I mean this as in computer ones I have played and enjoyed a range of RL ones most notably of course magic. Im really looking for one in comp form given that I rarely get chance to play in RL anymore.
Now I would really prefer a full game i.e something like the old microprose magic the gathering game and its expansions something where I can make whatever deck I want and dont have to worry about having to get the cards first so basically a set price and thats the game. Does anything like this even exist now?
I tried Hearthstone ofc but strongly dislike the business model and the game does not allow enough variables and interesting interactions to offer long term appeal for me. I would have enjoyed it more if I could make the decks I want to make but I still dont think it offers enough in terms of gameplay. It just felt like a 80% magic clone with great presentation and much less intricate and interesting gameplay.
I also recently tried Hex but that is still in development and again the business model rubbed me the wrong way. I liked the gameplay enough but it felt even more like magic than Hearthstone so much so that I was thinking why dont I play magic instead?
I know there is a lot out there but most seem to offer a freemium service as these games can easily change their RL models into digital through immitation but thing is even when I played in RL I rarely bought cards we just used proxies as I loved making decks and trying stuff out so did not want to be hampered by what I dont own or waste loads of money on an idea for a deck I made just for fun.
Ideally I am looking for a full game one that does not have microtransactions but I suppose modular would be ok i.e more expansion based. It would also need to have a fair amount of depth. It does not have to play like magic any kind of card game would be fine original or not.
Also feel free to list other non TCG/CCGs you think are good i.e ones with a set deck or ones with modular expansion etc.
