Sigh

If there's one overwhelming problem with this game, this cartoon has outlined it well. 

I came across it because of this video and how it spotlights the comment from the Mothership that 'we meant what we said at the time' as an excuse for why something they said was true in 2015 isn't true now. (About nine minutes in.)

And yes, ten years is a long time-long enough for the playerbase to know that we are going to get screwed over in order for Hasbro to make money. 

That their word is not bond.

Which is why it gets all the weirder when it comes to things like the Reserve List. And it shores up two notions for me personally: I am going to ignore as much of Universes Beyond as I can and I'm going to proxy cards if they get too expensive. 

My entertainment time is worth more to me than the effort they put into obfuscating the truth. 

Ah well. On to 2026. See you next week!
