I think dungeon synth relies pretty much on emulating 1990s to 2000s fantasy rpg video game soundtracks more than anything else.

I guess I would say I prefer more drone oriented dark ambient music as opposed to most, especially more recently produced, dungeon synth, as a lot of it sounds like vst presets and sample packs being put together with minimal mixing (although I understand that that is part of it's charm).
