On the plus side the game uses the same combat mechanics as the first game but better looking. And the story narration is fantastic.

The down side is the moving coach. It just feels like the devs thought did a town lets ah.... The coach is hard to control and there the graphics are just not good.

Also instead of having all the crafting and training buildings every thing is done in a really cramped way.

Worth a buy still but only if you get it onsale.

Oh, and there's no freaking Stream Workshop!!!!

It doesn't take long to improve at the stagecoach. Still, it disappoints me. I told my friends it was turn-based.

Uh, turn based is always a positive in an RPG.

Yes. I told my friends it would be turn-based and then it has the real-time stagecoach driving, making me a liar. I wanted it to be turn-based.

I don't mind the coach since it's not actual combat, Just wish it was a bit more controlable.

I've been playing Darkest Dungeon 1 a bit (about 20 weeks into a game) . It's pretty good, what gets me is they push you into the deep end kind of fast. You can't take easy dungeons forever - they disappear leaving more and more difficult dungeons. I guess it's a good balance because my heroes are getting better and better. Maybe it's scary? Definitely not a beer and pretzels game there's a lot to command and keep running.
