You are never too old to have strong opinions about trading card games.

this is a super late response but that is such advanced copium that i gotta respect it

if it wasn't like the most obviously ai-generated hooey ever i'd at least think it was so conceptually stupid it was kind of funny as someone who doesn't play magic

never knew you were such a 'mario and wario' fan

genesys is cool, but it's unfortunately a bad format simply because i cannot play runick

i never realized there was a correlation between me not playing tomb raider and me being ace but suddenly things make a lot more

no they make as much sense as they used to actually

the songs for the first levels are absolutely a coughing baby vs hydrogen bomb kind of situation, hard agree

super paper mario.

yeah, like. . . 60 bucks was already a big asking price for a game for me. i hardly used my switch 1. i want the kirby air ride sequel but like, if i get it, it's gonna have to be at a yard sale or craigslist or something

funny thing for me to drop last night without elaboration. at their core, they're (typically) 1v1 competitive games with an emphasis on improvement. i don't play as many fighting games as i ought to, but a lot of my improvement in card games has been FROM studying fighting game players.

5. Trading card games and fighting games are the same thing on a fundamental level.

4. I don't get the hate for pineapple on pizza. It's a good 'sometimes topping'. Apparently some people have an aversion to plain toppingless cheese, too?

Like, it's weird how performatively heated some people get about pizza toppings. I don't yell at people just because I don't love pepperoni.

i'm no music expert but i have a lot of thoughts here. it really just works in a way that i just think the homestuck version misses the mark. which is a shame, HS really had some banger tunes, and, hot take alert, i think toby fox's music is generally good
July 23, 2025 at 7:06 AM
i think the undertale version is a really great 'natural' evolution. the low drone doesn't work in the context of undertale, so it's wisely cut. sans's leitmotif through the rest of the game is sort of a goofier, pared-down version of megalovania, giving it time to gestate in the player's head
July 23, 2025 at 7:04 AM
the low, droning intro only really works for the halloween hack version. just adding the butt rock guitar and make the melody busier and calling it a day without really adding anything. . . it's a step backward.

When YGO is in a bad state, I don't go to another card game, I just end up wishing YGO was good again. No other game even tries to be like it. Both mechanically and stylistically, it really sticks out.

That's why I fell in love with the game. It's why it's a shame no one else is tryin' to do it.

3. pack filler cards in yugioh are good. no other game really consistently prints bad cards that are mechanically interesting like this. Weird summoning conditions! Weird effects!
