I’m a bit torn on this. On the one hand, it seems like it would be fun to battle friends, and I understand there’s a built in design for the “collectible” aspect that I really can’t be upset about.
On the other hand, the entire ad was about the “shiney collectibles” aspect, and the actual utility of those cards (ie, battling) was barely an afterthought. That doesn’t say great things about their priorities here.
I wonder how bad this pokemicrotransaction hell will be
Says 2 free packs a day, but thats proably while its mining all your data and killing your battery.
I am interested only because of the quick battle system, but I know its prolly fucked on the cost to actually compete.
Plus the 2 free packs are essentially nothing but advertising for the paid packs.
I don’t think so. The TCG online has no micro-transactions. You have to buy real packs to get digital packs in the game.
I believe this new game will just be advertisement for the TCG by itself, without the F2P stuff we are used to in other games. Giving people this app for free, and expect to convert some of them into TCG players who will buy real packs.
I still hold the GBC Pokemon TCG game as one of my all time favourite games.
Consider me immensely disappointed.
