Smite 2 Opinions
This game is headed in the right direction! I was a bit unhappy with the lack of polish at first but I have to cut the dev team some slack considering this might as well be a pre-alpha. The game functions well for the most part with a few random bugs that are definitely just not caught from a lack of testing so far. I'll cover what I like and what I hate.

Pros:
New items:
I am a huge fan of the diversity of items. They are going to be a ton of fun once they are figured out balance wise. I think all the numbers are currently scaled down too far for balance sake. Right now if I had to make a comparison, the items feel like season 2 League of Legends balance. I have high hopes.

Graphical Fidelity:
Even thouigh a great portion of the textures and the like are clearly unfinished, I can tell that serious efforts are being applied. For alpha, everything is acceptable. If they progress at a solid rate I believe the game will actually look pretty cool!

Cons:
Roster Availability:
I believe the Gods selected for the game are poor for testing the engine. I think that for mid as an example that all of the match-ups are either one sided or mirrors in lane! I think they should try to pick out more characters that force interactive play styles for the sake of efficient testing!

Honestly when I started writing I thought I had more to complain about! It's for certain headed in the right direction and I am hopeful for the future updates!
