Zazubat Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 Because I don't buy any cards anymore, not that I used to that much, I have just gone online, and you know, it's not really the same. When you got every card at your hand, it's not fun to actually experiment, I mean sure you still can, you actually can more, but not everyone has 3 of every card at their hand, so it's hard to do so, and in a way more fun I feel. Do you feel the same, is it more fun to actually take a night out designing a new deck, or do you just go on DN and mess around their for half an hour?

Strider Tigerwolf Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 I intend to trade off all my cards, my binder, and most of my sleeves (except 70) for a Fire Fist Deck. I've played it online, now it's time for the real thing. Overall though, making things online is pretty fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catterjune Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 If money weren't object, I'd pick playing IRL. But that's not saying much, since a majority of the time I'd pick the IRL version over the simulation. I'd rather have a car in real life over having one in GTA. I'd rather have a real life Charmander over one in Pokemon Emerald. That being said, since money IS an object as well as availability I'd pick the DN version. It's much more convenient and much easier to find a duel and etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 If DN charged you to make decks online via virtual packs for example, would people prefer playing online (assuming there were virtual tournaments etc..) as opposed to playing physical Yugioh? I ask because Magic does this with Magic Online and each method of play gives people an option. For one, playing online is cheaper and easier for convenience (to pick up and play, and also trade). However, playing in real life can also be more sentimental if you like to have a physical collection and interact with actual people. Translating that into DN as it currently is, I prefer it much more since its free and I am allowed to play whenever I want and not have to worry about finding other players.

Aerion Brightflame Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 I prefer playing online because no one in my locals actually plays the game around me. Which would make the investment pointless frankly, since I know I suck at the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hounds Of Anubis Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 I think it'd be much better if Konami actually did make a yugioh version of MTGO. Nothing flashy or anything like they tried to make Yugioh Online, but just something that's simple to use, and they actually update frequently, with the ability to buy packs and trade using a form of purchased currency (like how MTGO uses tickets). They could host online YCS's or pseudo-regionals at least, similar to how MTGO has online PTQs. I'd play it, especially if they got a yugioh cube online like MTGO. (seriously, I've said MTGO more than any other yugioh related word in this post. But that's because it's a seriously good program for how simplistic it appears.) Of course, they'd have to do a lot of market research to see if it'd be a success first, and unfortunately Yugioh Online didn't seem to do well enough to really assume they'd ever try another version. Just wanted to say that, since everything I really wanted to say has been said by other people anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cute Rotten Yoshika Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 i think that if konami does it well they could get away with a paid service. whether they would ever do it well is of course up for debate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly really like to play irl, but I don't want to spend my money. There is one deck that I want to finish, but I have most of the pieces anyways. After that I probably won't buy anymore cards.

ihop Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 Money is little object for me as I've spent a lot earlier on in my career and now I have such a big card base and I'm also very good at trading that I can get pretty much anything I want without having to spend too much money, in fact all I spend money on now is things I feel I'll make profit on e.g. collections or rip-offs or cards I really need and are hard to trade for e.g. Jurrac Guaiba, Maxx C. Because of this I vastly prefer playing IRL and go to a locals almost every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wanna play Yugioh IRL, but I don't have the money. I started making a Chaos Dragon Deck by buying a Dragons Collide and intending on buying more before the banlist but the banlist happened and all the key cards are too expensive.

Canadian Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I predict that if Magic became free to play online, Yugioh would probably go bankrupt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's really no reason why anyone is playing IRL anymore, besides tourneys. [/quote] Nobody wants to use DN over IRL because- a) It's full of idiots. Like Zero said, cards look much better IRL c) The game is faster and you can't misclick d) Cards like Pot of Avarice/Pot of Duality are much less effort to use e) IRL cards never stop working. If you really want to play IRL with friends but can't afford the cards, use proxies or something, I guarantee you it's still a million times better than DN.
