So I bought this game on a whim because I love roguelikes and this on's been recommended to me. HOLY FUCK THIS IS AMAZING. Wondering who plays it and whatnot.


tl;dr of the game for the uninitiated (because I doubt many do) - You play as a group of heroes, going through randomly generated dungeons. You have 2 effective health meters, HP and Stress. Thing is, your heroes
will
die. But they're replaceable. You upgrade the buildings to help you continue. This game will kick your butt, but you'll come back with a new strategy, and it'll work.

I played it a bit but it seems repetitive. They came out with a new patch sort of recently so I might play it again soonish.

this game pissed me off a great deal

but I last booted it up months ago, so maybe they've fixed some of the glaring design problems

Darkest Dungeon gets too gamey after awhile.
beeboy - Everyone thought this game was made to troll pie but it was really made to troll pisskop.
Almost50 pisskop: Overall, that's a townie slot. Don't ask for specifics because with PK everything can be interpreted either way. It's probably WHEN he says/does things that matter, so it's more of a matter of conception rather than solid reasoning.
