I already play Balatro
Like a give a frick, I'm just going to pirate
>Slay the Spire 2
>It's th一
looks like some shit I'd scroll past on newgrounds
More of the same is good
STS is like 8 years old and even if it's replayable as frick at some point you'll just get bored and having more shit like it is cool
have you checked out sts mods? theres massively more *balanced* content for sts1 out there to render this sequel useless
Yes I have and some of them are pretty good but I'm still looking forward to an entirely new game, even if it's the same kind of shit I've already played
The Thorton is the only good mod
>milk a game through early access for 10 years
>release it
>immediately make the exact same game again but with 1/10th of the content so you can milk it for next 10 years
genius
STS is early access perfected
>early access in 2025
>looks basically the same as first one
>both graphically and mechanically from what little screenshots can tell
I imagine it will sell solely on being slay the spire but goddamn it is a letdown. Exactly the same case as Hades and Hades 2.
There's a Hades 2?
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1145350/Hades_II/
why isn't this an expansion/dlc/whatever you want to call it
I'm not a huge fan of the first Hades cus roguelite elements in an action game are fricking gay, but I think there's a far greater chance this'll play somewhat differently than the original at least in comparison to StS2
>STILL no news since the initial announcement
>supposed to get an early access release too
What the frick are they doing?
>What the frick are they doing?
Working on the game most likely in that case.
Games with a constant dev diary shit are almost always terrible, because they spend time that could be used on making the game better, writing up blog posts about how they spent 10 hours coding a chair.
>female main character
get woke go broke
It'll make more money then you'll ever see across 10 lifetimes.
It will, same as sts 2, but both are entirely corporate products made exclusively for profit.
>both are entirely corporate products made exclusively for profit
morons will really just say random nonsense on here and think they're saying anything of substance.
at least I fit in troony
Split it across all people involved then let's talk.
so like 5 people?
*shit, thought we were talking about sts itt
>Hades 1
>>Not woke
>>>>Not woke
You are huffing that copium supreme
What was woke in Hades? Is it because gods had unnatural skin colors? Genuinely asking.
>go woke
The devs literally made the gods brown for more colored people representation.
A 2 second google search would have token you right to the steam page for it, complete with a trailer.
You are the kind of brainless, lowest common denominator Black person that these games are made for. Barely able to tie your shoes without help, so here's more of the same slop repainted.
holy redditor
I'm starting to get the feeling you haven't actually played these games. Otherwise you'd recognize that nothing shown in the Hades 2 trailer was in the first game (aside from Hades himself, in a cinematic). Even the character mechanics have changed.
>inb4 noooo it's still a top-down action game! that means it's a reskin!
Anon people post and say things like that rhetorically, not as information-seeking questions. You may be the kind of autist that people stop talking to the longer they know you.
Incel moment
>we wuz greek gods n sheeeit
nah, keep your dei slop
Yeah, this is offtopic but Hades II being a female MC pretty much kills my interest in the game. The first one was already lame enough with them making up bullshit excuses for the greek gods being different races and there being an sexual aromantic "love interest" because the VA 'didn't wanna do it', so them making the main character a chick is just the final nail in the coffin for me.
It is gonna be really successful though. Everyone sucks off Hades even though it actually isn't THAT great. Like it is okay, but it is genuinely pretty basic and carried hard by music/art style. The gameplay is just mashing dash + attack and the upgrade system is very generic. It is basically babby's first rouguelite.
>Exactly the same case as Hades and Hades 2.
No it's not, everything we've seen from Hades 2 is new.
is Ganker against classic sequels now?, does every sequel need to be a complexly different game for it to be a true sequel?
this shit have always been standard and nobody cared before.
people will always complain louder on Ganker than they will praise things they like
Like Darkest Dungeon 2 got shit for being different, this is getting shit for being too similar
why can't they make a game with 3 new characters?
and of the old characters why bring the boring ones instead of defect, the only character in that game that requires thinking.
>Defect
>RNG the character
>Defect
Far and away the most interesting character with the most build variety potentiality
>the most build variety potentiality
I don't believe it.
You don't play much of this game or you've never touched defect to a decent degree if you say this. You can win in so many weird ways with defect and the mental requirement is so much higher when you're making decisions, it's not even close.
Could say the same with iron and silent.
Yeah not to the same extend and it would be stupid to say otherwise. Watcher probably has more viable builds than clad or silent just because of the powerlevel of the character. They are all fun and rewarding to play and learn but defect is the hardest and most complicated and it's not even close.
That's a good thing. Stop trying to fix things that aren't broken. STP was perfect and having more of it is only a good thing you fart box licking homosexual.
Jesus, the art style is absolutely putrid
>It's the same game
Good.
>Hellraiser
Demon Form but not shit?
they fricked up the new King's Bounty game and i think my life ended that day.4yx
why would anyone want a sequel that's nothing like the original?
>this Ironchad pose
what the frick, not even pirating this slop
All I wanna say is that downfall is really shit. Thanks.
is it confirmed that this is made with godot? I knew the studio switched to it recently but I'm not sure if it was before or after they started working on sts2
https://twitter.com/godotengine/status/1778347149538767277
>All new game engine
Thank christ. I hate having to wait like five minutes for the game to load with a bunch of mods.
with all that money the 2 devs made, I would have thought the sequel would be a bit more expensive looking. did they just buy yachts and stuff?
"uhhh actually sweetie the silent was black all along"
Yes. Did you never beat the heart as Silent? It's pretty clear in that art.
yes, and?
The silent is one of those cute brown girls with actual noses tho
Thank you for your input. Except, I don't think the Silent is cute at all.
The tribal skull motif that the silent clearly has was sort of a dead giveaway, even if you didn't clearly see it in the card art.
It's incredible seeing people get BTFO in real time
Yes she was.
why isn't she barefoot?
why did they make my beautiful wife silent a black grandma...
secondary
i meant grandma, im fine with her being black
It's been a thousand years.
I don't think she looks that old in the pic does she? Black around her eye is shadows/lighting. Unless by grandma you mean anyone over 30.
the one thing I'll be mad about if they don't add it is actual animations to attacks
>i want attack animations to dramatically slow down the pace of playing 20 cards to roflstomp the boss
Theres a reason the snappy hit animations in the first game are so fast. You want it to feel good to play, rather than revel in some homosexual spectacle that WILL get tiring after the first full run with it.
you know this shit can be toggled on and off, right? pokemon did it 25 years ago.
>just animate every single card, for every single character because whoops prismatic shard exists
You'll get the hitspark animations that can be used universally by both player and enemy where relevant.
Its a cost and time saving mechanism to not actually animate the characters/enemies specifically, puppeting them around (like making them sway back and forth when playing a skill or hop when throwing a big attack) still gives a sensation of movement without being as costly to implement.
>>just animate every single card, for every single character because whoops prismatic shard exists
not my fricking problem, it's an early access game so they can take the money and invest it into the game to look better. more animations is the only thing that will realistically give it an edge over the origina (the artstyles look so different that I won't even compare them)
>new gameplay doesn't matter i will only care if they make it pretty
You're a hopelessly lost cause.
I'll give you a break because I forgot to type "visually" when talking about an edge. but the base game was more than perfect in what it was other than desperately needing more acts. the only things I reasonably expect from 2 are branching paths with different acts to go through and tweaks to the old characters. new ones are a given considering skull guy from the trailer, but that's what we're realistically getting on release
BEST sts mod coming through
how can Anthony and Casey compete with 30 talented modders?
By buying their work for $5 and a credit
The game has way too many useless shit cards and it's a chore to get a decent run going.
>It's the same game
yeah, I was really excited for a sequel, but that was before I found out it was a turn based card game.
>but that was before I found out it was a turn based card game.
what... what did you want a sts sequel to be? hack and slash with all the characters from the game? with card abilities as cooldown shit?
???
What? What other genre would it be, you fricking moron?
>It's the same game
good
I hope it has at the very least 10 acts
3 acts is just too short
>Initial teaser for a game coming to early access next year
>they pretty much started over after unity tried to change its pricing
It's obviously beta assets and shit morons. Either way if it is just more StS but with a wider variety of content I'm all aboard. Sadly my wish of it being a co-op iteration with cards to heal others and pull aggro seems outside the design scope.
Have you tried the board game adaptation? Its on TTS.
I haven't. I was aware of it but didn't know someone made it in TTS.
TTS was used to playtest it while it was indev.
The 4 characters being used cooperatively and enemy lanes is definitely interesting. I kinda want to see someone adapt it into a mod since i decided not to buy in since my tabletop group wouldn't table it often enough to justify it.
>It's obviously beta assets
after the first game, it's hard to say. it already looks a little better, but not that much better.
looks like they're still using flash-style animation at the moment, and unless that changes, which it likely won't, there's only so much they can do to improve the ingame art.
buy Chrono Ark instead
It looks like random shit slapped together with no rhyme or reason, I can't get into it.
good rec, they finally finished the story (beta available), so the price might increase soon
It already increased last week
>deck-BUILDING video gaymin designed where the optimal way to play is by having FEWER cards in your hand
god what a moronic post.
considering how much money the first game mustve made I expected better visuals at least.
Kinda same, but maybe there will be animations? Better VFX? Just a lot more content to justify it?
Honestly I just want better sound effects.
I do believe we'll get an update. Combat animations at the very least
Small odd detail but the Fear Potion looks like it's been almost emptied, down to its dregs. Do you think the game will let you keep potions you already used with events/store options that let you refill them?
It could be a new charge based upgrade or something. If you get a strong potion it might have multiple uses, or possibly you can spread out it's useage for diminished value.
The amount of sperging moronation this announcement is causing is baffling.
You can't even be excited for the game because then you're a shill.
Whatever, threads will eventually be good, since StS1 threads already are good since only actual players frequent them to discuss the game.
>new game
>look inside
>roguelike deckbuilder
*THE roguelike deckbuilder, under all metrics
next time check the tags on steam dumbass.
>Bring back the two most boring characters of the original
>Barely change their decks
Creatively bankrupt
Make all new classes, you lazy fricks
>silent
>boring
Can't see how this is true when grand finale exists
>two most boring
Interesting way to say well designed.
Yeah idk if it's just a skill issue but I can't make defect work half of the time.
He has the potential to become one of the biggest rapists in the entire game but flounders easily/has too much ways to become bad (you got focus but no orbs, orbs but no focus, you got powers but no synergy etc)
>It's the same game
Good.
StS was good, I'll gladly play more of the same but with some changes.
they could literally just release the same game and change nothing and i would buy it
I would pay $70 for StS2
you are acting as if this isn't what sts cultist want
CAW CAW
>buy the touhou reskin
>proceed to get smacked at every corner because dev can't into balance
at least the art is cute
There are decent touhou mods for StS.
What? It is hilariously easy to break that game sideways with any character, much more so than sts ironically enough. It only gets hard if you play lunatic with all of the requests checked.
Don't think i can ever get back to how limiting STS is after Lost Branch of Legends and Chrono Ark
Darkest Dungeon 2 reinvents itself and everyone is mad.
StS 2 stays true to the original and everyone is mad.
Gamers...
dd2 didnt reinvent itself it copied the popular roguelite formula, popularised by sts itself, a formula that happens to be a thousand times less interesting than dd1's dungeon crawling
moronic Black person
Then why is StS so beloved and DD2 isn't?
I dont care about anyone.
I'd like a bit more world building, combat animations and more fan service in the form of animations, win screens etc. a bit more fluff.
The game itself can get more stuff, maybe new mechanics etc
there aren't any darkest dungeon clones so people who wanted more of the same had no options other than the sequel
people who want more of the same with sts can just go play any of the fifty thousand roguelite deckbuilders out there
>there aren't any darkest dungeon clones
there are a few, and even predecessors with the same gameplay loop..DD wasn't that original
theres that one game published by paradox thats basically a mix of slay the spire and darkest dungeon, across the obelisk.
It's about making incremental improvements, not making something totally different or making a carbon copy. Hopefully at least the animations will be better, although I doubt it based on the screen shots
DD being a campaign game is one of the appeals of the gameplay.
By constraining it to a run-by-run basis you fundamentally change the pace that players have to optimize their planning instead of taking your facility's progression at as breakneck or leisurely of a pace as they want. Being able to experiment with some shitter teams were a fun respite and a party wipe could be recovered from with backups, cant be having that in DD2.
DD2 is still basically the same game but worse.
>two different games do two different things and still fail
Well at least they both have one thing in common,they both seem to have forgotten who their core audiences were ,why they bought their games to begin with and failed to adapt accordingly to the market
What is the story about? We already beat the heart in the first game.
pretty sure most of the art on the steam page is temp art because it looks worse than the sts 1 art. These enemies look actually finished since they actually are actually in movement and they look alot better than the OP pic
>It's the same game
hope so
THIS IS WHAT "GAME 2" IN A SERIES IS MEANT TO BE. IF YOU MAKE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAME, THEN IT IS A SPIN OFF AND NOT "GAME 2" YOU FRICKING moron.
Yea
