<p>Magic has really lost a lot of its appeal to me nowdays.</p>
<p>I still play once per week or two but its just not the same.</p>
<p>It seems now there are cards that just makes games unfun. Delver was not a fun card to play against and neither is Geist. Perhaps I am playing the wrong decks but I don't remember these problems in the past.</p>

<p>The main thing that has made magic lose its appeal to me is the people. Perhaps its because I am now older and a lot of the players are younger than me but I just don't really enjoy the company of any of the players I have met here.</p>
<p>I miss being able to come to the games club have a few beers, chat with people, play settlers and dominion between/before magic. That social interaction is just not there in some places.</p>
<p>Part of me just wants to quit magic as I don't really care for the people, I am not good at it and it costs a fortune, but there is still that competitive side of me that wants to keep playing. That and I don't know what I would do if I didn't play magic, I need something to do during my time off and I have not found anything else I enjoy.</p> Because it's been an easy soc…tag:demonictutor.ning.com,2013-03-02:3440403:Comment:601522013-03-02T10:19:19.557ZDaniel Roydehttp://demonictutor.ning.com/profile/DanielRoyde

<p>wrt magic, I've had some awesome experiences in the last few years, highlights are Worlds in Rome, nats in Sheffield and GP Ghent. The game aside the theme through all those is definitely the people - both hanging out and meeting new and interesting opponents. With regards the game, it's still fascinating how all the cards interact with each other, but I just don't have the time to devote to constructed, nor the desire to drop £££ on a deck that may not even be good. Cube is the nuts, and is my preferred magical format for sure.</p>
