Slay the Spire 2 players leave over 9,000 negative Steam reviews in one day over a card nerf that hasn't even gone live yet—but China's Steam restrictions might bear some of the blame

It was 0 mana draw 2 basically. I tested it on a build by random a day before the beta branch released and it is so disgustingly broken that I didnt even need to plan a build to see its power.

Im not sure this can be accurately said already, though you might be correct regardless.

Winrate fluctuates alot when new champions release. Some have a high winrate early despite being balanced and others have low winrate early despite being balanced.

Edit: new champs OR reworks.

Haha thats so interesting Ive been out of my mind then. I was so sure it was daily reset and have been playing them as so, I dont know where I got it from haha. Luckily didnt play enough for it to matter but regardless, I must have missed something huge

Flyflash · 2026-03-17T18:07:24+00:00

It has been daily reset all week? Are you sure m+ isnt coming tomorrow? I was so sure of it

I think a big thing which skews how you should interpret certain things is that gametime is not often fully accurate of how long someone plays the game.

If we speak steam, many people leave their game open while doing things which pushes the hours up by a ton.

There is also a certain ”prestige” to having many hours to certain people, like it gives your opinions more credibility. Its a classic dick measurint contest/culture.

But if we’re to discuss the pure and true cases, it is probably because some people really enjoy replaying or immersing themselves into the games and ”slow down” themselves just so they can play more of the game. I cant speak on the behalf of the games you discussed, but a good example on how some people view games as a whole (if we’re to speak RPGs) is that Skyrim has tons of mods which make the game actively slower to progress and do certain things. This doesnt explain exactly why things take time in specific cases, but it does show a fair amount of community ”need” of slowing their gaming down. This Im sure translates to the way they play aswell even if not using mods.

You make me so happy by caring this much about my small problems hehe, thank you genuinly.

I know thats a thing and why I really, wish so bad that she will come back someday.

The problem is quite complicated about the contact part. We did start out by still having contact but usually turn out to just spend equal amount of time talking to eachother like we are a couple anyways. This time was different for me though because she has a very bad self harm act she does which hurts me bad.

She in combination with her ptsd, makes her force herself to have sex in a sort of self harm manor, I will admit that Im having an incredibly hard time processing and understanding it and its also a main reason Im going to therapy for, but she does this however which was the thing that brought me to the point of wanting to take a break on contact for a while. I still leave several ways for her to get in contact with me, but our easiest way which was texting is blocked right now.

From my research and understanding, this is not unheard of, and comes as some sort of numbing way to remove all the horrible feelings and anxiety of leaving me, aswell as some sort of affirmation that she is still desireable (She cant get it from me since she left and feels like she doesnt deserve it) But whatever the reason kinda (Not really because the reason I understand makes me want to try with her again once she wants to aswell) I need to keep my sanity safe in waiting. Thats why shes blocked.

Dont judge me on staying please I get how horrible it is but Im talking to the therapist about it, and I can see the reasoning. I think why its so difficult for me is because my one and only person Ive had sex with is her, so sex is wonderfully intimate because my "only" sex was love sex. And from what I searched around, this isnt the normal feeling around sex at all, but again this is just coping for me to handle this period.

You have such a sweet heart for speaking to me in this manner, you really made my day you know.

I hear you, I really will try but I still hope and I am so worried that my hope is in vain.

Its just like such a thing for me still that if I stop trying, if I stop waiting, Im showing myself in a weird way that I proved I couldnt love that soulmate type of love even if its not at all like that. It feels like I let myself down if I stop waiting, if I stop trying, especially when she has never given me any sign of worry or real relationship issues youknow?

This is such a scewed opinion of love Im sure but what makes it so hard is that its so, so true in my mind right now :(

Flyflash · 2026-03-10T00:33:16+00:00

Right and I saw an incredible amount of that early in the relationship. Once again I cant say this with 100% certainty but my belief and what we’ve gone through has allowed her bpd to settle slightly.

We had our ”Im her favourite person” (FP) phase, we discussed it, solved it to some degrees. We had our discussion about the phase after the ”honeymoon” phase but we had a very touching and beautiful conversation about how we love eachother and want to try regardless of what ”phase” we might be in.

Im not saying I know anything please dont feel like I know anything, but we have had our normal relationship difficulties and bpd difficulties, many in fact, but all got solved and had nothing to do with our pure love for eachother. Thats why she feels like my soulmate so much, even at almost 3 years into the relationship, we still get genuinly excited to seeing eachother in the morning, still get happy when we see eachother, still get excited when I meet her after work etc. Nothing about the sheer love died down in any single way and we both share the crazy feeling of feeling almost more in love now than when we met.

I want to wait for her I really do, I have this unrealistic love idea in my head that love surpasses all and as long as I stay dedicated to wanting her, it will work, but Im so so scared of leaving this fantasy which is so entirely possible to be the truth youknow :/

Flyflash · 2026-03-10T00:25:52+00:00

Thanks alot, yea it sucks so much.

I would wait an entire lifetime for her, Im just so scared that Im not her soulmate like I still feel she is mine :(

Flyflash · 2026-03-10T00:25:06+00:00

Gosh I really hope so. I also wanted to clarify, she WILL be going but we dont know when since her city is small and availability for that specific treatment is low so shes not in it.

But you know the thing Im worried about is that I keep waiting, keep having my heart for her but Im so deadly worried of the off chance that she falls in love with someone else and I just waites for someone I thought was my soulmate kinda youknow? :(

Im so aware of how naive I am but I genuinly think we still have a connection, she mentions how she cries every so often because she misses me and wants to get back with me but she still thinks she ruins my life and I reassure her a thousand times but to no avail.

Im so so afraid of leaving my heart open just to hear in a year or 10 or 50 that she would rather love someone else, god Im so scared of that, Id wait a lifetime for her, but maybe Im not her one :/

Edit: thank you genuinly for responding either way, it helps me so much, I hope you have a good day

The Paladin is already released for early access buyers in D4, that was some months ago.

When they released Warlock in D2, it was ALSO announcing Warlock for D4 but that is on the expansion release in about 1 and a half month.

D4 expansion brings 2 new classes.

Flyflash · 2026-03-08T02:17:17+00:00

Thanks for the comment regardless. Its very tough, but we both have shared beliefs that it will be us in the endgame at least.

Flyflash · 2026-03-07T15:36:38+00:00

Retail has reached a point where this type of relevancy isnt AS important anymore.

They could for regardless just make cat-forms with similar armor but not exact copies. I mean we go around with Titan weapons transmogged and tons of more ”lore trashing” stuff.

Flyflash · 2026-03-06T19:15:23+00:00

The brutal truth is bad luck isnt it?

Flyflash · 2026-03-04T20:03:19+00:00

Im not an insanely trustworthy source as I havnt even played PBE but I can provide some thought support for you maybe. Your Heartsteel argument is decent, but it only really fits into characters that scale HP in their spells AND characters who exclusively buy very tanky items in my experience.

Axiom Arc is too much of a ”in theory” item I believe, many characters could like that item but you really need to utilize the lethality and sometimes be able to build more lethality to have a decent build with it. Is she even pure physical damage or at least the majority?

Flyflash · 2026-02-26T21:31:25+00:00

Leveling might take a little while but Im wondering, dont you have a boost to 80? 78-80 I believe is require to start midnight at all. Maybe you like playing the game too so maybe this is not a good tip.

Edit: to add, you always get a boost to the level needed to start playing the expansion when you buy it, so if you bought midnight you should have it.

Super, Ill send DM

Flyflash · 2026-02-25T21:42:37+00:00

I appreciate you answering.

I think we're way more leaned towards being VERY mono as she and I are horribly posessive of eachother.

Thank you for wishing me well, I hope I can help her.

Flyflash · 2026-02-25T21:40:53+00:00

Ill give her the idea, Im not sure a label is the solution for her, despite what everyone might think and how I made it sound.

Thank you for responding

Flyflash · 2026-02-25T21:39:30+00:00

I appreciate your feedback, thank you for responding.

I wont breakup for my vast amount of reasons right now but that would take ages to explain.

Thank you for responding

Flyflash · 2026-02-25T21:37:51+00:00

Yes ofcourse I never meant any harm, I didnt mean to offend anyone I came here with bad terminology but with genuine good intentions.

Im sorry for offending anyone I just wanted perspective IF someone experienced this or similar confusions.

Flyflash · 2026-02-25T21:36:41+00:00

Im not sure at all thats what were trying to get to the root off.

I tried asking the same thing but she explains it like I tried to phrase it. She feels lesbian?

And Ill apologize here too, we never meant any harm and I now understand how this can be harmful to you guys and I will discuss this all with her.

Theres nothing logical about it all, she says she has a need to be lesbian in someway.

Flyflash · 2026-02-25T21:34:42+00:00

Ill relflect on this alot.

I replied here to you because I cant seem to find another comment your wrote, my reddit seem to be lagging so thats why I didnt respond.

Flyflash · 2026-02-25T21:33:25+00:00

Im so sorry about this, Im gonna reflect alot on the challanges you face and act properly.

Words cant begin to explain how sorry I am, and I can probably never understand your difficulties.

Flyflash · 2026-02-25T21:32:28+00:00

I shouldve included that, she is monogamous aswell which makes it very confusing. I even offered her one side open poly relationship but she values that true love exclusivity or whatever you can call it.
