The open beta for\u00a0Magic: Legends<\/strong><\/em> launched yesterday on PC, and its potential for a promising start has already devolved into a laundry list of player complaints. One of the biggest criticisms concerns the game’s currency system, which contains no less than 13 different resources to keep track of. Even though\u00a0Magic: Legends<\/em> was not designed to be an experience centered on card play, many players are voicing frustrations that the game takes established\u00a0strategy elements of\u00a0Magic: The Gathering<\/em><\/a> and fails to properly represent them.<\/p>\n

Magic: Legends<\/em> is an action RPG game that mixes deck-building from\u00a0Magic: The Gathering<\/em> with exploration and combat similar to the\u00a0Diablo<\/em> series. Right now the Magic: Legends<\/em> open\u00a0beta<\/a> offers a choice between five different classes based on different mana types in\u00a0Magic: The Gathering<\/em>, and these classes each have different combat abilities to give them unique playstyles. Developer Cryptic Studios has succeeded with action RPG games like\u00a0Neverwinter<\/em> in the past, but right now many player complaints are depicting\u00a0Magic: Legends<\/em> as an unpolished waste of money, even for beta standards.<\/p>\n

Among the list of complaints are those directed at the performance issues in the game. Switching between character class options in\u00a0Magic: Legends<\/em><\/a> when choosing which one to go with results in choppy frame rates, and cutscenes also struggle with frame rate issues. Although\u00a0Magic: Legends<\/em> is still in its beta state, many players feel right now that the game’s performance should be better, especially with all of the monetization options already present.<\/p>\n

Magic: Legends<\/em><\/a> is free-to-play, but gamers already looking to drop some money into the game for optional classes or booster packs feel the monetization system borders on the predatory. Booster packs are only $3.00 a piece, but several players believe buying a ton of them is the only reliable way to get the Dimir Assassin optional class. While the Dimir Assassin class can be purchased through in-game Zen currency, it apparently takes a pretty long time to grind for the necessary currency to do so.\u00a0Magic: Legends<\/em> also encourages players to spend money via two different season passes, starter packs, and alternative mission rewards.<\/p>\n
