If only there was an app or game that wasn't shit. Konami can't be bothered.

Yeah. I mean YGO Pro is fine, but unlike every other small game company who have been ADDING Linux support to their games, they are the first ones I've ever seen who actually HAD Linux support and REMOVED it! So absurd.
The really annoying thing is Konami has shut down a bunch of the YGO Pro Derivatives, while not producing a decent dueling game themselves, because as is well noted through their recent history, Konami are stupid.
Apparently they do have a dueling game out right now, but it has a completely different rule set and meta because it's a cut down mobile version, which only has mostly really old cards. Like, Pre-Synchro old.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=w98OsmVaUbEOn one side, I'm REALLY not sure if this is real or not. But on the other side, it's Yu Gi Oh GX....soo... Also, I think this is from the duel we saw on TV the morning after the Misawa ROH show.

discord.gg/duelistsunite It looks like these guys have a working Unity prototype that works on all platforms which is cool It's kinda ugly, but it works. I found out about it because the head developer sent me a message on the Unity forum seeing if I would be interested in helping him. I'm not sure how much I could do for him, but I might see what I can do Yu Gi Oh is hard now...

Do you wanna try this sometime? I'm betting we could get you a good Kaiju or Super Quantal deck going. Madolches got some support too, they have a few new extra deck monsters now, I've dueled a few Madolche players in this new format, their decks weren't as tight as yours was in it's prime, when you were beating me pretty regularly.
The thing about this format is it's all or nothing, if you survive past Turn 2, you will probably win. These days everyone just blows their entire wad the first turn, then if you can somehow survive that first turn and have an answer like Dark Hole, you pretty much win because they have just gotten so used to riding the rails of their archetype that they have no idea how to improvise when things go wrong

I mean, it's kinda different though, there was a lot less watching people play Solitaire before. The power creep at the time was a little less
Just a few minutes ago I won a duel because the other player spent so long on TURN FUCKING 2 just summoning monsters that they literally ran out of time on the turn clock. At one point I paged away to do other stuff while he was doing this, and when he had 1 second on the clock, I typed "I win" in the chat and I hope it made him mad.

Yeah, and you remember the YGOPro1 clock was 3 minutes? The YGOPro2 clock is 5 minutes, AND you gain time as you do stuff. So it's MORE than 5 minutes.
And he spent ALL of that time just summoning more and more monsters. He had me beat multiple times, and he JUST KEPT GOING. And he hasn't been the only one to do this to me. At least when they used to do this you'd get to see a Shooting Quasar Dragon or something cool like that. But no, just all lame stuff swarming the field. I think they just didn't know what they were doing, or were expecting me to just quit from boredom.
I wish Maxx C wasn't banned, I would duel some of these people and just have my entire deck in my hand.

So I got YGOPro2 working again, and I've been experimenting with some new archetypes, and I think I found one I'm starting to like Whats cool about it is the whole archetype tells this huge story with each card that ties into the stories of like 5 other archetypes. It's basically the RPG archetype, and it has one of my favorite card arts in the entire game  It;s up there with this one  |

www.youtube.com/watch?v=ch0ACDFffNkI've listened to a few songs from the Japanese version of Yu Gi Oh, and I keep thinking "Did they even watch the show?! Do they know what it's about!? This show has NO business having such good music." I feel like maybe it further highlights why Yu Gi Oh is so good. It takes everything I hate about the stereotypical shonen anime, and pushes it to 11, and does so using something as ridiculous as a card game as it's central focus, and this combination makes it a hilarious parody of that style of anime, in a setting where the type of posturing and monologuing one might see in this sort of anime actually makes sense, and is infact hilarious instead of cringy. Combine that with the classic anime corner cutting, excessive number of episodes, and the ridiculous changes it went through for it's western adaption that made it even more hilarious, with absolutely perfect english voice casting to really punctuate it all, it is the perfect parody of anime as a genre. It feels like comedy that really commits to the bit rather than what parody looks like nowadays where the scriptwriter has to constantly break the forth wall to point out something obvious or pat themselves on the back to show how smart they are for writing their snarky satire.

haha, yeah, the corner cutting. i watched a couple scenes of yu gi oh on some youtube video a little while ago, i never noticed how cheap the animation was before. it did make me want to rewatch the early seasons though.

I mean the corner cutting got REALLY bad in the seasons they straight up added in for the Western release, like the virtual world arc and the Oricalcos arc, which were infamous examples.
I remember in some of the Oricalcos episodes Yugi's hair would just dynamically change size between cuts from being ridiculously big to insanely big. And of course Joey's ridiculous face

remember that never ending story arc on kaiba island on their way to the big duelist tournament or something. it was totally out of nowhere and insanely long, a total detour from the main plot. we should do a yu gi oh rewatch.

Yep, thats where they inserted one of the new seasons, just right in the middle of the battle city tournament, perfect time to introduce a huge character arc that didn't exist in the original show. They literally had the blimp on the way to battle city finals get abducted, everyone forget the tournament is happening, they escape and like "OH YEAH, THATS what we were doing before! The Yu Gi Oh abridged of that era was amazing. |

I'm disappointed because I found out Konami finally made a good Yu Gi Oh game, but it's only on Windows
I think Season 1 is on Yu Gi Oh's official Youtube channel now
