![]() ![]() ![]() The game is littered with newbie traps, with skills and even entire classes being obviously useless. And the game does not fare even that well.ĭarkest Dungeon is a casual farming game in which you make obvious best choices and grind out effortless victories. However after even a few hours, that novelty wears off and leaves you with the game itself. The game does a good job of making itself look shiny, mostly by virtue of the narrator. ![]() ![]() I, like most people was fooled by this game's initial promises and bought it on Early Access release. The game had little public presence before this point, it went through Kickstarter and all and performed well there based on the same vague, grandiose promises but it markets itself as a "hardcore Roguelike" yet longtime fans of exactly that didn't hear of it before then. So how is all that relevant here? Let's start from the beginning.ĭarkest Dungeon started with a series of grand hype and promises, culminating in this campaign in which seemingly every video content producer on the planet had an early preview version of the game and is promoting it. We all know this story right? A grand ship who cannot possibly sink sails forth, ignoring basic caution and common sense. Without further delay…ĭarkest Dungeon - The Story of the Iceberg.

If you believe that this is merely the product of "not liking" the game I also recommend you employ the back button on your browser, because if that is the only problem with a game I will just ignore it. If you are not interested in an honest review of a game that had nothing going for it except the ultimately unrealized promise of future potential you should Alt + Left Arrow now, as "balanced" reviews are reserved for games that have both positive and negative qualities I can acknowledge. Fair warning: This will be very long and very negative. ![]()
