August 1, 2018 -- Artifact, the digital card game from legendary designer Richard Garfield and Valve (Dota 2, Steam), will be playable by attendees of this year’s PAX West in Seattle, WA (Aug 31 – Sept 3) in the game’s first public showing.
Players will battle each other in a continuous single elimination gauntlet for the right to challenge a champion on the main stage. Everyone who plays will earn Artifact merchandise, including signed prints of artwork and two keys for free copies of the game when it is released.
Targeted for release on Steam on November 28th 2018, Artifact is designed to give Trading Card Game (TCG) enthusiasts the deepest gameplay and highest fidelity experience ever in a fantasy card game. Offering more than 280 cards in the shipping set, players will be able to buy and sell cards on the Steam Community Marketplace.
Blah I forgot to add my own words to the thread. I'm really happy with the pricing for Artifact, and that's a good starting point I think. Also, I am still concerned about the crafting system (lack of?) and how you get cards once the game is released in the fall.
I will read more information to see if I can found official statements about crafting in Artifact
Yeah, you can’t buy booster packs and trade cards on Steam. I’m not sure about the trading tbh, unless prices are controlled in some way. Otherwise, won’t rare, powerful cards just be very expensive?
I don't understand why people compare artifact and hearthstone.
2 different games, we can play both. If someone doesn't like hs, should not play instead of write Thread about how they hate this game. People are garbage, specially the frustrated community that want to hate the game but still play.
Prices can't be controlled. If You can trade You can sell. If You can sell You can't control prices. 2nd market will control the prices. How much will card be worth will depend on how hard will the card be to get and the quantity of cards available to "trade".
Hearthstone would be so much better with 2nd market. A man can dream.
The problem is that steam market requirements are: Buy a game per month. (or i'm wrong)?
Also, i like the market but don't like the steam market... It's just another type of grind, yes it's better than receiving only dust... but still grinding

First of all, they're two different games in the same category. You can compare them, although Artifact isn't yet released, and I think people are getting ahead of themselves.
Second, you're insulting people that think HS is flawed and can be a better game, and I agree with them. What does that say about you. It just makes you sound like a Blizzard fanboy.
Personally I'm slowly dropping HS in favor of MtG:A, but I can still appreciate both games, and hope that HS will be improved.

What? I insulted? Where? saying that people are garbage? Because they are, this is the reality. People are garbage.
Also i'm not saying that HS is perfect, lol. I'm saying that if you really don't enjoy this game, get out of here
