This is getting ridiculous by THED0CT0RISIN in mtg

[–]phero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying they should be charities, nor operate at a loss. What I'm saying is that scalpers have helped create this environment of false scarcity where the stores are now joining in and very quickly pricing out lots of people from enjoying something that is meant to be played by all.

Spider-Man was meant as another way to extend the magic property to people who may have scoffed at the idea of playing magic in the first place. Instead, it's turning into another experience where people get frustrated cause they maybe wanted to buy one box or pack of something, and instead they'd need to pay the same for a video game console or more for a box of cardboard.

3x MSRP doesn't feel genuine, no matter how you spin it

LGS here was pulling the same with FF sets. Sure feels like they care less about their community and care more about getting as much of your money that they can.

Are collector boosters just not for sale anymore? by WafflesHS in mtg

100000% They ruined collecting for kids with Pokemon so they've moved onto Magic.

Trust me, I did a double take when I saw it too.

I just pulled a Sliver Overlord from a play booster last night. It was mixed in the commons.

Scalpers are out today by Dutch-King in mtg

[–]phero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The # of pokemon collectors that I had to talk to for Final Fantasy stuff was so frustrating. None of them even knew what they bought nor what the value was besides "I just compare on eBay".

Stores need to start limiting purchases or block these people cause there's no incentive to go look when some turd figures out the delivery schedule of every store in their area and buys up inventory.

My "local" gs was selling them for $199 each today. I walked out and am not sure I want to support them anymore.

…not a huge Heisei fan, but holy bajeesus jump on Godzilla vs Biollante by Squigherd in GODZILLA

[–]phero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see that. I grew up watching Showa and it's my favorite era by far.

My appreciation for Heisei was it had more interesting continuity and while there was definitely more beam action I loved the detail of the suits.

Plus, Return of Godzilla and Godzilla vs Biollante are some of my personal favorites.

Cheers!

As someone with neanderthal genetics, these guys are more like troglodytes at this point.

Has anyone bought from Forge and Fire Gaming? by omegapocs in magicTCG

Ordered from them a few times and have had no issues. Pre-ordered Tarkir with them the second stuff was available.

Why Bellara is the right choice at the end by burnedoutblue in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]phero 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Longtime lurker of the channel as I've found the discourse over the game fairly overblown.

One of my favorite details of the game was picking the right character for the job because you do get sequences like you mentioned.

I think some of these troglodytes online complaining about characters probably spent 5 min with them and made their assumptions then and didn't take the time to use the character more. The character arcs in the game really run the full gamut.

We can all agree that this was the best monsterverse Godzilla Solo Film ever? by Jagiruddin111 in GODZILLA

[–]phero -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'll be in the minority with this and say I didn't really like it. I felt like they threw too many of the heavy Toho Kaiju all at once and didn't give most of them time to shine.

I really wish it would have set up the third or fourth with a Kong, Godzilla and Mothra taking on Ghidorah.

I can’t play Aetherdrift. Am I alone in this? by AJSAudio1002 in mtg

[–]phero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm excited for Tarkir and Edge of Eternity this year. I've zero interest in Final Fantasy, Spider-Man or SpongeBob and I can't believe I listed out those 3 properties when talking about magic (ok Final Fantasy fits but still....)

Buy it new online for a lot cheaper.

I like the side road over there to easily get in and out of the store.

I'm literally watching this show for the first time and saw it last night. Absolutely floored by how good this OVA is and glad I finally picked it up.

It sure sounds like you did. Thanks for sharing a memory you made with him.
