I absolutely adore this game, but imo it's a terrible candidate for a remaster. The graphics were already stylized so I doubt a graphics update would make much difference. It's a puzzle game so the replayability is already low. And I can't imagine that developer commentary get people excited about buying the game again.
I wish this was successful, but I can see why this went sideways.
Oof that's a tough one... mull to 5 is rough, they probably figured they'd have a better chance to draw those lands, especially if the curve was good.
Esper taking a huge chunk of the field, but honestly still pretty diverse metagame. It might have something to do with the bigger card pool. I'm excited to see what comes out on top!
There are dozens of us! I think the book is enjoyable if all you're expecting is a fun but shallow ride. If it's been hyped up, it's going to be disappointing. A lot of reviews treat it like the pinnacle of the genre, which is ridiculous.
I agree with your main points, but I don't think that just because something has been the status quo it doesn't deserve scrutiny. There are those out there who feel that this is an issue. For them, the best time to explore it is now. At this point it's futile, but I think it's important that we re-evaluate our laws and policies when there's a group asking for it. We just need to make sure the people making the decisions at the end of the day are competent...
Poor Wii U... I had forgotten they had a TP remaster for it. I hope they end up bringing it and the WW remaster to Switch or whatever console is after it.
If you have access to it, I recommend playing the Majora's Mask remaster on 3DS. I also tried to start the N64 version a few times and couldn't stay motivated until I played the remaster.
I hope the game picks up for you! I remember enjoying the game a lot, the items were fun and that final boss was a blast. I also really liked the art style, though I can see why some people didn't.
I haven't played it since launch, but I'm really hoping they do a remaster for it soon. I'm surprised they did Skyward Sword before it...
Wow that's impressive! I can't imagine the time and dedication it took to create this.
Honestly, that's great that you enjoy them! I think the negativity is the sets aren't self-contained. Once they're released, they're a part of magic and the eternal formats forever. Especially for those who have played for decades, that identity shift of the game is jarring.
My take is the two UB and MH3 in the lineup are very polarizing, leading to negative perceptions overall.
Which level(s) will you be playing at? I personally prefer the Barbarian class's flavor over the Fighter, but depending on level, you'll get more attacks and ASIs as a Fighter.
Overall, I'd say a Champion Fighter would be more straightforward, but a Berserker Barbarian would be more fun to play.
