My favorite part of Darkest Dungeon is that the complete inability to affect what classes arrive on the stagecoach means that I still haven't gotten to try Man At Arms or Houndmaster at all. Seriously, when MaA came out I played 12 weeks into a new game with a 6 man stagecoach ASAP and never had one show up, then again with Houndmaster the same poo poo happened. I just started the game up to try out the Cove and got 3 weeks of 3 hellions + jester in a row.

"Snowflake tier" is the worst trend to come out of Kickstarter. Compromise creative control of your project to gain a minuscule boost in funding!

How much of the character development is done by the backer? Like i'm sure they'll be able to work with this and we haven't seen anything on it so no need to poo poo all over it just yet.

If I ever get a load of cash i'm just going to put unicorns in everyones totally serious and grimdark game. Abomination sounds pretty within the games universe anyway, most of my guys end up practically being one with all the mental defects they acquire.

Snow Job posted:Bleh, don't like the sound of this. They avoided putting in wizards and druids, but an overtly evil/monstrous class honestly sounds like a much bigger breach of the setting. Gotta do what the idiot who donated $5,000 says I guess! a·bom·i·na·tion/əˌbäməˈnāSH(ə)n/ noun a thing that causes disgust or hatred. So maybe your posts are the new class

Considering the existence of things like "Fallout Equestria" I rather suspect you're last to the party with this gimmick.  The latter part of that makes me weirdly hope that Abomination ends up becoming the "The more hosed up they are, the stronger they get" hero. You get rabies on an abomination? Everything is wonderful forever.

Abomination just sounds like you'll get a tentacle man who has kept his mind to help you out. Either that or a shambling zombie hulk that you've managed to control.

I hope the Abomination is just, like, a guy with a prosthetic limb and everyone's constantly all "This. UNHOLY fusion of man and MACHINE... how far will we go... how much will we sacrifice... for VICTORY??" and the whole time the Abomination is just saying "wow this place is messed up as hell and you guys are all loving nuts, I lost this limb in a farming accident you idiots"

I'm not really talking about the brony thing, i'm talking about a unicorn with barbed wire around its horn and a penchant for murder, but still gleaming white. Its ridiculous and people will complain, but gently caress them, they don't have to use the character. That's my point with this abomination thing, don't like it? Cool, use one of the other dozen or so classes.

The Abomination is a child molester. He's a really skilled solider, but he's also a child molester. Hence the name.

I was really hoping it was going to be something like the Tourist class from nethack. Just a regular dude without any special powers or training, in the wrong place at the worst time, with nearly totally useless equipment.

I was trying to think of other thematically fitting classes and what I could come up with was like a Natural Philosopher/Mad Scientist along the lines of Nikola Tesla and a Battlefield Medic/Sawbones.

I'm having a lot of luck with a Plage Doc/Vestal/Crusader/Leper team. They're incredibly tanky, can hit every position, 3 of them can throw out stuns and just poo poo damage over whatever isn't stunned/going to die from blight. I haven't seen a single bounty hunter or highwaymen in 12 weeks though and its forced me to try new combinations since I tend to lean on those two classes quite heavily.
