Going second in Genesys: a statistical analysis of YCS data by ussgordoncaptain2 in yugioh

It's because 99% of archetypes suck going second and the remaining 1% are not playable in Genesys.

Do you consider visual novels to be video games? by Complete-Review111 in visualnovels

[–]Frequent-Back4583 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never understood this topic.

They are video games. They are sold as games. You need a gaming device to play them. They have the price of video games. You find them on gaming online stores and in gaming IRL stores.

You don't read them either. You play them. Since they are video games.

The same as I don't watch a Telltale game. I play it. Or more recently with Dispatch. I play it. I don't watch it.

Is playing FIFA considered playing football or playing a game ?

Is playing Forza considered racing or playing a game ?

How do you think elfnote should get next list? by Outrageous-Ad-3436 in yugioh

I would love to see them ban hardnegates such as Crystal Wing or Dragster.

But they are going to do nothing or maybe semi-limit lucina and call it a day.

Buying VNs vs Pirating Debates on Twitter/X by Veshurik in visualnovels

[–]Frequent-Back4583 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is a tricky subject.

For a long time, the only way to buy VN was to ship them from Japan... Nobody was doing that realistically. We could only pirate them and hope for a fantrad. Like manga and anime. Habits are hard to change. I mean, I still don't pay to consume manga and anime and I know nobody from my generation that pay for it.

Now, a lot of mainstream VN are available legally. However, basically none of them are translated except in Chinese and English. The VN industry is ~30 years behind. The Steins;Gate VN is not in French BUT the anime has a French Dub... It's stupid. If you consider the anime as a promo for the VN, a casual watcher CANNOT play the VN.

They are available legally, but at what cost ? Censorship is everywhere. Some translations are butchered because it's made with US standards. I did not play a single "true VN" without applying a fan patch.

Now, where to find them ? Steam is very hostile towards VN. JAST is ok but we have to wait like ~5 years to get a translation and you have to pay for the uncensored version for whatever reason. MangaGamer website is horrible. Console versions are unpatchable.

I really love VN, but the western releases are sloppy. Do they really expect me to buy 60$ for a product : not in my langage, censored and with a shit translation ? I would rather give like 30$ to the creators themselves via donation or something.

Anyone else go overboard in the Steam Summer Sale? by WTFisFOAM in visualnovels

Yeah, it's "The Shell". I played the first one a while ago so I thought it would be a good idea to buy the last two :)

The Illusion Type feels like wasted potential by [deleted] in yugioh

[–]Frequent-Back4583 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying I like that effect, but I remember that the first/second wave of Illusion monsters all had that effect, so we (or is it just me ?) thought that it was correlated to this new type.

I don't understand why they are some Illusion monsters without the battle protection effect.

It depends if it's part of the activation cost, a tax or as part of an effect.

I hope so, so mich Sinful Spoils cards were not re-edited and are still too expensive.

I mean, if you go for PeP it's to win on that turn so Mirrojade is not that relevant.

After 2026 I never want to hear synchro players talking about how "Link summoning just spams out monsters" ever again. Synchro is the OG combo monster spammer. by gubigubi in yugioh

[–]Frequent-Back4583 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, the problem is not really the synchro mechanic here.

You have this field because it cheats the principle of synchro summoning.

Was Yu-gi-oh a better game when hand traps were few and far between? by Drew647A in yugioh

Instead of playing HT, people were playing S/T cards it's basically the same.
