An overview on the game after one month of playing

Nope, Triple Triad was confirmed in the August live letter.

Its the Viii card game though, not the IX one. I don't really recap many people liking the VIII card game..why they chose that instead of tetra master is beyond me.

You got that backwards. Lots of people didn't like IX's card game, but liked VIII's card game.

Indeed. I love triple triad. So much so, that for years I played it here: http://www.tripletriadflashonline.com/en/play

Triple Triad was an actual card game, where the cards were static and the rules made sense. Tetra Master was a terrible RNG-based grind-fest with deliberately obfuscated rules. FFIX was definitely more fun than FFVIII, but FFVIII had the far superior card game.

Even though Triple Triad was great largely for its simplicity, what I'd love to see is a CCG with complex mechanics. Xenosaga Episode I had an amazing one that was far more fun than the game itself - "Xenocard." I know Xenosaga wasn't done by SE, but still, something with that level of complexity and deck-building would be really sweet!
