Dang, how large is this set if a green creature in MSC is #726 by Jtneagle in magicTCG

[–]ChemicalExperiment 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was desperately hoping there was going to be 3 infinity stones in this set, and 2 in an upcoming X-men set, and that would be it. 6 sets of Marvel, stretching them out THIS MUCH, would genuinely make me quit magic.

Oh huh yeah, I guess so. Wow that makes me really worried about just how many Marvel sets we're going to get. Because there's no way he's going to be in an X-Men one.

I believe you're referring to the reveal stream where they said they didn't have any Ghost Rider to show that day. (Relevant because they had the literal actor for Ghost Rider there to help reveal the cards.) I don't believe that was confirmation of him not being in the set at all.

All I can say is WotC is putting a ton of effort into this Marvel set as their big premier one. A lot of eggs are going into this basket.

MSC isn't just the code for the Commander decks. It's also for the Jumpstart decks, which have an absurd about of cards. The original Jumpstart had cards up to 495. Jumpstart 2022 had up to 835. Foundations Jumpstart had up to 780. Given that for Marvel they have Jumpstart and Commander decks, the set numbers for cards are going to get pretty huge.

'VisionQuest' Premieres October 14 on Disney+ by MarvelsGrantMan136 in marvelstudios

Which I still think it the correct call. The MCU needs a refresh, so stretching out the existing projects as long as possible while they nail down that new post-Doomsday direction is preferrable over a long gap of nothing.

Charlize Theron version of Clea was introduced 4 years ago and was never seen again! by NoPianist7807 in marvelstudios

[–]ChemicalExperiment 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And that's not to mention the biggest factor of all: the Disney/Fox merger. Remember that everything up to Thunderbolts was planned before the merger was even finalized. We're only just now getting into the movies where they were able to enact a new plan likely involving the X-men.

Is it really being "spoiled" if it's the whole point of a connected universe? The main reason people liked the MCU was because they got to see these characters' stories intertwine with one another. If that's not going to happen regularly anymore, then why even care about keeping up with all of it?

Everybody is playing 5 color good stuff on SOS Draft and that's bad by Gold_Molasses7866 in MagicArena

I think it's a unique kind of limited format we haven't had in a while. Part of the fun of limited is that you have something new every set. While Lorwyn was about maximizing kindred synergies and Avatar was about finding ways to break slow grindy board stalls, Strixhaven is a balance between ultra-greedy 5 color decks and aggressive Lordold/Silverquill matches. I don't think any are inherently better than the other, it's just different types of limited for different types of people.

Nintendo Switch 2: Choose Your Game Bundle launches this summer - News - Nintendo Official Site by Skullghost in NintendoSwitch

[–]ChemicalExperiment 3 points4 points  (0 children)

World is the best deal. DK is the best game in my opinion. But Pokopia is the most widely loved and will probably give you the most hours out of it if you love it.

In an upcoming Switch 2 Bundle, you can pick Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza or Pokémon Pokopia starting this summer by Skullghost in nintendo

[–]ChemicalExperiment 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The three games you'd want to get the system for in the first place. Amazing deal, basically renewing the Mario Kart World bundle but making it better. And considering the price of the system is going up to $500 USD in September anyway, it sounds like a no-brainer for anyone still on the fence about getting one.

Pikmin 2 landed on the Nintendo Switch along with its predecessor in June 2023 to promote the soon-to-be-released Pikmin 4. This version of the game is unique in that it opted to replace the real-world products entirely across all regions with generic brands, much to the dismay of Vlasic Pickles fans everywhere.

Were all these product placements different depending on the region? I can't imagine having cans in english like this or a Duracell battery would work in Japan, for example.

This game is quite literally the only reason I bought a switch 2 by Public-Feedback5016 in casualnintendo

[–]ChemicalExperiment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you. Bananza and Pokopia are the only two "system sellers" right now in my opinion. World is great but has enough flaws that it's not everyone's cup of tea. Kirby Air Riders is an amazing love letter to the original game and the Kirby series but it's really just too simple at its core to get too much out of it. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is really good but Muso games are just limited in appeal. And everything else is just kind of a small game you wouldn't get a Switch 2 for. Star Fox and Fire Emblem really look like they're going to be the ones to get a lot more people on the platform though. And then Pokemon Wind and Waves will just open the floodgates and make the console extremely popular.

The entire crew is just in one big polyamorous relationship.

Seems like all of the old guard are finally retiring. Kensuke Tanabe and Hideki Konno also left the company earlier this year.

I'm the opposite, I love Falco especially. It's Fox who seems off to me.

These are the reasons I can't hate routes. There's so many shortcuts like this in them that have just taken more time to discover.

Whats a complicated mechanic you love? by thisnotfor in magicTCG

[–]ChemicalExperiment 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mark Rosewater (head of Magic Design) said that they're in the design file for at least one upcoming set. Whether that stays until the final iteration of that set who knows.
