>>36292369this is a bullshit bait picture obviously, as it pretty much appeals only to the people who watched the anime when kids and asked their parents to buy yugi's deck or whatever.
The actual card game was very fun, even more so than pokemon, back when I used to play it regularly. Understanding the game's mechanics was easy because you had console/handheld games that were released p much every year, and were more or less up to date, allowing the player to learn through trial and error playing against AIs.
With the advent of Pendulums, there were really any yugioh games around that let you learn the new mechanics, only years later some bullshit tag force (and that other yugioh game for the pc that i cant remember the name) was released for the psp, but, as it's commonly the case for the newer yugioh games, the game was poorly designed, as if the people who made it never even bothered to actually play it, to find out what it actually needed. That was mainly the reason why I dropped it.
Learning what a certain deck is capable of, by playing against actual people sucks an enormous dick because I have to constantly ask him to stop his play so I can read what his card does.
