Jan 20, 2019This game is one terrible cash grab from a beloved developer that used to give a damn about there product. now its just micro transactions or pay to win. this isn't what gamer's want... when all the wait and hype for games like left 4 dead and half life went into this.... jeez no one asked for a card game lmao. XD

Dec 3, 2018Очередной донатный высер от Valve. Качают с игроков бабло как могут. Позор некогда великому разработчику!

Nov 30, 2018While a card game from the Dota Univer may have its appeal to some people, there is no excuse for how this game is.
Overall, Artifact is too complicated and too heavily botched with bad RNG.
Not to mention, the only currency in the game is your wallet. On the long run, this game is more expensive than HS and that is never a good thing. -
Dec 1, 2018Hi, I'm Gabe Newell and i want more money. So i've made a donate simualtor. Thank you.

Dec 9, 2018I have 3 tables:
At first you are Mastercard lodges:.
On the second Visa you carefully lay out:
On the third invoice for the house and for the desire .....
Love Gabe -
Nov 29, 2018I'm a casual player, who not pay for game content very often (I prefer f2p system), but in my opinion Artifact is a well design and much more accessible card game than somebody of You thinking. You had to remember that there is some in game currency. You need a real cash to play this game, but on the other side You can earn that cash cause that game, and this isn't too hard.

Nov 29, 2018So greedy game. You have to pay for game, you have to pay for lootboxes and you also have to pay for tickets.

Nov 28, 2018Awful mess of a pay 2 win game. Paid game, and then you need to pay even more to play anything that lets you progress...

Nov 28, 2018Awful gambling-based economy. Other card games relying on gambling as a card acquisition mechanic doesn't mean it's an acceptable model.
-
Nov 29, 2018Greedy fawkers.
Other digital CCGs seem to manage without making you pay to win.
This monetization means you can't pick up and play with friends. You can't try it out to see how it's going to be. And you can't just play casually.
Valve let their game go to their head. I won't be buying any more Valve games. -
Nov 29, 2018Pay to win, pay to play, pay to pay. Pay for card packs, pay for heroes, pay for ranked. You want to make a refund? Oh, sorry, you've played more than 2 games, so you cant take your money back. Great game.

Nov 29, 2018The worst game in human history
Please put 0
Made a pre-order, DO NOT BUY IT! -

Nov 29, 2018The premise of the game is good but the actual gameplay is both somewhat monotonous and overly luck based.
Combined with a new monetization model that is Pay2Pay2Win made me get turned off this game. Wish I could have refunded it but they've smartly done it so that's not possible. -
Nov 29, 2018Габену тупо мало бабок, сначала купи игру, а потом еще донать чтоб нормально играть. 10/10 лучшая игра

Nov 30, 2018Piece of **** + pay to win!
Don't even think about buying it.
You will be very sorry, this is a failure -
Nov 30, 2018well valve got so damn greedy now , just stay away from valve products , example you are now forced to watch artifact advertisement in there other games without a choice to skip that, thanks valve
-
Nov 30, 2018An absolutely cash grab, having to pay a fee of R$ 78,00 just to play ($20), just to be surprised with the fact that every card has a price, making it already competitive broken (Strongest card is R$ 80, more expensive than the game itself).
-
Nov 30, 2018Nice game gaben

- Pay2Win
Valve je bankovní zmetek 30% z prodejů jim nestačí a tak přišli s tímhle.
odpad 0/10 -
Dec 1, 2018Не покупайте! Это слишком! 1400р игра + еще пару десятов тысяч чтоб собрать колоды! Деликов нет! Отдельные карты стоят свыше 700р! Игра только для магнатов!
-
Dec 1, 2018-Looks worse than hearthstone
-Lots of stupid random
-Buy game does not give you the opportunity to fully play it
-Tightened uninteresting matches
-dull gameplay
-Meta of the game is not reduced to a personal skill, but to getting the necessary cards -

Dec 1, 2018This is the new SW:BF2. Pay for the game, pay again for the cards. Can't shard cards you don't need, only sell them on the market or buy new ones. Oh and of course Valve takes a share on each transaction! Great business model Gaben! Games drag for too long for a card game and God, there's so much RNG you will be missing Hearthstone. Don't waste your time and money on this cashgrabbing trash
-
Dec 1, 2018This is not a game, it's a shame. Go to hell, **** greedy.........................

Dec 1, 2018Игра не имеет ничего общего соревновательным режимом, игра для понтов.
-
Dec 2, 2018The game is in Pay-is-Play genre. I truly hope this is an alpha-test or something.

Dec 4, 2018The internal economy is completely absent. You wanna play? Pay for everything! 1 ticket can be bought for$ 1 dollars, but because of the non-working economy in the game, this ticket can be made for$0.3. There is no motivation to collect rare cards, because when you spray them , all cards are equal. There is no motivation to play. Play is not what does not encourage.
-
Dec 5, 2018It is a very bed game. You need buy stuff after you buy game. And where are games with '3' number?
-
Dec 5, 2018Pay for everything? Daaaamned... I don't want to pay for win! I want to use just my skill. Why I SHOULD pay for everything? No no no... thank you Valve. This "game" is not for normal people.

Again, PAY to PLAY..... so.... Again.... PAY to PLAY. Yep, we are VALVE, we love u, sh!t. -
Dec 10, 2018Total P2W garbage. To have a good deck u need to pay 50$. Disgusting, Valve, look at CDPR and learn.
-
Dec 10, 2018Paying for a game that also requires you to pay to continue to play...hmmm no thanks should have at least been free like hearthstone

-
Apr 26, 2019DONT waste TIME and MONEY , yes MONEY, for this C*AP. Friendly advice for the better human's future
-
Nov 8, 2019Half Life 3 died for this. Valve should just let this die too. And start making proper games again.

Jan 30, 2020Игра стоит кучу денег, так ещё и в самой игре покупай кучу паков ради топ колоды

Mar 5, 2021The greedy Gabe Newell made the most greedy game. And when it failed without having time to take off, for several years he made this ridiculous product free of charge. A shameful sight.

Mar 5, 2019Complex and challenging card game, but with some fundamental flaws and bad monetization system that basically killed the game even before it went out.
-
CD-ActionFeb 6, 2019Innovative mechanics designed by Richard Garfield (Magic: The Gathering), rules that you can grasp after just a couple of minutes, clear interface – Artifact is a great game. It’s a shame that it’s huge esports potential can be squandered, because Valve doesn’t seem to care for it enough to implement progression systems, leagues, rankings or means to comfortably communicate with rivals outside an invitation-only friendly tournament. [01/2019, p.58]

Jan 15, 2019In theory, a brilliant card game for a demanding audience. In reality, a concept heavily damaged by bad balancing and a truly terrible monetization system. It may yet prove to be a success in the future - but right now, this is a game for wealthy masochists only.
