    I do not have the free time nor the maturity to handle this release at this point in my life.

    Well, it is what it is. Guess I’ll have to buy the game and get addicted again.

      I’m right there with you. Hopefully mobile for 2 is better suited for phones, makes it easier to find the time. The first one is designed for tablets and makes reading and playing cards difficult.

        The game is so weird. I have zero desire to play it. But when I do, it refuses to turn off.

        I would definitely play it on my phone if it works well.

              Jeez, get on that now. It has replaced StS for me. Over 230 hours in a month…

                Looked it up. Seems cool. I unfortunately have a mental block when it comes to poker. For some reason I’ve never been able to learn it, no matter how hard I’ve tried.

                  If you have the hands to hand (pun intended) then it’s all good. You don’t need to play it as you would normally.

                  That’s fine. Poker is just a theme. And it’s got a guide for poker hands, but after a couple trips to the item shop you can usually throw everything about poker out the window.

            On The STS discord Caseyyano admitted that Balatro is changing him. So we’ll see If there are any references to Balatro. I’m pretty sure there will be at least one Joker artifact considering how many references there were in STS 1.

    They’ve migrated to the Godot game engine now, haven’t they? I’m excited to see how they’ve got on with it. I wish they’d to a conference talk about it.

    I don’t have actual stats on this but I’m fairly certain I’ve put more hours into Slay the Spire than any other game in my life across its various platforms. Pretty psyched for this one

      I’m fairly certain I’ve put more hours into Slay the Spire than I have raising my children.

      Also pretty psyched for this one.

    HELL YEAH! I hope they have a simultaneous release on all platforms too. I prefer a mobile version now a days. I bought the original for PC, switch, PS4 and mobile! Such an amazing game!

    2025 might be enough time for me to get a heart win with ironclad and watcher. Not sure I’ll be ready by then tbh.

      You got this! Remember that STS rewards picking the option that immediately helps you, instead of trying to over-engineer some dream deck.

          Congrats! Yea A1 is easier cause you get more elites which directly equates to more relics.

          Time to climb the ascension levels now?

    Very excited about this! The new character looks really cool too!

    The Steam page also has some gameplay screenshots. It looks surprisingly similar to the first game, but as long as there’s enough new stuff I don’t mind.

      Yeah I loved playing the first one! Hopefully there’s enough innovation to warrant a full sequel rather than just new content with essentially the same mechanics. Here’s hoping!

    orb dude doesn’t seem to be in it so that’s already a huge problem for me

      If that was possible we wouldn’t have public education, we’d just sleep for the first 20-30 years of our lives so we could work weeks long shifts at McD’s.

    I was hoping they’d been working on a different type of game; I’ll still try this but I think I may be a bit tired of the formula. Hoping it is different enough!

    Why does a card game need an animated trailer? (I have not played the game nor watched the trailer. I will do neither)
