so is this also "the worst league ever" or worth playing

the last several leagues have been "the worst league ever" according to forums and reddit and I'm just wondering if this is still the case
I really enjoy it. Heists are big fun, if the dont bug or if you dont get oneshot by invisible lasers.

The NPC dialogues are good and you get a feeling of progression while leveling your Thiefs/Rogues.

Loot is gud and balance is okay.

I say give it a try. Maybe wait for another patch or two before doing Grand Heists, though. They tend to bug out.
I'm on the fence. It's not really fun, right off the bat, but I'm giving it a try. The "heist" gets old pretty quickly.

If you are used to running by mobs and getting to your goal as quickly as possible, it's not much different from that. If you're the type who kills everything and checks every urn for stuff, you're going to have to change.

Seems to me that many of the haters want their leagues to be just stuff that happens as they play the game, and not such a distraction from the regular flow of the game. Heist isn't for them. It can really be distracting. You'll have "quest" heists stuck in your inventory until you do them... kind of forcing you to play a certain way.

The rewards from Heists are interesting. Not necessarily good, but unusual. At least for me.

Give a try. Bugs aside the new NPCs and new things are cool. Just don't get high expectations about the league mechanic, and you should be fine.

yes for you because u do low lvl heists ^^

later the rewards get crazy .

I love it. Loved it more before they changed the alert system, but still fun.

I don't judge any league by the first day or first week, since there is always bugs and the like to work out. What makes a good league is how it is long term. Is the feature of the league something that makes the game better and stronger or improves it in some way.

I think Heist is a fairly good league. It does take you away from mapping (which the hard core racers probably dislike), but it seems like a mechanic that could easily be added into Core as early as Chapter 1 or Chapter 3. Heists have their own progression with the thieves skills, but give access to some good rewards.

Frankly, I like it. As a casual player, I could see this as a valuable mechanic to enhance gameplay options for all spectrum of players rather then just the endgame mappers.

The recent removal of alert value for killing does make it rather easy though, so we'll see how it develops through the rest of the league and if they adjust the alert of other things to compensate.
I normally scoff at the worst league talk (obv it was tempest) but for me this one is pretty bad. At least it's very easy to not engage with.
We tested it extensively
league is fun just too buggy ATM. when they fix everything it should be even better.
