Recent reviews by Bernana

I typically don't write reviews for games. I play the games I like and if I find the game not to my liking, I move on to a new game. I am writing this review to give my perspective on the recent propensity to 'review bomb' games because they changed the game mechanic that was allowing you to win every run you assembled your combo on. I've spent some time translating some of these negative review and they all seem to have the same flavor: "I can't believe you made my infinite combo not work anymore! [Childish personal insult aimed at the people making the game they have dumped 100 hours into]!"

And while I recognize that the function of reviewing a game is to share your opinion on the game, reverting to personal insults against the people that are making this amazing game because you can no longer easily sweep through your A0 runs with the same broken combo for the tenth time is not only childish, it is regressive and can negatively impact the decisions made by the developers going forward through, wait for it, EARLY ACCESS! If you don't like the direction the game is balancing towards, then maybe its time for you to put STS2 down and move back your gacha slop that you can dump your hard earned money into to win.

Game development and balancing is extremely challenging and Megacrit still manages to do an amazing job moving their game in a direction that can remain entertaining and engaging, while not becoming overly repetitive. Are some cards underpowered and questionable to pick in any deck? Yes. Are others so strong I find myself grabbing them any time I get the chance? Also yes. Each run of STS2 has unique deck-building challenges and that is what keeps me coming back time and time again. This is a game for people who enjoy the challenge of deck-building and variance in each run, not a big number simulator that you can recreate on a whim.

Keep up the good work Megacrit. Don't let these immature insults stop you from continuing work on this masterpiece of a game.

P.S. New Neow relics are sick.

A literal black hole for your time. One of the true hidden gems of indie games. Can't wait to see what they come out with as they continue to develop this already full game.

In depth and very interesting. A huge world with plenty of things to discover without the game holding your hand.
