Risk It All For The Dreaming General? // PART 2 // DARKEST DUNGEON 2 Full Release 1.0

[@ChristopherOdd]

I went back and watched this boss fight in the early access live stream we did and NOW I REMEMBER. No spoilers, but if something like this happens to us again (not learning or figuring out a mechanic) let's call it a TAPROOT moment ok?

[@davidwoomer8490]

I’m looking for episodes for the darkest time for the name, the next round character star

[@inked-qt]

Didn't the taproot have invulnerability?

[@ChristopherOdd]

Yes, but apparently we can target it when roots are dropped and they would recede. I chose the stubborn approach and WON

[@sparta117corza]

@@ChristopherOdd YOU CAN ATTACK IT TO DROP THE ROOTS!? REALLY MISLEADING FIGHT I THOUGHT IT WAS A STRAIGHT DPS CHECK, IVE BEAT IT TWICE AND LOST A MEMBER EVERY TIME.

[@ethanhinton4549]

@@sparta117corza it (and all the Confession bosses except 4) are half puzzle fights, so remain alert!

[@Wilfinja]

The hit animations or SO satisfying to me! This is also the game that I tuned in to Chris's livestream for the first time! I gotta say I'm excited!

[@Ghost0fTheNavigator]

A standing ovation for you on that one, Odd. I was absolutely certain you were about to squad wipe, and by the skin of your teeth you pulled it off. Well done.

[@danielserrao5276]

Can't believe he pulled through. Amazing.

[@johnlerhman8948]

im sorry to say that Odd, but we need at least 2 episodes per day

[@danreyes6354]

Agreed!

[@TheFluffasaurus]

The people have spoken

[@ThatsOk83]

It’s settled then

[@DK_Gaming84]

I couldnt agree more. Watching this makes me just want more

[@danreyes6354]

@@DK_Gaming84 same! Great game + excellent commentary = good times!

[@Z-.869]

Make sure to focus on hero shrines to get more variety for each run Also hero goals are a nice boost to your candles, so when you find you're able to do one, make sure to do so

[@nohands7126]

I have been so excited for this play through since i binge watched your darkest dungeon series forever and a half ago

[@ICantThinkOfANameB]

So apparently, you CAN attack the vine even though it says "invulnerable." I think that's how you get the vines away from your heroes.

[@handtomouth4690]

Naw, they totally just threw an invulnerable enemy in there with no purpose just to look cool.

[@kyleeversfield8276]

Yeah the fact this is the second time he has done this fight and didnt figure it out was kind of infuriating. Why is their this enemy here, its called Tap 'Root', and uses a attack call Creeping 'Vines' and leave my with a vine/root like status that is killing me. Better just ignore it, and not attack it at all it can't be important...

[@veevoir]

@@kyleeversfield8276 I'd say it is impressive he actually managed to brute force the general fight :D Usually squad wipe would happen quickly if not attacking the Root.

[@sparhawk797]

6:50 I think it's your negative quirk (Braggart) that caused the taunt

[@PRC533]

It did

[@swe_nurse8121]

Kinda disappointed this episode wasn't called Fear and Loathing in the Tangle. But other than that this series is great! Can't wait to watch the next episode!

[@Cothfotmeoo]

It took me a while to understand those tokens that say "if *certain* item equipped", it's talking about combat items. For instance I had a gauntlet that increased bleed chance and piercing if a serrated item is equipped and I found out that caltrops are considered serrated items so as long as my character carries caltrops the trinket will be active. For that ring I'm not sure what items are noxious but I assume something like blight grenades, a combat item NOT SKILL that causes blight. Well played!

[@exequielgaleano9947]

When everything starts getting sweaty, things become ten times more exciting than they already where. Probably I'm not completely understanding everything, but that's not spoiling the fun and enjoyment really. So I'm really wanting to watch some more of this already!!! 😁

[@tokendedguy]

I'm so glad that I get to see you play this game because it brings the worst out of me. Go get it!

[@thatguycaz]

Love your band

[@tokendedguy]

@Caz I deserved that.

[@BrianGuilfoos]

I haven't played this in a while - I see some new mechanics since last time - but it's still as brutal as I remember. So challenging. When things start going poorly they go REALLY bad really quick. Sweaty palms.

[@shep6774]

Love your darkest dungeon runs. Very much looking forward to this series

[@shamirferoz4472]

This was such a great video man! I love Darkest Dungeon and you’re a pretty great content creator. Keep up the good work and looking forward to your stuff :)

[@chabachoo4298]

That Boss fight was intense! I'm really excited to watch your future playthroughs

[@theoncousland4587]

Looking forward to this new series. I was a little apprehensive about the new direction Darkest Dungeon has taken but so far it looks intriguing.

[@ctrlaltdelicate]

I think those random tutorial popups for the Working Fields are a bug when the game tries to show you something new and it defaults to that for some reason. For example at 15:21 I *think* it's supposed to tutorialise you to the map and all that it includes so I'd suggest you to check if you've missed something as there's some new stuff you've never seen. I also think it was supposed to tutorialise Loathing to you once you got your first pip.

[@Lowkeh]

Well put! And, thank you! It was kinda driving me nuts that he never thought to at least scroll through and check.

[@jeffreyboulton9299]

illustration and sound design so badass! thx, great vids Odd!

[@lewandowski1313]

So stoked to see the full game and how you play it compared to the early access!!!!

[@davidwhitfield6025]

Well you were luckier than i was with the first boss, although I didn't encounter one until after my second Inn which proved fatal. My two ladies hated each other and every time they attacked the Boss (in my case the Sprawl Librarian) the other would attack her. 2 of my long range attackers literally killed each other and the two guys melted down and got burnt down by the Librarian. Which was a pity as the previous tow battles leading up to the Boss had been a breeze, When your party starts hating each other its no joke and I found it really hard to turn it around. Good luck going forward.

[@StephSinalco]

Damn ! I'm extremely jealous of you beating the general on your first encounter :D I was wiped by this boss on my one (and only) try. Well played.

[@czerwonyelf]

He got super lucky as literally every blight worked. If as much as two would get resisted, he'd have a TPK. But that's the game, sometimes you get lucky and sometimes you die no matter what you do ;)

[@plectro3332]

That was a very exciting episode. Can't wait for more!

[@Puddleglum83]

Well played. A close battle for sure.

[@Eirael]

Good that they tone down the relationship, in the early beta there was a relationship trigger almost every battle

[@eternal8559]

46:03 "This should be a dodge" Enemy processed to do 19 crit

[@Kreence]

Make sure when your at an in you eat FOOD items. It gives u a health boost untill you arrive at another in. There are also buffs than u can give your hearoes. But food is the most important.

[@Peterporker92]

Just got this on steam, massively helpful and well done, that boss took me a few goes 😂

[@TheAkosombo]

Really like the changes to DD1 so far. Definitely a lot to take in but well implemented

[@Hekateras]

Holy shit. What a ride. And what an interesting boss design!

[@FriendofDead]

He did exactly, as he did with this boss as in his first play through. Ngl - kinda funni

[@hansjorgkunde3772]

I think the root become attack able if someone is strangled with it. This removes the strangle root.

[@thatguycaz]

Honored to sacrafice myself for.... candles...

[@MyViolador]

You can hit the root behind to make the vines retreat

[@CrazyKoenie]

Damn this was tense. Hope DDII comes to PS5 soon. Will be keeping an eye on your vids for learning purposes

[@GameMakersGuild]

Thanks for the awesome episode :)

[@wesleythomas7125]

Seems to me that trinket that makes you weak if 1st would go well with the one that turns weakness into block

[@FrankieMankie]

Why is the narrator so quiet during combat? Where did all the epic quotes go?

[@Dragooncore]

Seductive second episode!

[@Forien]

17:14 "I don't know why this pops up" Uhm... to teach you something new, like hazardous roads? And second time it wanted to teach you about Loathing. But you probably keep pressing arrows or something on controller so it keeps scrolling (no idea what you are doing, it wasn't scrolling like that for me, but I wasn't using controller and wasn't pressing anything when driving). Hint: to move stagecoach you only need to tap W once, no need to hold it or press any other key. Tap S to stop it.

[@veevoir]

Nope, it is a bug, there should be another tutorial popping up there but it defaults to this page.

Nice one Odd. I'm not sure I like the trinkets in this game. The disadvantages seem too harsh for me to even consider using them personally.

[@lucianobruzzone537]

Has Red Hook given a hint about consoles versions? Big fan of DD1 for PS4 and now waiting for DD2 on PS5

Can Doom koi come out to playof a run? i feel like the name fits the Vibe.. Doom would also work lol

Does someone know the source picture of the thumbnail?

[@extragooey813]

Five mastery points before the first inn? Is that a new change? I played early access recently and it only gave 2 before the first inn.

[@Kreence]

It give you 5 in the FIRST confession(boss) They did that to help new players.

[@extragooey813]

@Prince Dagpin like when your profile is brand new? I've played Denial many times it was always 2.

[@Kreence]

​@@extragooey813 no they change it. On 1.0 release. It will always gives you 5 on denial now. They did this also on the latest patch on early access.

I wonder why games like this arent on tablets and phones. I wouldnt mind playing it on my Ipad, but when Im on PC i would much prefer to play a shootiing game.

The devs did a great job of keeping the DD feel but changing the game dynamic entirely. I'm buying this game

[@swagatasarkar8083]

2 episode plz!

[@joshh7819]

Im not sure why I have such a hard time watching any darkest dungeon 2 runs. I loved darkest dungeon 1 runs and series. I just don't seem to get into this game.
