my main irritation with the play on draw cards not being playable in your hand now is the fact that if you have something like hidden sheath in your hand when the round first starts, you are now either forced to junk it or choose the option to shuffle your deck.
In my opinion, I should not be forced to junk a card that is useless simply because of a rule change. I hate to say this, but I feel like the battle system is slowly going down hill. i still enjoy it, but there have been changes made lately that I do not agree with. Also, not being able to draw an additional cards when you parey something is a change which I feel didn't need to happen. The current system was fine as it was. You paried, you should get a reward for it.
There are a couple of games that i feel need to be toned down a bit. For example, I am having endless trouble with the one where you have to kill the shadows using either the dark or light sword. That one needs to be made a touch easier I think.
I also cannot figure out how to do the one where you have to light up the sells. I understand how to do it, but I always run into a problem where even though I leave the mirror at its current place, sometimes sells will become unlit. One moment i'll have -4 points, the next it'll go back to -12 or -20.
