One time, in a riekling cave, I found a pile of like, 40 lusty argonian maid books. I had to ditch some treasure, but I safely secured each and every book, and added them to the skull pile behind the bookshelf in breeze home.
@@The_OwO_ShogunI know *exactly* what you are talking about. I was so dumbfounded I just stared at the pile for a few minutes before frantically trying to burn it down.
Ooooo, a book! Imma read that! **seconds later** HOW COULD SOMEONE MAKE SOMETHING SO VILE, I WISH I DIDN'T READ THAT!!! I must keep my curiosity under control... Meanwhile Audrey: ...bro that's the good shit. I'm honestly into inflation!
I like quirk curios. Any bad quirks I can just therapy away. Any good quirks I can roll through until I get a Hot to Trot on Hellion or Luminous on Leper or On Guard on Houndmaster!
Remember kids, burning books is such a horrible waste of knowledge that it'll drive people instantly to the brink of insanity, but burning _scrolls_ is not only perfectly fine, but also cures mental defects! Mental defects like, you know, being tone deaf, being calm, or believing in science.

Why is it always a damn Occultist that seems to get those Quirks? It happens to mine literally every playthrough; it's... both hilarious and a little disturbing. What kind of Eldritch beings did he come in contact with?? Apparently dark hexing powers weren't all he got from that experience.
Now I have an image in my head of a skeptical-looking vestal talking to a desperate-looking occultist. "No, really! See! The tentacles! There's definitely *some* kind of higher power!"
ok, here is the idea. You just walked into an abandoned tomb, fought skeletons and cultists, you know from bottom to top that this whole place is cursed. Of course, if you live in such a hellhole, you will have one book of another that works on human's desires. In this case, it's a hentai doujinshi.
Yup, that is just another hilarious aspect of how Darkest Dungeon rolls. A few of the treatment quirks are the same. "Enlightened" a negative? Okay, DD.
I mean it makes sense in the game's world's logic. Being a nymphomaniac keeps your mind away from the eldritch horrors that could cause you stress and being scientific makes it so the *real* (as in they actually happen) effects of faith are less effective on you (although it's a shame it doesn't improve the effect of things like Battlefield Medicine or other science-based heals)
I purposefully keep Nymphomania locked on my Crusader since it's pretty unobtrusive 90% of the time and hogs the space a more damming disorder could take. Almost a boon.
Bro touched kamasutra for the first time. Not as bad as one of my characters that had quirks deviant tastes (not allowed in brothels) and i think nymphomania (if this is the one when character can only relieve stress in brothel)
Tentacles And You, A "Guide" and "How To" Occultist: Excellen! I shall be able to enhance my abilities toncall upon the elderich domain-! ... **DARK CROWN EFFECT** HORNY!!!
The books/bookshelves and Bas relief in Cove are actually a great way to farm positive quirks Make sure to only get them after you've cleared the map to avoid fighting with negative quirks/stress nuke
@@korunick you're welcome! Also, if you want to remove negative perks (including the pesky locked in ones) You can try bringing medicinal herbs for eerie coral in Cove Torch for pile of scrolls in Warren Interact with confession booth in ruins Or holy water for eldritch altars which can be found everywhere! Great if you wanna save money and time removing negative quirks
@@korunick As i know its not depending from anything, just pure % chance of getting good/bad trait, without influence of anything else on it and no matter when you doing it, its just % check of event outcomes
@@user-ch2kt8mz4b Maybe I misunderstood the other comment, then. Still, they made a good tactical point to wait until after the mission is finished to check that sort of curio, so that any negative effects don't interfere with the mission.
@@korunick A yes, read second time more carefully, he was talking about "no fighting with negative effects", not about "fights have influence on taking effects", my bad) P.S. random Collector/Shambler/Fallen Heroes encounters in already cleared dungeons on backtracking galleries: "Are we jokes for you?"))
Given the Ancestors predisposition to tentacles this does not surprise me in the slightest, probably imported some of that grade A stuff from the Smugglers straight from whatever this universes equivalent of japan is. Also OF COURSE ITS THE DAMN OCCULTIST
Ik this is old, but I remember when Dismas (Yes, Dismas) got both Nymphomania and Love Interest in the same dungeon and the same hallway with two series of books.
We are in the middle of a mission and the guy stops to read a book. He should've stayed at his damned liberal arts university if he liked reading so much!
"Huh...let's see what was on the cover."
*The Lusty Argonian Maid*
"...huh."

I got that from one of those cove rocks like disc things
I remember when my Occultist cured curiosity negative perk just by reading one of that damn books cuz of this curiosity negative perk.
i guess the book was so bad, he regrated being curious lol
Ooooo, a book! Imma read that!
**seconds later**

"Curious, how do tornadoes work?"
(Reads 6th grade science textbook)
"Oh well that explains it. Neat."
His curiosity was finally sated
My man fucked around, found out and was like "alright I should cut my losses there"
That one time my Abomination contacted syphilis from interacting with an animal corpse 💀
Naaah man thats crazy
Bro took r/cursedcomments literally ☠
blud tried to fuck a dead animal
And my Crusader got it while scavenging a grave 💀
Yo, this is why you use medical herbs, to not contact any kind of disease, you don't know who the animals ate.
Occultist: “Hmm, What Wisdom Lurks within these pages?”
Pile O’ Books: *Sexual Self-Help Book.*
Occultist: "Hm. Fascinating."
Vestal: "can I have those later?"
The unspoken rule of Darkest Dungeon, never touch the books or bookshelves.
Or that glass cabinet that is always trapped
@@krewoliskii that's what keys are for
@@mothichorror446 you can also use a shovel and save the key for a secret room

Me: *Googles Nymphomania*
Oh damn! He found the Ancestors Stash of magazines!
Playboy magazines no wonder the ancestor had those honestly
he really did have a lot of "conventional extravagance", so much he began to tire of them
"Horniness waits for the slightest lapse in concentration."
-The Ancestor probably
"D-did people really enjoy these monster tentacles that much?"
Knowing this game, that would be a *positive* quirk.
**Happy Occultist sounds**
"Hey, Alhazred, what book was that? Last time I read a book I got Syphilis."
"...I don't want to talk about it."
"I can do this with the tentacles I summon as well? Well then... I think I can experiment with this!"
Those books were so cultured that even holy water has no effect.
At least it wasn't syphilis
Because apprarently books can give you STDs!
That only happens when the pages are *"sticky"....*

**looks at the end of the book, sign by slaanesian deamon prince** oh thats why
Yes, Inquisitor. This comment right here.
Once one of my heroes got Rabies from a book...
What if the book just made him really angry, and the doctors were like, "Yep. Rabies. 2700 Gold."
a VERY immersive copy of cujo, perhaps?
It was some of the best hentai the world has seen.

If it added a stress reduction...
@@korunick Oh god, no... XD
According to DD2, his patron/source of power is The Shambler
The eldritch being he communes with is Slaanesh
@@dylanstacey6782 I had to look that one up! Ha!
He learned to wield the tentacles in new ways
All I'm saying is those were the estate's equivalent of Playboys.
I mean you'd be surprised that erotic books existed back then.
*The Hero reads a most unsetteling passage..*
It must've belonged to a late adventurer who was snuck up on and killed while rubbing one out. No one deserves to go out like that...
He read the legendary "The busty goblin maid" novel
This just popped on my timeline, my rule of thumb "Books are bad" lol
A month or so ago, I had one give my jester Scurvy somehow... I still wonder.
The way Scurvy is treated like an infectious disease is very odd...
My friend had a vestle get syphilis from a book once.
Must have been the Karma Sutra.
Nah my vestal stopped believing in god after reading one of the books
Now I have an image in my head of a skeptical-looking vestal talking to a desperate-looking occultist. "No, really! See! The tentacles! There's definitely *some* kind of higher power!"
Never read books bro. I’m giving u a warning now.
It's almost always a bad idea, at least in this game.
It's the fact that his interaction sprite looks so intrigued is what gets me
LMAO--yeah!
My shield breaker got DEVIANT TASTES cured after looking at some coral.
I remember my plague doctor getting syphilis from a book
Bro got the sauce
good thing you didn't get the black death instead
"I opened the books, and a vast, writhing carpet of fleas spilled forth..." Yeah. Ew.
one time my highwayman got diarrhea from reading a book
funny how RUclips recommended me this video and this happened PRECISELY today while I was playing
LOL All hail the mysterious algorithm! Thanks for the comment!
And then he goes to hospital where they somehow remove it again.
ok, here is the idea. You just walked into an abandoned tomb, fought skeletons and cultists, you know from bottom to top that this whole place is cursed.
Of course, if you live in such a hellhole, you will have one book of another that works on human's desires.
In this case, it's a hentai doujinshi.
Yeah... I remember my character got sifilis from these books, so....
I saw the title and thumbnail and *immediately* knew
I didn't even have to see the video to knew EXACTLY what perk he'd get, holy shit hahahaha
Nymphomania is a positive quirk but being Scientific is bad.
Yup, that is just another hilarious aspect of how Darkest Dungeon rolls. A few of the treatment quirks are the same. "Enlightened" a negative? Okay, DD.
cant talk your way out of the darkest dungeon, but you can most certainly fuck your way out
Faithless is bad.
"You know, i just don't believe in god."
"Heretic! Go touch grass NOW!"
I mean it makes sense in the game's world's logic. Being a nymphomaniac keeps your mind away from the eldritch horrors that could cause you stress and being scientific makes it so the *real* (as in they actually happen) effects of faith are less effective on you (although it's a shame it doesn't improve the effect of things like Battlefield Medicine or other science-based heals)
@@Guille2033 Actually really good points.
Wait until you get the books that give you Syphilis…
This game really throws so much wildness at you.
blud did not just use holy water on a bookshelf
If you dont touch EVERY SINGLE THING your playing the game wrong
* *sinister Slaaneshi laughter* *
I purposefully keep Nymphomania locked on my Crusader since it's pretty unobtrusive 90% of the time and hogs the space a more damming disorder could take. Almost a boon.
Yes! Managing negative quirks and leaving the least destructive ones to become "permanent" is really good for managing expenses!
Nymphomania is a positive quirk. I mean it, literally.
Dude, every time I interact with these books, always rise to 100 the strees of my mercenary
Bro touched kamasutra for the first time. Not as bad as one of my characters that had quirks deviant tastes (not allowed in brothels) and i think nymphomania (if this is the one when character can only relieve stress in brothel)
Nymphomania increases the brothel's stress heal. That's it.
Tentacles And You, A "Guide" and "How To"
Occultist: Excellen! I shall be able to enhance my abilities toncall upon the elderich domain-!

**DARK CROWN EFFECT**
HORNY!!!
🤣 And then everyone else in the party gets very suspicious and uncomfortable looks on their faces.
Or the Cleric going to a brothel for stress relief, another classic xd
bro read the most fire doujinshi
Looks like he found the fanfiction stash
The books/bookshelves and Bas relief in Cove are actually a great way to farm positive quirks
Make sure to only get them after you've cleared the map to avoid fighting with negative quirks/stress nuke
I had no idea that it mattered when you activated the curios. Thanks for the helpful info!

@@korunick my guy discovered his waifu in that book
"How to become a coomer for dummies"
Well its not syphilis, thats a plus.
it´s just a really good vintage stash
I guess he found a copy of Fifty Shades of Grey
he read a wattpad fanfic
I will never forget the time my men at arms got syphilius from reading a book
i need this book
Book...😮
And books 🤨😏 *siphilis just to touch a book*
Bro wtf
search histories
Ha!
Book? 🤨
Kamasutra
Teh fucking comments are killing it, man! 🤣
Well, there are certain rules, didn't you know?
We are in the middle of a mission and the guy stops to read a book. He should've stayed at his damned liberal arts university if he liked reading so much!
Maybe it's field work and he's trying to get his doctorate. 😁
read a book and get weak grip quirk
like was it really THAT scary???
🤣 Ha! The overused phrase, "literally shaking" comes to mind.
It was porn.
Playboy.
I mean, that's the implication, but the effect is so... extreme.
l0l
Wow, RUclips actually recommended me this video.
