Slay the Spire 2 has been on my mind, and my thumbs, a lot lately. I've been playing it for work, my hourly playtime is well into triple digits, and it's time we had an honest conversation about something. Sometimes, this game is genuinely, heartbreakingly unfair.
I can already hear the cries of skill issue, deriding me for having the temerity to get annoyed at a roguelite, but hear me out. This game, at its base difficulty but especially once you start getting into ascensions, is extremely reliant on your builds.
