What's something you usually find cringe but would actually work for a particular game/setting?

For me, it'd be the Gundam card game going all in on Universes Beyond-style crossover slop, since SRW has been around for decades now and most of it's pretty fun.

But the thing is that the Universes Beyond potential was always there, due to the afformentioned SRW connection. MTG was, for the longest time, its own thing, so diving into blatant crossover, specially shit that has nothing to do with it like The Walking Dead and Fallout, that's what make the crossovers feel like empty cashgrabs.

Mecha crossovers with other mecha franchises are 10000000x better than the generic slurry of fortnite slop that is current magic the gathering, Mecha crossovers are more like capeshit crossovers, Spiderman vs Batman is a lot different than Jace Beleren vs SpongeBob fucking SquarePants

also a lot of the crossover shit is all owned by Sunrise/Bamco anyways so Cross Ange showing up in Super Robot Wars is more like D&D tie-ins to Magic the Gathering Planes, again a far cry from Optimus Prime versus Cloud Strife with support from Squidward and Negan from the Walking Dead

What always made crossovers like SRW work is that they have the characters/settings actual interact with each other, unlike say, Fortnite where its the same game just "skins" posted over John Fortnite hitting the gritty.

Not sure how you can get that to work in a card game, though.

TTRPG SRW sounds fun as hell though.

Zoomer problem
And I'm not a zoomer, so I can't relate
