    I love that Awaken Realms offers the standee versions. I wouldn't buy many of their games if they didn't offer it. I have zero artistic ability and so I don’t paint minis. I also get sick of endless giant boxes taking up space on my shelves. So giving me all the gameplay content in a compact form for under $100 is a huge win for me.

    22:00 “to see AI art touched up by humans” was a subtle but funny (and true) jab you threw there. Overall Grimcoven’s gameplay doesn’t seem groundbreaking. Shelfside’s review raised a lot of concerns I had with it; especially their KDM friend who gave his opinion on how the combat felt mechanically and thematically

    Thanks for the follow up with the phone call with James Faulkner of Paper Fort Games. It's interesting how you described your phone call vs how he described it in the comments of the Kickstarter. "We had the call, I hope he was satisfied with the answers I gave and he kindly gave me the time to answer my questions too." Everything seems so sketchy with this guy. However, you made me feel better with how your conversation with ReLogic went. I feel like worst case scenario, they would make sure we got our games one way or another. Now only hoping that it's a somewhat decent game. Thanks again for the work that you do KoA!

I got some to play tainted grail with me :D witch I received recently. We do play other games all kinds (skirmish, one shot, boss batlers). But when it comes to roleplay/adventure (generally longer sprawling campaign games) games Dnd is the default game, they want to invest time in.

    The REALITY OF THE BACKERS MONEY is this is Free Financing that the company would otherwise need to go to the Bank to get a Business Loan, pay interest on it, and sure they pay crowd funding fees to get their game listed on a crowdfunding platform, but when you see CMON list something or any other company who can fund themselves you're seeing the company get access to funding rather than a bank. King of Average should speak on this reality. When backers are stiffed or strung along these companies are killing the goose that laid the golden egg because the industry as a whole will suffer when backers won't step up to be the funding source and these companies are forced to go back to the bank, or only larger companies can bankroll games.

    • @sdunn5643

      Kickstarter funneled 8 BILLION through their website. At a 5% take, that gives them $400 million. You think they would be responsible and hold a security fund in reserve to help backers when they get stiffed and go after these scammers. Also refusing LLCs, and the use of Dummy/Shell Businesses that lie about their real origin (East Asian 'designers' with Canadian business shell offices *wink wink*). Start looking into projects. Stop backing unproven companies. Start reporting shady practices. It's your money, be more careful with it.

    I love the standee versions personally. I am not a painter so colorful standees is a nice alternative to mountains of grey plastic. The fact that it saves me money and space to boot is a nice bonus.
    That being said I'll probably be passing on Grimcoven but that's more because I have reservations with the gameplay that's been shown. But on the flip side Blood announcing a standee version made it go from a pass to cautiously optimistic let's see how the game plays for me.

    With respect to Petersen Games, I was under the impression that the US has lost (or never had the know-how) to manufacture game components compared to China. And if they are just now building the factory(ies), how many more years is it going to be before games are delivered? This seems like a major undertaking where so many things can go wrong. Ah well. I backed Hyperspace, and I’ve already written it off.

      According to Peter Ziehan it takes about 4 years to set up manufacturing industries (That's planning, land acquisition, approvals, construction, hiring and troubleshooting. Etc.) and we should have started this process 10 years ago for some industries.

      Tamya is a plastic glue. Works on plastic by melting it and fuseing it once it solidifies again. Resin isnt plastic. To glue resin you need to slightly file/scratch the contact points and glue those with superglue.

    Wanna talk on the Peterson thing. I think the last comment sums up that whole thing. Thank you for catching something I missed with tooling. Probably glossed over it because it's been stuck in tooling for years. Tooling was supposedly complete then a couple were going back to retool. Then a couple more. Then it was every mini. That was I wanna say about 2 years ago. Mystery package isn't something people want to really hear about. Yes I signed for that hoping I could see what this new partnership would bring. So far nothing but disappointment for me. Now they have to start over completely on tooling so we're right back to square one here.
    I've already written off getting hyperspace and I'm in on that for everything. Same with eternal adversary, another Peterson games game. I will agree that hid games are fun but this isn't fun. If we get hyperspacenwithout seeing extra funds bringing asked for, it would be amazing. If they ask for more money I'm not sure that I'll give it. Played a prototype back when it was in campaign and liked it then but I don't know if it will deliver on that fun.
    Then there is quality and what switching manufactures means for that. Rather worried about what I'll get but at this point maybe I shouldn't care anymore. Thought things were starting to look up but feels the same old same old
    On make games, not campaigns : totally need to do that again.

    When are you going to follow up with The Red Joker and get some actual new information about Okko Chronicles: Cycle of Earth? It's now been over six months since their last update, and they've been completely silent about that campaign while delivering another one that funded afterwards. Your last "update" about the game just regurgitated what they said in their update six months ago, so it wasn't really an update, and you didn't even follow up on that.
    You are in a unique position to put pressure on them and get us some new information, as most of us don't have the connections or influence that you have. I think you owe it to backers since you eagerly promoted the Okko Chronicles: Cycle of Earth campaign.

    Not showing the interview and only vaguely alluding to it. Leads me to believe the interview would not stir up the controversy/engagement you desire. Also sounds like your concerns were soundly defeated. If James was a loose cannon wouldn't it be good if backers saw it for themselves?

      Plus the amount of clicks that would bring, "I interviewed the creator of Terraria: The board game, and it didn't go well"

      I get to define my channel and hosting arguments with a developer is not one I want to be known for. The mature thing to do when someone is acting out emotionally as he did is not to show that to 20 thousand people. My summary suffices in doing what my channel is for, informing my viewers of my opinion.
