I’ve been a member of a discord community for over 6 years now. On any given night you’ll find people playing anything from Battlefield 6, Arc Raiders, Overwatch 2, etc. It’s a very active community with weekly events and we even have a sim racing group finishing up another season in iRacing. If it sounds interesting, they have a website for applications Over 30 Clan

Apologies if this is considered soliciting. I don’t get many opportunities to mention it and it’s honestly a great community. It took me a long time to find one of this quality.

    Not who you asked, but I just binged that game hard so I’m gonna answer anyway. Monster Train is a frustrating game. In some ways I like it more than Spire, but it feels shallow, like it needs something to make it more substantive. That said, I’m definitely worse at it than I am at Spire, which may be coloring my impression

      I have the opposite opinion. It completely dethroned StS for me. Way cooler wombo-wombo potential and the mix&match of clans and leaders gives tons more replayability.

        I agree there’s more meaningful permutations for replay in Monster Train, and that is indeed excellent. I just feel like there’s more randomness vs skill/strategy at play in Monster Train than Slay the Spire. Or again, maybe I’m just not as good at Monster Train? Either way, both games are very good and I’d highly recommend either to almost anyone.

        Although I do wish both games gave us just a little bit more narrative/lore into which to couch their excellent gameplay.

            I haven’t picked up MT2 yet, but it’s on my wishlist for when I finish some of my current games :)

              It basically makes MT1 obsolete by including all the old clans, and improving on basically everything.
