For me, if I ever hear “card-based” or “soulslike” I have absolutely no desire to play a game, no matter how many people reccomend it.
I’m also not a huge fan of modern “roguelikes” but I’ve sunk days into nethack and games like that.

Any sort of deck-building because it feels like homework
This is why I skipped every game of Gwent
“Do you want to play a hand of Caravan?”
Fuck no I don’t. Let me scavenge my caps 6 at a time in peace.
I maintain that Witcher 3 is great storytelling shoved into a shit game.

When I first played Witcher 3 I was like “why the fuck would I play a card game in this vibrant, immersive, story-rich action-adventure game?” and then somewhere along the lines I got to the point where I was running around the whole game world ready to suck dick for Gwent cards. I have no idea how they got me, but Gwent is easily the best game-within-a-game I’ve ever played.
Counterpoint: Yakuza Pocket Circuit.
I never played Yakuza, but that looks rad
I hadn’t thought much about it, but that’s a really good description.
I unironically loved doing Dice Poker in the first Witcher.
Because you didn’t have to run around collecting dice and then use a spreadsheet to organize the dice into an optimized dice stack meta and then lose anyway when you don’t draw the right dice from your pile of random dice
I played Gwent at every opportunity in the Witcher game and thought I’d love the stand-alone Gwent. Boy was I wrong. The mini game was simple enough to learn and not that hard to master. Gwent stand-alone is just too complex to have some simple fun with it.
Should have done like me and literally refused to play a game of Gwent to save a dude’s life
Like sorry bro that sucks and all but I’m just going to kill all of these people
