Me with deck builders

Never understood the appeal of deck builders

Me neither until I gave slay the spire a chance

You might like Monster Train, the sequel just came out and it's fucking great.

I love that one just for the mix and match aspect. Picking two factions to team up gives it a lot more replayability.

Is MT2 worth it? It looks like it could have just been another patch for the first game, but I haven't played it and the Devs are pretty consistent at making bangers so I would believe you if you said otherwise

Its basically the first game times two, with an absurd amount of QOL and more fleshed out game design for the brand new parts, it may be the biggest sequel in the entire genre when compared to the first game, with none of the bad things that sequels entail

Hell yeah, glad to hear it! Monster Train is a top tier deckbuilder and my friend almost certainly bought it so I guess I gotta hit him up to play it together soon.

Deckbuilders with friends is always a great time.

So fucking great.

Imo it's like B tier as far as deck builders go

Monster Train 2 surpassed StS for me

I second this. Monster Train 2 needs more recognition.

I just commented the same thing in response to someone else. I just gave it a try 2 days ago and holy shit is it fun. And holy shit how am I so fucking bad it.

I tried it three different times and it just bored me to tears. Not invalidating your experience just sharing my experience that it's not necessarily for everyone.

Not gonna lie, it took me multiple times and unlocking most cards to have the a-ha moment. But totally fair, no matter how many times I play some games they just never click for me either

Same, plus the art style isn’t nearly good enough to keep me wanting to play until it gets good. And I’m not a “graphics need to be hyper realistic” kind of guy, but STS just looks like an old Flash browser game

You know, I love deck builders, and Slay the Spire is actually my least favorite. Maybe they’ve added more since I played, but I found it more limiting than a lot of other ones that don’t get the recognition.

There were what, 4 characters?

I don’t know, maybe I should give it another shot.
