JO Writes and Draws (COMMS OPEN)

And somehow the biggest card game fumble of the month is this one. Hat is unbelievably dedicated and thoughtful and knowledgeable and just all the great things. Hearthstone is a much worse game without him representing players and creators from the inside.

I don't know what to say about Marvel Snap. I've tried really hard to give feedback and help Second Dinner find a path to players, tried to give an ear and a voice to players and other creators, tried to give the game its chance to shine for being so much fun despite all the frustration. I even gave to charity to hopefully infuse a tiny little bright spot into all this. But the game just takes and takes and takes. The Snap team's message today indicates that won't be changing, and I fear it might be getting even worse. I'm tired. I just want to have fun playing goofy decks for you all. I guess I'll keep doing that for a while? I'm sorry I can't do more right now. I tried.

Let's flip the script on this Kid Omega fiasco. I just donated the ad revenue from my Kid Omega video to the charity Child's Play, and it'd be amazing to get them some $100 donations in honor of Kid Omega (or of course anything you feel good about giving). Here's a link: childsplaycharity.org/ If you didn't know, Child's Play was started by Penny Arcade (yes the dudes with the variants and bundles), and supports children's hospitals by providing games to kids. My wife was a nurse at our local children's hospital for 10 years and has seen the big impact this can have on keeping them happy and healthy for long hospital stays. Maybe we can make some sick kids lives a little better!
