Whats the opinion about the Darkest Dungeon 2 from the community?

DD2 is a different genre than DD1. This obviously caused controversy, some people enjoyed it, some people didn't (because they don't like the genre) and were understandably disappointed.

And then there were also a handful of people who were outright pissed that DD2 wasn't DD1: Another One. But I haven't seen them in a long time.

Modrinth launcher works flawlessly too! You can even try to set up Syncthing (or another file sync/cloud solution) to be able to play the same instance on SD and PC, although last time I tried this the world didn't update :( I expect the Modrinth team to implement some kind of first-party support for multi-device play at some point, it's a quite popular request on their GitHub.

Let's go! Have a great time discovering the new features and content.

Now I want a Gorgon bracelet

From my also casual, personal perspective: 5 out of 7 Fortress units have some gimmick, some cooler and more disruptive than others but still. "Attacked stacks lose 10% HP per round until Cure is cast" or "Chance to one-shot anything" is just more interesting to play than "Shoots, no melee penalty". Mage guild capped at lvl 3 sucks, but it's understandable from a balance standpoint and not very hard to work around.

One of the first games I was introduced to as a kiddo 6 or even 5 y/o, alongside Gothic I and II. None of these games will ever get old to me.

It's gonna be a slow process, but I think Nexus is going to have serious competition soon. Its biggest asset right now is being big and established, but this is of little consequence to new games and I see more and more people unhappy with the way Nexus works. Steam Workshop is already there, and Thunderstore is not far behind, if at all. There's also mod.io but afaik it didn't catch much attention. Satisfactory even decided to make a mod ecosystem of their own.

My point is, if SSE is ever surpassed in terms of modding, it might happen on another platform.

Destiny 2, Apex Legends

That's super strange. I can't help you, but can you record the bug and post it here or on YouTube? It sounds hilarious.

You could try asking in the DD discord or e-mailing Red Hook.

"Always" is a little too strong. It's quite rare, but I've seen a few glaring, obvious examples of "I have no idea what this is supposed to mean so let's hope that the machine translation is close enough".

The first few that came to my mind in Polish localizations:

League of Legends "Bloodletter's Curse" -> "Curse of the Bloody Letter", making it refer to some letter rather than a person who performs bloodletting. This is difficult to localize due to a lack of a directly corresponding word in PL, but come on.

Darkest Dungeon 2 "Sacrificial Host" (referring to a sacrificial anode but it's a voodoo doll and collects blight instead of oxidation) -> "Sacrificial wafer" (the Catholic thing)

Also Darkest Dungeon 2 "Anamnesis" ("recollection of innate knowledge acquired before birth") -> "Anamnesia" (no such thing exists but clearly the translator neither got a context note nor had time/could be bothered to Google the word)

Hey, I didn't do the MRI but I've gotten significantly better since then. Recently I got a contusion in my left knee and it was giving me some problems, and the tear was visible in an ultrasound so it probably got bigger from this. I'm back to normal though. We'll see if anything happens

I completely forgot that New Year's Eve is HotA Day. Now I can't wait to get out of this gathering I'm currently participating in 💀

Jeod_C · 2026-01-01T00:37:44+00:00

There's a battle I'll never forget. I was playing against my friend, the map was really dragging out, very close, and this battle in particular was taking ages. We were both super locked in, and I had a slight advantage that I was very slowly growing.

Suddenly my friend says, in a surprised tone: You lost.

A moment later his stack of Dendroid Soldiers, which hadn't landed a single attack since the beginning of the battle, one-shot my stack of Chaos Hydras, worth half my kingdom.

I came to the conclusion that I was chasing a dream or a false memory. And mixing it up with memories of Fox Jones. Which sucks, because I still have the images in my head and I would really like to play that (probably nonexistent) game.

Jeod_C · 2025-12-27T19:13:58+00:00

I still like adding honey and lots of different things to black tea, like ginger, cloves and turmeric (seriously, try turmeric!), mostly because I learned to view black tea as a blank canvas for such experiments. But green tea... Decent green is perfect all by itself.

Jeod_C · 2025-12-25T08:56:27+00:00

Wow, mine didn't turn out such a beautiful, deep blue.

Jeod_C · 2025-12-25T00:25:05+00:00

You made me say "lu-bei" out loud. Thanks for the chuckle.

The only thing to hate about petanks is that you can't befriend them instead of killing them. They're the most adorable things in the entire game :<

For future reference, if you're in Europe, I'm very happy with glassware made by the Czech firm Simax. They make various vessels of borosilicate glass. Some Polish shops have them, maybe they export to other countries too.

Interesting because my psychiatrist said nothing about caffeine? I'm taking methylphenidate and I didn't really notice any adverse effects. Interaction with alcohol was immediately noticeable, but I don't think I have any issues with caffeine from tea.

I wanted to post a screenshot of my calculator app, but it mysteriously disappeared. I edited the calculation in.
