A new UX report on Darkest Dungeon 2 and its UI compared to the original

4 weeks in the making, I’m so proud to finally unveil my study, Simplicity and Readability in the Darkest Dungeon:  How the Token System of DD2 Displays Information in Combat. Based on survey responses from 205 DD players, this study looks at the new token system implemented in Darkest Dungeon 2 and how players feel this new system impacts their ability to read information from the game. It also focuses on feedback as how these tokens compare to the accuracy/dodge statistics in the original DD and if this removal of RNG was a welcome or unwelcome one.

This project has been a source of passion for me and I have to thank the fine members of the Darkest Dungeon community for offering me their time and support. I encourage you to click the link above or go to my UX Reports page to take a look for yourself.

Thank you again to everyone who took the time to take this survey or read this report. I’m Doctor Jules, and have a nice day!
