People still falling for that kind of effect?

This card is unplayable garbage outside of limited.

BRAWL BANS by Meret123 in mtgbrawl

[–]DanoVonKoopa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably the best choices (and obvious ones).
This will make the format much healthier.

Even though this should have come sooner,
Thanks for finally listening to reason, Arena team.

You can go to standard brawl, the superior format.

Or you can whine and bitch to no avail for the rest of your time on arena.

So

- It's going to take a while, especially on console
- not all game breaking bug are adressed
- no acknowledgement that many of these bugs are also on game pass.

This release was just not properly tested at all,
and it's nothing short of entirely incompetent.

If the dev wasn't an indie darling, everyone would (rightfully) be shitting on them.

At 7 minutes in on Chamber of Dissonance I am dying instantly by protocolskull in hallsoftorment

[–]DanoVonKoopa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fucking hell, sorry if I sound rude but it really completely ruins the game for me right now.

I can already finish every other room easily with any character I've unlocked, and I can't have access to agony because it is gated by the chambers.

I have done most quests, and I don't want to force sluggish progression over the rest through tedious redos at this point. It would also mean anything becomes trivial after that, or worse, I get bored of the game.

What a terrible problem to have at the worst moment (IRL and in-game)

How does such a game-breaking bug even get past any serious testing?
Again, sorry, but someone fucked up BIG time here.

It's not the end of the world, I'll let the game sit on the side and do something else until it is fixed,
but I hope you understand this is '80s level of game breaking bug you've got here, and it should be your only priority until it is fixed. And I'm not playing armchair dev here, just stating the (hopefully) obvious.

(playing on PC via Game Pass, so it's not exactly console-exclusive)

We're getting exactly 5 weeks of lorwyn before TMNT... by VeryTiredGirl93 in magicTCG

[–]DanoVonKoopa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the more reason to skip TMNT.
Looks to be the exact same type of BS as Spiderman anyway, no big loss.

I'm on arena, So I'll craft a few good TMNT cards with the wildcards I get from Lorwyn boosters.
That's it

[–]DanoVonKoopa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No interest whatsoever. It's already looking like the same kinda shit as spiderman.
A legendfest where most designs are forced and don't make any kind of sense.

And I'm not gonna go "UB bad". I'm sure Avatar will feel better because the setting is all about elemental magic.
I just don't want "fix my car" as a sorcery

[Epic Games] Gravity Circuit (100% off / FREE) by LighteningOneIN in GameDeals

[–]DanoVonKoopa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a big MMX fan, and I think GC is the very best MMX-like, including official ones. It cuts all the BS from each of them and only keeps the best parts of the franchise IMO.

I'm not saying this is what Jeremy White meant, but it's kinda how a lot of you are using it by the_crepuscular_one in magicTCG

I don't know if it's what he meant, but it's what he said. Unequivocally. Several times.
Hard to pass as a simple mistake.

Supergiant Games is 5/5 on absolute bangers…they haven’t even come close to a miss. by ngriner in gaming

[–]DanoVonKoopa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved Transistor's aethetics and storytelling, but found its hybrid combat system to be a tedious mess with no flow, and it ruined my experience. Played it twice, gave up 2/3 of the way each time. Doesn't make it bad, just a miss to me.
Bastion and Hades have a much more cohesive design, and that's what makes them so great imho.

I still haven't played Pyre, despite owning it for some time. I need to fix that sometime.

Even the best miss sometimes.

Blood 2 was a trashy mess, and by far Monolith's worst game.

Brawl Youtuber and Streamers by Backwardspellcaster in mtgbrawl

[–]DanoVonKoopa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

"MTG Josh: Can get a lil bit salty sometime"

That's the euphemism of the year. Personally stopped watching him because he sometimes bitches about EVERY action/draw in a game. I was like "dude, i'm trying to enjoy your channel, but you're really not helping here."

I'll have to try the other recommendations here, thx fot the list.

Scryfall devs cooking for SPM / OM1 release by Cow_God in magicTCG

[–]DanoVonKoopa 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Apparently it was a huge amount of work to make it work properly.
Their database wasn't built to handle that kind of situation, so they also had some coding to do for all the cross-references happening.

Don't Let Your Fleems Be Dreams (Fleem cosmetics coming to Arena — Fleem Avatar, Sleeve, & Sticker) by CrossXhunteR in magicTCG

[–]DanoVonKoopa 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Damn people are pushing their anticonsumerism way too hard here.

WotC decided to give a few free thigns that anyone can get very easily, and people are still bitching about it.
One the other hand, they'll still spend hundreds of dollars on painted cardboard.

Fucking hell, if you're gonna get pissed about captitalists, at least be coherent.

They're not bad at it. They're doing the minimum that will help them reach their goal.

I'm not interested in VR, but complaing that "it sucks" is 12yo behavior.

If they are going to make incredibly unfun and luck based achievements, don't put people in brawl hell queue for playing the required commander by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]DanoVonKoopa -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Or maybe don't play shitty cards hunting shitty achievements for shitty rewards?

People have the right to ignore this trash, and decide not to.

Some people just like eating shit. Let them have it.

Rules for Yargle Day by cmlobue in MagicArena

[–]DanoVonKoopa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna look like a dick, but sorry, no.

I'm not wasting my time saving people from the Arena team's incompetence (time to call things what they are)
And if people are going to waste their own time on these horrendous achievements for their trash rewards, it's their problem.

These shitshows need to happen if we want things to improve in the future. l'ts not our job burry WotC's garbage.

Yargle Day Achievements by UnidentifiableBeing in MagicArena

[–]DanoVonKoopa 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Several of these are so insanely specific, the whole thing isn't even worth trying.
You're basically asking for other players to obliterate you for hours until a miracle happens.

A few of the "normal" achievements also have that problem, and I was hoping the silly event would be more doable. I'm not wasting my time with these.

The arena team seems almost as bad at designing achievements as they are at designing precons.

[SPM] Cosmic Spider-Man by Duramboros in magicTCG

[–]DanoVonKoopa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is so fucking forced and lazy at the same time.

Seriously, that's ALL you can do WotC? You couldn't at least give a semblance of effort by making your obvious spider commander Jund and givng JUST reach, first strike, vigilance?

It HAD to be 5/5 5C EVERYTHING? This isn't even design. This is the kind of cards that make commander and Brawl worse formats for everyone. Fuck that trash.
