Darkest Dungeon is a gothic roguelike role playing game released by Red Hook Studios in 2016, known for stress, permadeath and its commanding narration. Wayne June voices the Ancestor, whose lines comment on victories, failures and deaths throughout each expedition. Executed with impunity became one of the most quoted lines because it captures the game's bleak tone in a few words. Clips of the narration spread through gameplay videos, streams and edits, and this line remains popular with players marking ruthless wins.
