Precognition - Read Opponent's Cards? https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=20998.msg268023#msg268023
« on: February 10, 2011, 03:38:30 am »
I don't know if this has been brought up before, and it's probably nothing, but here goes:

I use Golden Nymph on a regular basis. Now, I should know most of these cards off heart by now, but sometimes...I guess it'd just be handy to get a pop-up of my opponent's cards whenever I hover over them (after using precog, of course). You know, just like when I hover over my own hand. Don't get me wrong, it's not a huge deal, but I've not the greatest memory and it can be a pain sometimes.

Just a minor suggestion on my own behalf. Dunno if anyone else feels the same way, but it'd be nice to know I'm not the only one.

The only reason I can think to oppose this suggestion is that Precognition only states that you may "see" the opponent's hand, not examine.  I mean, taking this from a human perspective, the reason you can mouse over any of the cards in your hand and see their description is because you are able to individually examine them, but this is not the case with Precognition.  And since the cards are still within your opponent's control (in their hand), I'm not sure if it would be right for you to be able to just pick one up and read everything about it.  As an aside however, I have oftentimes desired that this card did allow you to examine each card as I oftentimes leave out simple, minor details.

My exact feelings. I wondered if this was intentional. Still...
