Slay the Spire 2’s First Hotfix Addresses Text and Crashing Issues
Quick Slash.
In just a day, Slay the Spire 2 already has the highest concurrent player count of any roguelike on Steam, and the good folks over at Mega Crit have begun putting the early access model to use by addressing some stability and in-game text issues with a hotfix.
Slay the Spire 2 Hotfix 1 Highlights
At release, if your PC’s default language was set to something other than the languages from the supported list, the in-game text would default to a series of Ws. Mega Crit has addressed that in the first hotfix:
Fixed unsupported Steam languages showing all text as W's instead of falling back to English
Crashes caused by fast card play have been addressed, along with issues related to untranslated text in languages with complex plural rules. Players using non-English languages were also experiencing intermittent crashes, which have now been fixed.

The animation and art are a massive upgrade over the original; the status effects and incoming attacks are much clearer, and there are tons of new mechanics, ailments, relics, and cards to discover.
