Are there any passive abilities in combat, or are they all active?

Is there any way to see turn order ala HoMM or is it random to an extent?

Is there any advantage to having a low light level? Like, you have a better chance of finding treasure or you gain more exp or anything? Or is it solely a "Torches are expensive/limited" thing?

I've been watching my friend play a bit recently and even at 0 light he seems to get enemies surprised fairly often, maybe even more often than when he starts out at high light. Has anyone else noticed something like this or is it just confirmation bias?

I dunno if it's been posted in this thread but you can manually move a kleptomaniac's stolen loot into your inventory and still keep it.

And they managed to work through some problems with the launch without threatening the life of Gabe or, as far as I can tell, anyone who works at Valve.

Yay!

Whew I know that can be hard for indie devs so I'm glad Red Hook got past that milestone without incident

Also, if you have good bleed resist due to trinkets/levels, then the occult heal becomes even better.
I stock up on the +blight and +bleed resist items whose only downside is -disease resist. I don't even know how diseases work, and half-think they haven't been implemented yet. Is it just something that's not as relevant until you're either doing lvl5 runs or low-light runs?

I'm pretty sure it's chance to get negative quirks like Lockjaw or whatever.

Does anyone else get all when, after a tough battle that gravely voice chimes in with "These nightmarish creatures CAN be felled! They CAN be beaten!"? In a tough game like this, that actually means ALOT and can be pretty encouraging.

iirc that's your ancestor talking, the rear end in a top hat who started all this and is basically responsible for completely making GBS threads the bed and then foisting this nightmare hellhole to you before offing himself.

I would love to see a bestiary that gets filled with information as you kill beasts/do missions. This game does atmosphere so well that getting a few written and narrated paragraphs about each of the incidental creatures you come across would be really awesome.

"These twisted mockeries of common swine relish the releasing of their turbulent expectorations, confounding the fraying dignities of unwary adventurers as reprehensible disease courses through their wretched bodies". That kind of thing. (Only well written)

The game already does that for the bosses. Should do it for all the enemies. Fully voiced. :getin:

Been playing Darkest Dungeon for a while, comfortably into level 3 dungeons now. I didn't play during Early Access despite having a key so all I know about the game is watching some streams back then and playing now. It is a good and cool game, though I cannot for the life of me figure out why you would use Highwaymen when Grave Robbers exist. Also I can't get Crusaders to work, it feels like they're super lackluster anywhere that isn't the Ruins, and even there they're just okay at best.

ps: gently caress giants

Telling them to "just skip the bosses" is a reasonable response to someone who is unwilling to lose anyone on their roster. Losing guys is an inherent part of this game, how comfortable you are with it is all on your part. Once again "What will you sacrifice to save the life of your favourite hero?" Sacrifice doing the bosses? I guess so.

Sorry that's the dumbest thing I've read in this whole thread

It's also annoying to have like, 5 fresh recruits, because you can't level them all equally and one or more of them are gonna be left out to dry when everyone else levels past apprentice.

Does Darkest Dungeon support negative stat values? Like, is it possible to have negative PROT and if so do you take extra damage and so on?

If you beat a shambler/collector in a dungeon can you run into it again, or is there some sort of flag on a per-mission basis that checks to see if you've encountered one before?

Anecdotal but I've only had it happen when I was actually stalling, and not just failing to kill someone.

I had a ghoul come in the ruins after I stalled for a bit and then was buckling down and trying to kill a bone dude but missed with every attack for 2 turns straight.

I'm watching a dude stream and on his first turn against 4 enemies (two thin skeletons, two skeleton crossbowmen), he has his plague doctor heal his half-health vestal for 3 health.

It's a champion dungeon and all his dudes are level 6. Evidently this game is not as hard as it appears if guys who make decisions like that can make it this far. :psyduck:

Looking for a shambler in this apprentice dungeon, it's been pitch black for the entire dungeon but no luck, final room OH poo poo IT'S AN ALTAR... wait I didn't bring any torches on this run :suicide:

It's amazing how dumb I can be when playing this game.
