Have you seen yu-gi-oh? It's a straight duel disk

06-19-2015, 11:04 PMRydiaOoooh I see the cards on it now... but the cards unfortunately don't disappear from it when you pull your globe out and the cards are floating around it.Quote:

I'm more concerned with the stupid distance from your back the star globe sits when sheathed.
Holy hell that's distracting. -
06-20-2015, 03:53 AMStarlordOkay.. but why is it never used when i choose a card? Or is that something that happens later?Quote:

I noticed the male Au Ra lancer I created has something I think looks like a sword.
I really need to take a back view pic of him to prove my point:

Would've been nice if, after unsheathing your weapon, it'll attach to your arm like a shield ... but that would look too much like Yu Gi Oh.
I think there was even concept art of it like that. -

This is actually my only complaint so far... Really don't like the way this looks.
Not a deal breaker to me though, really enjoying the job and the expansion so far.
