About

Video games have come a long way since their inception: graphics have improved, game mechanics have evolved, and soundtracks have deepened, but foremost among them are the changes to the stories they tell. They have evolved from their simple origins of saving the princess or beating the bad guy into unique experiences that rival the best Hollywood movies or best selling novels. Squatch Gaming Official is focused on telling those stories to audiences that enjoy those games, and maybe to people that wouldn't give them a chance otherwise. Take some time to check out some of these stories, and we guarantee you'll be surprised at their depth! Channel picture designed and illustrated by Dan Orton.

Video Description

Listen on Spotify! https://open.spotify.com/show/4UbJMp6MfTX8OmPQhjmCCn?si=wQ59Lh9eRSa67RfeJy7xcg The story of Darkest Dungeon has to do with the player's mysterious Ancestor and his single minded pursuit of learning of and experimenting with the taboo subjects of the world, work that led to the release of monsters into his Hamlet, and to a confrontation with a Cosmic Entity that caused him to lose his mind. It's told by the man himself, who recounts the details of his descent into Madness in various soundbites throughout the game. With the addition of the Crimson Court and Color of Madness DLCs, which expanded upon the lore of the game, the Ancestor's dealings with the forbidden are quite extensive, so let's go through all of the information that we learn of the Ancestor's actions as well as what we need to do to clean up his mess, so we can see the story of the Darkest Dungeon in full. Note: the video doesn't cover *EVERYTHING* in the game (I don't talk about the Shambler or the Collector, for instance), but it should cover everything important to the story. Hope you enjoy!
