Rune Stryders answers many of the questions you ask below. I don't know if Doom Striders does because I haven't read it.

But I could never use Doom Striders in a fantasy game, because while they're cool, they wind up asking more questions than they answer. The "arcane furnaces" most of them have on their backs are obviously an incredible power source. Why not put them to more practical use-- assembly lines, transport vehicles, a magical-industrial revolution? How could Doom Striders possibly come into being without any other major, world-changing technological advancements? Why WOULDN'T the world turn into the "painfully diluted shadow" that you mention?
