Play the Original Instead
This is a Rogue-like game with turn-based combat. You assemble a team of 4 characters and venture across a ruined, apocalyptic world in the futile hope of somehow saving humanity. Caveat: this game is a sequel to Darkest Dungeon, and superficially resembles the original, but it's a *totally different game*. In the original you manage a roster, equip your team for a mission, and then attempt to survive the mission. This game is structured more like Slay the Spire, with a branching path you must follow from node to node--no backtracking allowed. However, you can start over anytime you like and your characters miraculously come back to life. I played this game for 11 hours before giving up in disgust. THE GOOD: - The graphics and sound effects are *amazing*. They are perfectly thematic. - I like the little stories they developed for each character, which you experience as you unlock their abilities. They are creative and interesting. - It's apparently no longer possible to lose the campaign THE BAD: - They took everything good from original game and mixed it up into something bad. This game is ***not*** fun. - They've reduced the game from a 360 degree challenge of dungeon delving into a series of combat encounters. It got dull for me really quickly. - The "combo" feature in combat is overly difficult to pull off and vastly underpowered those rare times when you do manage it. - You start out miserably weak compared to the bosses and looking down the barrel of an endless slog to grind your way up to being able to beat them. - The relationship mechanic really ruins this game. - Quirks are usually negative and annoying, inflicted constantly, and very difficult to remove, making this another nice little bit of suffering for the player.
