Without a doubt this is one of the most rewarding RPG’s I’ve ever played and it’s also one of the most addictive RPG’s I’ve ever played which has ultimately culminated in me already sinking a great deal of hours into it. At the end of the day I knew I was going to enjoy Darkest Dungeon because I’ve heard nothing but good things about it, and now I know why. The visuals and sound design combine together to create a dark atmosphere and this atmosphere is fantastic to be apart of. The presentation side of the game is wonderful in my opinion. Traveling in your wagon, you’ll face increasingly difficult enemies in turn-based combat with many deep. This over-complicated style can cause you a few frustrating moments and I definitely would have liked them to have been simplified somewhat. Darkest Dungeon 2, developed and published by Red Hook Studios, is a strategic single-player roguelike game where players must assemble a team to beat back corrupt enemy forces in a dark horror setting. The controls were responsive throughout and they held up really well, but I must admit that they were very complicated at the start. I didn’t really have too many gripes with the game because most of what was here was spot on, but I did have some difficulties with the controls that were present in the game. The combat has a great amount of depth going for it and this made being in battle a pleasure to get involved in and ultimately some of the most enjoyable combat I’ve ever experienced. There are a number of different elements I really enjoyed, but the combat elements are what stood out the most for me. This variety means the replay value is off the charts and without a doubt I can see this being a game I will revisit time and time again and the best thing is that I can’t see myself getting bored anytime soon either. In terms of content this game will have you satisfied for a huge amount of hours and the main reason why it keeps you satisfied is because the content has variety dotted throughout. Each different mechanic offers something towards your experience and whilst it may be a little too difficult at times I was easily able to look past this because it also felt fair at the same time, which is very rare in games of this ilk. The gameplay is absolutely perfect in my opinion and that’s mainly down to how the mechanics perform throughout your time with the game. Darkest Dungeon is a game that takes this rewarding method and places it throughout the very addictive experience it creates.
