I can attest to this, the RNG is front loaded and will stay exactlly the same if you pick the same options.Maybe I'm the only one who really likes the asylum? I go there on purpose. Though, when anything has bad timing, I reload to an earlier save. If the save is recent enough I may need to take evasive maneuvers. If you follow the exact same path then the same thing will definitely happen. You'd think everything was 100% random, but it definitely isn't.
Now is the Asylum the worst dungeon? Maybe. There are 4 "Badend" dungeons i can think of(not including the Blindfold spiral i recently found my self in) the Asylum, the slave dungeon, Edens cabin and the Wolf cave, each are going to cost you atleast 2-3 days worth of time to escape. But some leave you better off then others.
The Asylum has 3 ways out, 2 are longish one you can do the first(or second) day. If you attack Harper when given the prompt in one of their sessions and get thrown into a cell, you can go to the Tenticle Plains and escape to the forrest through a door you can find. This will leave you in a rough state. The second is to spam Truma reduction which might take you 3-5 days. And "the great escape" where you can get Harpers key, dump gas on everyone the hoof it out of there, but is involved and uses many highish skill checks and also takes at least 2-3 days. The Asylum does need work especially the Tenticle Plains(it's very empty considering it's size with only 2 doors and 1 item). But can leave you fresh if you spam the Truma reduction angle.
Edans cabin while not bad in its self can be horrendous it you get locked in it's patten. You can either live there by sucking up to Edan and getting the syndrome over the course of a week, which will give you many benefits(like having a much better time escaping the next time). Or you can weaken the leash and bolt, this can only take a day but if you get caught(or pass out) while trying to escape the forrest you will be dragged right back to try again after the next day. And this will leave you rough.
Wolf cave is the same as Edans cabin but with wolves. You can suck up to the wolves and get the syndrome( better if you have at least Deviency 2) and this i think goes off of how much the Pack likes you which you can set up in advance if you adopt a mating position to previous forrest wolves. Might be a few days but you need that Deviency 2 to make it short. Otherwise it's dig a hole and forrest your way out which will leave you rough.
The slave dungeon might be the worst one i think, with 3 ways out the easiest and quickist being an A(or S) rank skullduggery check and a walk through the forrest(All of these have a forrest option i just realised) but 2 long one weeks worth of tourture ways out. Either wait it out and eventually get loosed in the Forrest or Dig your way out through a hole for maybe a slightly quicker(4-5 days) way out. All options leave you worse off.
I should mention that all of these have some great content involved in some way, all are grindy as fuck(this game basically) and all are bad and can get worse and are in need of more content when it's their turn to get some. Thoughts?
