I love, LOVE that Lucifer has no idea what Judgement is doing. Or rather, she's seeing it, but she's the Queen of Hell, so surely Judgement is bluffing, right?
Meanwhile Moon knows that Judgement is not bluffing.

It's not 'somehow', it's 'inevitable' knowing them...

They were actually doing fine, at least as far as BA is concerned, until they hired former EA CEO Mr. "Charge real money to reload your gun"

Only after Nexon hired him did BA suddenly start making a lot of bad turns

>Implying Nexon doesn't do this shit all the time with their IP

Anyone who honestly tries to act like this never would have happened if Sรถderlund never came on needs to lay off the corporate farts. Pre-release people were dreading what kind of MTX hell BA would be purely because it was a Nexon game. Also remember that in the very early days before global you needed 300 pulls to spark. That Nexon had waited 5 years before taking the mask off and altering the deal is honestly a surprising display of restraint from them.

Bro I dunno what point you're trying to make like anything you said disproves anything I said. I didn't imply shit, put words in your own mouth, not mine.

BA JP launched with 300 pull Spark, then they changed it to 200, and Global launched with the revised 200, and regularly receives any other QoL updates JP gets earlier than when JP got them. The BA devs on multiple occasions listened to the fans' criticisms. BA also WASN'T the MTX hell people expected it to be, and stayed that way up until Soderlund joined the company. Only after he joined did we start getting battlepasses and this new gacha system downgrade.

Western players might be familiar with a reskinned version called President, which itself was adapted from Daifugou or the equivalent Chinese card games. There's also some brand name variants like The Great Dalmuti and Dilbert's Corporate Shuffle.

(Swedish used to have a... uh... not-so-politically-correct name for it too.)

Where I most recently played it we called it deuces but that's actually the name for a completely different solo game. The revolution rule was not in play, and given the meta we developed around playing our game, wouldn't have been an efficient way to play either.

Different names used for the same game in different cultures is a fascinating topic in general. If I remember right, parts of China call Hearts "Tractor", though that may also be a deprecated term now.
