@Burza46 I love Gwent more than any other Card game out there, loved it in the Witcher game and loved every standalone version of it. I still love Gwent and I have a few questions that I hope you take the time to read and answer, even if you can't I'd like to know that you saw my concerns and thoughts.
HC Gwent has changed a lot of cards that used to be thematic into cards with random abilities and points that could have been on any other card, for example old Temerian Infantry used to bring more soldiers on the battlefield and it felt right, they are an army and they fight together on the battlefield, new Blue Whale (Delirium) is also a big offender. Cards seem to have random abilities and points with no regards to their Card Name, Card Art and Lore. Factions like NR have lost their Battlefield, Army theme and factions like NG have lost their intrigue and that is because right now the cards have no identity. As I said they are random points with random abilities on random cards. It's like the devs had 2 paper sheets, one with abilities and points and one with the cards and they just randomly picked and linked. Is this something that we can expect will be the new way of things for Gwent moving on or will March bring more thematic cards and synergies? Will old Cards that lost synergies and themes be given a 2nd look, a 2nd chance at being interesting again? I'd like to point out here that I used to main NR with some NG on the side, so what I say goes mostly for these factions. I had over 2000 games with NR and have played them in any way possible! Other factions might as well be the most thematic they've ever been, but I don't know about them! So I mostly talk for my Gwent love, the Northern Realms.
And a last question, what are the Devs thoughts on the issue that new Gwent doesn't allow too much of....well...Gwent, with the amount of Damage there is, the game has changed to play a card and damage that card, instead of building your Army, your deck plan, it doesn't feel like a battlefield actually, which was a goal of HC Gwent, I am not reffering to just point slamming, which by the way you can say that it is in the very nature of Gwent and it shouldn't be treated completely like the devil. Are there any discussions over this in the Dev meetings, or is it this what the team wants of Gwent going forward?
