Trinkets and baubles... Paid for with RUclips memberships. Episode 2 is already available for members! Click here to join: ruclips.net/channel/UCCG6qI8XjyjUNgZ8jlJp_wQjoin A lot of people responded positively to the idea of a return DD1 series, and I'm nothing if not a people pleaser, so let's do it. Bloodmoon, no mods, no whammies.
DD1 Hamlet OST is my daily Sleep background sound. Can't really find any other OST that can build you into the Mood as good as this one. DD1 is such a Beautiful game.
It's different that's for sure! I feel like both games have such different game designs and philosophies that the management is shown in a completely different way. I feel they are both appropriate, but yeah I prefer the first system
Yeah I agree that they are different and good in their own way. However, I do prefer the stagecoach and DD2 in general. I enjoy DD1 for the first 5-10 hours but then it just gets a bit too grindy for me. I can definitely see why others prefer DD1 though! 🙂
Yo, this is hype. DD2 has never captured me the way DD1 did, and I'm stoked to see you return to DD1, it's always a great time to watch. Thank you and hope you have fun with it!
It's great to see you back in Darkest Dungeon, Baer. You're right about DD1 and DD2 being different experiences; I agree that one isn't necessarily better than the other, they're just different kinds of games. I give RedHook credit for mixing it up and trying something different with the sequel, but I'll always love the DD1 experience.
First came to Baer's Twitch and RUclips channel when he first played Darkest Dungeon. I screamed and cried at the last episode. I bought the game but could never bring myself to play it because it brought back all the memories of the heart of the world and all the terrible, terrible things of the old... old road.
Came across this new playthrough by accident, thought maybe it'd be a one a week upload so didn't start watching (As I'm a sucker for full games) and a few days later, BAM! Five huge episodes! Consider me intrigued!
I feel you man! Just got back into DD1 myself and it was a blast! Killed the Apprentice Necromancer but I lost a Graverobber that has Eagle Eye. Not to mention that my Leper and Crusader combo are just wrecking monsters! Feels good to be back indeed!
I love DD2, but the feeling of loss in it just doesn't compare to DD1. Each run not really affecting the next makes a lost run feel like no big loss. DD1 I think everyone's been 20 hours in and had your ocultist wiff on a major heal, party dies, gold lost, bye bye trinkets. It's a much more invested experience
Baer! The doggo and I have been watching your dd1 content before bed for almost a decade now, so happy to see you coming back to the estate. Keep up the good fight, my thoughts and prayers for you and any hellions you pick up this playthrough. Much love
Hot damn felt the urge to watch darkest Dungeon again. Haven't been around here since the release of colors or madness, good to see you still kicking around 6yrs later
Also, some friendly advice: always always focus on stress damagers versus pure damage unless on extremely low health. It does depend on party composition, especially on Bloodmoon, but stress is far more costly to the long term health of your campaign than losing a hero outright. Heroes can be retrained, replaced, but the cost to repair their minds and get rid of negative quirks is so so expensive early on. Prioritize their mental health so you can invest in them long term.
The trick to Shambler is to keep bleed/blight pressure on it while exterminating its minions with extreme prejudice. Of course, it is extremely lethal for level 0 heroes no matter how good your tactics.
hey baer, i've been watching for a long time and you've helped me get into DD1 and Night in the Woods- two of my favorite games of all time. considering what this series is, i just wanted to say thank you for all the entertainment over the years and to keep it up :) (edit i am 4 minutes in and reynauld is afflicted, we're so fucking back)
I only saw the notification today so I'm late to the party, but I'm really excited how the journey goes this time! Baer and DD1, an unmatched combo for me, besides maybe Baer and Spelunky (1 or 2).
Thank you for opening up the option of Memberships on RUclips so that I may join The Baer Pile given I'm more of a night owl and VOD dependent. The idea of early-access VODs as a perk is quite nice! P.S: If I may ask, I have a community based question or two? At previous times in comments since my return I've referenced the years away from watching any form of YT or Twitch type of content. And a couple personalities once associated have been on my mind. Whatever happened to friend of the NLSS and formerly Roundtable Podcast, Nick a.k.a. "RockLeeSmile"? Similarly, Tom (or Tam) a.k.a. "SLEEPCYCLES"? If I'm not mistaken & are remembering correctly it was Tom/Tam during a long ago Twitch livestream how I ultimately discovered you, Baer. Looked on Twitch couple weeks ago and seen he's been inactive for 2+ years. Hoping he's ok. Nick, too.
Will start watching and liking these, wanted to wait for a few to fill up before watching XD Between you and Odd doing a Xcom playrhough, Im a happy gamer haha
I thought that the last campaign you played, just before DD2 came out, was going to be your last campaign for good. Thanks to god, I missunderstood something, and you came back to DD1. Welcome Fanatic. or Baron. or just....BaerTaffy \o/
is this me or it seems that when reynauld stelas something via cleptomancy the loot is "boosted" to piss player off more? everytime i see that happens, loot from bag is like amazing in comparison with the rest of the bags and other stuff

Good luck on this hard campaign!
When he said "Hey everyone. Welcome back to DD.", the nostalgia was palpable.
There were those who doubted he'd ever return...
But look who's laughing now!
Rear that in the voice of Wayne June.
Theres nothing quite like Wayne June,man....
Facing a shambler with level zeroes? Ah Baer, you really don’t learn your lesson
Considering it's Blood Moon as well, that's just pushing him so much closer to the death limit
@@mothichorror446 In that context, it’s impressively stupid. A full quarter of his death limit on a fight he had very little chance of winning
@@ryanrobins7526 "impressively stupid" is my home court
I don't know man, he nearly had that damn fight.
Bear: i dont think well be playing another DD1 playthrough
Also 🐻: F It one more time!
DD1 Hamlet OST is my daily Sleep background sound.
Can't really find any other OST that can build you into the Mood as good as this one.
DD1 is such a Beautiful game.
Am I the only one who thinks that the town mechanic in DD1 is far superior to the stagecoach of DD2?
It's different that's for sure! I feel like both games have such different game designs and philosophies that the management is shown in a completely different way. I feel they are both appropriate, but yeah I prefer the first system
@@Jograu1Yes, both games definitely work well with their mechanics, I only mean to say as you say, I prefer the first.
Yeah I agree that they are different and good in their own way. However, I do prefer the stagecoach and DD2 in general. I enjoy DD1 for the first 5-10 hours but then it just gets a bit too grindy for me. I can definitely see why others prefer DD1 though! 🙂
Dd1 and dd2 are very different games imo. Ones a roguelike but the others also a roguelike, but trust me I'm right
Everything is. DD2 is just a bad game.
Im genuinely astounded how Im consistantly able to fall in love with this game everytime it comes back around.
"It's like riding a horrifying eldritch bike." That's for sure
27:26 "A kill is a very effective stun, i have heard". BaerTaffy 2024~
hooo boy, I've found you years ago playing DD1 and I'm so happy we're back :)
Same, he was probably the first livestream I watched way back in the dd1 EA days lol
DD1 was how I found your channel, and you're obviously entertaining in everything you do, but it's nice to see you get back to it.
Oh here comes the nostalgia. Watched the PBD playthrough for breakfast most mornings when I was still in HS. Good to be back.
Ah, it's like coming home!
A filthy, diseased, bug-ridden hoarder's home, but still home all the same
The way the intro reads, just gives chills and deserves all the chef kisses.
Yo, this is hype. DD2 has never captured me the way DD1 did, and I'm stoked to see you return to DD1, it's always a great time to watch. Thank you and hope you have fun with it!

I just started playing again as well after rewatching your worst darkest dungeon run. Stygian has been kicking my butt!
I've been addicted to this game for nearly a decade. It's an absolute masterpiece.

Consider me intrigued!
Me when baer stopped at the Shambler trigger... "DON'T DO IT BAER, DON'T DO IT!!.
Been following you from Australia for years, could never catch the Twitch streams, glad to give you some support Baer!
Thank you!
brother you have no idea how exciting this is
Holy crap!! That weakening curse in the arena hits for fucking FIFTY STRESS?
Seems like a stress build would be easiest way to play the circus.
There's a reason why Man-at-arms tends to win just by yelling
@@mothichorror446No surprise there.
* Laughs with sacred blade and inspiring cry *
I feel you man! Just got back into DD1 myself and it was a blast! Killed the Apprentice Necromancer but I lost a Graverobber that has Eagle Eye. Not to mention that my Leper and Crusader combo are just wrecking monsters! Feels good to be back indeed!
Good to see the old (better) DD back on the menu
I remember watching so much of your DD1 content. Glad to see you back for another ride.
i appreciate that you stuck with that corroded start with reynauld testing resolve
New Baer DD1 run? Freakin' love it!
I love DD2, but the feeling of loss in it just doesn't compare to DD1. Each run not really affecting the next makes a lost run feel like no big loss.

Holy! Is this a dream? I've been waiting for since I discovered you channel!
That neuron activation when shambler altar
This video deserves a like just because you returned to the Hamlet.
Hot damn felt the urge to watch darkest Dungeon again. Haven't been around here since the release of colors or madness, good to see you still kicking around 6yrs later
*puts datpleb into Gambling Hall with the Skilled Gambler perk*

Never change, Baer's luck.
I wanna ride an horrifying eldritch bike
back to the old road
31:27 Oh, i know that guy. He failed 90% stun on my abom and surrender😂
Damn, I remember watching you play this years ago. It's what got me into watching your videos and buying DD1
O man I am so happy you are doing another playtrough. Awesome stuff!

(edit i am 4 minutes in and reynauld is afflicted, we're so fucking back)
That thumbnail art is gorgeous!
the music in DD2 is great, but there's something special about DD1's soundtrack
its called soul
After DD2... this is a welcome surprise.
Baer and DD1! PB&J of youtube!
(Legit the DD1 vids got me jumping into the prereleased version og the game back in the day❤)
This game is timeless. Welcome back
I was hoping you'd make a return to DD1. It's so epic. I hope DD3 goes back to its roots
I started to follow you when you were playing DD1 back in the day and now were back, and I still think DD1 is way better than the new one
Returning to your roots. I love it. The Pile is Pleased.
I only saw the notification today so I'm late to the party, but I'm really excited how the journey goes this time! Baer and DD1, an unmatched combo for me, besides maybe Baer and Spelunky (1 or 2).
"It's like riding a horrifying Eldritch bike." Lmfao
Saw Baer put the torch into shambler altar, immediately skipped to the next town phase.
I've got a big stupid grin on my face I'm so excited for this, man
Return of the King.
The best DD Player ever is back
Personally, when I fought the shambler, I thought we would win tbh
Haven't been this stoked to see a freakin Baer upload in a minute, thanks man!
It’s awesome! Never seen gameplay, but excited to watch it Baer!
HELL YEAH!! I found Baer thru DD1 so this is very nostalgic lol
Oh no, baer has forgotten not to touch the books!
Once again, we arrive on that old road.
So happy about the return to DD1
All basic lands are mountains
The prodigal baer returns at last . . . to the darkest dungeon.
BOYS! It's nostalgia time🧸
The great Baer returned! Just like the ancient murals predicted! Praised be St. June!
I'm so hype for a dd1 campaign! I hope you'll keep it up. Love from France ❤
Fantastic love to see a fresh DD1 campaign

Much appreciated! I haven't spoken to either of them in quite a while, to be truthful, but I hope they're doing well.
@@BaerTaffy You're welcome and many thanks, Baer. Understood, I was just curious. Same here.
2:37 "The old road will take you hell"
Was that typo always there? Smack dab in the middle of the intro like that?
Typo, my dude?
@@DanMarston117 I don't understand your question.
(If you don't see the typo, the "to" from the voiceover is missing between "you" and "hell")
Will start watching and liking these, wanted to wait for a few to fill up before watching XD Between you and Odd doing a Xcom playrhough, Im a happy gamer haha
Wha..? This came out of nowhere, but it´s greatly appreciated^^
I thought that the last campaign you played, just before DD2 came out, was going to be your last campaign for good.
Thanks to god, I missunderstood something, and you came back to DD1.
Welcome Fanatic. or Baron. or just....BaerTaffy \o/
I saw Baer use a bookshelf curio. Did he forget the old adage, "Fuck books..."?
Excellent choice of character for the thumb B
Been a long time since I've seen the Hamlet. Thanks for the Nostalgia Baer ❤
ah yes, once more into the fray men! once more !
That Cirus fight. What DD Is about!
Of course Reynauld is a stress eater. That bastard.
im super excited for this baer. i much prefer this game over the second one.
New thumbnail and title, "A mod pack?" I thought to myself. Oh, just vanilla? Hell yeah, more DD content is always welcome.
is this me or it seems that when reynauld stelas something via cleptomancy the loot is "boosted" to piss player off more? everytime i see that happens, loot from bag is like amazing in comparison with the rest of the bags and other stuff
YAY! New series. I remember the very first one. Was it 10 years ago now?
The king has returned
Let's go Bloodmoon challenge!
About time we revisit the first game. Let's gooooo
Though I like Darkest Dungeon 2, I ❤️ the OG Darkest Dungeon.
IT HAS BEGUN!
Well this is pretty exciting
1:51:59 I would buy that… Mario cart, but DD1
Welcome home Baer :)
lets goooooooooooooooooo We are so back baby
How many hours do you have in DD?
Real DD1 thugs go lights out on first mission
How did you know?? I had just finished binging NL's Solem Vow playthrough.
