A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I'm a big fan of Darkest Dungeon, but I'm also a chronic restarter. Building a roster of heroes is fun, but permadeath is so punishing. I have a similar problem in XCOM where you spend so long in a campaign building up your roster, then you lose your ace squad and the whole thing unravels

I really enjoyed Darkest Dungeon 2. There are some radical changes, but it still hits the core vibe and offers a more roguelike experience. Even if I fail my run in spectacular fashion, I'm able to start over on the next one. Far less frustrating than a whole new campaign

I've only played the demo of Darkest Dungeon 2 so no idea about the changes, I liked the cart riding segment, it's a fun way to take breaks between battles, I'll take a look !
