If the player wishes to do things like re-skin characters, the player has to replace the files in the main game directories. Presumably, after the files of the playthrough are updated through the auto-saving feature, the playthrough would forever be free of the mod’s content.Īt worst, the playthrough is permanently borked, at least until the mod packages are restored (and they have to be restored with the exact same directory names too). For example, if the player deletes the mod for an unofficial adventurer class, any adventurers of that class are gone from the playthrough. At best, the game warns the player that some content files are missing and anything that is associated with those files are wiped out. The player could delete the mod packages, and attempt to launch a playthrough. The player cannot just uncheck the tickboxes for the mods that have been activated the game warns the player that it is not possible. It is not easy to revert a playthrough to what it was before the installation of a mod. This permanently changes the playthrough. Like the official DLC packages, mods are content modules that the game will fetch data from, and incorporate into the files for a playthrough. MODS – PERMANENT CHANGES TO A PLAYTHROUGH: However, there are some ramifications to consider. This tricks the game into thinking that they are DLC packages, but more importantly, it reliably recognizes the mod packages.Īfterwards, it becomes a matter of checking tickboxes in the list of “DLC” for a playthrough. I have discovered that the easiest way to install the mod packages in the non-Steam version is to place them in the “DLC” directory instead. By following their instructions, the player would be making files that are practically similar to the files in the official DLC packages. ![]() I do have a work-around for this, but before that, Red Hook Studios’ instructions on mod-making would have to be mentioned. This may or may not work, at least according to my experience. People have stated that the localization processes that make files compatible with the game have to be repeated for the non-Steam versions of Darkest Dungeon. For the DRM-free versions of the game on the computer platform, such as the GOG version, having the mods work is not as simple, mainly due to lack of technical support by their creators. In the Steam version of the game, the mods have to be placed into the “mod” directory of the game, which is simple. The mods that have been made by the fans of the game run the gamut in terms of comprehensibility and user-friendliness, as is typical of things made by fans. The Musketeer’s place as an official class is still not certain at this time of writing, she has yet to get any backstory comic. Her official description was later changed to clarify that she is a class of her own, but the description of her being a re-skin was retained, which can cause some confusion and consternation. This means that the player would be practically getting another Arbalest into the Stagecoach, and another set of trinkets that would have been useful to the Arbalest but cannot be used by her. Yet, she is not a mere aesthetic replacement she is actually a functional class of her own, albeit identical gameplay-wise to the Arbalest. She has a different backstory, different personality and different looks, compared to the Arbalest. The Musketeer was initially described as a “re-skin” of the Arbalest she has practically the same skills and class-specific Trinkets with the same effects as those of the Arbalest. In addition to remarks on the Musketeer and how it is actually implemented in-game, there will also be remarks about the mods that have been made for Darkest Dungeon. ![]() This review article is not entirely about the official (and free) Musketeer DLC. This is super helpful for players who want to complete the game but usually struggle, or for fans who want to replay without raising their stress levels as much on their next playthrough.By Gelugon_baat | Review Date: August 15, 2018 There are plenty of mods out there made by the fan community to help make the game easier and more forgiving. However, in the meantime, fans of the franchise can replay the original and even make it a little easier on themselves with a mod or two. Updated January 13th, 2021 by Meg Pelliccio: Fans are still excitedly awaiting the release of Darkest Dungeon 2, which is due to launch in early access on the Epic Games Store sometime this year. Check out these mods that lighten up the Darkest Dungeon. Certain gameplay mods are readily available and can make the game feel more subjectively fair.
