Dear JustThiemo
After waiting for one year for reset we only see change in new boss and few pets?
Whose code is just copied from other gamemodes.
There is literally 0 effort from the developers in the lifesteal server.
This is bullshit.

Dear JustThemio
While I appreciate the addition of the new boss and pets, it feels like these changes were minor, especially after a year wait . Additionally, it seems that normal Lifesteal mode has been neglected since the release of OP Lifesteal.
Furthermore, the removal of the chat game, which was a fun minigame engaging players in Lifesteal, is disappointing.
Its just the same season as the last but with few addition and changes (that too copied from OP lifesteal
).
