I'm finding that paladins, mages and alchemists are far more powerful than the other non-cursed classes. My nobles and rogues are feeling more 'cursed' than my maids and cows. (Though, the "Pet" cursed class seems to be remarkably weak even for a cursed class.)
Sometimes whenever I rescue an adventurer after she gets captured, she'll be stuck in the "Faltering" state even in the overworld and it won't go away until I heal her in combat. I can work around it, but it's weird, inconvenient and just doesn't make sense.
The fact that grappling enemies can rearrange my party through Immobilized has created some frustrating situations where I start a battle with an immobilized character in the front position, only able to attack from the front... then my ranger gets grappled to the front, and there's no way to get either character back to a position where they can act. (Or to move anyone else, for that matter, because an immobilized character in the middle blocks nearly all non-grapple movement.)
You can equip that item and nothing its like a icon item only nothing really happens when you equip it but is has a description it might removed or it is just mod that you install but i didn't know how to use mod in certain game like this.
Turning speed into damage seems really fun, and besides, I've definitely felt a bunny cursed class is needed since months ago due to all the bunny gear in the game that floods earlygame!
And it's nice to see cursed classes getting some subclass options for more variety and replayability in gameplay. Here's hoping we get some mega-milkers cows soon lol
Really, really needs across the board upgrade cost reduction. When it takes multiple repetitive runs to upgrade one building one early stage, that's a problem. I would recommend outright halving the cost of upgrades or more. This game really doesn't have the intricate combat of Darkest Dungeon, and to then take far longer for less significant upgrades? Not great.
This grinding issue is further exacerbated by the style of the map and inability to rerun areas; while I do like how it incentivizes reckless behavior (via prioritizing clearing higher difficulty stuff if it would eat the same squares as lower difficulty), it does also mean that losing/crippling a squad could have permanent consequences. Contrast with Darkest Dungeon, where losing a squad hurt but you could always redo low-level dungeons until they were back up to a reasonable level. As a stopgap, perhaps an option to reset the map so that people could keep their town upgrades without needing to restart the game altogether if they end up stuck?
The grinding is my primary complaint, though. It really is egregious.
I agree with a lot of the criticism here. It's definitely a sour point for me just how slow earlygame and midgame is, as someone who loves everything about DD.
Darkest Dungeon can keep playing forever on one save if you wished. After the map was updated here, this seems impossible in this game, which is a damn shame and means you eventually get softlocked if you lose your raised parties and have only medium-high difficulty dungeons available, basically guaranteeing further losses every time due to hit rate and crits/luck being much less of a factor here (and crit chances you're basically unable to meaningfully affect at all besides the token that guarantees ONE crit unlike DD where tactics and overpreparation can minimize RNG or turn it into an advantage)
Perhaps the game could use some difficulty settings...? DD has them, and while Radiant difficulty gives minimal bonuses to dodge and doesn't do much for the moment-to-moment dungeoneering besides that, it still immensely reduces grind in the hamlet section of the game.
Here there's definitely more potential for more than that. I feel like way more people would enjoy this game if there were optional or perhaps unlockable settings to, say, generate dungeons on already explored squares (and raise their max limit), or make crests removable through some high cost, or make the levelup/goal restrictions on bringing raised girls to easier dungeons more lax. Something for more casual players who just wanna make a guild with a bunch of cute girls.
Hope this will come in some future update, or at least through fanmade mods. But seeing as there's no actual place to even get mods for this game besides joining a discord server (which most people will avoid), mods addressing the game's flaws wouldn't be ideal.
I ended up trying out the Dev's previous game after discovering this one, and I noticed that tedium and artificial difficulty (AKA "difficult for the sake of being difficult" without any actual depth, challenge or meaning to it) seemed to be a big trend in the game design there. But it's nice to see the improvement in that regard now that I'm playing this game! Even if there's still a ways to go.

Personal development goal "Start combat at rank 1"
I don't understand and don't know how to complete it, rank is nowhere to found in combat UI. Neither guide nor tutorial explain it.
When in combat Rank 1 is the right most slot and Rank 4 is the left most slot
I see, thanks.
Thought it's some skill level or dungeon difficulty.

My ideal party is a paladin, a mage, an alchemist and a maid. (Yes, maids are that good. Especially if it's Homura.)
The Quests for "have 4 elite X" are showing "3/4" to me, but I only have one elite in my entire guild. I think it's counting Veterans.
It is
Can you add more dogs that the player can interact with or tame? I would also like impregnation content if possible love your work have great day
How ddo you get favor?
Do request they tend to give favor or gold
Where is it in venture map?
It isn't. It's on the Quests screen, which is one of the buttons in the lower-right corner of your base.
Is there an easy way to increase exhibitionism?
it goes up by taking damage to your adventurer's armor, another way is to simply equip them with Pet gear
Is this a bug or a feature?

That's a bug. Thanks for reporting!

Is it a bug when you turn your character into a doll and the item icon change into search icon?
It is a bug, the search icon happens when the item is undefined. Do you have any more details about this?
You can equip that item and nothing its like a icon item only nothing really happens when you equip it but is has a description it might removed or it is just mod that you install but i didn't know how to use mod in certain game like this.
Bunny class!!!!
Finally.

Whoa, is the number of dungeons on the map finite?
If so... well, you can still get unlimited elite dungeons by intentionally getting someone kidnapped, then immediately rescuing them.
No. There are infinitely respawning dungeons on the map.
