Im loving Smite 2! (But pls add menu stuff)
Smite 1 beta tester here. I’ve been playing Smite since I was a teenager. Even though I’ve always been more of a casual player, jumping from casual Conquest, to Arena, then only Clash, and finally mostly Joust, I’ve seen both the absolute best and worst parts of the game.
I lived through the release of Ao Kuang when he deleted tanks in half a second, broken Bellona, Ullr, Herc, the tank meta… I’ve won games with full teams of tanks/assassins/ADCs/mages in Arena, Conquest, and Joust.
Recently, after a very long break, I came back and tried Smite 2 with my friends and I have to say… I’m loving it.
I went in skeptical, with a “let’s see how it is and then go back to No Rest For the Wicked” mentality, but it completely hooked us.
I understand the endless complaints flooding this subreddit, and honestly I share many of them. Aspect Ishtar was cancer, I’m tired of seeing Anubis everywhere, and now Aspect Atlas? What a nightmare. But even so, I’m still having a great time. It would be great if they adreess them sooner, but its a beta and Im sure they are flooded with requests, bugs, patches, and new content, just post your complain in the discord server (I sure have some).
But you know what I’m looking forward to the most in Smite 2? Better stats in the menu.
In Smite 1 I could check my account stats, god ratios, and K/D/A. I know they’ll eventually add it, but I miss it so much.
It’s important to point out the game’s problems because that shows we care, but it’s also important to show appreciation for a game that’s receiving constant support from the devs. New gods every two weeks?? WOW.
Also, I LOVE the Aspects system. It creates a ton of balance problems and all that, but I still LOVE it. Another way to play your favorite god? Yes please.
And honestly, if they cut Aspect Atlas’ orb damage area in half and tweaked a couple more things, he’d probably be fine.
I can’t wait to play later, and at the same time I’m terrified because Ah Puch exists and my god heals alot…
