Higher levels also unlock better potential loot, wagon upgrades, etc.Įarly Access version of Darkest Dungeon 2 currently offers only the first of six chapters. This meta progression unlocks new classes, giving you more starting options than four default adventures. When you die, and you will inevitably die, Hope, the XP-like currency you had collected in the run, is added to your account level.
Now, it’s do or die, and I don’t like it very much. Darkest Dungeon was more nuanced compared to this binarity of outcomes, offering the option to abandon run, adding to the stress but preserving the lives of adventurers. You will reach the next inn, or you will die trying. Once committed to one biome, there is no turning back. One could lead to tactical confrontations, the other to trinket/consumables vendor, third to a field hospital, fourth to watchtower that you can use to scout ahead and reveal the mystery nodes, etc. In every biome, there are multiple routes that you can choose at crossroads. Then you’ll press on, picking the next biome to cross, driving your wagon ever forward. You will rest and recuperate in roadside inns, using consumables to heal, reduce stress and invest hard-earned mastery points in skills of your choosing.
The evil that your ancestor dug up from beneath your family estate had spread around the world, and the only hope for salvation lies in bringing the torch of hope to the root of the problem. Traveling in a stagecoach, your band of adventurers will cross dangerous terrain, putrid wilderness, and burning cities, trying to reach the mysterious mountain. Well, the economy is not entirely gone, but instead of worrying about well-being, stress, trinkets, and combat upgrades for 40+ people, you only need to cater to the needs of four. The difficulty is still brutal, but the “economy” aspect and the long campaign are gone. They got rid of the base camp and management of dozens of adventurers, focusing instead on a particular group you pick at the beginning. Red Hook Studios streamlined the flow of the game.
