actually, it's worse... from what i remember from the japanese version, every time you play a card, your cursor will pointlessly fly over the entire card field, checking for active effects. i don't see why this insanely timetaking action is suddenly necessary when the card gameplay is at the same idiotic level as dm7/sacred cards. try playing osiris and you'll find that every time ANY action is taken, it will pop up a screen, reduce its attack to 4000, do the scrolling thing, then pop up a screen raising the attack back up to whatever it is supposed to be. sheer pain.
