I just gave up, I couldn't bear the grind anymore. Finally when I got to the Darkest Dungeon, and beat it miraculously for the first time, was only to find out the characters I used couldn't be used there again. At some point I would put my save games in another folder, so I wouldn't lose my characters, which really made me hate myself, for it's a kind of cheat.Īfter we kill the bosses the first time we have to do it all over again, then again, and each time we bet far higher against an ever increasing difficulty. When we kill a boss and lose some characters it seem like a fair price to pay, but when I got a party wiped it made me almost give up on the game. When we lose a character later on it can be a real pain to level up another, so the game can become really grindy. But as you progress through the game it becomes harder and more repetitive. At the beginning the game is very fun, if you lose a character it's no big deal, you can easily develop another. This game got my attention, it's dark style is very nice, and although it has simple graphics and mechanics, it could really get your attention. By DeyvsonMC | Review Date: June 26, 2016
