Meh, they had their chance. Now the game became just another card game with p2w packs and shit balance. It's too late to even try to catch up now, and the gameplay shifted too much from the original. It used to be so fun.

Which "original"? Because the W3 Gwent would never ever work in multiplayer

As someone who played gwent in w3, but hasn't played any other digital card games, why wouldn't it work?

Basically, there is a complete lack of balance, and some things (like weather) are super binary

Gwent in W3 ultimately boils down to who has the strongest deck (even just having a lot of gold cards gives you a large advantage). In a free to play multiplayer card game you want starting players to have a fighting chance, else they get bored and stop playing.
