Oh god there’s going to be a League of Legends digital card game.

YOU DONT NEED THIS

Free to play though. Daft not to.

EPIMER!
Nothing in life is truly free!

Only if you value your time, which I do not.

Whoever it was at Riot games who watched Valve’s struggles launching Artifact and thought, “gee I gotta get me some of that action!” is in dire need of some kind of intervention.

Valve brought that on themselves though with a terrible business plan

I liked it

They’ll be laughing themselves sick at the current Hearthstone controversy though, this is a huge opportunity for them to pick up disgruntled players.

I know you did. I didnt say anything of the quality of the game. Just the business model!

I liked the business model too! I hate the part of a F2P card game where you’re playing a pile of shite to try to grind out rewards for the cards that you actually want to be playing. I’m at that stage in MtG: Arena at the moment and it’s a good thing that I quite like my grinding deck, otherwise I wouldn’t be throwing money at the problem, I’d be quitting.

I think the problem is that the business model was very appealing to actual (physical) card game players and abhorrent to people who are willing to convert their time into digital cards at a very, very poor rate, i.e. the HS model.

No sympathy for the “but mah rewards!” crowd either. At a certain point you have to be playing a game because you enjoy playing it and not as a Skinner box.

Anyway the Artifact 2.0 rumours won’t go away. My prediction is they’ll turn it into something that the autochess twats like and I won’t.

It feels like autochess is dead. I dont hear much about it anymoree?

I’ve lost track of which one is most popular but I think between the Riot one, the Valve one, and the other one is still got player numbers?

Hope it fucks off into the sun though.

enjoying the new fortnite chapter a lot. the interface and level-up mechanics all seem a lot better and well thought out. still a few things i’ve not worked out (benches to upgrade weapons?) but it’s good to dive back into it again, and I like the new map.

Thinking I should get Disco Elysium. The reviews say the writing is fantastic, it’s pompously obsessed with its own world, the mechanics are annoying and it has Felix Biederman in it apparently so that’s all my buttons hit.

Outer Worlds out next week though. Not sure I can justify both.
