Mission accomplished. What a masterpiece! 

I'd also like to share a game in development: Quest Snakes

Quest Snakes | Strategic Medieval Party Card Game by Real Fake Games — Kickstarter

I pledged for the Deluxe set and probably will receive it in around half a year from now. The artwork is gorgeous & hilarious and the gameplay sounds super fun. It's also playable …

The third Skelly statue is something I'd really like to unlock as well but I heavily doubt I'll ever manage to do 32 heat. Maybe I'll check out some youtube videos to get a better feeling of what it takes to do this.

Well, I'm a stubborn person when it comes to …

The most problematic issue will likely be the pricetag because I cant see a world where it stays at 2k gold or 20 bucks.

Especially considering they've just exchanged a few gold drops with packs on the reward track... 

In other words: They didn't have anything else to show. I was really hoping for some quality of life updates.

I wish! Unfortunately I'll have to wait a little longer because I'm a PS5 gamer, I don't have a PC I could play on. Probably better for my wallet :D

I've heard the currently released Hades 2 version is already bigger than Hades 1?! Did you enjoy it so far?

Got kissed by Yogg and pulled some insanely lucky boons in Hades 1 this weekend, beating the game on 16 heat for the first time. Now I only have to level all the trinkets to max to earn my first ever Platinum trophy 😍 The third Skelly statue is something I'd really like to unlock as well but I heavily …

I got pretty lucky when it comes to legendaries, only had to craft 1 of them so far (8 hands). Epics were another story and the preorder signature probably won't see use or even get dusted. All in all very happy with the haul as well as with the expansion so far. They've hit the right spot regarding the power …

Quick update:

  • Simulacron-3 by Daniel F. Galuye starts like a crime solving mystery but quickly goes philosophical, questioning the nature of reality itself. Unfortunately the protagonist takes quite a bit to catch up with that twist. It was very interesting to see how the author imagined the future to look like though. 3/5 stars
  • The Left Hand …

I've got to say I'm concerned about Wild. If Treasure Distributor is killed, the meta will slow down even more - a process that has started with the nerf to Secret Passage. The result will not be an utopia of "reasonable" aggro decks, some midrange stuff and control being viable. Instead, we'll find ourselves in a hellscape made of Reno …

As a hyper-engaged player I really dislike these, especially the Tavern Brawl reward pack. I usually hord Standard packs from day 2 of an expansion until the release of the next one, sometimes getting up to 50 of those. That's a huge head start into the new set for free. Getting a pack from the current expansion might be of …

I do like the idea of trying new stuff and being able to get something out of it at the same time... but then I happen to have preordered this time and I'm bad at Arena so those tickets are probably better used in this special Brawl anyway. If the rewards are good and I can build something competitive with …

Got another one :)

Decided to skip The Blacktongue Thief for the moment and read The Moon is a harsh Mistress by Robert A. Heinlein instead. The language initially turned me off a bit, as the whole book is written the way the protagonist is speaking. Other than that it was a great read, focusing mostly on politics similar to the Ender’s Shadow series …

DK is almost dead in Wild. I have recently had some success with Even Rainbow DK (got 11x in August and day 1 legend in September), but if you look at meta reports, there usually isn't a single DK deck to be found on them. The card base just isn't big enough yet to create the hyper synergies you need …

Interesting article, thanks for that. I'm leaning towards wanting more double-Runed cards and it would totally make sense to introduce these in the last set of the year. The number of cards for the class can stay the same that way - you dish out a few double-Runed cards and flesh out the decks with the cards from the earlier …

I can't help myself feeling like this is the beginning of the end. There's a very big increase in expensive cosmetics this year and while I really enjoy some of them (I've spent more €€ in 2024 already than any other year before), that does smell like a last desperate cash grab before the game dies. I really hope I'm …

I'm sorry but I have yet to see a card from this mini set that sparks excitement. Feels like all we get is either boring pack fillers or game breakers. Kinda sad.

Ooooh I've been curious about that one, there haven't been many reports or tests about it when I last looked for them. Is there any game you can compare to it? Most importantly: How would you rate the difficultiy? I've heard some people say it's as hard as a Soulslike which would be an instant no from me as I …

I like the overall approach here. Most of the nerfs seem kinda easy to predict:

  • [card]tidepool pupil[/card] will go to 2 Mana
  • [card]doomkin[/card] will hopefully get nuked to 8 Mana or get a completely new effect
  • I'd like to see [card]Secret passage[/card] bumped to 2 Mana, that seems the easiest solution to the problem at hand …
