And on PC as well, so I can finally jump back in. Though I last played the game during the GX era, so I guess I would really have to acclimate to the new way the game is played these days.
Need to make it an new open world yugioh game where you can move around freely! Have your own customized character and do what you want like real life, but still have some sort of storyline to it. I’d play the hell out of it
So it's the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime story, but they follow the rules of the real life version of the game, and no endless filler. That alone is good enough for me. This could be a quick and easy way to get caught up on the lore.
I know a lot people hated but I miss duel of the roses for ps2. Overall not the greatest game but I liked the board game set up and storyline attached to it
I wish they would consider making a Yugioh Game similar to the 5D’s ones with the create your own character option, be able to run around and duel Ai’s, and updates to include new cards or band list updates for multiplayer.
@@SirBlackReeds hell yeah me two i dont get it. They had 5 on psp until 2011, and never again not one on vita. They had the chance to really do decent on it considering there wasnt much diversity in game types on vita mostly fighting and rpgs id say, plus a lengthy, play anywhere etc game that anyone can have on the go, without the bs of it being on your phone and ads and microtransactions. They missed out for sure, i would have paid 40 for a physical copy and even considered digital if on sale
@@ThatGuy-en2nn True...although I thought $20 for the original was a steal. This one is $40 but has like 2,000 more cards or something like that and I really appreciate being able to play this portably.
I think I hate to open packs and building decks hontestly and I also hated every yu gi oh new card type after the GX. However playing just the story mode with prebuilt seems to be a blast so this might actually be the best yu gi oh game out there for me. Just a chilled out Yu Gi Oh experience revisiting my childhood... Im in
I wanted a game that could give me the entirety of the experience of the original series with its cards and rules, and a practical in game currency to get cards, everything after that being extra. I've even been looking into the old gameboy advance games but THIS finally looks like exactly what I've been searching for.
This is the closest thing to what you are looking for..it is very close to having everything and I bet they will update the additional. Everything comes with the game too.
@@phantom2369 I got the game a few days ago so far its fun as hell. Looks like you can play any of the decks found in the show once you unlock them and you can build your own decks with ingame currency. Basically all I ever wanted in a yugioh game lol
@@phantom2369 I've only been playing through the original series story mode so far but it looks like the rules are based on whichever series you playthrough. I haven't seen the link system show up yet. I dont see why I shouldn't be able to customize whether I want the link system in other modes or not. But I still need to check the other modes.
Did they improve the Spell/Trap activation detection? When I tried the PS4 demo, the options either asked if you wanted to activate something with every trivial text box, or expected you to hold skip and hope you don't miss your window for the card you wanted to play.
Yes, that is the computer's way of indicating what you want. If a card has an effect, it will ask you if you would like to use the effect [Yes] or [No]
The thing is, there are so many instances when spells and traps can be activated that it pretty much has to ask you if you want to activate it otherwise you might miss your opportunity and then you're boned. Annoying at first, but to play Yugioh effectively it is kind of necessary
Damn, even though I've never had a high opinion of Yu-Gi-Oh, this seems like a genuinely great game for that fanbase. I might actually get this at some point. Thanks for the review!
I can't wait to play this.. I loved legacy of the duelist since it first came out. I only wish the game got updated some more, but atleast we get this.
Question: Are all Sound FX adjustable? On PS4, the BGM & SE are adjustable *_except_* Summoning SE. I play music with USB/Spotify kinda loud without LOTD BGM. So when a XYZ summon happens, I'm turning the volume WAYYY DOWN.

Shoot! This is enticing. I planned to get the game digital because I have Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as physical copy and only want it as the only game in physical form. Now, I read that the game will have promotional cards with physical game purchase made me have second thoughts.
There isn't. All Multiplayer match types have the banlist in effect by default. In Deck Select, it won't display any decks you have made that have forbidden cards in them or too many of the Limited/Semi-Limited cards.
There's a game on steam called Faeria, and it has a very similar style to Dungeon Dice Monsters. It's sort of DDM mixed with Hearthstone. Might be worth checking out if you like those style of games.
But the AI was too dumb, you could just spam level 1 monsters to get to the other side asap and then kill the leader before the AI even knew what's going on. Sadly I never had a chance to play agains a real player, so I have no idea if the game would be fun.
I don’t know if it’s just me but I miss the times when it had 3D animated monster on top of the card. I love spirit caller and it’s one of the most perfect yugioh game for me but this one is also amazing but I do prefer to have a 3D monster on top of it, it gives me the real yugioh feels.
I recently got this game and I like it a lot but I’ve yet to have it crash on my switch and even using story based decks this game gives quite a challenge. For example tèa has so many equip and support magic cards for her monsters she got a magician of faith from 300 to 5500 attack in one turn
what happens in the earlier stories when you try to extra deck summon? do the extra monster zones exist in all the stories or only in the ones where you have access to links
Yeah. None of the story mode opponents have those new card types in their decks until they’d been introduced. While the entire game does follow the newest rules, the new card types are kept out of earlier story arc AI decks.
@@taneaapochicago Really all they need is an update. I mean, they did add 2 new sets of cards to the arc 5 series, for free, a couple years ago. I don't expect to get everything with Vrains and the new rules for free, but 1 duel and it's reverse definitely isn't too much to ask for.
You're all probably aware by now, but Konami has already stated they won't be updating the old games. And that is because they can't, they made this version almost from scratch, since Master Rule 4 is always in effect, and it affects any deck that has an extra deck or uses Pendulums, including the Duel Monsters era duels.
Nice review! I phased out of Yugioh around the time of Battle City on the GBA (100+ Hrs of usage out of that gem) Saw this in the Switch shop for half price so thought it might be worth checking out, I'm vaguely aware of all the new mechanics in the modern Yugioh game and didn't want to purchase straight away in case I found out in the opening duel all the decks from the Anime had been modded to incorperate all the modern fuckery haha
Update: I got through the OG yugioh series thinking this was the best game ever, got about four duels into '5Ds' and closed the game lmfao modern yugioh is fucked
Hello bro. Thanks for your review! Just one question. One thing I really like of Yugioh is to play with ALL the cards that have been created. In this game, will I be able to build a deck that allows me to play against the PC or my friends with banned cards? (like Monster Reborn, Harpies Feather Duster and stuff). Since I don't really like going to tournaments and dont really care about online gaming vs other players, I just want to know that if I wanna duel for a bit against the PC I will be able to use any card that has been created. That's why I stopped playing Duel Links on my phone. Please help me with this doubt before I buy the game.
@Beatles life eh game itself was only $20 and you could skip most of the dlc if you wanted (I only bought like 2 of them). Had at least 100 hours of play on it...that is damn good value for a game nowadays and this version is $40 and includes everything from the original and all dlc and adds the link evolution stuff. This is actually really great imo
I dont play Yugioh anymore but got PS4 version 2-3 years ago. I put a ton of time into it and nearly have playsets of each card from packs. It was awesome. Gonna pick this up for Switch on Thursday.
ouch no cards from duel power set? dang, that means I can't build classic e.hero with grandmerge doesn't it? is v.hero faris and increase in the game at least?
You will def get your money worth with this game! It is a great game to learn the latest rules and cards especially considering you have a foundation in the game to work from.
So then the cards in "Order of the Spellcasters" structure deck isnt in there? I'm fairly new to yugioh and i bought muself that deck to start myself off an i love the cards it has, would I be able to recreate it eventually if at all?
You are correct that all of the new cards Order of the Spellcasters introduced are not included in the base game. We don't know if/when DLC or Updates will come, so whether or not you can recreate it eventually is up in the air until we get an announcement on whether or not Link Evolution will get future DLC like the original version did.
How do I unlock the packs 100% on the PS4 version without link summoning. I unlocked all campaigns and duelist but it wont let me buy the last doezen packs of each duelist. I beat the unlocked duelest with new deck but they only give few cards and then only game points. Do I have to beat all the unlocked duelists several times? Anybody know how to get unlock 100% of the packs?
Can anyone tell me if guys with the normal legacy can play together with those that have this or are the multiplayers seperate, just thought I'd ask since they are pretty much the same game
As someone who pretty much only cares for the single player part and such and has the platforms for both regular and link evolution, would you say the story modes are better in the original what uses master rule 3 or in link evolution where master rule 4 apparently messes up some decks from what I've heard some people say?
I don't know how the game handles mr4 for the early generations, but almost every archetype received a new link support, there are only few decks who got screwed with the change of rules.
@@lucianofrancesco4742 But considering the story decks are made for more anime accuracy the story decks apparently don't use Link monsters at all until VRAINS duels.
kinda wish they would just update the PC and console versions. or just release a package that has all the dlc as well as the new update of the game. I kinda wanna see what link summonings all about.
The problem is that with master rule four they changed the entire game, the where gonna make you be able to change between the two but decided not to, so an update to the old game wouldn’t work, it has to be a new game
Great review & explanations I had the original and everyone online would use dlc decks and I never wanted to buy the almost 10 docs Link evolution came out at 40!! I was like no, then they had on sale for 13$ I grabbed it and it's to me fun My best advice get it on sale, cause your basically getting all the dlc and few extra cards
Didnt fully watch the video but can someone tell me if it'll have lobbies for multiplayer? It really seems like thats the only thing thats missing to make a game like this incredible all around
Robust single player campaign where I can play with the actual character's decks from the show? Sign me up! Also would be nice as when GX came around I lost interest (think I was 15-16 then) and 5D seemed stupid but it'd be neat to see all the new rules and such.
I have a question, so does this game also clearly explain all the rules? I'm a person who has watched the original show and understand the basics but don't understand what some things mean or how some cards work for what decks. And type advantages I don't get yet either. But I am a fan of the original show and I saw a good deal for this game and I may be interested, is this game good for a beginner interested to the actual cards and game play? Or is it better for people who are more die hard tcg fans?
I’ve been watching the yugioh anime on Netflix since the start of this year... I’ve been quite busy so I haven’t been able to watch all the episodes as quick as I would’ve liked to... the story campaign is great for shortening the story whilst keeping it to the point...I’m a bit disappointed that the Noah sequence in the original anime isn’t in the game... or at least I don’t think it is... because I would’ve liked to be able to take on the big 5 in duels... and then duel against Noah like how it plays out in the anime... everything else about the game is great... however the 3d animated cutscenes that were removed from the original shouldn’t have been removed but instead been allowed to toggle on and off... seeing a 3d dark magician on the playing field using dark magic attack sounds awesome when you haven’t played the original LOTD
DROHNEN.DANIEL haha:D ja was soll ich sagen, YGO ist eben so meine Kindheit😁 bin Aktuell auch dabei mich so langsam wieder ins TCG rein zu finden 😆 btw ich kann dir das Spiel empfehlen:) habs schon auf der PS4 & aufm PC gespielt & für 40€ kann man hier nicht meckern, vorallem weil es ALLE DLCs drin haben wird, endlich als Retail raus kommt (mit 3 Promo karten) & eben neuer Content rein gehauen wurde 😁👌🏽
I really like 3d models of the monsters so I'll stick with duel links for now till they add that in or make a game based on 3d modeling of the monsters
Damn I’m impressed. I’m a duel links player and I’ve wanted to get into the tcg for some time so that I can mess around with different archetypes. This game definitely will allow me to do that without much trouble besides the ban list. And $40 too! This is definitely gonna be a must for the system
The switch is region free. Just create a new account (user) on switch, choose japan as region, then follow instructions. Then you need to find Japanese nintendo cards online. Check Play-asia. They probably have a few in stock.
So what are the drawbacks of buying the japaneese version? Will i have to buy japaneese eshop cards everytime i want to buy something in game? Will i only be paired against japaneese players( even after the western version is released?) Etc. Just want to know if there are any downsides
It’s an international copy of the game. Just like all other games in the Japanese estore, which get a international release, there is no need to fear any restrictions. I’ve picked up this game as well.
Ricci K so will I be able to say buy in game cards using my normal eshop account? Or will I need more Japanese eshop cards. Just want to be sure before I buy it because I plan on spending money on the game
@@kitsunekid16 duel links is good and all, but i'm over the speed dueling and limited metas. Got my copy and love it! even has ranked online duels, just gotta build a decent deck
Anyone know? Would this be a good "jumping in" point for someone who is well versed in CCG's, but has never played a Yu Hi Oh! CCG before? I've always been interested (since I'm a sucker for card games) and with 9000+ cards this looks like a great time to learn. Also what is the learning curve on the instructions... Is the in game tutorial comprehensive enough for a newbie?
I wanted to know I am very curious about yu gi oh I try to watch it when I was but it was confusing, I’m trying to get back into the anime. I don’t have cards but I wanted to know which one should I play yu gi oh duel links or legacy of the duelist?

is there an update for the crashing cuz I bought this game yesterday
has the game kept crashing or has it been fixed?
So this means no more “extra monster zone” restriction and just being able to freely spam synchro’s just like the old days?
Need to make it an new open world yugioh game where you can move around freely! Have your own customized character and do what you want like real life, but still have some sort of storyline to it. I’d play the hell out of it
I feel you my friend.
I miss Yugioh online as well. It's so stupid that they shut that down and made this cheaply designed game.
Thats my dream game, right there
Yugioh 5ds 2009-2010-2011 are the base of what you looking for.
I dont know why they didnt continue doing games like those; they were superb
There's always Tag Force and World Championships.
I don't think Konami would ever expend their resources like that, unfortunately.
So it's the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime story, but they follow the rules of the real life version of the game, and no endless filler.

Duelists of the Roses was great! haha I still have it and play it from time to time!

what happens in the earlier stories when you try to extra deck summon? do the extra monster zones exist in all the stories or only in the ones where you have access to links
The entire game uses the new rules so in the earlier series you still have to put fusions/synchros/etc in the extra monster zones.
does this game include alternate artworks on cards that do have them?
It does not. They chose a single artwork for each card.
Stupid question incoming: do you have all cars available from the start witout going online, or do you have to buy them in the card shop?
You have to unlock them via story battles and buying from packs with in-game currency.
During the different arcs do the opponents stick to that arcs rules? Like no synchros/pendulums in the first arc?
Yeah. None of the story mode opponents have those new card types in their decks until they’d been introduced.
While the entire game does follow the newest rules, the new card types are kept out of earlier story arc AI decks.
Will the version for the PS4 and XBONE be getting updated with any of the new content?

@@taneaapochicago Really all they need is an update. I mean, they did add 2 new sets of cards to the arc 5 series, for free, a couple years ago. I don't expect to get everything with Vrains and the new rules for free, but 1 duel and it's reverse definitely isn't too much to ask for.
You're all probably aware by now, but Konami has already stated they won't be updating the old games. And that is because they can't, they made this version almost from scratch, since Master Rule 4 is always in effect, and it affects any deck that has an extra deck or uses Pendulums, including the Duel Monsters era duels.
Good review. I'm waiting for the European physical version though.
Would've liked a bit more information about the menu and different modes.
There aren't many different modes but Single Player and Multiplayer.
Same here cant wait.
Nice review! I phased out of Yugioh around the time of Battle City on the GBA (100+ Hrs of usage out of that gem)
Saw this in the Switch shop for half price so thought it might be worth checking out, I'm vaguely aware of all the new mechanics in the modern Yugioh game and didn't want to purchase straight away in case I found out in the opening duel all the decks from the Anime had been modded to incorperate all the modern fuckery haha
Update: I got through the OG yugioh series thinking this was the best game ever, got about four duels into '5Ds' and closed the game lmfao modern yugioh is fucked
@@jontyrosenow9396 Modern yugioh feels like you're reading essays
Hello bro. Thanks for your review! Just one question. One thing I really like of Yugioh is to play with ALL the cards that have been created. In this game, will I be able to build a deck that allows me to play against the PC or my friends with banned cards? (like Monster Reborn, Harpies Feather Duster and stuff).
Since I don't really like going to tournaments and dont really care about online gaming vs other players, I just want to know that if I wanna duel for a bit against the PC I will be able to use any card that has been created. That's why I stopped playing Duel Links on my phone.
Please help me with this doubt before I buy the game.
Bought this for PS4 almost 4 years ago, still play it almost every day
@Beatles life eh game itself was only $20 and you could skip most of the dlc if you wanted (I only bought like 2 of them). Had at least 100 hours of play on it...that is damn good value for a game nowadays and this version is $40 and includes everything from the original and all dlc and adds the link evolution stuff. This is actually really great imo
I dont play Yugioh anymore but got PS4 version 2-3 years ago. I put a ton of time into it and nearly have playsets of each card from packs. It was awesome. Gonna pick this up for Switch on Thursday.
@@karnliberated8891 I'm getting a Switch this Black Friday and I'm definitely double dipping with this.
I am already addicted to the switch version haha
I have the PS4 version and stopped playing due to Rage Quitters playing online and there's no penalty for leaving.
Really great review, thank you!
ouch no cards from duel power set? dang, that means I can't build classic e.hero with grandmerge doesn't it? is v.hero faris and increase in the game at least?
Last yugioh game i played was for the wii. Enjoyed it but I usually run a custom made zombie deck and not all cards were available in the 5D's game
This review is just for me. I also havent played a yuguoh game in ages and I wondered if this game would be for me
You will def get your money worth with this game! It is a great game to learn the latest rules and cards especially considering you have a foundation in the game to work from.
Yugioh is the best thing in this Cosmos i dont see how people don't play everyday but thats just me.
@@BryerTheGreater1 Fucking pathetic.
YuGiOh is a good game for the Switch! 😁🙌
Maybe yugi will be the next smash character now lol
So then the cards in "Order of the Spellcasters" structure deck isnt in there? I'm fairly new to yugioh and i bought muself that deck to start myself off an i love the cards it has, would I be able to recreate it eventually if at all?
You are correct that all of the new cards Order of the Spellcasters introduced are not included in the base game. We don't know if/when DLC or Updates will come, so whether or not you can recreate it eventually is up in the air until we get an announcement on whether or not Link Evolution will get future DLC like the original version did.
How do I unlock the packs 100% on the PS4 version without link summoning. I unlocked all campaigns and duelist but it wont let me buy the last doezen packs of each duelist. I beat the unlocked duelest with new deck but they only give few cards and then only game points. Do I have to beat all the unlocked duelists several times? Anybody know how to get unlock 100% of the packs?
Hopefully the English version fixes the crash issues.
I think I’ll wait until the game goes on sale for the Switch before buying
Walmart has it for 32.88 which is the cheapest you will find it. Everyone else wants 40 dollars US for it
Urban Kitsune
Yeah I know that but
Idk y Walmart have their games cheaper🤔
Even brand new games, instead of 59.99
Walmart makes it 49.99
@@Crimson-Flash it's awesome to me because if they keep that up with the new pokemon and zelda game release, i will be stoked
Can anyone tell me if guys with the normal legacy can play together with those that have this or are the multiplayers seperate, just thought I'd ask since they are pretty much the same game
Will there be updates going forward? As you mentioned the duel power cards missing. Or is this the difinitive edition and already complete?
We don’t know. They haven’t said anything yet about future updates. Possibly but we don’t know for sure.
As someone who pretty much only cares for the single player part and such and has the platforms for both regular and link evolution, would you say the story modes are better in the original what uses master rule 3 or in link evolution where master rule 4 apparently messes up some decks from what I've heard some people say?
I don't know how the game handles mr4 for the early generations, but almost every archetype received a new link support, there are only few decks who got screwed with the change of rules.
@@lucianofrancesco4742 But considering the story decks are made for more anime accuracy the story decks apparently don't use Link monsters at all until VRAINS duels.
@@V-Jes I heard that they included link monsters also in the decks of the older characters, but I'm not sure, I have to look it up.
kinda wish they would just update the PC and console versions. or just release a package that has all the dlc as well as the new update of the game. I kinda wanna see what link summonings all about.
The problem is that with master rule four they changed the entire game, the where gonna make you be able to change between the two but decided not to, so an update to the old game wouldn’t work, it has to be a new game
They can't update the original due to paid DLC people paid for become free with the updated version.
Bro help me out, how do you get cloudian monsters/spells/traps, can’t find where/if they drop?!
They’re in the Syrus Truesdale booster pack. You can also get some of them from the Adrian Gecko challenge duel.
Is the card selection on the switch the same as it would be on the pc or Xbox one?
Great review & explanations
I had the original and everyone online would use dlc decks and I never wanted to buy the almost 10 docs
Link evolution came out at 40!!
I was like no, then they had on sale for 13$ I grabbed it and it's to me fun
My best advice get it on sale, cause your basically getting all the dlc and few extra cards
Yu-Gi-Oh came out when I was in third grade lol damn it’s been a long time
Is there voiced acted dialogue or is it all text u have to read?
Didnt fully watch the video but can someone tell me if it'll have lobbies for multiplayer? It really seems like thats the only thing thats missing to make a game like this incredible all around
No tag duel mode???
Been getting really frustrated with duel links lately and this seems like it's a lot closer to what I've been wanting to play
Alec Beutler it’s $20 at GameStop till 12/1
@@Roman-wd1it nice thank you i was gonna get it from the e store but that's cheaper
Duel Links's paywall can be very frustrating
Robust single player campaign where I can play with the actual character's decks from the show? Sign me up!
Also would be nice as when GX came around I lost interest (think I was 15-16 then) and 5D seemed stupid but it'd be neat to see all the new rules and such.
I have a question, so does this game also clearly explain all the rules? I'm a person who has watched the original show and understand the basics but don't understand what some things mean or how some cards work for what decks. And type advantages I don't get yet either. But I am a fan of the original show and I saw a good deal for this game and I may be interested, is this game good for a beginner interested to the actual cards and game play? Or is it better for people who are more die hard tcg fans?
Question.
Does this game have touchscreen for the Switch?
Or do we need to push buttons?
It has Touchscreen (the entry in the Switch eshop says that)
Does the touch screen work with this?
Yes. Pretty much the entire game can be played with the touch screen if you so wish.
@@Reviews2Go thanks
I’ve been watching the yugioh anime on Netflix since the start of this year... I’ve been quite busy so I haven’t been able to watch all the episodes as quick as I would’ve liked to... the story campaign is great for shortening the story whilst keeping it to the point...I’m a bit disappointed that the Noah sequence in the original anime isn’t in the game... or at least I don’t think it is... because I would’ve liked to be able to take on the big 5 in duels... and then duel against Noah like how it plays out in the anime... everything else about the game is great... however the 3d animated cutscenes that were removed from the original shouldn’t have been removed but instead been allowed to toggle on and off... seeing a 3d dark magician on the playing field using dark magic attack sounds awesome when you haven’t played the original LOTD
Can you purchase multiple card packs at a time? I hate in legacy having to buy them one at a time.
So. It will be possible to build a own deck from the beginning and play with it through the story?
Yup
@@dr.rockso2703 Awesome
Das ich dich unter nem Yu-Gi-Oh! video finde :D
@@SwitchItYT heyho. Hast du wirklich was anderes erwartet?
Das ist meine Kindheit. 😂👌
DROHNEN.DANIEL haha:D ja was soll ich sagen, YGO ist eben so meine Kindheit😁 bin Aktuell auch dabei mich so langsam wieder ins TCG rein zu finden 😆
btw ich kann dir das Spiel empfehlen:) habs schon auf der PS4 & aufm PC gespielt & für 40€ kann man hier nicht meckern, vorallem weil es ALLE DLCs drin haben wird, endlich als Retail raus kommt (mit 3 Promo karten) & eben neuer Content rein gehauen wurde 😁👌🏽
I really like 3d models of the monsters so I'll stick with duel links for now till they add that in or make a game based on 3d modeling of the monsters
QUESTION: Is the old (before link summoning) format available to play online?
Nope not online or offline fucking deal-breaker
I wish they had games vs the AI where the AI can use a deck you made or a random deck of some form.
It's only 19.99 on the eShop right now
Damn I’m impressed. I’m a duel links player and I’ve wanted to get into the tcg for some time so that I can mess around with different archetypes. This game definitely will allow me to do that without much trouble besides the ban list. And $40 too! This is definitely gonna be a must for the system
Cant wait.so can we buy multiple card packs cause on the last one I play you can only buy 1 card pack at a time
I wish they could do an ante rule where if you lose or surrender, you have to give up rare cards yourself lol add a little bit of risk to the duels.
A good card game for the switch
hopefully they can fix those performance issues in an update or something.
Tag Force on PSP had the same problem, very annoying
Can you play with earlier versions of the rules in Link Evolution or do you have to play with the newest version of the rules?
No you cannot go back to M3. You only use the Link rules.
If I am in Europe is there a Way to buy this through the Japanese store? Don't know if I can wait a couple of , months for its release here
The switch is region free. Just create a new account (user) on switch, choose japan as region, then follow instructions.
Then you need to find Japanese nintendo cards online. Check Play-asia. They probably have a few in stock.
I havent played yugioh in so many years, this seems cool I might check it out.
You would def get your money worth!
So what are the drawbacks of buying the japaneese version? Will i have to buy japaneese eshop cards everytime i want to buy something in game? Will i only be paired against japaneese players( even after the western version is released?) Etc. Just want to know if there are any downsides
im just going to leave a comment here since i also want to know
We all wanna know
It’s an international copy of the game. Just like all other games in the Japanese estore, which get a international release, there is no need to fear any restrictions. I’ve picked up this game as well.
Ricci K so will I be able to say buy in game cards using my normal eshop account? Or will I need more Japanese eshop cards. Just want to be sure before I buy it because I plan on spending money on the game
@@ballisticarrow27 You can buy eshop cards via playasia for any region. Game is 3000~ Yen, but there's no DLC as of yet.
How many custom decks can you make in this game?
Does it have the option to use the real names for the characters?
Soooo I can delete duel links off my mobile is what you're saying lol
Im doing that today since i despise it. Just got my copy today
@@kitsunekid16 duel links is good and all, but i'm over the speed dueling and limited metas. Got my copy and love it! even has ranked online duels, just gotta build a decent deck
@@Otakucollabz i love zombie decks but they are not viable in duel links speed duals at all
Hey, maybe you should think on updating your intro
is zexle worth watching after i finish 5ds or should i skip to arc? watching dub
Anyone know? Would this be a good "jumping in" point for someone who is well versed in CCG's, but has never played a Yu Hi Oh! CCG before? I've always been interested (since I'm a sucker for card games) and with 9000+ cards this looks like a great time to learn.
Also what is the learning curve on the instructions... Is the in game tutorial comprehensive enough for a newbie?
It pretty easy to learn once you learn how to use each card type and knowing how to play the monsters it all combo and strategy from there.
Yugioh is the best thing in this Cosmos i don't see how people don't play everyday but thats just me.
Idiot.
the really should upgrade their graphic,because it is year 9102 now.
Does anybody know if its Switch only or will it come to PC like the previous Legacy game too?
Thus far it is switch exclusive. I am curious if they will have an expansion to the PC version to bring it up to Link Evolution though eventually.
I wanted to know I am very curious about yu gi oh I try to watch it when I was but it was confusing, I’m trying to get back into the anime. I don’t have cards but I wanted to know which one should I play yu gi oh duel links or legacy of the duelist?
