I just couldn't click with Hearthstone. Wanted a time killer that I could jump into for a quick game or two and just couldn't figure out what was going on really.
Even at my lowly beginner level it seemed that everyone else knew what was going on and would ace me. And I was just left dumbfounded. Couldn't figure out if it was just me not getting the game or a load of smurfs.
Also doesn't help that there's years and years of content to catch up on and anyone new is just in an ocean of it.
Yeah, it was a bit overwhelming to get into. You only got the ball rolling once you had a good library of cards and could start experimenting.
Maybe get a template/concept from the Internet and then start changing things was how I learned the most.
But the barrier to entry became way too high over time
