings and get 60 FPS and 30 FPS. Slightly lower resolution on the older system, but very playable eventhough the system doesn't meet the minimum spec. Happy with the performance!

On second though, I do need to have two Steam accounts and purchase two copies of the game in order to play multiplayer (3 heroes vs DM) on two computers, right? No problem with having to buy two copies of the game, makes sense, but it would be nice to be able to share the same Steam account on both computers. Possible or I need to register that second account?

As for now the game is installed on two computers, but I guess I can only play on one computer at a time.
 
If this game supports LAN you could run steam in offline mode on one system.
Don't think it does though.
 
You can run Steam offline and you will still be able to play LAN.

Unfortunately you do need an active internet connection to be able to reach our Matchmaking server. We're looking into implementing "proper" LAN support in the future.
