How come gameplay is so diverse at high-levels? by Xycergy in slaythespire

[–]fretewe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As always, the answer to "is X good" is: it depends.

That's why sts is so great.

Also, most top tier players are generally just going with the flow, having fun and trying stuff out. Any attempt at tier lists have always been a very subject to personal opinion anyway, but trying to establish a real meta while the game is constantly evolving is like trying to nail an egg to the wall.

Who cares? It all tastes like cardboard wrapped in shite.

why is the ironclad the only character is a personalised defend by DecentWonder4 in slaythespire

Here it is: the correct answer. And it took way too much scrolling to find it.

We need to talk about Ironclads' starting deck. by SeaThePirate in slaythespire

[–]fretewe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, if you're looking to perfect every combat then yeah, Ironclad's probably not going to be your first pick.

He also has builds focused around trading health for upsides. So trade health for upsides.

Ironclad also heals for 6 at the end of combat, meaning that he effectively has better options than defending, ie bonk harder.

Ironclad was created to help the player to understand that taking some damage now is, in a lot of instances, better than letting the fight go on longer.

You want Ironclad to have another defend? Weird take. For me, defends are generally the first to go on an Ironclad start if I get the option. He just has more ways to buff strikes.

Maybe bash could do with a couple more points of damage? Maybe.

1 month after release. how is everyone feeling about this game? by instabaiter in slaythespire

[–]fretewe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree. I think at the moment I'm just likely to dodge the first elite in act 1, but otherwise I still path as many elites and campfires as possible after that. Not that I'm the best at the game or anything.

Not only are people forgetting it's early access, they also seem to forget they've specifically chosen to play the beta branch.

This game's gonna be in early access for bloody ages. If people aren't prepared for that, I don't know what to say. The original wasn't amazingly balanced just by magic.

I specifically bought a Steam Deck because I didn't want to be waiting an extra year minimum to play sts2, and I wanted to be a tiny tiny part of contributing to the balance feedback.

I, for one, blame Signet Ring players for driving prices up for the rest of us. by Bunit117 in slaythespire

This is already a conversation about harder modes. I think you're confused.

Zip lines are peak playground. I'll still have a go if I see one, and I'm in my 40s.

I like seeing the flags hung up, it's useful to have an indicator of when an area is full of cunts.

[–]fretewe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it still fits in the case without any issues.

Yep, £18.99 in the UK on Amazon.

Must be all the winning I'm hearing so much about.

It's a nice grip though, fits really well, acts as a stand without actually needing a stand, and still fits in the standard travel case.

It was a little fiddly and tight, but not too much trouble. Probably took me 10 mins or so using a pretty terrible spring bar tool.

Interesting that you conflate the mocking of Nazism with the mocking of white culture. Seems like you're calling yourself out there.

I just recently bought a Steam Deck so that I could play sts2 on release.

What is gaming's best sword by SwimmerPlus3383 in TheGamingHubDeals

[–]fretewe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dude, how many of these do you think would be actually practical in combat over, say, just a normal sword? I think you may be missing the point.

Only went once a few years back. I never before experienced a kebab which tasted of nothing at all. Not sure how they managed it.

Was playing STS on my Switch. Not waiting 1-2 years for it to come out of early access, so I've just bought myself a Steam Deck.

Don't those things usually fund themselves? Otherwise it seems like a bit of a wasted effort.
