He already has Absolution. Surely he's a little bit religious.

I'd really like to think the Abomination is the experiments the Ancestor did with pigs taken to its logical conclusion. Also my guess is that the Ancestor lured you to the hamlet to carry out whatever part of the process needs to be done to open the portal. Things didn't work out for any of his friends or colleagues, I don't think he would be any different for families.

Isn't it pretty clearly implied in the various cutscenes that the Ancestor is, in some sense at least, still around? A lot of them are narrated in present tense or relate facts that would have occurred after his apparent suicide.

What is dead may never die. Someone earlier in the thread suggested that the end boss is the hosed up CthulhuAncestor narrating at you and I tend to agree with it.

Maybe there'll be a twilight zone twist at the end where it turns out everything you did up to this point was on purpose and the armies of swine fishmen and skeletons were actually meant to hold off the inevitable Eldrich onslaught; he gets possessed and the evil makes him write the letter and kill himself?

I figured the Ancestor's narration was more his spirit dryly commenting on what you're up to at that moment, sort of like a moping spirit anchored to the Darkest Estate invisible to everyone but still feeling he has to get his two cents in. I don't think he's the final boss, exactly, he's just a ghost cursed to remain in the land he doomed.

Oh man, camp buffs got gutted. Most of them are less efficient and they only last for 4 battles. That's not very much for the size of medium/long missions. On the plus side, way more camp skills prevent camp ambushes and they have additional utility too

Patch notes: http://steamcommunity.com/app/262060/discussions/0/458606248640648707/ Some other highlights are trophy trinkets as quest rewards for beating the Level 5 version of bosses, they look quite solid with no downsides for the most part. Also, camping no longer removes dots (though some camp skills that only cured bleed now also cure blight), buffs from camps now last only 4 fights rather than till next camp and several of the really good camp buffs now have an added downside, for example psych up on Abomination now adds stress damage taken as well.

That's one hell of a debuff to camp skills, huh Still, the free supplies from certain classes is nice. Enough shovels to cover graves/barnacle chests and walls on long runs cost one hell of a lot in my experience.

Some of the trinket changes seem weird, in terms of what's nerfed and what's buffed. Oh well! E: Holy Lance not being usable in rank 2 really sucks. Insurrectionist fucked around with this message at 19:20 on Jan 19, 2016 |

Also: +Minor mark punishment tacked on to Highwayman and Graverobber, debuffs added to Arbalest/BH mark powers +Disorienting Blast is now stun+shuffle, so Plague Doc can stun enemies in front too +Inspiring Tune in rank 3 and also additional buff -If It Bleeds finally got nerfed, possibly too much -Leper gets nothing. gently caress you, gimpy!

New post on the kickstarter pagequote:Darkest Dungeon began as a thought exercise. What would it really be like to battle the horrors so commonly dispatched in the games of our childhood? What would facing down unholy abominations day in and day out do to someone? What good is a glowing Sword of Unholy Slaying +5 in the hands of a blubbering coward? Also backers get a special secret item: "Finally, a special reward to all of you for backing. In game, you can claim an item called the "Crest of the 1100". This item will help you endure the stresses of the underdark. " Zaphod42 fucked around with this message at 19:34 on Jan 19, 2016 |

Oh god, the mark teams I'm gonna make... Though my only complaint is that I hoped Arbalest and Bounty Hunter got more unique debuffs on their marks. Though it's probably a stopgap since they don't have to worry about balance in the short term. Dat Darkest Dungeon... Panfilo fucked around with this message at 19:54 on Jan 19, 2016 |
