It’s sad how much hate this game is getting from people who haven’t played it. Wasn’t expecting it to become a victim of right wing culture war grifters, but they seem to go after literally anything if the opportunity arises.

The attack on Slay the Spire kind of just showed blatant grifting without caring about a game's merit so they had to double down on something else to overflood social media with negativity. Keep the hive mind rolling without thinking.
