Darkest Dungeon. Recently added the feature to turn off the controversial Corpses and Heart Attacks mechanic which honestly put me off the game. (look it up)
For those who don't know. Darkest Dungeon is a RPG which has a focus on the effects and the stress of dungeon crawling. It also has a heavy focus on positioning in a turn based combat system and a light system which effects everything in the dungeon. (if it's dark, you guys more stressed and enemies get stronger)
Stress is at first hard to manage. You guys can get stressed out which effects how they act. usually they have negative effects which also drags the others down with him/her. And once your guys get completely stressed, there is very little you can do about it.
Sometimes if their stress levels reaches max, they have positive effects such as inspiring allies, becoming more focus and decreasing the stress of others.
This game is bloody harsh. Like. hard as nails. You are going to lose, your guys are going to die and it's a big grind slowly getting resources and upgrading stuff.
By god is it addictive. I also frigging adore the artstyle, music and effects.
It's not for the faint hearted, but it's a really good game. By far the best early access game.
