This visual indicator appears in the Embarking screen. With the realization that mere people can attain powers far beyond mortal by paying the small price that is their humanity, the lord poisoned all of the nobility with wine spiked with inhuman ichor. Prior to the onset of his obsession with the esoteric and occult, the Ancestor is a bitter man that loathes his station and the decadence of the so-called upper-class who purportedly serve him.Ī chance, almost-fatal encounter with a formerly human would-be paramour had awakened the dire ambition of the lord.
The titular Crimson Court is what has become of the nobility that was once overseen by the Ancestor. Nonetheless, it is not entirely a waste of time. Examples include the backstories of the adventurers, more complexity in the gear system and dungeon-delving that is not run-based.Īll of these are only partially realized in the expansion, and held back by overarching design goals that have set the game in stone. In the base game, there were glimmers of potential that were overlooked, or at least not built upon, by Red Hook Studios. Such is the case with the Crimson Court, the first official (and price-tagged) expansion to Darkest Dungeon. Sometimes, a package may have something that someone wants, but it also has things that are undesirable but are unavoidable, because they are built into the things that are good.
