00:00Slay the Spire 2 is getting loads of bad reviews on Steam at the moment.
00:04But why?
00:04Well, players have decided they hate an optional balance patch.
00:08Some players are truly offended at the new beta patch version 0.100.0, which is an opt-in
00:16patch.
00:16Through the public beta branch for the early access sequel, those who have chosen to test
00:21the patch will experience a range of balance adjustments and a new phobia mode to make
00:26the scares less scary in Slay the Spire 2.
00:29Slay the Spire 2 devs responded to the flurry of bad reviews, explaining that this progress
00:34will not be linear, and no change is necessarily permanent.
00:39The beta branch will see the most experimental changes and will be tweaked each time until
00:44we feel it's stable enough for the main branch.
00:47Participating in that process is optional, but very helpful.
00:51Thank you for your patience as we slowly mould Slay the Spire 2 into its final shape.
00:55However, the game is still overwhelmingly positive on Steam, so this could just be a blip.
01:01What do you think of the early access version of Slay the Spire 2 so far?
