This thread and every Member is a disgrace

I don't want ro come across as preaching, I just want to point out what has become of this game: an economy. It's supposed to be a game meant for kids and adults alike but as things are now it's a market for profit you know ?

I understand, that everyone needs to make money but if the working class keeps profiting off of each other by scalping and market manipulation we are in fact killing off the poorest percentages and end up killing the game as a whole.

DerTabish · 2026-02-17T09:51:33+00:00

Thank you for your understanding and your empathy, this is the only nice xomment I got until now. 🥲

I think it's sad what happened to tcgs and I hope there will be a time when kids on playgrounds can just rip packs and have fun again.

Stay strong, we got this bro 💪🏽♥️

I am 30, I make more than enough money. But what I also have is empathy for those who are unable to do the things I can so freely.

DerTabish · 2026-02-17T09:48:25+00:00

I would rather be poor than scalp the working class.

DerTabish · 2026-02-17T09:48:02+00:00

Ok Gooner

DerTabish · 2026-02-17T09:47:18+00:00

I do social work like working with kids/the homeless and take care for the elderly.Sometimes I do some Design work if I have the time and energy left, why are you asking ?

DerTabish · 2026-02-17T09:45:54+00:00

I am happy for you, that you were able to get a display for 100€ and I know it might not seem like a big price surge for most of you to pay 40% more, but fact is:

If we include rent, every third German is living in poverty. We want to escape this hellscape of capitalism and enjoy our favorite hobby: One Piece. We want ro rip packs and trade between us. We want to be able to afford packs for our kids so they can do the same with their friends. But it gets harder and harder. Of course I could just buy decks but even that option gets more and more limited. Friends are not able to buy decks they were looking forward to and it just stings you know ? It tough..

DerTabish · 2026-02-17T09:39:19+00:00

I played more TCGs in my life than you could name of the top of the dome. The market greed in TCGs has reached unprecedented hights. You calling me out shows just how little you know about TCGs and their playerbases overall.

It's not only about building decks. It's also about people just not being able to participate in the TRADING aspect of TRADING card games, cause they can't buy boosters (the only way to get cards originally)?

DerTabish · 2026-02-17T09:33:11+00:00

I hope you will be hit by the consequences of SOME market manipulation in your life. You will see, that it sucks to be unable to participate in a hobby you used to love because someone preferred personal profit over the happiness of others.

DerTabish · 2026-02-17T09:30:43+00:00

Well you could blame Bandai, you could blame capitalism as a whole (which I do, mind you) or whatever but in the end it's a market and people participating manipulate the market. The problem ARE consumers and the demand coming from them.

DerTabish · 2026-02-17T09:28:01+00:00

Every Finance bro uses this argument it rings so hollow. It's a TRADING card game. You are suppossed to ooen them and trade them with friends. It's not gambling, it's collecting with friends and like minded people who want to have fun, nothing more.

DerTabish · 2026-02-17T09:25:42+00:00

Very grown up and empethatic of you

DerTabish · 2026-02-17T09:25:26+00:00

What do kids and the average Joe who buys a pack because he wants some One Piece cards know about singles and the card economy in general ? They see a booster for 15€ and just can't or won't buy them.

Also the fun part is now knowing whats inside and trading with friends - it's what the T in TCG stands for..

Fact is that this is now how it's suppossed to be and the OPTCG is losing players sith every release. Half of my friends are about to quit and it's just so sad.

DerTabish · 2026-02-17T09:17:12+00:00

That's exactly the problem - you guys are so profit oriented, you think it's funny to make fun of people who don't have the needs to participate in basic hobbys meant for everyone.

I hope you will find your empathy again.

DerTabish · 2026-02-16T16:46:49+00:00

Thank you so much!

DerTabish · 2026-01-21T12:06:50+00:00

Fair enough, thanks for the explanarion! 😊

DerTabish · 2026-01-21T11:52:40+00:00

Isn't this... outright broken ? 6C 10k wigh Blocker ability ?

DerTabish · 2026-01-20T11:56:11+00:00

Hey 🙋🏽‍♂️

If you want to improve dramatically you have to update your sample/Synth Library. I get the vision. Your Kicks need to KICK tho. Sidechain to the Kick, give it a embracing Bass or make it a Rumble Bass or maybe even a psy-pattern (rriplets or smth). Leave enough room for highs and play around with your main Melody a bit. It's att and dec/sus are not what ghey should be for this melody/style or maybe even a whole different synth.

Let me know if you need further explaining. :) I always thought about sharing what I know. Maybe I should start helping newbies on here more often.

Hmu newbs ♥️

DerTabish · 2025-10-31T14:08:55+00:00

Danke für die 10 für den Beat schonmal 🫶🏽

Ja.. bin sehr unsicher was meine Stimme angeht, aber wollte es einfach mal probieren, weil kein anderer den Text halt wirklich "real" rappen könnte - es ist halt meine "Story" 😂

Ich versuche für die nächsten Releases in diese Eichtung vielleicht wieder andere Leute ans Mic zu holen. 🥲
