GWENT: The Witcher Card Game

The player base absolutely sucks

I've logged nearly 400 hours so I feel it's about time a gave it a review. First and fore most it's an excellent and properly addictive game and full props to CDPR for keeping it free to play, accessible to all with the option of DLC'S and numerous updates. The cards/artwork is beautiful, particularly in their premium versions and the soundtrack is awesome as well. For the game itself I have nothing but mostly praise. HOWEVER it has one and VERY infuriating drawback (which is in no way the games fault) And that is the player base.. 99% of players seem to have a SERIOUS lack of creativity and originality, opting for premade copy and paste decks instead of spending time building their own. Extremely frustrating to know your opponents deck/cards within the first 2 cards they play, it gets EXTREMELY repetitive and boring playing against the same decks time and time again. Occasionally you will come against someone with an original deck but don't count on it being very often at all. Personally I cannot overstate how frustrating I find this and the more I play the more repetitive it has become. I don't really know if there's anything that can actually be done about this and again it's not totally the game's fault just the total lack of creativity leaves you a little lost for words. It's bad. Another minor nit-pick is the messaging system leaves quite a lot to be desired. At best it's extremely basic. It would be wonderful to tell these unoriginal copy and paste players just how unoriginal they are..Unfortunately you can't. 😌 You just got to put up with it. Rant over. It's a good game.. just the player base sucks.
