I bought the original on GCN back in the day because I was attracted to the fantastic design. I had never seen a card-battler before and was really caught off card when I actually started playing. That said, I ended up really enjoying it and have been wanting a remake ever since iPads became a thing.
I think card battler games have come a long way since then, but it’s not bad after you learn it. And it’s nice to have a long, storied RPG to play instead of just rogue likes.
If neo nazis are deliberately trying to train the AIs that feed into everyone’s workflow, I think it is newsworthy despite what all the other headlines say.
The Neo Nazis are the threat, the AI is being abused.
I disagree. Star Wars seems to be doing fine outside of the mainline sequel trilogy. In fact, I’d say it’s the pantheon of secondary and tertiary characters and their stories that redeemed the prequels.
Marvel is fun, but admittedly a bit cramped since everything is kind of bound to earth within a relatively limited span of modern times. Star Wars not so much. Granted, a lot circles around the Skywalker era, but a lot of stories are told that have nothing to do with the skywalkers or anything else you see in the movies. Sometimes they add significance to things we always took for granted, like Rogue One and the acquisition of the Death Star plans.
Am I right to assume you were not a fan of The Mandalorian?
I disagree. A created character can’t exist in Star Wars beyond the game they are created in. This character has the possibility of appearing in cameos across mediums.
I keep saying it. Privacy invasive, targeted advertising has got to be barely worth the cost of maintaining it. Why else is Google trying to put more ads in places, kill ad blockers on chrome, force expats out of subscriptions, and experiment with unskippable ads if not to try and invent some kind of additional value to advertisers out of nothing.
Oh, if it’s being run locally, then I’ve fundamentally misunderstood the situation. Thanks for pointing it out.
