Hey folks, it's been a while :)
So steam disabled direct depot downloads via the steam console over a year ago. Since we need a specific build (Steam Build 24839, the one before Butcher's Circus) to use the Multi-Client glitch, we have to resort to a more complicated alternative for now. Please read every step of this guide carefully.
-
You need to aquire .NET Core from microsoft's website (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core), make sure to download the correct version for your operating system (Windows x64 for most users, but please check this).
-
Download the DepotDownloader tool from github (https://github.com/SteamRE/DepotDownloader/releases) and extract its contents.
-
Open the folder containing "DepotDownloader.dll", type "cmd.exe" into the address bar of your file explorer and press enter to launch the command line from that location.
-
Now you can enter the commands to download the downpatched files for the version you need. Please note, that you need to use your steam accounts username and password in the command. Also the account used must have purchased Darkest Dungeon on Steam.

dotnet DepotDownloader.dll -app 262060 -depot 262061 -manifest 3000664813989802002 -username <username> -password <password>

The Shieldbreaker DLC
dotnet DepotDownloader.dll -app 262060 -depot 702542 -manifest 4293317018221017969 -username <username> -password <password>
- After you finished downloading, you can find all files in your DepotDownloader folder under /depots/depotID/
Copy all of the contents of the depot folders into one folder, and you are done!
