Me 2 months ago as I reread the entirety of Hunter x Hunter: “wow it’s strange that no one has actually made Greed Island into a full 3D video game”

This video game that has multiplayer that’s more fun than anything any anime arena fighter within the past 20 years could ever dream of being:

Personally the only negatives are the repetitive single player campaign that awkward is a mesh of a tutorial for the multiplayer and a legitimate effort to have something and idk 20 years of technological advancement with 3D and collectible-based video game software that seems obvious to us now because we are here looking back but also this game is still fun TODAY it is still good (and it was so good the people who made this game played it for fun on their damn break) and that says a lot

Even 20 years later and learning about the current meta it feels like the structure of this game’s balancing with the systems in place are so strong that there’s still enjoyment. When making your own “deck” you use in the game there are so many tradeoffs and small things when you get onto the field, obviously a sequel would be phenomenal and like I said some things in hindsight can be added and make life easier but it’s astounding how a game that existed before far more money-magnet-aligned not-fighting-or-shooting competitive online games existed can even remotely have a competitive scene at all with variety

Phantom Dust good, Phantom Dust free, you should try Phantom Dust
