Thanks for the feedback. Dwarfing Dreams is built as both a fetish game and a roguelike deckbuilder, so it won’t feel like Sekiro or a pure TCG. Balance is important to me, though, and I'm still working to make sure the card pool and stance system have real depth for players who want to push it, while still making it approachable to new players.
The Discord is meant for deeper discussion, not to hide problems. Public feedback is valuable, and I am using it to spot and address rough edges. The goal is to deliver on fetish fantasy while still giving meaningful tactical decisions, and I’ll keep tuning as players dig in. Sorry you didn't enjoy the first alphas.
The next update will also add proper difficulty options on top of the debug character that’s already in the game, so you can tailor the challenge to your comfort.
