Declaration of RESISTANCE
Posted: 06 April 2013, 13:13
Background:
Collectible card games suffer from inherent balance and fairness issues. Consensus stops here, since different players are pushing different agenda. For example:
Old-timers claim that the correct setup of CCGs is to slowly gain cards over time. (They are entitled to have advantage over newcomers,right?)
Smarties argue that "fair" is when everybody get easy access to all cards. (And as a side effect, they get edge by their skill. Also the "collectible" part of the game is ruined, but never mind.)
Rich players just hand out money and the Dark Overlords of the game are more than happy to sell less paying customers as punchbags.
Some CCGs handle the outlined issues better, others worse. I will not elaborate more, I will just point out that Eredan can get very nasty unless you are willing to devote "significant resources" to the game.
To get leverage, I am forming clan RESISTANCE, its description says it all:
"Free and low budget players sharing tips and strategies on how to survive and enjoy the wild world of Eredan".
The clan is international, communication is in English.
Everybody is welcome, just send me message (my IGN: Xabelius)
