   Simple question. Will it be better than Hearthstone for casual players?

      Never played Hearthstone, played the Gwent Private a bit, was enjoyable. Has a single player story thing

      I’ve not played Hearthstone, but one complaint I hear – decks being full of Legendary cards – is averted in Gwent, as you can only have 4 Gold cards & 6 Silver cards in a deck.

         Thanks. That sounds like a good start.

   Started Gwent just tonight
   It seems really good so far, but the paywalls/microtrans are pretty standard
   In saying that, you can pretty much do anything in game if you invest the time doing daily matchmaking
   *note
   The mechanics are a little more sophisticated than Witcher 3 Gwent
   If you are looking for a more fleshed out Gwent, this is for you

      After dipping my toes into the matchmaking, record is
      0w 1L 1D – 2W by forfeit (bad connections by opponent)

         Connection problems seem a bit of a worry, hopefully that’s either player-side problems or they sort it out before release.

   I don’t know, I thought I’d be up for this, but in part due to the ‘extra mechanics’ and loss of the ‘traveller meeting players here and there’ stuff that the main game offers, maybe I’m missing its allure.

   I signed up to the closed beta and tried it for only a weekend or so when I was finally let in. Maybe I’ll give it another go. I wish CDPR well here though, love those guys.
