Darkest Dungeon: Ruination (LIVE ACTION FAN FILM)

[@Nemesis-wj7mk]

When you bring lvl 3 MAA to a level 5 dungeon because you don't have any other available frontliner.

[@Macnair94]

And then you realize you forgot to level up his frontline skills so he ends up in rank 4 anyway.

[@runningchicken3956]

"Man, this looks great, but I dunno... Does it really capture the characters like in game ?" **Reunauld opens the chest** "Yep, it sure does"

[@StuartChatwood]

This is incredible! Great work.

[@meshamania]

MY GOOAAATTTTTTTTTT

[@mossystone1847]

The big man himself

[@NoFriendsClub]

Thank you for the wonderful soundtracks!

[@samuelcaponi4516]

Walking into the Necromancer with your Plague Doctor in 2 and your Man-at-Arms in 4... Ruination indeed. Very good, loved the costume accuracy

[@suswee_8189]

Man at arms rank 4 is amazing support though!!!

[@hironguyen1708]

@@suswee_8189maybe that Highwayman was gonna dash ahead, leave the PD in pos 3.

[@wildelink7156]

highwayman advances, puts PD in rank 3, and MAA in rank 4 is viable, though i'd argue rank 3 is better

[@joseurbanos.domingo6344]

I mean its viable. Good support.

[@warnertesla8297]

Guess you forgot about bloody herbs for the plague doctor and that one shield trinket that only works in position 4 for MAA

[@adisca2k]

The game makes the radiant light look like the sun is shining through the roof, this perspective was very nice for reminding me that a bright torch in an otherwise pitch black corridor is only marginally better than being blind. No wonder the heroes are getting stressed by just walking.

[@sailorraybloomdz]

Klepto Reynauld opening the chest first. Yup, seems trustworthy enough. Good job on the video! A masterpiece!

[@cato1213]

Love your art!

[@sailorraybloomdz]

@@cato1213 Oh my godness, thank you so much!

[@cookieman5112]

Damn they got the actual man-at-arms for this 😂

[@scarecrow2097]

Me and my girlfriend talking about how adorable Plague doctor is, only to see her get skewered 1 second later and boht of us get +100 stress

[@disasterjones5798]

delighted just imagining you both doing the "That's the cutest fucking thing I've ever seen" bit in sync

[@Everyonesfavouriteangel]

The man at arms and necromancer costume design is actually amazing!

[@spencershiplett602]

The match is struck, a blazing star is born!

[@LuisAlvarez-mm5oh]

Nah, the lighting goes incredibly hard when the cultist starts making him see visions

[@bytecoded]

The feeling of an exhausted party before the boss is conveyed amazingly.

[@alecgarza1160]

the skeleton practical fx and the lighting were all great!! the costuming and sets were well done as well! very fun!

[@NoFriendsClub]

Thank you! The skeletons were a last minute request we did months after filming so we're glad it turned out well!

[@level100derp7]

Great work! Costumes, props, and lighting are all fantastic, captured the feel of DD very well while still having your own unique take on it all. Love the references to the game(s) as well! Phenomenal stuff all around!

[@NoFriendsClub]

Thank you!

[@ellanenish5999]

I love how Men-at-Arm's backstory was incorporated

[@OnARolley]

My jaw hit the floor watching this. Was not anticipating a DD1 live action video at the tailend of 2024, but I am definitely not complaining! Loved the outfits and the ambience so much! Poor MAA was going through the wringer on this expedition. That moment at the end with the Necromancer standing surrounded by the illuminated eyes of the undead genuinely gave me goosebumps. Love this love this love this!!!! Also, although it was unintentional I couldn't stop giggling at Reynauld's clanking around lol

[@bluecheesezilla]

The costumes in this were spectacular! I love how accurate MMA’s costume was to the game.

[@MattGraves121]

Fantastic Work! I always wondered how Darkest Dungeon would be adapted into other forms but this just blew me away.

[@jordancarma]

It's an actual dream of seeing Darkest Dungeon into a TV series, this video is amazing

[@Sistersilence]

Holy shit this is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. You clearly understand the game very well and the quality of everything from the props to the costumes to the effects was cinema grade. The attention to detail was incredible, from kleptomaniac Reynauld to Dismas coming in clutch with a crit. This is simply incredible and I wish I had the ability to like a video multiple times.

[@cls34]

Dungeon Crawler should be its own genre of cinema. I could watch hours of this.

[@JohnDayguy]

Man this was amazing. I really hope you make more DD content in the future. Cheers.

[@disasterjones5798]

Stunned into inaction by the ghosts of his failure is a beautiful way to showcase the pass turn chance while afflicted

[@emiliano8669]

That virtuos scream and the end. Amazing!

[@wolfman3650]

reynauld and dismas fighting side by side is a nice touch, also RIP Paraceslus

[@DieEinstes]

This is awesome. Love the accurate costume design. It's dark and gritty. Please make more

[@shnobrin7928]

Genuinely amazing. The very sparse dialogue and the camp scene were just perfect imo Even when The crusader and man at arms were arguing over where to go, with no audible dialogue was just brilliant

[@Skill_issue1984]

this is one of the coolest things ive ever seen man at arms looks exactly like him all the costumes were amazing

[@tempyxiv3044]

Very charming. I enjoyed the costume designs as well. The whole time, I was smiling. As a fan, this is awesome.

[@xXShadowXKingZz]

This was amazing, and the accuracy as well! Of course there is ruination when you DONT BRING A HEALER

[@vernontk]

For a fan film, you really captured the mood and your actors committed. I was entertained!

[@TheManfio]

Passion, authenticity and accurate visual identity, limited only by budget. And we can all think of a few studios that would do a much worse job with 2 hours and a budget of millions! Amazing stuff!

[@basilioyur7132]

Simply incredible! This game is a timeless masterpiece.

[@Dr.Akakia]

Except the DD2, it was trash

[@basilioyur7132]

@Dr.Akakia ur tripping, DD2 ain't bad, while DD1 is a rpg dungeon crawler, while DD2 is a roguelite dungeon crawler, it ain't bad, its simply different

[@Sergiodelbetis]

Can't wait for the Part 2 with the legendary 0 bleed crit heal from the occultist

[@crusader5256]

This is beautiful! I love the choice of actor for Man at Arms.

[@andriesgouws8543]

That was fucking AWESOME!!!!!! I loved the skeletons rising. And the legend Wayne June there at the end! Man! Magnificent job for everyone involved.

[@Spathe]

This just makes me want to see what you would be capable of with a crazy budget... super super rad

[@lomp.]

Amazing work, the franchise got everything for an animated serie, even live action, well done!

[@OmniPeasant]

Sheeh, amazing work!

[@Roflcoaster123]

This is an absolutely gorgeous piece of work, and the costumes are impeccable

[@kojinko]

Ooo hubud lubod, a masterful parry and clear Rogue, you've earned a subscriber.

[@deafnoisemarine6294]

Beautiful costumes and practical effects! I'd love to see some behind the scenes, you can tell there's so much love and appreciation for the game!

[@whoxman1621]

I LOVE it guys. And you love it too: I mean that it's obvious the love you feel for this game that you have poured in this fan film: the ambiance, the costumes, the action, everything.

[@Zenith_Guard]

✋️ PEAK CINEMA 🤚 Commenting for the algorithm, hope this goes viral and gets Red Hook's attention!

ABSOLUTE CINEMA!!!!

[@overblock538]

Truly a piece of art

[@grishmael]

So cool you were able to get the actual Barristan for your MAA. Excellent work on this!

[@tomyfabbro4732]

Barristan, Reynauld and Dismas always be a great group!

[@lucacapasso9493]

Congrats on the costumes, the necromancer especially looked amazing! This was great. What a fantastic community.

[@a_ham]

I have faith that these three can beat the necromancer in a dps race! Of course, the stress relief back at town won't be cheap...

[@Dragon.R.1911]

The whole party and The Necromancer looks fire as this short!

[@Seththcleric]

Wow so cool! love the costumes and subtle nods to the gameplay mechanics as cinematic moments, it makes my heart so happy to see you express your imagination in such a heartfelt way, huge kudos and thanks for the video

[@chosen_undeadd544]

Words cannot express how happy this makes me, Darkest Dungeon is my favorite game, and you all DELIVERED.

[@scientiststreamer7674]

Great video! Been watching this channel ever since the hotline 2 fan film!

[@NoFriendsClub]

Wow thank you so much for sticking with us for so long! We made the Hotline film when we were in college. Got two more films we're releasing soon so stay tuned :)

[@syro2008]

that was amazing,kudos to everyone involved yall did great

[@grave7948]

This was fantastic, well done to everyone involved! I would gladly watch a feature length film of this!

[@ecowa9745]

Oh my god, you guys dit it, you adapted my favorite piece of media into live action, i always thought that it wasn't possible and you madlads dit it, thank you so much

[@vladislavboiko8393]

Hey, never thought i would see a film about darkest dungeon. Nice job my dudes. Keep it up and good luck!

[@mihaigrosu4617]

Just from the title i subscribed, liked and hit the bell

[@Lou-Lou87]

Damm this is good. I love the costuming and the all around fidelity. Also man-at-arm dying of stress is peak darkest-dungeon experience❤❤

[@grand_lizard5663]

Awesome. The atmosphere was so thick you could cut it with a knife. Bravo!

[@agustinxd3monroy69]

Fantastic work

[@Roman-1w5]

Impessive! A brilliant confluence of skill and purpose.Great work and amazing result.

[@Aik_Hoschman]

This was such a great watch! The shot composition was really good, samw with the costumes and the fight. Truly felt like how Darkest Dungeon would play out in real life

[@knightmare4134]

What a magnificent display of skill and filmmaking. This is truly amazing! Costumes, the choreography, the lighting, set design, plot, and camera shots/cuts are all superb!!!

[@jakubsternik9047]

The raw strength of youth may be spent, but his eyes hold the secrets of a hundred campaigns.

[@alm2458]

This is beyond incredible! I couldn't take stop gushing at everything I saw, especially that Necromancer costume, it's SO good. I hope you had as much fun making it as I did watching it, it was great.

[@NoFriendsClub]

This was probably the craziest and most involved thing we've ever done so far! Everyone on the team killed it but especially our art department went above and beyond to bring the world of Darkest Dungeon to life.

Damn.. This work tears to my eyes, Great Respect. 👌

[@Sharkblock]

Insane quality! Costumes look so good!

[@Vorold]

This is so good! Awesome job, guys!😎

[@303octavian]

Great work! 😅 I always thought Darkest Dungeon would make a great televised series!

[@theepenguini4767]

Loved the video! You captured the aesthetics very well and I loved the lighting! Also highway man having his mask covering his nose was appreciated, drives me nuts in the game 😂

[@ender_arrows682]

Probably has the scarf over the nose cause it slides off way to easily otherwise. I've tired, it doesn't work.

[@konst80hum]

Excellent adaptation of the game material.

[@badnewschris8002]

RedHook studio's needs to see this

[@olcaval]

Awesome costume designs!

[@kwicepolski1221]

Amazing work this is kinda what I Imagine darkest dungeon too looks like. And nice nod to Man at arms lore

[@MrFiremagnet]

Dude how much I missed this type of stuff - fan movies with passion. Great job!

[@NN-ru9md]

This shouldn't have went as hard as it did. Amazing work man

[@chesteryolo7058]

Plague doctor in rank 2 and MAA in 4 is madness. There truly can be no hope in this place.

[@patchpatch4008]

That necromancer costume is on point!

[@dustydasugo8240]

You all did an amazing job capturing the energy, vibes and themes of what I love most about Darkest Dungeon and barely said a word. Not easy to do!

[@Ezechiellydian]

Ruin has come to our family...

[@devilsgamer4419]

Let this get the attention of red hook cuz this fan film was FIRE MAN!!! 🔥

[@lesterabinguna341]

LEGENDARY ALGORITHM PULL LES GOOOO

[@KaliFraser]

So cool! Loved seeing my DEMAS friends in it as well

[@Vetaul]

Goddamn, the man-at-arms must have done bailiff duties somewhere in the Bohemian empire! Where else would he get his hands on such a well forged mace? Jokes aside, is love seeing the Darkest Dungeon community making amazing things like this and would love to see the DD universe on the big screen some day.

[@xXFlorianXx10001]

This should shows people the strength of a rank 4 Man at Arms! A Defender of the weak, here to Bolster the ranks, his eyes hold the secrets of a hundred campaigns! Edit: Comment for YT algo and props for the quality of the video! Felt authentic and awesome, even tho the armor was too shiny for the dungeon ;)

[@Marse913]

I never thought I’d be seeing a darkest dungeon video of this high quality made in 2024. Good job yall 👏

[@purpseven1854]

Very well made. Accurate costumes and you’ve captured the atmosphere nicely.

[@arlodurham2040]

Holy crap, this is AWESOME! You guys did absolutely amazing. I can’t believe this isn’t more popular. You have earned your most venerable bread this hallowed day.

[@mauzilus]

This is wonderful! I love the close up angles, they make it seem so claustrophobic and uncomfortable, it's really well done!

[@rikee3]

Nice work

[@offensivelyalive7774]

A brilliant confluence of skill and purpose!

omfg the production value is amazingggg

[@pipp972]
