I almost bought this X-men vs. Avengers thing. Glad I didn't. I'm just going to wait till the dust settles and see what happens. This is now a fools errand and I'm steering clear for the time being.


Yes, I definitely would not be surprised if I picked up a big set of one of these games in several years when they've run their course. But I'm not getting on until the set is done and I've seen all the different ways they're going to flog the system---I'll buy into the one whose theme appeals most.

Yeah, I'll admit that I got caught up in the excitement...And can see myself stopping shortly (once I round out a few more cards) and take a wait and see approach. D&D and YGO don't excite me. The XMen one coming out...That's going to be hard to resist but I think I can.

They are all compatible, but I think most folks won't be very interested in putting Wolverine in a D&D party with a Yugioh monster. I dunno.

This is how the collectible model works, particularly in 2014. You need to have set after set after set lined up because each release will only keep folks busy working through the metagame for 3-5 months before it stagnates. This is how you do it. From here it's hard to say how the long term success will be for the game because right now, nobody can play it (which is a HUGE blunder), once starters are everywhere and OP rolls out, we'll be more able to judge if it has long term viability or is a flash in the pan, but as far as release schedules go, this is about right.
