Thanks, that’s useful, I think it’s convinced me to finally switch
How do you find it as a daily driver in terms of QoL features such as banking apps and payments etc?
I think that’s the final nail in the coffin for me. I don’t wanna play pop culture soup, I wanna play magic. Im out.
My only gripe is pretty straight forward: the cost to play.
I LOVE draft, but have been unable to play it on Arena due to the high cost of entry. They allow standard play for free, but paywall draft. I know I can technically grind dailies to get enough gold, and then if im lucky enough and win enough I can earn enough back to chain another draft, but this is eventually a losing game, a bit like a slot machine.
I just have zero interest in grinding standard, and refuse to pay almost as much as physical draft for non-tangible, digital version. It feels very predatory.
Lets hope this goes somewhere. EU is punching well when it comes to putting a stop to rampant monopolisation, greed, and deceptive conduct of tech snd digital companies.
I don’t do early access, but looking forward to the full release to give this one a go
There’s a pre-release for this product? That seems strange
Could be good if they move beyond young-adult/teen themes
Arena is even worse value in my opinion. At least with in-person drafts you get some money back in the cards you get (sell anything of value). I can’t justify paying the high cost they charge for *digital *drafts.
It’s a real shame too, I love drafting, but there’s no way I’m going to pay AU$20 for a single digital draft. I can’t believe anyone else does tbh.
I was ambivalent to the play boosters change because it was just the culmination of what we had seen coming for years… increasing the cost of the game for us players.
‘Project booster fun’ was always about asking the question “how fast and far can we push the price-point up for boosters?” They threw a bunch of options out, tested the water, and ultimately decided enough players would pay the higher price-point for the same cost to print. Pure, unfettered greed.
Magic was already expensive enough as it is. I won’t be forking out for in-person drafts at the new price. Bootleg cards serve my playgroups needs at a fraction of the costs. Greedy WotC execs don’t respect players? We shouldn’t respect them.
WotC exec is schizophrenic. They will never give up trying to give players less while charging them more. The never-ending cancer of “line must got up every year”.
You can just create a sustainable business model guys… one where costs are recovered and a modest return is made. You don’t need to give in to the squeeze from Hasbro to milk your product into the ground… and become like every other empty shell of a product they own.
/all does seem to be devolving into just a shitty news feed of US bullshit. I try and block as much as possible, but it’s not perfect. Lemmy needs a way to categorise and filter out stuff like blatant news links. I want memes and discussion, not ads and news.
There’s no better ad for piracy than the greed of corporations. Don’t let ads shit in your head. They disrespect you, you disrespect them.
Yeh. I’m right there with you.
Lol. Nice try. Don’t think that works around here.
Looks great. Talos principle is hands down the best FPS puzzler
Almost as if the value of art can’t, nor should, be measured by it’s monetary value.
Wake me up when they get it working with their linux drivers.
Look up “gl inet” routers
