"Magic: The Gathering" and Wizards of the Coast, a subsidiary of Hasbro since 1999, might find themselves under new ownership by Disney in the middle of next year. After purchasing Lucasfilm last week for almost $4 billion, a rumor has surfaced today that Disney might also acquire Hasbro.

ThisGenGaming says: "You’ve all heard about the recent internet outrage at EA’s money-making schemes for Star Wars: Battlefront II. And more recently, you might have heard the Belgian government was investigating if games that allowed you to pay for random items with real world currency don’t constitute as “gambling”. This does raise the question if it’s only the games with lootboxes that should fall under scruteny. After all, there are entire games that are built around people spending money to have a better chance at winning than their opponents. The first type of game that comes to mind are Trading Card Games (TCG)..."
Never really thought about it for the TCG side of things... Technically, you are paying money for something that has unknown contents in the hopes of a payout.
Replies(1)trading cards might be different, since trading cards are in stores. Or maybe this is how loot boxes will be justified, saying they are just like trading card games.
Hearthstone is a digital game only at the moment (I think the WoW paper TCG has been discontinued) and Magic has two digital games:MTGO which is a HUGE business and Magic Duels (soon to be replaced by Magic Arena, a game they hope will be easier to get into than the "advanced" MTGO)
Really can't compare. Your normal, regular video games has always been one price, that is when you purchase it. The business model for card games, whether it be irl or digital, has always had a price for the cards. Can't really compare that to MTs in real games.
I agree that games that charge the full amount shouldn't try to earn more via MTs when it can be avoided. And most digital cardgames don't ask a price up front (Though Magic Duels of the Planeswalkers did...). But that has nothing to do with why the business model is being investigated as "gambling": the fact is that you're paying money for an unknown return of value, be it weapons and star cards in SW BFII or different valued cards in TCGs...
From the Vault: Lore will be available worldwide (though only in English only) on August 19. It will be available for Magic Online players October 10.
Disney is taking over, they are buying everything.
I wondered if this would happen, although honestly I expected Disney to team with Mattel, who is their traditional toy manufacturing partner.
Holy ****.
Disney already owns everything Marvel and the Star Wars franchise....now Hasbro? That would mean Transformers and My Little Pony are now Disney.
Disney could make their own console at this rate.
Exclusive Pokemon, Star Wars, Marvel, Magic, and of course Kingdom Hearts and everything else Disney related.
no matter what disney, they better not fuck-up my little pony!
now that the show started getting insteresting...
