Some developers of the game actually lead the initiative to review bomb the game to send a message to Sony to not mess with the game they made to make people happy.

"Destroy all humanity it cannot be regenerated" is a legitimately good manga. The attention to detail about the decks both casual and competitive and the hype and flop cards during pre release is true to my memories. In addition to the portrayal of late 90s mtg, it also puts a great deal of care to the characters and development.

@GreenMachineGo 23 дня назад

I think the anime was a big part of everyone's love for yugioh and it doesn't catch kids attention now because it's not on every Saturday and parents aren't probably showing it to kids

@dee2273 22 дня назад

For me my dad was the parent that got me into the card game. He bought the yugi and Pegasus decks and I used to play with him late nights at the hospital (he was on call at the hospital) when I got back into the game this memory is really what keeps me in and I’m looking forward to sharing the experience with my own son

Great pod as always. Can't believe it's been an entire year already. Seems like yesterday I got back in to Yu-gi-oh and stumbled upon your then newly started podcast! Every week since has been a blessing. Regarding my favorite fandom I'll have to go with either Star Wars (EU ofc since there are so many great books) or Warhammer (strictly due to Luetins lore videos), but really there are sooo many to choose from it's difficult to say. I'm well versed in many fandoms, and damn proud of it, too! Hoping for another great year with the POT (or pod? What does it do??) of greed! Much love from Sweden

"I think the new XYZ stuff is interesting" oh boy, let me tell ya, they already have an FTK with them. Also, the big concern about linking a PSN account, is that there are constant data breaches and the Steam players dont want their data compromised. In regards to Toys for Bob, its not Microsoft who's stalling any new games, it was Activision who forced ALL of their studios to work on Warzone 1, so there was no room to make a new game.

@Roddan96 21 день назад

My favorite fandom has to be either Pokemon or Yugioh. I always jump between the two.

@GhostlyGhost333 22 дня назад

I have my friends to thank for getting me into Yugioh. My folks were the type to believe DnD was devil worship. So you can imagine their thought process to Yugioh. If it weren’t for my friends, I wouldn’t even be on the internet to this day either, as my folks were against high tech and internet for entertainment. Considering I never discovered things like Markiplier till I was in college. And I still had those phones with collapsible keyboard. My folks eventually saw the damage they did, seeing as I didn’t know anything about current tech or what was popular, like Yugioh, that they eventually caved and let the reigns loose.

@jesusoyervides5197 22 дня назад

I don't know why studios haven't realized that going to the movies is expensive, 2 tickets is like $30+ and on top of that the snacks/theater food is expensive. People are broke right now, and also don't want to put money in the hands of those studios, I mean they pay millions to their actors which is insane. I also probably would go see a movie that has amazing visual effects, like a godzilla movie where I need a spectacle. I am not gonna go to the movies to watch a movie that doesn't have that. Also I don't think that it helps when streaming services will have the movie on their platform within a few months. I would just wait. I just wait to see it.

@Longlius 22 дня назад

I think Helldivers 2 was also partially a case of the figurative straw breaking the camel's back. So many games require you to make accounts for services you'll never use outside of playing one or two games you've purchased on Steam anyway (Ubisoft was notorious for this) that I think people are just kind of over it. Helldivers 2 was unfortunately the game that was in the hot seat when this specific frustration boiled over and people decided they were tired of making new accounts.

@anthonynorwood8441 22 дня назад

The biggest problem is they allowed people in over 170 countries who if this happened wouldn't be able to play it to purchase the game. They knew before release the account linking was going to happen. And made the incredibly anti consumer and possibly illegal move anyway

@PIE50100 14 дней назад

I want a Joey Wheeler structure deck, we need Red Eyes support yesterday.

@Ninja_Geek 10 дней назад

At this point, I feel like the preconstructed decks are just as much for dropping 1-2 legacy support cards as they are for the more casual and/or nostalgic yugioh players who don't want to drop $100's of dollars on a deck when they probably don't even play the game that often.

I've been struggling to get my Nordic and Spirit deck to play competitively on EDOpro.. I love tagging but half the time my tag-partners quit immediately upon seeing what I play, it's kinda put me off it recently being unable to play my favourites so I'm taking a break.. Even my old noble knight deck with a little of it's new fire-knight support doesn't even run well with them locking into it's archetype after the ban of isolde, I've no choice but to fall off of the game.. An Englander without his lore icons, I suppose it had to happen eventually.. I can't be bothered with the backgroundless new stuff that's far from heart and home.

@Dezrakaz 22 дня назад

I believe they would think Pokémon would just be worth a lot anyway, the Magic guy would know he could sell whatever to a card shop for trade ins, and the yugioh guy would have to know their worth or know nothing and they see blue eyes and think it’s $700 for no reason.

@oddishu 23 дня назад

I'm so glad Alec mentioned the Magic manga! Swear to god, I was literally gonna mention it in last week's episode after Paul had talked about his experience playing Magic but just never had the time to. Yeah so for starters, I don't really know much about Magic, haven't really played the game but I started reading the manga super causally earlier last month and it's a good read! For those that aren't familiar with the story, it's just a middle school rom-com with Magic The Gathering as its main center focus. The art is fantastic whenever the characters play the game. I just wish I knew more about Magic as a whole because the author clearly knows what they're talking about. They talk about deck strats, meta, even the ban list or in this case, the set rotation. I highly recommend this to anyone that likes magic or even those like me who don't know a thing about it but like anime and a nice simple middle school romance story, theres PLENTY of that here, no worries. I'm still early in the story but theres even already a little love triangle going on. Upon further doing research, it seems that this is only gonna be a digital release so far which is a shame because as a physical manga collector, I would love to have it physically. Hopefully its come physically too someday.

With HiFi in particular there was too much hyperfocusing in the media on the fact that the studio was closed. But little to none on the fact that they were bought because they were already in dire straights. And how the studio had a mass exodus months ago. I would love to point a finger at the usual assumptions but they’re just not accurate enough for me to do that. Games development turned a corner on cost some years ago, that also wasn’t widely reported or shared. The math just doesn’t point at any one thing for me to commit to pointing at one thing.

Completely disagree on the world's mat theory. They did the same for Japan World's last year where they sold the Dark Magician and Blue-eyes playmats from the 2012 WCS.

It's a shame to hear Shinji Mikami's Studio Tango Gameworks is getting decimated like this after he left. When Hi-Fi Rush is such a wonderful game Microsoft could've backed into a console seller sequel, cus it's the only Xbox game people care about in the last couple of years. Apparently Limited Run Games is still gonna release a physical for its PS5 release, and I definitely have to preorder this after learning this sad news! LRG run an open order format these days, so don't feel it's pointless to get a copy like back then's early morning scalper raids. IMO there deserves to be as many copies out there for a wonderful game like Hi-Fi Rush. Just have to wait on the shadow drop which is an honest pain.

Favorite fandom is a tricky question. I don't think the idea of "fandom" in itself has much substance to it. It implies community, but community means more than "a group of people with something in common." Your neighbor who helps you jump your car in the winter, that's community. That doesn't really answer the question though lol. Now that I've buried the lead, I'll say MLP fans are my favorite group of fans. Lots of memories there.

Sadley getting to the movie bit before goin to bed, but will finish pod tomorrow. Will say: Yes, people are burnt our on super hero stuff, but not in the way big hollywood esecs think. We have seen movies get major hype that aren't super hero related, ie barbie and oppenheimer. There can be hype for movies. I think the issue is, we were so spoiled on good stories from the super hero flicks, that other movies just pale in comparison, and when our super hero movies flop, then what's the point of goin out? We also gotta see about the cost of going to a movie. Where I am, tickets can go anywhere from 10-20 bucks, depending on the day and what the movie is (unless it's tues, I think it's just 5$). That's just tickets, not including either going out to eat prior or after movie, or even during. Going to the movies, I think use to be a family thing or date thing, then it exploded with hero movies to become an everything experience, now that that died, we're back to it being a family thing or date thing, but shit, going out weekly on family night movie night, or goin out for a date including a movie just, may not be worth
