The 'Dark and Darker' controversy primarily revolves around the game's 'High Roller dungeons' system. Players had varied reactions to the High Roller dungeons, especially concerning the entrance fees. Some players enjoyed the higher entrance fees in the form of High Roller antes, while others preferred having free access to these dungeons. In a recent update, the game developers, Ironmace, decided to increase the ante to 50 gold, which meant that the content wouldn't be swarmed with certain types of players, but it also restricted access for some. This change, among others, led to mixed reactions from the community.
