A completely random fact I found out relating to Darkest Dungeon is that the reason you can possibly die from horror, as seen as the characters who die from extreme stress, is that your body could generate excessive amounts of adrenaline to a lethal amount, causing the heart attack.

[@charnor2727]

neat.

[@clarepaulsen3330]

I recently started playing Darkest Dungeon. This’ll be a great guide for what not to do! Thanks RT!

[@runtergerutscht4401]

Don't skip on food or shovels, you neither want to find yourself foodless on a hunger check, nor in a level with the only way being blocked and yourself out of shovels. Do not rely on a 66,6% chance of not dying, always assume a hero that is on deaths door will die if you do nothing and act accordingly. Do not visit the wiki. On your first playthrough, discovering and figuring everything out is half the fun, fun you rob yourself of by opening that wiki page and instantly knowing what works and what doesn't. And lastly, don't forget that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer

[@KarpetBurn]

Biggest tip I've learned is it's just like a Pokemon Nuzlocke: Don't get too attached to your heroes, because even that one character you put all your best stuff on will probably die eventually. Don't be afraid to sacrifice a hero to save the rest of the team if the situation calls for it, because there will always be more heroes arriving in the Coach.

it becomes clear as you play the game that doming himself in a fit of sanity was probably the nicest thing the Ancestor had done in a couple of decades for perspective we are talking about a guy whose reaction to seeing a hot lady trying to get him alone was to plan to murder her out of boredom, then make wine out of her blood and serve it to his guests at his next party, and that was BEFORE he started worshipping the hell-mouth on his property.
