This can’t be the end…

I’ve been playing PTCGO since 2011. It has been my game, my hobby, my past time. I have been playing PTCGL for a few weeks now. My only hope is that on April 1st that this entire game is announced as an elaborate April fools prank. I am not adverse to change, I am very flexible, and very patient, but my message to developers is… Are you people actually serious about this?! Are you players out there actually going to go along with this? I know this game is technically still in beta, but it is virtually unplayable! You took an artistic masterpiece, and turned it into a 8-bit joke. PTCGO played like a flawless tabletop simulator. PTCGL plays like a low budget mobile app. Even with an enormous monitor, I can barely see the cards in play without clicking on each one individually. And with the tablet version, it’s difficult to even see anything at all. The cards on your bench are essentially reduced to old-school video game tiles from the 90s. Did you intend to create some sort of video game nostalgia? Because the UI definitely feels like circa 1996. It is bland, it is tasteless, and most importantly it is virtually impossible to play. I can get used to a complete revamp and features and approach; i.e. micro transactions, three forms of currency, and even the lack of the ability to trade. But if I can’t even see what is going on in this miniaturized, excuse for a game board, it’s just not worth playing! I realize that the point of any game such as this is to make money for the company. I have no problem with that. In fact, I’d be willing to pay a substantial monthly subscription fee if it meant I could receive a quality product. However, if you don’t redesign this embarrassment from the bottom up, I predict this game is doomed to fail miserably. I will wait to see what this turns into after the Beta phase, but until then I will not be wasting my time.
