    Doormaker is the best thing that happened to Act 3. Right now Act 3 suffers from being too much of a victory lap, there’s not much you have to do to prepare for the other bosses. The most fun runs I’ve had were when I had to scramble through the Act looking for solutions to get ready for Doormaker, picking cards and Ancient boons I rarely took before.

    Unfortunately, we can’t have nice things because too many players want a power fantasy rather than a difficult strategy game. I’ve even heard people whine that A10 is too hard, not that the game as a whole is too hard, but that hard mode specifically is too hard and it would hurt their ego to just play a difficulty they’re more comfortable with.

    Whaaah, the dev took away my ability to exploit a bug and balanced a boss, worse game ever, -100/10

      People review bomb games that add or take away things that didn’t even affect gameplay in the slightest.

      For Lunacid, there was an update that allowed you to choose your character’s pronouns when you started a game; this has literally nothing to do with how you play the game, how NPCs interact with you, or literally anything other than just some flavor text. If you go into the steam forums and read reviews for the game you’ll see so many idiots harping on and on about how the game “used to be” great until they added pronouns, and now it’s literally unplayable.
