Been playing a bit of Darkest Dungeon since release, and I have to agree with those who have said they've made some poor changes to the game since early access. Far too many ways to get stress/arbitrary stress as you move versus almost no ways to reduce stress/way too little reduced when it does, leads to every run, even good ones, with everyone Afflicted if not close to having a heart attack. That almost every fight has monsters who are very fast and also only do stress damage, so that they always go first and always do 20-25 stress damage per attack, means even 3 rooms in some of my dudes are at 70+ stress. It's unfortunate because during early access, the game was tough, but fair, once you understood the mechanics and classes, their limitations and strengths. Now there's multiple new mechanics that compound stress levels and basically force retreats or your entire party will die via cascading heart attacks. And that's not even mentioning the new slant towards Afflictions versus Virtuous, I've had 2 Virtuous triggers and like 40 Afflicted triggers. Before, it wasn't necessarily even, but it was more like 60/40.

I like some of the new additions such as corpses though, that's a smart way to prevent people from just having 2 lepers up front and then 2 highwaymen or whoever multi-shoots the front ranks from the back to just grind through them as they move forward when the frontrunners die.

So should I not jump back into Darkest Dungeon, a friend of mine I recommended the game to back in early access has made continuous similar complaints about difficulty with the release. Alex seems to love it though.

DD was good, but I feel like they didn't know when to stop adding new mechanics, and so you get the Fullness mechanic and heart attacks and increased stress generation and such.

Actually, maybe jump back in if you last played during EA, and see if you have a similar experience. I quit right before they added the Arbalest/Man-At-Arms.

But a great mechanic for a game about going irrevocably insane as the inherent horror of the universe becomes clear to them

Also, never touch books.
