Alright, 500+ hours on this game, and i think im ready to give my review, if u like grind, have enormous ammount of time, or your wallet is really deep, play it. My account is completely free-2-play, and i still dont have full collection, sounds like a joke right? no, no joke here.

Mechanics are wild in this game, you can discard your opponents hand as a win condition, you can, heal, pin, and deal direct damage to your enemy HQ while filling their hands with useless cards (Resistance - the most boring and frustrating deck to play against - just forfeit if u play mid-range or slow deck, u wont win), there are also some questionable design choices besides what ive said.

Every nation has its own uniqueness, so i guess thats a plus, but the most interesting looking cards are the most frustrating for you opponent, you will get frustrated playing this game a lot, so prepare for it. Learning curve is pretty easy, so you wont need much time to get into the game.

I wish i could say that skill is the most needed thing to win games, but its not, because some decks are too fast if u are playing slow deck, or even midrange - you will struggle a lot against fast decks in this game, also its very important who goes first and who goes second, as you can imagine, faster decks have insane win rate if they go first. That needs to be changed somehow.

And final thoughts : Ive had my fun, in between all the b***s***, it can be quite fun game, but i wouldnt reccomend it to anyone honestly, not until they improve the game. Cheers !

Almost 600 hours of play without paying anything and still a negative review. I must say you drive quite a hard bargain sir ;)

this dev responds to several negative reviews with similar smarm. they also deny that anyone could cheat at this game no matter what anyone says. i agree the game can be and used to be all the time fun. but these devs dont give a single fuck about anyone that has anything negative to say about this game

What a worthless reply from the devs. Someone can absolutely enjoy a game at first, but as the game gets developed further change their mindset and think negatively of the game. There is a reason players quit games after spending hundreds of hours on them. Be it the playerbase, bad changes to a game, boredom, bad development or the lack of fun mechanics in the game.

The amount of people who cant understand this review is astounding...

Seems reasonable to me, you can personally stick with a game for a long time and still think it's not worth playing/putting money into. That's my relationship with every paradox game.

tbh your stance makes perfect sense, I sunk a few hundred hours and some money into Yugioh Duel Links and I'd give it a not recommend. sounds like both games have similar, almost the exact same, issues too lol

I just ignore money shaming stuff, its just low hit, but as i said, since i started playing the game, it had several stages where it was just broken, bug wise and balance wise, i mostly came back after expansions or patches just to see if the game plays better im not saying the game is complete trash, because its not, i just wouldnt recommend it in its current state. If i made this review few months back i probably would recommend it, but after countless disasters ive encountered i just cant. In the end, its just my opinion. Cheers !

OMG the dev response to this is hilarious. I don't think we should money shame people, but come on...it took you 500 hours to not recommend a free game. Bruh...mental olympics to make this a "not recommend"
