Occasionally write bad chinstroking posts about game history and design philosophy.


I'm so sick of card game as decision metaphor in games, feels like deckbuilders and card game metaphors (two distinct but related by my distaste phenomena) have been trending for a while in the indie space and it just instantly kills my interest. It's not a well founded opinion I just find them aesthetically dull and generally dislike card games.

I've legit only come across a handful of deckbuilders that do deckbuilding right (imo). It's a kind of a cargo-cult mechanic where people just grab a design that is best used with nuance according to whatever game it's tailored for, and instead just shove cards in there. This is coming from me! Someone who likes card games in general!
