    I started playing DD2 about two weeks ago and soon after I started, I was searching for this theme on the Internet, but it was damn hard to find, because it exists in many different versions, with different intensities, and here I am, with this amazing tune delivered right under my doorstep! Thanks a lot

    Absolutely fantastic! One of my favourites by far! Driving after dark with this blasting from the speakers is an unforgettable experience. 4:35 always gives me goosebumps, I wish I could learn to play the guitar just for that part, so that I could keep repeating it over and over.

      There are many more things coming. MANY. I believe they’ll be new stuff dropping over at the next four years! Some of the DLC will be bigger and will have a small fee but like the original game, you’ll be able to grab all the DLC and soundtrack in an affordable package.

      Sweet! I didn't expect such a private question to get that kind of answer! I loved the Shieldbreaker DLC in the last game, so if Red Hook is looking for fan feedback, I would recommend more stuff involving the sands of the East, mysterious desert warriors, and nightmares from the past.
      Anything you guys make will be good, though, I'm sure.
      I guess I have a bit of a dilemma then. Do I get Darkest Dungeon 2 now, or do I wait a while to get a discount on the pack?
      I suppose time will tell. Either way, your work absolutely makes this series, Stuart. I loved the music in The Binding Blade teaser. I assume that that was you again, so here's some more well-deserved congratulations!

    That riff at 4:34 is incredibly memorable. This song overall puts me in a nostalgic mood every time I hear it. It reminds me of playing Torchlight 2 back in 2012 because Matt Uelmen's composition also used acoustic guitar and had a similar oppressive gloomy mood.

      If you go on my BANDCAMP page you can listen to track 11 the-winding-valley-complete. It contains all levels of intensity (flame level). PowerUp Audio would have seamlessly blended these depending on you progress. If you buy the track the quality is superior to the Bandcamp free preview version.
