ГВИНТ: Ведьмак. Карточная игра

never play games where inside must pay, witchout pay game is useless because you will lost everything, so you must pay all time more to play more, this what you will pay is only enought till time that gamers will pay more and you will lost everything and every game all the time

The game is a mess right now. It has undergone some radical changes and desperately needs more time to figure itself out once again. The major issues that are plaguing the game right now are: - there is very little diversity, everything seems to play out the same way. The cards are different, but most of them either damage or boost, no matter what faction or archetype you are playing. Contentwise it's like 75% of what was available before the patch, but it feels like it is only 25% - games take forever to finish, unlike the old Gwent there is a tonne of micromanagement to do and on top of that slow animations, poor performance and lack of autopass creates a truly sluggish pace of each turn. You either play a dude that deals one damage, activates one ore two abilities that deal one damage or boost for one each, pass, then wait a minute for your opponent to do the same and hope they don't forget to pass. - the game is poorly optimized, don't bother trying it out on your old laptop - too much bad design and lack of balance. Too many cards are either jacks of all trades or binary, which means they either overperform or suck. - if you played beta Gwent the new version of the game feels more like a completely new game where you have to micromanage every point of boost or damage rather than "back to the roots" Gwent with crazy combos and goofy decks. Yes, it looks 3 times better, but don't be surprised to find it dull and devoid of any fun.

What they added since Beta: -Provision System -Reward Trees -Tons of RNG What they removed since Beta: -over 100 cards -over 10 Archetypes -faction identity, basically all decks play for their neutral finishers -3rd row -Blacklisting in mulligan phase

If you loved TW3 and the fantastic card mini game named "Gwent", this is not the game for you. After two years of Beta, it has changed drastically, turning from a card game to something else. Sure, you use your card, but they put some units on a battlefield, you have a leader - not a leader card - that damage the opponent monsters or soldiers, you have artifacts that can be used every turn to damage or to strenght the units present on the battlefield and so on. The game is slow, not very responsive, and completely different from how it used to be. A single game last for tens of minutes and you need houndreds of games to complete even a stagional event. If you are a new player, it will be very difficult to be competitive without investing real money, because while old users often have almost all the cards, the new one begin with some very poor and weak decks. To conclude, if you loved that fantastic mini game of Gwent on TW3 and you want to play it again in multiplayer, unfortunately you can't do it. You may like this strategic game, but keep in mind that it's a totally different product.

So, Gwent. My first experience of the game was in The Witcher 3 and it was a fantastic game within a game that was a refreshing change from the bland dice poker of the previous two games. I was excited to hear that they were making a standalone version and joined the Closed Beta. The premise was similar to original Gwent but extra cards and effects etc had increased its depth and levels of strategy. When the Open Beta came out I stopped playing, partly because initially I didn't like the changes they'd brought in. After a few months I decided to give it a try and realised that the changes made in no way detracted from the game, some of them improved it further and it was still brilliant. I liked the new ranked mode and seasons and I was steadily building a collection of cards with a number of different decks with one standout highly competitive deck that I used for ranked play. When I originally read the post on Homecoming, I was worried. I couldn't see why they wanted to make any of the changes that they were talking about, and now that it's been released by views are only further confirmed. My main issues with the game are: They said they wanted the game to feel like an epic battle. I never wanted this, it was always brilliant as a simulated tabletop card game. The game is simplified both by reducing the number of rows and dulling down card effects. Games are much slower (manual end turn is so annoying). The end of beta rewards were ridiculous, I can probably get every card available now. Max 10 cards in hand is incredibly annoying. Provisions system makes deck building a grind. Tutorial is a pointless time sink. Lack of mulligans in later rounds means you're stuck with whatever you've got. Having to actively use cards which worked passively before (like Yennefer) seems entirely unnecessary. Massive point swings seem to have disappeared, its now a slow attrition of your opponents points. And in the end they've done this just to push Thronebreaker.
