Message: [QUOTE="medisinn, post: 71934, member: 157567"] That's true. Maybe it's for the best, as bad as it is. If they can't write decent characters, they may as well lean on other IPs. Aetherdrift is god-awful, but even before that all they had for ideas was Planeswalkers. They'd reduced the characters in each plane to being useless, because no matter what happened, the Planeswalkers would just show up and save the day. What business does Chandra have stopping a vampire wedding? It makes no sense. There's deep irony in them announcing they are making a movie and a show based off of Magic, because, like, what is there to make something off of? They are creatively bankrupt, and going away from three sets per block really hurts the storytelling. I don't know how the managed to fuck up the Praetors coming back, but they did it somehow. All they really have left is making Nicol Bolas or Emrakul the big bads again. You should. It absolutely breaks the immersion of gaming. It's one thing to see indie game characters show up in other games, I feel like there is camaraderie there. Otherwise, Fortnite succeeding with its IP soup was the worst thing to happen to media in a long time. Crossovers used to feel special, like Marvel vs. Capcom or Kingdom Hearts. Those games wouldn't have any impact nowadays because it'd be nothing special, hell it'd be expected for characters from different franchises to interact. [/QUOTE]
