You’d be surprised at how actually well balanced Slay the Spire is, basically any card can be good and you can get by with subpar / average synergies by just learning the game
It’s arguably too balanced
I think the only real trap card is Perfected Strike (the one that gets more powerful as you get more cards with « strike » in it, it tempts you to get more attack cards and ditch mitigation/support)
That being said all I ever want to do is play as Silent and stack ludicrous amounts of poison

I didn’t really have this experience.
The most consistent play I had was in taking the same few cards that have overwhelmingly good general value, waiting until I picked up a playstyle-defining card like Limit Break or Catalyst, then morphing my entire deck around the same rigid strategies that the designers clearly poured all their card design effort into.
While you can coast on subpar synergies and such in the early phases of learning the game, I don’t think it translates to finishing a run or facing the Heart. I’m not a terrible player of these sorts of games by any means - and I like Slay the Spire and think it’s well-balanced for what it is trying to do and the characters it gives you - but I find Dicey’s approach to be more fun.
Looks amazing. I can’t decide which version I want to get.

Does ‘re-entered the consumer market’ refer to a post-2010 withdrawal? That mini-Taito renaissance around Space Invaders Extreme was rather beautiful.
This looks more conservative than those days but I hope it’s just the clips used for the trailer, that spirit of re-examination that was contemporary with Galaga Legions and Pac-Man DX could return every decade for the rest of my life and I’d be happy, recontextualizing the classics with every generation of new blood they get.

wasn’t there a wiiware bubble bobble around then
WiiWare Arkanoid, Bubble Booble, Puzzle Bobble and Rainbow Islands. Also Space Invaders Get Even that I’m about to try.
i remember space invaders get even was good but the episodes felt too short? or they were too expensive? hm i should try that game again
now i wanna play infinity gene ps3 version too
i dunno man… i kinda wish they fleshed out agents of mayhem and made it co-op or just piled on that lore like they did with saints row
like where can you go from saints row? its done. it feels done!

i’d like to see a reboot kind of where they just bring in new characters and do something new with the formula
thats what agents of mayhem is i thought, like its canonically the gat ending of saints row where you all become hyper violent weirdo cops
