  • Okay better late than never, but this is a game I really care about and wanted to do justice to in a review.
    Inscryption is Devolver Digital's first card game and a great atmospheric and just straight up fun to play game, that I didn't expect to get as invested in the story of as I did.
    Yes so it may have taken me 4 months to do it but in my defence there was a lot to cover and this has ended up being my longest video to date by some margin.
    I also had some help form others on this so a big thank you to them.
    Please check them out on their links below and tell 'em I sent ya.

    If you read this far into the description thank you!
    If you'd like put "Always pick Mantis God" in your comment and I'll 💙 it.
    And Fun Fact: I actually came up with the thumbnail for this video before I'd even written the script down, but didn't actually make it until the day of upload.

    there's no goddamn way you're this good at editing even yourself as a card, i was trying to comment about you being very well hidden behind the curtains of youtube and therefore having a very low amount of views on your channel, you're a treasure for those who get lucky to find this, i really mean it
    THE CARD IS AWESOME!!!

      But if you enjoyed it that's what matters.

      Sorry to keep you waiting,
      The video may have been a bit on the ambitious side for how long I had available to work on it outside my day job
      I'm quite happy with how the card art worked out too

    A very good video.
    As a side note, I do like how the challenges in the game take a shape of a skull. A subtle nod to Halo perhaps?
    Also, commander is a very good game mode that doesn't get ruined by people slowly ramping their competitive spirit, therefore making the other regulars do the same to the point where it's just autistic min-maxing and waiting for that one player to finish his triggers/draw/mana gain/card plays for 15+ minutes or until the table gives up.

    I swear this video and Magical Girl Edge had at least several videos between them. What happened?
    Edit: Oh shit, I just realized the issue. For some reason. The page from my end decided to put this video right next to the MGE review, and basically scrambled the video positions. My technical issues are fucked.

    I hate when I lose a round of the Pokémon trading card game and not only do they take my soul, but my 1995 charizard as well, have you seen how much they sell for? Enough to buy back my soul and a few more.

    You play as Kacy in Pony Island which is why you know how to hack and code the game in order to escape.

    As an enjoyer of the magic deck in act 2 I can say that yes the deck is really bad at the start. You are basically playing a bad version of every other deck. What the deck is good at is degenerate combos once you unlock all the cards. Using the Blue Mage and Blue Sporemage with the double Moxes and the hammer to make space lets you draw through your deck absurdly easily. Then you just pick your win condition of choice.

    • @devalk_
      @devalk_  Před 4 měsíci

      That makes sense,
      I figured you *could* make it good,
      But I always had solid sniper builds by that point, and didn't feel the need to add extra cards.
