This game is dead and unrewarding anyway, now that Sirius is going to map I'm basically banned from them. So much for making me enjoy the game.

I hate facing Sirius since that guy is INVULNERABLE for me. I'll rather face Tanos with a spoon than see Sirius. In my quest to get the Awakening Challenge, he was a necessary loss of EXP due of certain death. I'm not going to play this shit Friday. I'll take a break until they stop thinking that Sirius is a fun boss to face. I don't give a fuck about nerf, they can force us to play a no skill faceless character for what I care, I am pissed of having Sirius forced upon me. I hate Sirius.

"We did not specifically set out to buff or nerf the overall power of most Ascendancy Classes in Echoes of the Atlas" You effin' kidding right? My league starter has an outright 20% less damage and 20% less minion duration, and my bosskiller build has 30% less damage... this is ABSOLUTELY a nerf... it's NOT "simpler but more powerful" That statement is a flat out lie. These don't kill my builds completely, but they are NERFS. It's bad enough that you left us still saddled with the bleeding anal cancer conqueror system of progressing the atlas... it's just adding insult to injury to nerf my builds at the same time. Oh no, now my minions take 3 seconds to AoE entire screen with a budget of 5 EX instead of 1. DEAD GAME!!!!

"This game is free therefore we cannot critic anything the developers are doing" is a logic that will always amuse me, you know what else is free ? Air, and if someone shits in your bedroom I'm pretty sure you won't like the free stench it leaves. Covid is free too, my point being that it being free doesn't grant it any kind of immunity toward the people who actually Kickstarted the game and kept it affloat until Tencent came along. If anything I'm more disappointed by the lack of transparency with the nerfs / buffs than I am with the changes themselves.
