Thanks for the update, but I really would like it if you would be more explicit about these changes.

Make the game easier please, stop shadow nerfing mechanics that make the game slightly less like a chore and also add more LGBTQIA+ stuff. 👴🏻

Could you please nerf Groal? I have already beaten Groal but i think the boss could use some nerf's to make up for the 2 minute runback.

[HelixTheCreator]

Also W devs

Dear Team Cherry, please, could you fix colour and light erorr?
On my notebook white-grey lights in Citadel stands so bright and grey. This problem also takes effects on colour: hornets cloth just like in first game - before bug cloath be like a last trailer.
Thaks from attention!

[HelixTheCreator]

Also could you remove the nerfs from Moorwing and Sister splinter? I do not think they need to be nerfed as not only are they way easier then bosses ahead of them but nerfing them could make the problem worse as the players that beat the easier bosses will not be ready for the stuff ahead.

Really not that bad if you come back and fight him with needle level to 3 also you can throw the pimpillo in his mouth,also get wreath of purity for maggots

pls i rly want to go to the act 3

[ColdNoodlezz]

issues: The touchpad of the DualSense wireless controller is not working on the Mac.

[PrimeBrew]

Still no option to disable tools on R1 or double contact damage huh

[PlasmaStruck]

I have been seeing stuff on the patch notes always leaving out most of the changes, and the ones that are cared about, can that please be worked on? it causes needless confusion.
Also do think groal needs somekind of "funificiation" update lol.
Want to say though I feel the people saying we don't need nerfs are forgetting about steel soul mode, with double damage being common and not a rarity of end game bosses, simply bad luck can end a run as it doesn't take much mistakes to lose a fight.
Can ways be added to get both duels in late act 2 and 3?
Also sorry about asking a lot but really want to suggest somekind of official place to leave feedback and suggestions, a place to be and feel heard.
The game has so much potential and room to grow but it is hard to really give ideas when there isn't any official place for it. Plus just can be frustrating when playing and thinking "maybe this being here/being able to do this would be nice" and not being able to voice it anywhere. Just 2 way communication can be very good for a game and its community.
