Its like literally the bottom of the list of things to sort out if society began to transition to a new type of economy/society, but I spend way too much time thinking about it.
Would physical TCGs even exist at all? Would it be like Triple Triad shit where every community has its own fucked up version of the rules? Who makes new cards, and how do we agree what is and isn't legit? Do we like, go on the internet and elect the Secretary of Yugioh?
Fuck, man. A lot of my hobbies are hard to imagine outside of a capitalist system because I have no real idea how hobbies work outside of the one economic system I've ever existed in.
maybe you want formats like draft and sealed deck to still exist and you can preserve that randomness without the basic commercial unit being a lootbox. see cube draft.
also physical card games are probably on the way out anyway and temporary artificial scarcity is trivial in a computer game. I just hope the UI is better
true artificial scarcity gets you the wall
Yeah, I love draft/sealed formats.
not if i have anything to say about it. fortunately i dont sink my money into the trading card stuff, it's all 52-card fr*nch decks or hanafuda decks. ive also got a really sick deck that combines the two
oh yeah i expect standard playing cards to outlive rules-based proprietary card games by a few centuries
