Welp, guess I won't be updating. Not a fan of deck builders.

In deference to how good the game is though I will have a go of the update when it comes out, but as a separate install.

Oh no... a card and deck builder ?
I'll still try at some point, but i really don't like card games, it's less tactics and skill and more luck than anything, and i'm an unlucky bastard so i never manage to do good, even when i 100% understand the game.
Still love how the game looks so i'll give it a shot.

Yeah just like the others said the card game combat system doesn't really convince me.
Honestly i don't understand the need to change the combat system from turn based to this since you can create a tun based system which can be both challenging and fun to play( just look at darkest dungeon for example).
Still if the dev wants and can properly implement this system then more power to him, it's his game after all.
Didn't think I'd live long enough to see the H-game version of gwent tho.

Card system reminds me a little bit of last evil, which itself was a lewd clone of slay the spire. I loved last evil, so I am pleasantly surprised and excited to see this change.

Aw man, Card System is so very not my cup of tea. But since this game (so far) is one of my favorite ones, i am willing to at least give it a go, once it is implemented.

I really am not a fan of the card route, I feel like that system is a pain in the ass to make fun in a porn game. Hell, even in a normal game it's difficult to make a fun deck-builder.

I hope the update is good and all, but I can't say I'm looking forward to Saria's Deck of Cards.

Can't wait to test it out and see how combat feels with the card system. Definitely glad that it's going to be better balanced, I like having the chance of losing. Will there still be bodily corruption as the game progresses, and how will the enemies actions change based on this new system? Will it be similar to Slay the Spire where we can tell what the enemy will do, or will it be completely random? Will they essentially have their own hand each round that they can pick from?

I don't usually play card based games, but I did enjoy the Skunk games, so I'm willing to give this a try.

I think only some types card games are more luck than tactics. If it's the type that lets you freely adjust your deck (like most TCGs), then luck isn't as big of an influence. If it's the type where you reset your deck and start all over if you lose, luck is a bigger factor, but consistent victory usually hinges on your ability to exploit certain combos (like Slay the Spire). The only games where you're truly at the mercy of luck tend to have very limited capacity of what you can and can't do, like Rock-Paper-Scisssors style battle systems.

Personally, I think anything's fine as long as it doesn't fall into the same pitfall a lot of these card games end up in where there's only like one optimal combo/playstyle and everything else is pretty much hard mode or nonviable. And that shit only works when you have a massive card pool and thorough playtesting and rebalancing, which is why I'm worried.

Something tells me Velminth has been playing Library of Ruina
Library of Ruina's pretty alright. I feel like its stylishness and card variety makes it pretty engaging. It would be hard to emulate its progression system considering that it runs on bulk. You don't get bored as quickly because you're constantly forced to change out your deck loadout as better cards/abilities/stats come in.

If you're wondering how far I've gotten... Two words: Love Town

Cardgame combat is boring. I'd rather it stay as-is.
Not being able to choose what move you want to do becuase of RNG is shit. Especially if most of the moves are lewd position selections.

Don't waste time with this, just keep it an RPG and work on more content.

Given how many cards he's already done it's not going back any time soon. You should give it a chance!
