Suggestion: ingame chat buttons
I understand why you wouldn't want an actual chat function during games, even if it were to be mutable, but I do think some limited options of communication would be nice to have. We do have GG after the game but when someone doesn't press it I automatically assume that the other person is super salty and felt like my entire deck was completely unfair or something.
I was thinking of a few general buttons on the left side of the screen (maybe even in a popup menu) that describe a general feeling each towards how the game is currently going. Here's some suggestions even though you guys could probably come up with way better ones.
1) Nice play!
2) Grrr
3) Aww man
4) Whoops!
I hope you guys like this idea and pick it up in some form or another. Playing Gwent does feel a little bit lonely from time to time, and being able to let people know I see what they did there and that I respect their play would make the game way more enjoyable in my opinion.
Edit: General grammar, rip English
