The Pleasure Of A Good Card Game And Why The Witcher 3 Gets It Wrong

GR Theres a reason so many games (and particularly RPGs) include card games as a sideline but its not the same one. Triple Triad, Pazaak, Red Dead Redemptions Poker; all live on in my mind as moments where I got to disconnect from the woes of grinding, or cosmic destruction, or dead horses. In fact, in The Witcher 3, Geralt will occasionally sum it up perfectly as he asks whatever hapless innkeeper Im about to annihilate for a game of Gwent. Need a diversion, hell grumble, as I unsheathe my disgustingly efficient Nilfgaardian Empire Decoy deck.
