(More customer reviews)Caution: Not for beginners
This game is is not an introductory into the world of yu-gi-oh. There is no tutorial in how to play the card game. You are expected to know how in this game, and if you don't then pray you know someone who can teach you on the fly. That being said, you really only need to be a beginner at the game at first. The first AI's are simple to beat, do not play their decks to the fullest and can easily be 'frightened' into playing defense when they really should be playing offense.
Caution: Build, customize, expirement or lose
That said, the game does offer a multitude of cards. Do not expect your mix and match starter deck to lead you to beating the game. Be willing to expierement as you purchase new packs with duel points, or DP, the in game currency provided for dueling as well as can be found. If you do not adjust your deck to a particular strategy, prepare for the frustration of being unable to progress. Once again though there is an upside. With over 4500 cards, there is a great many strategies you can base your decks on, and just as many 'tweaks' you can do to make that strategy better.
Caution: Frustrating traps
We asked for it in past games, and we have it in this one: The ability to play a trap at every applicable moment. Seriously, I don't think we knew what we were asking for. Be prepared to by rapidly hitting the B button if you want to save a trap or quick play magic card for later. Just for an example, this is how an opponent's turn might work out:
Draw phase: do you want to activate a card.
Standby phase: do you want to activate a card
Main Phase 1:
(Opponent plays a monster) do you want to activate a card
(Opponent sets a card) do you want to activate a card
(Opponent activates a magic card) do you want to activate a card
Battle Phase:
(Opponent declares an attack) do you want to activate a card
(entering battle) do you want to activate a card
(entering damage step) do you want to activate a card
(the opponent plays a trap) do you want to activate a card
Repeat the above for each attack the opponent makes.
Main Phase 2: (Optional)
possible repeat of Main phase 1
End phase.
Then it begins again, but this time with your own turn.So with all of these cautions, you might ask me, "Brandon, why did you rate the game so high?"
My answer:
Because everything above is what makes the game great. The ability to play a challenging game with so many options, strategies and opportunities to react. Even if you don't like the story, even if you don't like the movement system (check other reviews for info on those), if you like the yu-gi-oh card game, then this game is for you.
Also, don't forget about the value. I have a friend who is coming up to spending $2000.00 on a total card collection and travels miles to get to a place where he can play the game with other people.
Here, you have accesss to just as many cards, if not more, and can play against the people from all over the world, all from the comfort of your home and for a decent price. To me, this is the jackpot of the Yu-gi-oh trading card game, and for all of its flaws, I have to say that its creators did well. Yes, they did well.
