Agreed on this one - if you're selling digital goods there is no excuse to charge what is 50 EUR for something that did not take them more than a work day to complete.

Idc if it's 'supporter only' or whatever, it's scummy. But at least it did me a favor of making me take a step back when it comes to spending on this game, as it's reasonable to expect it'll only get more expensive from this point on.

They wanna charge these prices? Sure, and whoever likes them can pay them. But spending more than I'd pay for a brand new AAA game every 2 weeks is not something I plan on doing, and now that I've made peace with that, I can relax more on spending on it altogether.

Emote slots bother me the most lmao, cause you're already paying most of the time to get the emotes in the first place, so you're effectively paying to be able to display your paid-for emotes.

It's also the first instance of them actually locking some form of functionality behind a paywall, even if it's still technically just a cosmetic.

Also, the community has been asking for more slots since day 1, and they have been hyping it up in titan talks over time. To now turn around and say nu-uh you gotta first cash out the money equal to the cost of a small indie game is such a middle finger.

Of course, but this is the biggest display of it yet.

The audacity to tank the game, fire 75% of your workforce, and then go to players being like 'pwease pay for our 50 eur name colors so we can suwiwe' is incredible.

I'm genuinely shocked more people don't find this mind-bogglingly insane. The cost to value ratio here is insane, and the fact that it's hidden behind the shield of support is exploitative.

AI generated content is explicitly forbidden by our rules.

Yea no you didn't - this couldn't be more clear AI.

Glad you just proved the fact that if you guys didn't think AI was bad, you wouldn't have to lie about it and try to sell it as real, actual art.

Of course it is AI - not that these guys have any shred of decency when it comes to admitting it is lmao

"Effort i put into prompting and creating for others to look and feel something" truly clown behavior

You wanna create something that will make others feel something? Pick up a pencil

Information in the title and post is incorrect - this is an amateur COMMUNITY designed league, and not an official SPL replacement.

We'll have a full list of those coming up pretty soon, but there's a few of them.

Patch Notes

Patch goes live on Monday!

I mean you said it yourself - you find it really fun. The game is only just starting, so now is really the best time to get into it!

The team behind it is very passionate about the game, and while there's obviously been issues so far, they are very dedicated and know their stuff

As replied to the user in modmail, the original post was taken down in an error and the issue has been fixed. Our rules do not prohibit the original post and we realise that.

I understand some of the replies here, but I can genuinely say that we really don't want to stifle discussions like these or anything of the sorts, in fact we have spent a LOT of time recently trying to figure out how to boost the discussion.

So have a lil patience y'all whenever stuff like this happens, cause we're pretty good usually on resolving these issues through modmail.

Hey y'all!

We're trying out having a megathread for each of the Titan Talks to encourage more discussion about them and to bring more visibility, as they answer some pretty good questions on there.

Let us know what you think of the posts and how it can be improved!

We'll ban you anyways for threatening to be hostile over what is essentially a harmless question, dw.

Honestly - I understand how you feel but the reality is that it's just not worth for them to spend the time on it.

Smite 2 is what they are betting their entire company on, and while it sucks I get where they are coming from.

And honestly, I'd recommend giving S2 another shot - once you get past the fact your mains aren't there yet it's really much better than S1 in a lot of perspectives - the combat is smoother, the item system got a LOT of updates in the last few patches, and the community is much more alive than in S1.

No problem!

It was basically - "The systems aren't built to handle this" and "there's significant differences between prisms and other examples"

However, when the question was raised, I think they were answering in the context of Ascension Pass skins, which I can kinda see making more sense (even tho I still agree they should be together lmao)

Also I don't even think it's an excuse tbh, I just really don't see that as a priority right now, although it would be nice to get the confirmation it will be done at some point in the far future.

You're technically right - but you're describing something that's kinda like the opposite of scope creep.

I can 1000% buy that the system was designed with only texture swapping in mind as that's typically how game dev would go - the idea to expand it to cover other systems currently in the game probably never got thrown out there during the planning phase resulting in a system that is limited to textures only.

Now, the system can ofc be expanded to model swapping 1000%, but the issue now is that you have to refactor a system that works well and does its job JUST to do a feature that doesn't actually bring you any kind of direct benefit.

Essentially it's tech debt - to be fixed later.
