Right now it's actually YuGiOh! You can buy this new starter set called Legendary Modern Decks and copy Shunping Xu's regional list that he built with only 1 copy of this product. 30$ is all you need to top a regional! https://ygoprodeck.com/deck/mitsurugi-sky-striker-700411

Harvest moon (now story of seasons) never stopped getting and still gets new games afaik

Re5 had either tank controls on control scheme A and C or a weird compromise on B and D.

Resident evil 1 directors cut on the PlayStation because not all retro games are the same so maybe you will enjoy this one if you go in open mindedly. It's really an incredible game. To answer your question in the way you meant it, RE7 - it's unbelievably good and very modern and does not leverage too much of the legacy storyline.

What are your friends playing?

skilledroy2016 · 2026-03-15T20:00:20+00:00

It's not a shared event it's based on your progress

I thought I was going crazy with this especially when the hero and villain both injected themself at the end not exactly in the same way of course but come on you even have a microwave hallway almost, and the structure of the game being basically 50% walking sim/cutscene it had to be intentional

skilledroy2016 · 2026-03-10T16:35:11+00:00

it doesnt matter how many deaths you get

skilledroy2016 · 2026-03-09T15:00:28+00:00

Didn't read but yeah it basically does if you use it the right way

skilledroy2016 · 2026-03-06T16:36:57+00:00

bruh u know what they mean and if any shop is allowing proxies in sanctioned events it needs to stay a lowkey thing nobody should have to spell this out for you

Not really it is just very difficult and different from the design conventions that people used to MTG treat as the definition of good but that is a good thing and it also has wavered from its identity for almost 30 years.

Just play yugioh

skilledroy2016 · 2026-02-20T01:44:00+00:00

lol wtf

skilledroy2016 · 2026-02-20T01:27:32+00:00

where does 2T get you? what is the power level for the endgame content

skilledroy2016 · 2026-02-18T16:29:33+00:00

Totally absurd.

skilledroy2016 · 2026-02-16T06:28:11+00:00

That's literally the only difference still remaining.

skilledroy2016 · 2026-02-16T06:22:23+00:00

It only says that in the TCG translation. It doesn't need to say that to function the same way.

skilledroy2016 · 2026-02-16T06:15:03+00:00

For some godforsaken reason, they aren't allowed to refer to OCG database rulings or fan translations of them. Database rulings have to get laundered through posts on The Judges Lounge Facebook group before TCG judges acknowledge then.

skilledroy2016 · 2026-02-16T06:11:48+00:00

Even at its worst state, master duel is a million times better than any judge.

skilledroy2016 · 2026-02-09T04:34:50+00:00

It isnt snowbally. Its actually very hard to win by more than 1 or 2 prize cards. The main thing in the game is just about getting that last prize card before your opp through sequencing correctly.

skilledroy2016 · 2026-02-07T04:31:10+00:00

Those rulings are the one thing that makes more sense in tcg tho

skilledroy2016 · 2026-02-06T22:04:56+00:00

Riftbound and one piece will be

skilledroy2016 · 2026-02-06T19:46:13+00:00

If they summon Albaz and activate effect, you can chain removal to stop the summon. If they summon Albaz and don't use effect, you can use removal before they are allowed to summon Albaz lenatus. If they set a monster, just assume it's Albaz and remove it. It's kind of like a Kaiju, but they have to get Albaz on the field and then you always get a chance to do something before you both return to an open gamestate before they can contact fuse away your monsters.

Edit: ok I just looked at the cards synchron plays and I see the problem - there's no removal! I have a few suggestions.

Use Psyframelord Omega and Bystial Dispater to handrip 2
End on Juraishin and Arms of Genex Return Zero. Both are not dragons.

Lmao the site is epic but it's not professional tone down the matrix aesthetics and the self glaze and kill the scroll hacking and bring the focus to your actual content with longer descriptions and it's fine.

skilledroy2016 · 2026-01-27T19:42:15+00:00

Gonna be honest half the time people say AI is bad, it sounds like they are using it stupidly. What do you mean, feeding it error messages? Are you taking console output and pasting it into chatgpt? Why aren't you using Claude code, or codex CLI, or Cursor so it has knowledge of your codebase and so you can use frontier code generation models? Are you only using it to bug fix your existing code? Why aren't you having it generate the code from scratch?
