Fuck you /v/, it's nearly time. Do you have any idea ho

>>381075119

I'm excited. I liked the original. Played at launch through a few full games, but they've added a lot since then (Cove, Town Events, Vvulf, etc).

Should be good times. Do yourself a favor and don't look up anything, it ruins the game thoroughly to know the party metas and best compositions.

>>381075119
I haven't beat the game because it's 80 hours of running the same 4 dungeons over and over. And the new "short mode" has various changed that make the game easier overall, instead of just shorter.

Fuck this.

>>381077241
I'm still going to buy it and starting a new game (AGAIN), which I wrill probably get bored of 40 hours in.

>>381077007
Except it's exactly the opposite. It made it shorter, not easier. Most of the mechanic that were making it too long or required heavy grind have been reworked, but the overall difficulty stays the same.

So for some fucking reason I lost the corvid trinket alongside 4-5 other trinkets for no reason

Is this a problem with the coming in hot build? And no, I didnt lost them in the bar or the chapel, they just gone after the last update.

I havent play since the crow boss update

>>381077007
i'd say that you should do the hard mode for the 93 week and hero death limits, but that's mean doing what you hate

>>381077190

What the hell, that's dirt cheap compared to what devs usually want for a dlc now. Based Red Hook.

Still on my first play through, 100 hours in. Everytime I get a hero to level 4-5 they end up killed by the RNG gods, feels bad man.

>>381077358
Argueable.
>More Power Leveling flexibility: Heroes of up to Level 4 may enter Novice dungeons. Any hero may enter a Veteran or Champion dungeon.
Removes grind, but also lets you used overpowered champions to trivialize dungeons.
>Accelerated hero XP progression
As if getting XP wasn't already easy enough.
>Random Hunger Checks do not occur in Radiant Mode
Just why. Hunger was never a problem.
>Higher Light conditions confer slightly more to party DEF bonuses.

Yea, no way you're not a Red Hook employee. They've added classes, items, dungeons and enemies in free updates. The base game is $11 on G2A, so you're literally paying almost the cost of the game for a small addon.

I'm not saying it isn't worth $10, but stop acting like they're fucking saints for having a minor DLC cost a relatively small amount of money.

More like fuck you for relentlessly shilling a DLC you haven't even played yet, at a price that is literally the maximum they could possibly charge with reason

I tried the game when I was at a friends place and loved it but the fact that you can get a near impossible to win ratio dice roll even if you got a decent team makes the game seem unappealing.

Is there a way to "grind" the lowest tier shit and greatly increase the chances of survival or is there a linear progression that makes it unavoidable to be thrown into the higher tiers?

My memory isnt perfect since it was pretty much at launch that I played it.
There were too many times where you got intercepted and the enemy struck first or something killing my party that had worked perfectly fine up until that point.
Same enemies as before but it was the combination of them striking first, me always missing and their debuffs always sticking that essentially gave my good party a 99% chance to fail from the start of the battle.

"lmao you should have had twice the health pool on all characters" doesn't seem like a good reason to why I lost.

I dont mind tough games but the fact that you can have a good party get flagged with a such a high chance to fail from the get go due to things beyond your control is just meh.

Fucking love the art design and everything else but it just strikes me as a bit extreme.

I think it's fair. Things can go your way as much as not.
Truly challenging AI in video games is yet non-existent. At best, it's tedious like in Dark Souls.
RNG can make a game challenging by being unpredictable, which I could say is realistic too.
Unpredictability should always factor into any venture.

Well, the game was much more unbalanced at launch. Now, as long as you know what you're doing, it really isn't that hard any more.

As for the gamepla it's a turn based dungeon crawler. Pretty damn enjoyable for me, although it gets grindy and repetitive. One important thing about it is that from time to time you WILL fail. You have to get used to it, no sense rage quitting over it. Many people claim that it's an RNG bullshit where nothing depends on you, but this really isn't true. At the beginning it may seem so, but if you actually know what you're doing you can really turn the odds in your favour. It's actually very satisfying when you finally learn how to play good and just obliterate those low level dungeon you used to have trouble with.

>>381080582
It's probably for the best. I'd probably run.

The Plague Doctor makes a strong case, however.

>>381079986

Crimson Court is coming out today? Fuck yes, time to finally restart. I had to stop playing for a while so I forgot what I was doing, but now with the DLC and radiant mode I have an excuse for a do-over.

>>381081047

Only the heir is a descendant. The adventurers are just goons from all over the place.

>>381080989
Then this isn't for you. There's basically nothing in the story you can influence. It's just 60-80 hours of grinding and then watching some cutscene about how all of it was completely pointless.

The journal entries you can find, the one about the Shambler I think, implies that at least some of that group of heroes were descendants, and it would be weirdly inconsistent if it were just them and no others.

>>381081462
You can be excited for expansions without beating the original game, anon.

>>381081380
I think the heroes are already too many with the roster limits.
You can't even have 2 of each in a full roster.

What the game needs is even more dungeons.
Or better yet more types of missions.
So it won't feel so repetitive.

Then you'd abandon literally everything on a torchless run because the stress is unmanageable without stalling.

>Nobody forces you to do anything
hurr no one forces you to play the game either, dipshit. Dragging battles out instead of finishing them quickly should never be the optimal way to play, but the development team is incompetent and made stalling the only way to heal outside of camp.

Torchless runs should be stressful and almost impossible. That's fine as is. Maybe a little bit more stressfull either. You shouldn't return from torchless runs sane and safe.

Not really, since that doesn't actually address the problem that people are trying to cheese. I guess you're just as idiotic as the developers

>Torchless runs should be stressful and almost impossible
No, they shouldn't be. You're trading extra challenge for extra loot, but "almost impossible" is fucking retarded. They're already an RNG shitfest that rely on lucky scouting. If you remove stalling you might as well just make it a straight difficulty slider and remove the illusion of risk vs. reward, since there won't be any reward.

That's a new boss obviously

>>381081535
It would be cool if they made the characters more varied, like during the kickstarter phase they suggested a system of their individual personalities and relationships they build with other characters affecting the game. Would be pretty cool. Like, one hero may hate another and when they're in a party together they get debuffs and may refuse to heal and buff each other, while heroes who do like each other very much may get big buffs for being in a part together, but a chance to sacrifice themselves to save their friend and big stress gains when they get hurt. Kind of similar to how afflictions work in a sense that it gives a chance to partially lose control over your character

I'm sorry but why are you excited? The DLC looks scarce with so few contents. Only 1 new dungeon? That's not enough.

>>381075119
I still think they should make a "The Descendent" hero as a kind of stand in for the player, maybe some kind of buffing class with some fun utility but not overpowered.

You could skirt the whole death mechanic by having the character queerishly revive a week or so after he dies, maybe with some grevious malus and at a universal stress cost to all of your other heroes.

49 is still a greater amount than the number of different shitposts guys like you come up with.

I have a really difficult history with this game. I am a fool for the aesthetics and the assets.
But then, I could never get far into it without getting turned away by the grinding, mixed in with unlucky wipes.

Also, I am really disappointed at how weak the modding community for this is. There are quite some added classes, but almost none are updated for current versions.

It feels kinda hollow, that this is one of my favorite games as a concept, but I never put in much time. Maybe I will be able to change that with this.

I'm in the same boat. But you should know they actually added a short mode. The funny thing is that even the short mode is fucking 40 hours long, without the DLC dungeon included. These devs just adore grinding. They should get in on the korean MMO market.

Enemies as hard as normal mode, but a lot of reduced cost to several thing (hero lvl up faster, buildings cost lower, facilities are cheaper, trinkets are cheaper, you get more loot). Still the same aspect like in normal mode for minimising rng.

The game is about minimizing damage when shit goes wrong.

You're obviously making bad decisions if you think you're entirely at the mercy of RNG. Because you aren't, ENG plays a part, but it's by no means the deciding factor in DD.

The fact that you're complaining about RNG means you're bad.
The opposite of bad is good. So get good.

So, as someone who's never played before should I play the Radiant mode instead of the normal one? I heard normal mode is too grindy.

Is it gonna be released for PS4 eventually?

I can wait as long as necessary.

I hope somebody will dump the gog version today.

The game is not that difficult once you really learn to understand how the dungeons work. For example, anytime you travel to the cove, you will be taking Occultists. Any time you travel to the ruins, you will be taking Crusader, etc.

>this is fine.jpg

>>381103880
*raises hand*
It's almost like there's a stat
*adjusts glasses*
that lets you resist movement.
*smirks*
And even when it's inevitable you get moved to the furthest slot, it takes a grand total of half a turn to fix it and then it's back to rape time. Woowwww DSP that was hard.

>>381104430
Oh, so now you're sacrificing his shit speed and accuracy for less chance of being moved?

>>381104118
>I like fast teams so I want the skills suited for the slowest possible playstyle i.e. dot attacks and stuns

Yeah, good thinking.

>>381103880
Leper was my most used character thorough my last playthrough and he hardly ever got shuffled, while at the same time obliterating everything that stood on his way. Hellion is obviously a valid pick as well, but she doesn't have the same damage potential and is more squishy. If you think that a party member which can one shot every enemy except bosses is not worth it because he *might* get shuffled, which is an effect that is used relatively rarely, can be easily resisted and even if it happens you can return him to position in max 2 turns is not worth it, you're the one that might be retarded.

>>381104502
Why are you talking about speed? Even with speed items a leper will almost always move last. His strengths are tankiness and insanely high damage output. This is like you saying you're sacrificing damage on a Vestal. Just use your brain a little bit.

>>381104967

>implying dots slow down the game.

Also, yes, not having dot or stuns puts the Leper in a bad place when most front row enemies have
good prot and medium stun resist

Im not saying he is plain shit, he is just very mediocre when you put it against other front row heroes since the Leper is a hog and cant work too well on his own.

At least one thing the game does well is being able to use all of the heroes rather effective even when some of them are better that others in they own roles.

The shrieker usually steals some items, even those you have "safely" stored in the hamlet

You will get a quest to recover them though (And it doesn't expire so you can take it when you are ready)

>>381106427

>>381106805
The Shrieker, unlike Vvulf, keeps returning.

>>381106376
I honestly can't remember.
For the second mission I'm sure there was also Man at Arms to protect the party member without the special trinket. That makes him and leper in the front row, and some healer and someone else in the back
For the third one I think I had a Hellion in front row as well as the Leper, to maximize damage output. It worked out, because I slew through everything before it managed to seriously hurt me once or even try to teleport me(I actually only found out there was a teleporting mechanic in this mission afterwards). Despite how big it was, I didn't have to camp even once.
For the last one, I'm sure I also had a houndmaster in the backline and an Occultist, since I prefer his heals to Vestal's. Don't remember who the fourth party member was, quite possibly Bounty Hunter.

>>381106913

Then, there goes my plan of collecting all the trinkets

This hasn't been updated since he released but my guess is it still works.

>>381108558
This. The numbers probably just that high because they coded some in for game testing purposes.

>>381108453
>Vvulf
Leader of the Brigands and invades the Hamlet as a Town Event. If you ignore him he destroys some of your building upgrades. If you kill him he's gone forever and drops a Trophy trinket.

>Antiquarian
A class that can find valuable, stackable items in curios throughout dungeons and from enemy loot that are used for selling. Outside of that she's incredibly weak in terms of damage and support. Has a camping skill that produces a random trinket out of thin air, can be any standard quality (no boss trinkets for example). She exists to make you lodsemone.

>>381108453
Antiquarian is somewhat subpar in combat but increases your gold stack size and finds special antiques when she interacts with curios that sell for a decent price after the mission

Vulf is a town event boss mission where if you skip it he destroys a town upgrade. Pretty tough mission with hard hitting bandits. His fight plays like a harder version of the X-pounder boss fight.

I can hear the Steam forum / Reddit bitching now.

It's up boys and girls

Nobody said the DLC would cost half the game price...

it's here

>Character class balancing and adjustments! Highlights include Crusader’s Bulwark of Faith, Highwayman’s Tracking Shot and Open Vein, Bounty Hunter’s Hook and Slice (Now, Caltrops!), Leper’s Intimidate, and maybe the biggest of all: Occultist’s Wyrd Reconstruction (now usable in any rank!).
>Comprehensive trinket re-balancing: you’ll notice not only stat changes, but rarity/tiering changes as well for some trinkets. Thanks to Maester Silvio for his contributions!
>Added Horror (Stress DOT) to a few monsters sprinkled around the dungeons…
>Added Laudanum -a powerful tonic to combat Horror, available at a Provisioner near you.
>Inexplicably, you can now enter the dungeon with less than a full party. We advise against it!

Nice

10 is not half of 25.

>>381109373
oops my bad but still...

Sure, why not. I'm kinda in the mood to bitch and moan about Darkest Dungeon again, I think I even deleted all my saves before uninstalling it last time.
Take my €10.

>>381109373
The game was 20 on kickstarter.

>Inexplicably, you can now enter the dungeon with less than a full party. We advise against it!

Reynauld and Dismas only runs?

>tfw you just bought it but you're too mentally exhausted + stressed to play it now because you were playing Rain World in the mean time and that game is a fucking enigma to figure out.

Lads...

>>381109540
9.99 is not half of 20.

No thanks.

>>381075119
there's an expansion? I've played the shit out of this game

>>381109805
It's just one dungeon.

>super far into the game (3 bosses left)
>haven't beat the fucking 2nd Darkest Dungeon
>OCCULTISTS JUST REFUSE TO SHOW UP AT THE WAGON
Fuck. I remembered why I quit just from going back in again.
Kind of want to restart but that's pointless since I'm so damn close.

>>381109862
lolling out loud

>I love playing with antiquarian

>>381109334
>That occultist buff

Nice. Finally a reason to run hands from the abyss

>>381109862
Its way more than that. Stop shit posting

>>381075119
The game is too RNG relying, yes it's part of the "hardcoreness" but bad RNG can ruin your runs. Most people who play trough this game just meatgrind their characters until they get a good team.

A fun game, with IMO fantastic art design and battle system, I like to play it but if I have streaks of bad RNG I just quit the and don't play it for several weeks.

>new sized dungeons that can be left and re entered
And so on.

So when the game says that "Radiant" difficulty is the best for your first DD experience do they mean it? Or should I just go with Darkest / Normal

>>381110227
Start with Darkest/Normal. Radiant is for whiners who want a dumbed down experience.

>>381109927
Stab is nice finisher on those enemies that you couldnt outright kill, you can successfully run a blight party with her in the cove, protect me is really solid, get down is good insurance from shuffling, and the dodge buff is decent stacked with other dodge buffs and/or acc debuffs on the enemy. Flash powder is her only worthless move.

Shes all utility no bite. Sub par in combat but if youre not a shitter you csn easily make her work and rake in the dosh.

>>381110227

It's less grindy and gives you the chance to muscle through the RNG by making stronger characters more available. It doesn't change enemy stats or anything and makes the game a bit shorter. No reason not to try it.

>>381110227
Are you ready to play for a 100 hours and grind limited content? If yes, play normal, otherwise radiant.
