development controversy

Slay the Spire 2 has experienced a significant review bombing on Steam, dropping from an “Overwhelmingly Positive” rating to “Mostly Negative” due to contentious updates and the involvement of consultant Anita Sarkeesian. Over the past month, 65% of the game's reviews, totaling 51,859, have been negative. The controversy has largely remained confined to Steam, as the game is in early access and lacks user reviews on Metacritic. Mega Crit has not yet commented on the situation.
