You play a better game
Nicholas Adams
Looked it up on Youtube. It is one of the ugliest games I've ever seen. Whoever was in charge of the art design should apologise immediately.
Samuel Allen
>early access
Eli Morgan
I was optimistic when I saw the thumbnail user posted but god damn that was bad
Luis Smith
look up the wiki, but that sucks all the fun out of it
learning from your mistakes, realizing you can fail as times as possible, and internalizing that "heroes" are just meat puppets that can be replaced is what makes the game entertaining.
also play on Radiant Mode. it makes the game less grindy
Adrian Thompson
Are you fucking dense? The art design is the best thing about the game.
Hudson Smith
Failing over and over again is how you learn what works and what doesn't. Let your little warriors die. Accept death as a part of life.
Gavin Wood
It looks ridiculous user.
James Brooks
You may not like it but it has stylish comic vibe.
Nolan Miller
It's a really shitty game then

Iratus is cool but DD is better in every single way currently.
Caleb as the narrator is pretty great, though.

Hi nerd commando.

It's okay to be tasteless.
David Morgan
You don't, it's garbage. DD is the equivalent of playing at a casino. You just keep rolling the dice until you eventually win. There isn't any skill involved.

What? No. I'm saying the opposite, user. Can you even read?

Learn to enjoy grinding. That's basically all that you have to do to win, just grind it out. Try not to see through the repetitive and boring formula at the core of it, that'll definitely ruin your enjoyment of the grind.

Antiquarian gets you loadsamoney. Having loadsamoney means you can splurge on gear upgrades and quirk tinkering, making your life way easier. Pair her up with a Highwayman or Man at Arms and combo their repost skills with her protect me skill. Make Antiquarian interact with all curios because she gets a bonus chance to find antiques which sell for a fair bit and stack really high. Even shit that doesnt even usually give loot like torches, and this is on top of her just passively increasing how much gold you can hold in a stack. Money makes the world go around, send her on a short run with her boyfriends or a medium one if your feeling ballsy and rake in that gold.
Thomas Rivera
I've beatn all the apprentice bosses and have alot of level 3 heroes, I'm about to get the dlc and im wondering how much of a pain in the ass the Crimson Curse is going to be?
Logan Davis
Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer
Charles James
you can only start being infected by it once you do the opening quest, as long as you got a decent team together you can chip away at it, though once you start you gotta keep going back on and off until its done or the need for blood will break your hamlet.
On the other hand Flagellant is mad OP, like you cant go wrong with that guy outside of the ruins and he eats the courtyard for breakfast. The new trinkets and town districts help power you up too.
Brody Carter
Yeah I agree. That's what put me off it.
Gabriel Watson
Yeah its the districts im really interested in, and I like Heroes that are useful everywhere like the Hellion, I just don't wanna get fucked by the Fanatic for using my favorite Heroes
Sebastian Adams
ya hes a real bastard. You'll know when hes in a dungeon once you start it, the odds for him appearing in one go up for every infected hero you bring plus the areas infection level. You can always bail out if you dont want to risk it
Cooper Rogers
How does infection level work? All the wikis haven't been updated properly since the damn early access it seems
William Watson
You are straight up not supposed to fight the Fanatic. It's possible beat him, but he's intended to force you to flee dungeons, not TPK every time.
Anthony Morris
theres just a banner next to each area that gets more bloody and covered with flies the longer you leave the courtyard unculled. The higher the rate of infection the more likely you will be to get courtyard enemies replacing local ones, and most can inflict the curse. Killing a courtyard boss clears all areas and removes the curse from all allies, but it slowly begins creeping out as time goes on. Once youv killed the last boss courtyard enemies become uncommon in all dungeons, but you can cure the curse just like any other disease at your leisure.

This game isn't hard at all, its just absurdly punishing.
You can perfectly play this game with an IQ of 80.
But even with perfect play, the game is still going to kick you in the teeth whenever you get a string of bad RNG.

Iv never killed that fucking bird. But if I had to choose one of the standard bosses I think I dread going back to the Hag the most. I know I can just bring a few extra healers and go all in on back line damage but she always gives me shit
Ian Sullivan
dd was a great style, story, artwork and atmosphere coupled with a fucking dumb game system
i beat it but that's more of a case of "well gee, i got this far i might as well finish it" as opposed to "wow, i'm really having fun"
Jose Nelson
Because he's needed for their experiments, though Paracelsus may have different ideas about an "experiment." Getting romantically involved with a literal Leper isn't exactly a healthy choice.
Also because he's a precious boy getting bullied by the local religious folk.
Logan Sanders
Shrieker's tough as hell, but I have managed to once kill the nest, which gives you 4 tetrahedrons
I usually dont have a lot of issue with the hag, just bring a hellion and houndmaster, they'll wreck her shit
Aaron Morgan
its really just the fact she takes one of your guys away from you, and the "right" thing to do is just let them boil alive while you bash her crooked teeth in. I always hate shit like that

Upgrade the stagecoach first. From there toss four soon-to-be corpses into the dungeon for the week; only buying supplies that can help you loot curios. Throw them against the horrors until they break and die, then retreat with the loot before the last worthless halfwit drops dead. Banish the last toothless indigent from the Hamlet; hire four more fools; don't spend a dime de-stressing the idiots or removing the afflictions they so richly deserve. Repeat until you have sufficient gold to begin in earnest with some handpicked 'heroes' with useful traits.
Then remind yourself. Constantly.

Sebastian Richardson
>it literally just copy paste everything
I think it just isn’t your kind of game. I love a game where you can and have to dive into systems to find the subtle differences that can tip the scales in your favor when played around. Like the breaking points for when you can still effectively bleed fishmen or exploiting a pattern on a boss to lower its move resist enough to get it out of position to give you a huge advantage.
Tyler Hughes
He is super duper lewd, though.
Adam Flores
It`s a lotta luck, so you basically just mitigate the chance of luck screwing you, so go for definite heals with the religious lady, definite hits so avoid leper, and do not be afraid to leave dungeons early. Buy a lot of food and torches, i usually do 2 stacks of each depending on the mission length. Kill stressors first, like the crazy guy in the straitjacket and the fucking cup skeletons, also fuck wild dogs with that bleed. Learn what makes curios work right, like keys and shovels and shit. remember, overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer

I've played DD before and beaten a couple of bosses but stopped, now I bought all the DLC and want to do a full playthrough

Austin Long
Isaiah Russell
If you're a scrub sure
Benjamin Jackson
For me, it’s pounder.
Because of course your high accuracy marksman is going to hit the fusilier every round. Of course it’s going to do enough damage to kill it in one hit so your other members can keep up damaging the cannon and mobs. Of course you’re not going to get shuffled for some reason and throw off your second rank emergency valve that can finish off the fusilier if the marksman doesn’t.
Of course.
I mean, if you didn’t, your whole team takes 60 damage at once unmitigatable, but of course that won’t happen.
...unless?

I fear that change, it might end up a bad idea like it did for Pillars of Eternity 2. I like castle locations over nomadic stuff

CC adds a handful of mechanics into the mix that make things a lot trickier to learn when you're just starting out. If you already have the hang of the base game, figuring out how the new stuff fits in with what you already know shouldn't be too hard.

The first croc is truly the niggliest of niggers because you are forced to face it with under level 3 heroes and facing it blind is actually fucking terrible
It was an effective ‘we’re not fucking around’ encounter for those of us who had already played the game for a long time by the time the dlc came out and had completed estates, but now it’s just annoying at best on new runs

I WANT TO FUCK THE PLAGUE DOCTOR
Jose Nelson
The most important part of the game IMO is resource management. You have to know where to spend your gold / busts / ect. to get maximum value. If you fuck this up it will be impossible to finish the game in the time limit of the higher difficulties.
Brayden Diaz
First, learn dungeon affinity. If you've brought Crusader to Warrens or Weld, you've (probably) fucked up. If you've brought anyone that relies on bleed to Cove, you've fucked up. Certain party comps are best for certain dungeons. Each dungeon has a quirk (Ruins is full of unholy that have bleed resist, Cove is full of bleed resist, Warrens have poison resist, Weld has lots of tanks that cover for range poison enemies; and that's just the basics) and those quirks are not fucking hard to learn. And most importantly, those quirks never change - they just double down. Rank 1 and 2 Weld has some kinda tanky enemies, but at Rank 3 and above you REALLY notice the tanky-ness and it's here where your supposedly invincible "The Wall" party is going to die horribly.
Second, just about every class has multiple "modes". Crusader isn't just dumb offense, he's also got a pretty good stress heal move. And Holy Lance? More like Holy Shit. So the dumb newbie is going to think Crusader is only good in Rank 1 or 2, with Holy Lance as the "get back to Rank 1" move; but an experienced player knows that Crusader can easily just stress heal from Rank 3 and Holy Lance when necessary. Pretty much all of the classes are designed to be usable in any rank, even the fucking Arbalist. Bitch don't need to aim or be in Rank 4. She's a tank, she has blindfire, and blindfire increases her speed. She also has bretty good heals.
Third, unless you're playing on Stygian (which you as a newfag shouldn't be), there is no time limit whatsoever. If you need cash, make a cash run with an Antiquarian. Oh, what's that? Antiquarians suck? Get Down and Invigorating Vapors turn the whole party into dodge tanks. And she heals too. And the more Antiquarians in the party, the more loot you can carry. Antiques Roadshow is basically a raiding party that steals everything not nailed down.
Got all that? Good. Now go make us whole again.

It's more risk management than resource management. That's why morons like call it RNG based, because they don't understand that all of the RNG is presented right in front of them and they have NUMEROUS tools at their disposal to alter those base variables.
Jose Clark
Junia's Head + Ancestor's Scroll makes occultist be able to heal huge amounts of damage to single targets. Most of the difficulty of the end game of DD (CC or CoM) comes from stress damage generally and high target damage. I'd actually argue that most deaths are the result of huge crits on single characters and resulting regular damage that outstrips vestals ability to heal it.
Luke Reed

Really, Courtyard is the worst place ever and Red Hook went way too far. Of course, Darkest Dungeon 2 is apparently going to be based more on Crimson Court than anything else so...

It's nice to see stress on the womanvs blood and on the final panel. The little details make it.
Adrian Reyes
Crusader flat out shouldn't be on stun duty after Rank 1. That's the Abomination, Man-At-Arms, and Bounty Hunter's job. Furthermore, Crusader outside of Ruins is a very questionable choice. Don't get me wrong, Reynauld is best boy, but Crusader was really designed to attack unholy enemies and if he's not doing that, then he better be on healer-tank duty otherwise he's just not being used effectively. If you have no other option for offense, it's understandable, but Crusader is a crutch for newfags and you should be considering other classes if you're going into the dungeons without unholy.
Lucas Walker
Yeah, I only use him in The Bone Zone.
Cooper Stewart

That would be confusing since the least useful character is probably Leper. Yes, his design and story is awesome but his usefulness to a team not so much.

Sure, but since someone had to die, and this is a direct continuation of the story from 1, they're not going to handwave it or lessen the blow by making it someone who wasn't one of the "main" characters. It was either going to be Reynaud or Dismas, and we saw a highwayman in the trailer
Colton Davis
...no shit, source?
Blake Adams
source?
Joshua Barnes
Unrelated but are there "canon" names for any of the other heroes?
Jacob Rodriguez
I couldn't find shit, he's lying.
Wyatt Young
And you just know some brainlets on here will believe him without question.
Joseph Watson
I'm doing it!

Rec me good mods to spice it up. New classes and enemies would be nice. Overhauls not really, unless it's amazing.
I've installed Marvin Seo's new classes and they are pretty dope. Also the hentai waifu classes from the other guy, the fawn, offering and the such. Some are nice mechanically, but ruin the immersion, so I'll probably dump them.
Zachary Hill
Yeah you've convinced me, risk management is super important in this game.

I started my first playthrough not too long ago and was really enjoying it. I got to the part where Bandits attack the Hamlet and you can send a team to kill the leader. I sent Reynauld, Dismas, Plague Doctor, Vestal. The very first 4 heroes I got at the start of the game, all max level too.
I spent too much time exploring the map and collecting loot instead of just pushing straight toward the boss. Wasted a lot of resources and HP. We got absolutely fucked and I retreated before anyone died. Then after we escaped the battle and I tried to flee the area completely and return to the Hamlet, it said one hero must stay behind to fend off the horde for the rest of the team to retreat. I agreed, assuming it would let me choose which hero to sacrifice. But I guess it randomly decides.
Reynauld fucking died saving everyone’s ass. He was my absolute favorite hero too. I guess it’s kind of poetic that he be the one to sacrifice himself, but fuck me, I was so depressed because of that. Haven’t played the game since.
After seeing this thread though, I’m thinking about getting back into it. Plus, there is always the rare chance he comes back from the grave in that town event.

I don't care what anyone says, Musketeer was easily one of my favorite units and she kicked a lot of ass. Sure it required investment, but popping shit like balloons was unbelievably satisfying. Arbalest a shit though.
Owen Parker
Not even close, h-ha ha

If you start the game in launch options with -startnewgameplus you start with every hero unlocked and on the roster (not sure if it still works but it was probably a dev/beta test option at some point). The names on that file are:
Crusader - Reynauld
Highwayman - Dismas
Vestal - Junia
Man-at-arms - Barristan
Plague Doctor - Paracelsus
Bounty Hunter - Tardif
Houndmaster - William
Abomination - Bigby
Antiquarian - Katherine
Occultist - Alhazred
Leper - Baldwin
Arbalest - Missandei
Flagellant - Damian
Shieldbreaker - Amani
Grave Robber - Audrey
Hellion - Boudicca
Jester - Sarmenti
These names are all references to other characters in other media,
Gavin Harris
Formless Flesh is my favorite boss simply because of how interesting the concept behind him is, but he's by far the easiest.
David Gomez
If the bandit event triggers and you don't want to a) lose buildings and b) can't take it on because you aren't ready you can send a team of new recruits to it and have them immediately leave (one will die). I think on the lowest difficulty setting if you send one hero and retreat it won't even kill them.
Lincoln Green
Weird, because that thing was the closest I got to completely wiping, granted, my comp was weird for it but compared to most of the other bosses I had a hard time. Necromancer got fucking obliterated.
Grayson Harris
I thought the jester's canon name was Jingles. Did they change it?
Jayden Myers
>Implying the Leper in the trailer isn't the Spartan who saved literally everyone by cleaving the world in two.
Jonathan Rogers
I think CC changed it from Jingles to Sarmenti (the latin word for jester)
Luke Clark
You have to see your lads as resources to spend rather than people.
Cameron Stewart
She is also my favorite. Just kind of sucks that she is an Arbalest reskin.
