Card games still trash, though.

*ahem* Phantom Dust. :ufup


Nothing wrong with card games. The problem is complexity (see: Magic: Duels) + Code for said complexity, versus brain-dead-simple-so-no-fun (see: Hearthstone and numerous clones of it) to where you can't get strategy from it.

Or they do the CCG model (see: Hex) to where they want to price-gouge you to compete.

Like: Gwent in the Witcher 3 is alright. But Gwent as an actual player-vs-player game? Sucks, because you have pay-for folks or "meta" decks that can't be balanced quick enough and when they do, they nerf it instead of looking at the actual problematic issues (factions, etc.) to fix those.

Not just a card game, a card game with laning! So Clash Royale, basically. Fuck Valve.

I hope it has drafting too. At my last job one of our programmers liked DotA and was trying to make a card game using DotA concepts. It was awful but the company was sinking a ton of money into it. I might be a little petty.

i'm always fascinated by companies that sink significant resources into a market that's not only saturated but has major players already involved with brand recognition

talking about bluemax's company, not Valve who could probably make money hand over fist on a new Half-Life game of all things
