Its funny that the thing about Rising Sun that you didn't like is my favorite part of it. The bluffing combat system behind screen is so exiting and its so thrilling trying to guess what your opponents are going for. 😅
And that's great! Not every game needs to be made just for me :D Love that there's variety and I learned a good lesson from Rising Sun about my own tastes in game mechanics and (ideally) back better now because of it :)
Reichbusters is among my favourites of all times still. It's not a game to play every day, or even every month, but when you're in the right mood for it, it can be truly AMAZING. Yes, it take almost 45 minutes to set up. Yes, managing the enemy in the last third of the game can be a pain (but I've become really adept at it). But the way you get into a room, play your combo of cards and kill 7-8 enemies to the cheering of your team... it's just so satisfying.
I enjoy Reichbusters and will never sell it as I spent a long time painting it all. But I have spent 2 hours, on more than one occasion, just setting it up.
Funny enough I don't mind the setup too much on that one, but the noise mechanic just irked me all the time >.< That card gameplay though is chef's kiss!
Massive Darkness: I kind of gave up MD, but for Massive Darkness 2. I have the upgrade kit and so brought all my MD monsters into MD2. All the things I didn't need in MD can go away, but with the upgrade kit, you can use a lot of the good things from MD in MD2, and I love MD2! Bloodbourne: do you have someplace where I can see/hear your house rules? I agree with your assessment of the timer mechanism and randomness. I would love to know of some of your modifications (and of others' modifications) to make this better. Zombicide 1.0: Just like Massive Darkness, I use the different zombie types and twists in my Zombicide 2.0 (or whatever is the latest and greatest) games. I would never play a straight Zombicide 1.0 1st Season game by those rules. Things evolved. But I still love and will play Zombicide by rules that are more of a culmination of Zombicide through the years. Great video. Got me thinking. I can see falling out of "love" due to over-playing a game, but, for me, if there are alternate rules/house rules that enhance the game, I still love it and will play it.
Ooooof, super fantasy brawl. I love it. Issues I have with it are, the mythic drama, the storage, the oversized statues, and the cards don’t have a name of who they belong to. Sure they have an 9con and art, but a name of who’s they are would have gonna long way…
Don' t like the huge Minis(Dragon, Devil, Nemesis, Memed II (The Fantasy Version) etc. Apart from the Apocalypse, we mostly play historical scenarios. The minis that we use are stored on shelves in a display cabinet. The old fashioned way.🙂@@nobbynobbs8182
Interesting take on games after some time. Maybe this is a thing that we should all do after a while, to check if we still like some of our games or we just like the memories they gave us. SFB is one of the best skirmish games published that is relatively short and packed with action. When you first play it it feels childish and simple and luck ridden however if you continue playing it with players with a same skill level it is pure joy to play. It feels like a sporting event when you score those challenges. The team play is interesting if you do a random draw of champions, not choosing them, but what you get you try to work with. Sometimes you get a very strong team and you think you will destroy your opponent, and then something happens where the underdog totally takes you on your game and wins it straight away. I always have fun time with SFB and I will always love the game (I just make a cardboard insert and put all wave 1 and wave 2 champions in the large white box, a deck box with deviders and just kept the 2 red insert for the tokens, it sets up in 2 minutes). As for the Mythic logo on the box, I covered it up with some electrical white tape and don't see it. I understand how seeing Mythic game can evoke feelings.
"No longer love Zombicide" ?!?!? SHUN THE UNBELIEVER!!!!! - lol. That said, I kind of agree with you. First played Zombicide at a friends house and had a blast (Prison Outbreak/Toxic City Mall) then we moved on to Rue Morgue. I had so much fun I went out and bought retail Black Plague for myself and every Kickstarter version since (except for the super hero ones). I've been slowly grabbing the 1st edition parts & pieces but only to use with 2nd edition. My group now only plays with Abomination Fest + Concentrated Attack and/or All-Out rules with at least one random "special" zombie species. We only win about half the time but everyone says they enjoy it ... possibly because we play at my house & I have a plaque on the gameroom wall "have fun or get out" ;-)
I still like Zombicide :) But love? Eh not sure I can commit to that strong of a like :) Sounds like we had almost the same experience btw! Played Prison Outbreak (where we literally had to break out of prison) at a coworker's house and then bought myself Rue Morgue :D
I actually just played Reichbusters a couple weeks back for the first time in years. I had remembered liking it overall, but feeling it was a bit clunky. I actively disliked it when I replayed it though. The clunkiness just really stood out after all these years in comparison to modern boardgames and how they have evolved in just a few years. I found it almost unbearable once the alarm triggered and the enemies activate after every hero turn. Decided to sell it right after. Kind of sad, but I have no desire to ever play it again
Happy with all of SFB and wave 2 in the big white box. Storage felt bad and oversized before wave 2. When that arrived I discarded all the crappy game trays and made a custom insert for it and it stores great.
You talking about MD reminded me of an experience I had just a couple of weeks ago. My first "real" boardgame was Betrayal at House on the Hill a decade ago. I recently bought the 3rd edition to bring home and play with my family during easter. I was shocked at my own "That's it?" reaction after returning to it 😅 you really do evolve when you progress from your gateway games
After making a couple house rules, bloodborne is one of my favourites but that might be because i have an unhealthy obbsession with that ip. I kind of have a a whole tattoo sleeve of bloodborne. Rising sun is probably my groups 2nd favourite game to play behind nemesis. But i totally understand why those games could fall from your favourites and i always appreciate your honesty and takes on my favourite hobby.
This was an interesting video, and definitely makes me think on some games I've fallen out of love with. As far as games you discussed (sorry this will likely be long, lol) Reichbusters is a strange one for me. I passed on the KS (though it was tough) and eventually grabbed the base "pledge" when Mythic had it in one of the fir fire sales. unfortunately it didn't come with the errata pack, so it sits waiting for me to grab one second hand or wait to see what monolith does with it. SFB is still one of my favorites and I'm excited/hopeful that CMON does well with it. Honestly, if all we get is a full Season 2, that would be enough. The only issue I really have right now, is that we don't know when/if CMON will do anything, and the second wave of characters were all very specialized so while fun they didn't expand the roster in the same way more general use champions would have (imo anyways). Townsfolk Tussle is coming in the fall, but we plan to play at 2 (probably 2 characters each) so hopefully the player elimination isn't as big of an issue for us. I do wish more boss battlers did a rogue like mode though. Seems like a great alternative to the narrative style many of them have. I've not played Rising Sun, but I feel you've always disliked the kind of hidden info? Like, we love Unmatched and Exceed, and both of those are lighter but have the same, we both play a card and see what happens. I think you bounced off both of those? maybe I'm misremembering... Bloodborne, we still love. We house ruled the whole "if you lose a scenario start over" to re-do that scenario, and kind of house ruled the timer (it only ends if we both die while it's at the end of the track), but otherwise it's great. I also am not a huge campaign fan, and the 3-scenario campaign is the perfect mix of one-shot/scenario based and full on campaign for my taste. it was a big selling feature of SALKER last year from AR. I strongly disagree about the scenario design, and do not think for a second it was "cheaping out" but an active choice by Lang and Shinnall. I happen to love the tile drawing, despite the issues it can cause (we started kind of stacking the "deck" similar to how Claustrophobia has you do, which is another favorite). I actually wish more crawlers did the tile drawing, as it mixes things up more. Though you dislike randomness a bit more than i do I think :) Zombicide....we originally played Black plague a couple of time and it was fine. I backed marvel Zombies for the same reason you backed DC (I also enjoy playing AS the Zombies and the Heroes) and it really clicked. It's not my number 1, but they addressed every major issue I had with BP. Anyways...that was way too long. Sorry :/
great vid, as always! i almost backed joan of arc back then because you were so enthousiastic. glad i did not. set up and storage get more and more important for me these days 👊🏻.
it’s really funny that you dig the newer zombicide more and the older one’s are not high in your list anymore. for me it’s the other way around. i prefer the more simple zombicide like black plague. i did enjoy marvel a lot, though, but i didnt back it, a buddy did.
I completely agree on the SF miniatures game, but the reason they don't feel different is because the designers of the game are bad designers. Look at Unmatched, a VERY similar game but every character feels COMPLETELY different from each other AND they're all extremely thematic. They dropped the ball hard with the SF miniatures game. People on their discord actually did a huge overhaul of the game's characters to make them better which took years and currently they're doing a print-run for it.
They are? Can you send a link, I didn't know they were actually going to do that? Last time I suggested they PoD that stuff they weren't interested :-/
love the street-fighter game. The community is doing a great job with some balance fixes. they have a light band-aid fix called, 'Turbo edition', which i have started playing on my channel. the next is the full Fan overhaul called 'Champions Edition'. im organizing the print-run. but we have just closed our first block of printing, catering to the creators and the most active in the community first.
Haha i would have guessed you would behind that :) i love SF still, so many choices, but I am intrigued about these changes. Are these available to self print or will we need to wait for the second block of printing? @mikeglasswell-gameplay
Rising is sun never leaving my collection! Playing on the playmat, bluffing, I love how the diplomacy works and you can battle etc its awesome! I get some reasons you stopped playing your list! I could never bring myself to get into massive darkness!
I think with massive darkness its one of the games I won't play very often, but when I do we have a great time playing it, the second one's theme didn't grab me, Zombicide I think has been milked to within an inch of its life, pick the theme you like and only get stuff for that, Black plage is still our favorite to put on the table. I have Marvel Zombeis and it just does not interest me now I have it sat on the shelf and have recently tried to sell it off, but its very expensive and no one has bitten. Descent 1st edition fell out of favor very quickly I found it boring, and the second one never interested me, but the new one is brilliant, I am hoping that Dante is going to be something along those lines with the 3D maps that change. Also with Townsfolk tussle, I think its good but when you strip back the artwork and theme, it really is an average game, I feel bad for saying that, because even so its a good game,I would never sell it, but its not a game I would play all the time.
Still have reichbusters and enjoy it. Card combat is awesome for sure. I feel like if it had simultaneous player turns it would be much better and the noise system would be easier to tie in.
Hey dude. I think you missed the point with SFB...i think your main critiscism was feeling like you've seen all the cards before .Did you get any of the expansions or just the core? I guess i can kind of see it getting a bit stale if you have the c0re game. Buuuut..... part of the point with SFB is to become familiar with all the fighters/cards, then use this information within the tightly fought matches to make optimisation judegment calls. This is why the discard piles are open information. One of the beauties of this game is sitting there knowing that your oponent has either X or Y card, (as process of elimination using their discard pile) and then trying to decide which action/gambit to take. It's very exciting. Keep up the good work!
With Set up I never really have a problem because I personally Set up the game before my group shows up. For me because of that Separate it with the game play of games. Descent First Edition is better then Second Edition, the new one I won't even get just because its app based. First edition just had more of a Dungeon delving feel while Second edition felt more small skirmish based. Townsfolk Tussle is so good, however whenever I play a game with player elimination, I house rule that they can grab another character and put them into the game, because lets be honest Player elimination in any game is dumb.
Bloodborne is my 2nd best boardgame of all time, i dont recomendent it with more then 2 players, and have some luck aspect with tile drawn, but its to fun to play, every combat is new puzzle to solve, u cant be slow but you want to level and need to make mix of runing away and fighting monsters. For me its perfect 2 player co op game (or solo)
I see your point for Townsfolk tussle with the player elimination. I will only play the game with two players with two characters each so you will still be playing if once character dies.
I really enjoy playing Massive Darkness 2 with my family. Same with Rising Sun. Root however I really enjoy but really hard to get to the table. Also hoping season 3 of Batman Gotham City Chronicles makes it easier to table as well.
Coincidently, Massive Darkness was my first Kickstarter as well. I'd picked up Zombicide Black Plague a little bit before that and loved it. So, i was looking it over and said to myself "it's got similar mechanics, similar systems. It's gonna be more of the same, but BETTER!"... ... ... I tried, I REALLY tried to like that game. After about 3-4 sessions I put it back on the shelf and eventually sold it a couple years ago. Love the mini's, love the idea of the game, it just didn't work out for me.
Out of all the channels I follow you are with out a doubt the only one who gives a truly honest and fair assessment of a game. For me to add a game into my collection it has to fit a certain criteria. First it has to have a theme I really enjoy. Examples being Cthulhu, Sci Fi, zombies and things like that. Second is I want art I truly enjoy seeing. Something that visually immerses into that world. Third I want choices of characters to be with lots of replay ability. Storage and set up time are factors but can be overlooked if they are not excessive and the top three criteria are ment. Last but not least price. It seems as tho we are at a time where almost every game coming out is hundreds of dollars to get everything. That seems ridiculous to me but that's just my opinion. My favorite games that I still love are Cthulhu Death May Die, Marvel Champions, Shadows of Brimstone and Maximum Apocalypse. I feel for the money and what you get all of these are great games. Maximum Apocalypse is a great example of a game where as they got bigger listened to the customer feed back. I own all of them and love each and every one when I bring them to the table. As they made new ones they made changes to fix complaints like set up time and fixes for the older ones as well. I feel like they don't get the love they deserve especially in a time where game developers are releasing games now with broken mechanics and major mistakes and just don't care. I just ordered Fallen Land 2 nd edition and I am very excited to get this one to the table. Keep bringing us the great content my friend. I truly appreciate it.
That Joan of Arc is a hell of a setup. I will have two dedicated gaming tables soon and I think that will get a spot on one for while. I have a few games that are great to play but the setup tends to drain the fun out of them.
I’m still waiting for those additional bases for Joan Arc so I could have larger battles and the reason I bought additional expansions. Barely played it as a result but at least I got my game compared to some others.
Sounds like you had fun with all the game but your tastes/interests changed the more you played different games. Rising Sun was my first game I backed and the reason I started watching your channel as I went to paint my minis. It's a favorite game of mine but it just doesn't get played much. the only thing I didn't like about it was the Kami Unbound part but could always play without that. Had lots of fun with it and was fun to paint.
Almost sold Reichbusters after playing through the whole thing and enjoying it. Put it back on the table yesterday and after one mission decided I will be selling it after all.
@@TheKingofAverage The noise element and awareness element of the game were a big miss for me. After killing everything in the room then having to roll for noise to pick items up didn’t make a lot of sense to me. The awareness just became too fiddly and the alarm tracker didn’t leave much time to explore the world of Reichbusters. I did love the card combos but at the end of the day it didn’t save the game from leaving my collection.
Totally feel that with street fighter TMG. I'm a die hard fighting game fan so it'll stay in my collection. But right after I got it on the secendary market, my wife got us unmatched. Very similar game, easier set up and a better mix of characters and mechanics. We table that way more. But like you said, I like sftmg for it's ip so it won't ever go.
I find this interesting because my sons and I feel completely the opposite about street fighter vs unmatched. We find street fighter much more engaging there are things that you can learn to do with each character that is much more fun to us.
@@heathgray1277 I think it's the side kick and playing two champions at a time that puts unmatched over the edge for us. It's more of a positioning and strategy game when played at 4 total champions.
I have quite a few that are on this list: Joan of Arc, Reichbusters, Zombicide, Massive Darkness, Rising Sun and Bloodborne. I do not have Super Fantasy Brawl, Townsfolk Tussle or Descent as none really appealed to me. I tend to agree with you on most of these. I probably will end up getting rid of Bloodborne. I still really like Rising Sun but I do tend to prefer Blood Rage or Ankh over it, so it rarely gets to the table even though I painted the whole game. I still like Reichbusters (also painted which may make me more inclined to be positive about it) quite a bit as well but the caveat here is that I have to set up the game before everyone arrives since setup takes way too long. This is my same issue with Joan of Arc (although I made a decent storage solution and step up does not take me 3 hours - probably does take up to an hour though). I was getting ready to get rid of my Massive Darkness when they announced MD 2, which I wound up backing. I will never play the original again but do use allot of it for MD 2.
I’ve had about half of these and soured on them as well. The only one I still have that I’m holding out hope for is Super Fantasy Brawl. It’s been my favorite game to paint. I haven’t gotten it to the table yet (and at this point, maybe I never will), but I still hold out hope!
@@garylangford6755I had a sneaking suspicion that might be the case. I don't really ever hear of anyone playing this game regularly, so I wondered if it just might not be a satisfying game experience despite the great production values. Well, I've still enjoyed painting it _a lot_ , and Mythic can't take that away from me.
@@garylangford6755 Yep, already painting those as well. I've also got all of Warhammer Underworlds, Massive Darkness 2, some Warcry...I'll never run out of enjoyable stuff to paint. And yet, I still spend an inordinate amount of my time playing PC games and watching UA-cam. 😩
Im still enjoying bloodborne. I think it captures the video game quite well. I will defend the timer as it keeps the stakes high and helps negate farming. I think its a bit silly to restart the entire campaign but easily ignored.
Interesting how interests change over time. Of this list the only 2 games I'd played before are both games I like. SFB which is a great pick up and play game with an easy to learn hard to master feel to it and Bloodborne, which I backed without even knowing it was an IP. I really enjoy the board game although I will admit I still have one of the expansion boxes in the shrink wrap but I've played through most of the core box thus far and am sure I'll have more plays with it in the future.
I think a lot of it comes down to play group as well As I said often I find no one willing to challenge Shinto placement and that kind of breaks the game down sadly
I also really liked Bloodborne the BG… but, it didn’t have a great rulebook that needed an errata right away and houserules on top of that I felt it needed too. Good game overall but I had to get rid of my copy as well.
- Where is "Masters of the Universe: Fields of Eternia" ?????? I thought you would add it to your list. Are you still as enthousiastic about this one ? "MOTU: Battleground" is awesome, but FoE was such a disappointment for so many players... I am genuinely interested on your thoughts about this one as I have it on my shelves but hadn't the chance to play it yet due to it's bad reputation 😔 - I unfortunately agree with "JoA" : juste the same feelings as you. At first, I fell in love with it, then I couldn't bare anymore set up and tear down 😒So I just sold it. What a pity ! - I do enjoy "Super Fantasy Brawl" a lot. - "Bloodborne the BG" : I still love it ! My main issue with it is the constant respawning thing for monsters. I can pass over it, but it feels less epic to know that each and every monster you slay will spawn again in the exact same spot a few turns later. Other than that, I love it !
@@TheKingofAverage Thank you for answering. Actually, when I watched your video for "MOTU: Fields of Eternia" ( ua-cam.com/video/JlbOQI8l1ag/v-deo.html ) you sounded so enthusiastic to me that it really felt that you did LOVE this game, but fine 😉
I wanted to like Bloodborne the board game, but my biggest issue with the game is the timer and rushness of it. I love the video game so much and I just wanted more from it. I ended up selling my all in pledge that I painted. I should have played it before painting it ha.
I have Joan of Arc and like the game but yeah….. hate the set up. It can take an hour to set up. I know that if they were all painted and based that would speed things up but I haven’t painted any of it yet. I’m thinking of selling Bardsung, trying to sell Trudvang Legends so far no takers. Don’t own any of the other games you mentioned.
Hmm it's certainly possible. The game is certainly light and looking back that means it's quite the pricey light game. I like to think I keep growing as a gamer and a reviewer. Might be interesting to review some of my older reviews haha
As for Zombiced I rather prefer 1st ed with some of the rules mixed in to what ever scenario I wanted to set up. I could never get into 2nd ed and my group says about the same thing. Black Plague is the preferred version my group likes to play. I would have to think of games that I loved but no longer. I think the one that comes to the top of my head is Dead of Winter. I just remember when that first came out I loved to play it but for some reason someone mentions it and everyone just go nay...
Good discussion! My list would probably have Last Night on Earth Fortune and Glory Bloodborne Dominion Modern Zombicide Original Arena the Contest Catan Mansions of Madness 2E
I wanted to love Zombicide, but I found it too simple, long, and random. Deep Rock Galactic is more what I wished Zombicide was, and it has become my favorite dungeon crawler.
Now that Monolith owns the Reichbusters IP, I am hoping they can fix all the issues. I still play Descent 2nd Edition; my gaming group and I cannot stand the new FFG Descent and will not touch it even if given to me for free. It obviously does not come out as often as it did, but at least once or twice per year my gaming group gets the itch to play if for no reason to talk about the great gaming sessions we all had with this game. Decent 2nd Edition is never leaving my collection and I believe FFG did it a disservice with the current version of the game. Joan of Arc is awful. The implementation is awful, the rulebook is terrible. I have taken all the miniatures and purchased a miniature skirmish rulebook and proxy miniatures for the wargame. All the cardboard is stuck in a box never to be seen again. Sadly, because of all the issues and IP fights, it will never be fixed. It was a waste of money and after that game no longer wanted to back future Mythic games products. After I purchased Zombicide Black Plague and the expansions available at retail, I decided I had enough Zombicide. I no longer want any more Zombicide. We usually take it now around Halloween and play in the fall using the many scenarios CMON released online.
I'll say the first one specifically, but only because I never loved the 2nd one. I just feel like my tastes in the games I want to play have shifted away from that style somewhat so no real love lost by the time 2 came out. I was dumb and bought it all but ended up giving it away.
What’s sad is that I own quite a few on this list- Joan of Arc, Descent, Zombicide, Massive Darkness and Reichbusters. None of them make it to my table much any more, although Massive Darkness’ components work in MD2 with the upgrade kit so still getting use there. I’m selling off my Zombicide stuff ff but the market is not too strong. Joan of Arc setup can be mitigated a little bit if you glue the figs to the bases and then store the base assemblies in an organized fashion and use some Plano boxes for the tokens. But I just found the gameplay to be kind of underwhelming overall, despite how good it looked on the table. Hard to sell that one off too due to the size of the boxes. So probably stuck with JoA for now. Will probably keep Descent for the minis for other games.
Zombicides was a trailblazer for fun, plastic crack a decade ago, but similarly, other games have come along that are better. With respect to Bloodborne, I still hold it in high regard because of some simple house rules. However, I'm a whimp and don't like the demon souls series, so I'm a bit detached from the IP.
They way you talk about rising sun sounds like you played a diffrent game. Why would you be blind guessing in rising sun? Your suppose to announce money before bids. I would agree it seems some starting factions are a bit more useful then others. But definitely able to play to your factions strength. but having the right faction helps. Like the faction that can play any tile can always get betray if needed
I did but gave it away quickly. While it's plenty fun I think I've moved past that particular style in my gaming tastes more since the first one, the silly art style bothered me a bit at times and I disliked having to remember all the specific rules for various classes.
This list is almost a damnation on crowdfunding ... Bunch of games with issues that pll originally loved because of the ks overating, delivery hype and buyers' remorse.. Agreed on bloodbourne .. that game is utter garbage .. i have no idea how its rated an 8
Thanks for the great video, I think this is true to everyone in the hobby. As the collection grows and you go out and play more, the things once loved might fade. I love how Townsfolk Tussle made the list, a boss battler where one wrong move or roll can kill you....wait, don't you play KDM? 😉 My same thoughts on Bloodbourne, I'm thinking of working on a map book like Elden Ring, moving along a dedicated map space makes way more sense. I think the timer track needs to be a moon cycle track that the player needs to manipulate as an exploration / boss fight mechanic.
I fell out of love with Nemesis. I like the game and traitor mechanics, but everyone I play with hate it. And myself I feel like they don't give you the option to truly mess someone up, like throw a grenade in the room where they are (the only way is if they are together with an alien).
Joan of Arc was my first or second game I had HUGE fomo about that I didnt back. I am both happy and sad about it. I want it. But I also want a version thats actually playable. The gameplay seems neat, and I LOVE the tiny humans vs giant monsters. It just looks so gosh darn cool.
Its funny that the thing about Rising Sun that you didn't like is my favorite part of it. The bluffing combat system behind screen is so exiting and its so thrilling trying to guess what your opponents are going for. 😅
And that's great! Not every game needs to be made just for me :D Love that there's variety and I learned a good lesson from Rising Sun about my own tastes in game mechanics and (ideally) back better now because of it :)
Reichbusters is among my favourites of all times still. It's not a game to play every day, or even every month, but when you're in the right mood for it, it can be truly AMAZING. Yes, it take almost 45 minutes to set up. Yes, managing the enemy in the last third of the game can be a pain (but I've become really adept at it). But the way you get into a room, play your combo of cards and kill 7-8 enemies to the cheering of your team... it's just so satisfying.
I enjoy Reichbusters and will never sell it as I spent a long time painting it all. But I have spent 2 hours, on more than one occasion, just setting it up.
I'll never get rid of my copy either it's soo much fun!
Funny enough I don't mind the setup too much on that one, but the noise mechanic just irked me all the time >.< That card gameplay though is chef's kiss!
How are the 2.0 rules? I've yet to play my copy but I loved painting it's mini's
Massive Darkness: I kind of gave up MD, but for Massive Darkness 2. I have the upgrade kit and so brought all my MD monsters into MD2. All the things I didn't need in MD can go away, but with the upgrade kit, you can use a lot of the good things from MD in MD2, and I love MD2!
Bloodbourne: do you have someplace where I can see/hear your house rules? I agree with your assessment of the timer mechanism and randomness. I would love to know of some of your modifications (and of others' modifications) to make this better.
Zombicide 1.0: Just like Massive Darkness, I use the different zombie types and twists in my Zombicide 2.0 (or whatever is the latest and greatest) games. I would never play a straight Zombicide 1.0 1st Season game by those rules. Things evolved. But I still love and will play Zombicide by rules that are more of a culmination of Zombicide through the years.
Great video. Got me thinking. I can see falling out of "love" due to over-playing a game, but, for me, if there are alternate rules/house rules that enhance the game, I still love it and will play it.
Ooooof, super fantasy brawl. I love it. Issues I have with it are, the mythic drama, the storage, the oversized statues, and the cards don’t have a name of who they belong to. Sure they have an 9con and art, but a name of who’s they are would have gonna long way…
The art work makes it very obvious IMHO
I lovvvve street fighter. My whole staff from work will have get-togethers and play it for hours.
Still love JoA. One of the most played games that my wife and play(the scenarios). Minis are glued and painted. So setup time is about 20-30min.
How do you store everything? Any tips to save space?
Don' t like the huge Minis(Dragon, Devil, Nemesis, Memed II (The Fantasy Version) etc. Apart from the Apocalypse, we mostly play historical scenarios. The minis that we use are stored on shelves in a display cabinet. The old fashioned way.🙂@@nobbynobbs8182
@@nobbynobbs8182Deluxe storage box defenitely helps. I also have minis thematically sorted in organizers (similar to Darkest Dungeon organizer).
Interesting take on games after some time. Maybe this is a thing that we should all do after a while, to check if we still like some of our games or we just like the memories they gave us.
SFB is one of the best skirmish games published that is relatively short and packed with action. When you first play it it feels childish and simple and luck ridden however if you continue playing it with players with a same skill level it is pure joy to play. It feels like a sporting event when you score those challenges. The team play is interesting if you do a random draw of champions, not choosing them, but what you get you try to work with. Sometimes you get a very strong team and you think you will destroy your opponent, and then something happens where the underdog totally takes you on your game and wins it straight away.
I always have fun time with SFB and I will always love the game (I just make a cardboard insert and put all wave 1 and wave 2 champions in the large white box, a deck box with deviders and just kept the 2 red insert for the tokens, it sets up in 2 minutes).
As for the Mythic logo on the box, I covered it up with some electrical white tape and don't see it. I understand how seeing Mythic game can evoke feelings.
"No longer love Zombicide" ?!?!? SHUN THE UNBELIEVER!!!!! - lol. That said, I kind of agree with you. First played Zombicide at a friends house and had a blast (Prison Outbreak/Toxic City Mall) then we moved on to Rue Morgue. I had so much fun I went out and bought retail Black Plague for myself and every Kickstarter version since (except for the super hero ones). I've been slowly grabbing the 1st edition parts & pieces but only to use with 2nd edition. My group now only plays with Abomination Fest + Concentrated Attack and/or All-Out rules with at least one random "special" zombie species. We only win about half the time but everyone says they enjoy it ... possibly because we play at my house & I have a plaque on the gameroom wall "have fun or get out" ;-)
I still like Zombicide :) But love? Eh not sure I can commit to that strong of a like :)
Sounds like we had almost the same experience btw! Played Prison Outbreak (where we literally had to break out of prison) at a coworker's house and then bought myself Rue Morgue :D
I actually just played Reichbusters a couple weeks back for the first time in years. I had remembered liking it overall, but feeling it was a bit clunky. I actively disliked it when I replayed it though. The clunkiness just really stood out after all these years in comparison to modern boardgames and how they have evolved in just a few years. I found it almost unbearable once the alarm triggered and the enemies activate after every hero turn. Decided to sell it right after. Kind of sad, but I have no desire to ever play it again
Happy with all of SFB and wave 2 in the big white box. Storage felt bad and oversized before wave 2. When that arrived I discarded all the crappy game trays and made a custom insert for it and it stores great.
it's an excellent game is n't it
You talking about MD reminded me of an experience I had just a couple of weeks ago. My first "real" boardgame was Betrayal at House on the Hill a decade ago. I recently bought the 3rd edition to bring home and play with my family during easter. I was shocked at my own "That's it?" reaction after returning to it 😅 you really do evolve when you progress from your gateway games
After making a couple house rules, bloodborne is one of my favourites but that might be because i have an unhealthy obbsession with that ip. I kind of have a a whole tattoo sleeve of bloodborne. Rising sun is probably my groups 2nd favourite game to play behind nemesis. But i totally understand why those games could fall from your favourites and i always appreciate your honesty and takes on my favourite hobby.
This was an interesting video, and definitely makes me think on some games I've fallen out of love with. As far as games you discussed (sorry this will likely be long, lol)
Reichbusters is a strange one for me. I passed on the KS (though it was tough) and eventually grabbed the base "pledge" when Mythic had it in one of the fir fire sales. unfortunately it didn't come with the errata pack, so it sits waiting for me to grab one second hand or wait to see what monolith does with it.
SFB is still one of my favorites and I'm excited/hopeful that CMON does well with it. Honestly, if all we get is a full Season 2, that would be enough. The only issue I really have right now, is that we don't know when/if CMON will do anything, and the second wave of characters were all very specialized so while fun they didn't expand the roster in the same way more general use champions would have (imo anyways).
Townsfolk Tussle is coming in the fall, but we plan to play at 2 (probably 2 characters each) so hopefully the player elimination isn't as big of an issue for us. I do wish more boss battlers did a rogue like mode though. Seems like a great alternative to the narrative style many of them have.
I've not played Rising Sun, but I feel you've always disliked the kind of hidden info? Like, we love Unmatched and Exceed, and both of those are lighter but have the same, we both play a card and see what happens. I think you bounced off both of those? maybe I'm misremembering...
Bloodborne, we still love. We house ruled the whole "if you lose a scenario start over" to re-do that scenario, and kind of house ruled the timer (it only ends if we both die while it's at the end of the track), but otherwise it's great. I also am not a huge campaign fan, and the 3-scenario campaign is the perfect mix of one-shot/scenario based and full on campaign for my taste. it was a big selling feature of SALKER last year from AR.
I strongly disagree about the scenario design, and do not think for a second it was "cheaping out" but an active choice by Lang and Shinnall. I happen to love the tile drawing, despite the issues it can cause (we started kind of stacking the "deck" similar to how Claustrophobia has you do, which is another favorite). I actually wish more crawlers did the tile drawing, as it mixes things up more. Though you dislike randomness a bit more than i do I think :)
Zombicide....we originally played Black plague a couple of time and it was fine. I backed marvel Zombies for the same reason you backed DC (I also enjoy playing AS the Zombies and the Heroes) and it really clicked. It's not my number 1, but they addressed every major issue I had with BP.
Anyways...that was way too long. Sorry :/
great vid, as always!
i almost backed joan of arc back then because you were so enthousiastic. glad i did not. set up and storage get more and more important for me these days 👊🏻.
it’s really funny that you dig the newer zombicide more and the older one’s are not high in your list anymore. for me it’s the other way around. i prefer the more simple zombicide like black plague. i did enjoy marvel a lot, though, but i didnt back it, a buddy did.
Descent, a classic!! Play campaign, with overlord, single quest, campaign with app. Solo, so much game. Such a classic.
I’ll never sell my Descent 2nd edition. It’s a great way to introduce people and kids to the dungeon crawlers.
One of my best games I bought retail so only have core box it's brilliant solo.
I completely agree on the SF miniatures game, but the reason they don't feel different is because the designers of the game are bad designers. Look at Unmatched, a VERY similar game but every character feels COMPLETELY different from each other AND they're all extremely thematic. They dropped the ball hard with the SF miniatures game. People on their discord actually did a huge overhaul of the game's characters to make them better which took years and currently they're doing a print-run for it.
They are? Can you send a link, I didn't know they were actually going to do that? Last time I suggested they PoD that stuff they weren't interested :-/
following
love the street-fighter game. The community is doing a great job with some balance fixes. they have a light band-aid fix called, 'Turbo edition', which i have started playing on my channel. the next is the full Fan overhaul called 'Champions Edition'. im organizing the print-run. but we have just closed our first block of printing, catering to the creators and the most active in the community first.
Haha i would have guessed you would behind that :) i love SF still, so many choices, but I am intrigued about these changes. Are these available to self print or will we need to wait for the second block of printing? @mikeglasswell-gameplay
Rising is sun never leaving my collection! Playing on the playmat, bluffing, I love how the diplomacy works and you can battle etc its awesome! I get some reasons you stopped playing your list! I could never bring myself to get into massive darkness!
I think with massive darkness its one of the games I won't play very often, but when I do we have a great time playing it, the second one's theme didn't grab me, Zombicide I think has been milked to within an inch of its life, pick the theme you like and only get stuff for that, Black plage is still our favorite to put on the table. I have Marvel Zombeis and it just does not interest me now I have it sat on the shelf and have recently tried to sell it off, but its very expensive and no one has bitten. Descent 1st edition fell out of favor very quickly I found it boring, and the second one never interested me, but the new one is brilliant, I am hoping that Dante is going to be something along those lines with the 3D maps that change.
Also with Townsfolk tussle, I think its good but when you strip back the artwork and theme, it really is an average game, I feel bad for saying that, because even so its a good game,I would never sell it, but its not a game I would play all the time.
Still have reichbusters and enjoy it. Card combat is awesome for sure. I feel like if it had simultaneous player turns it would be much better and the noise system would be easier to tie in.
What is the top 10 you liked more as the more you played it?
I will give this some thought!
@@TheKingofAverage It is a cool idea tho right :D.
Hey dude. I think you missed the point with SFB...i think your main critiscism was feeling like you've seen all the cards before .Did you get any of the expansions or just the core? I guess i can kind of see it getting a bit stale if you have the c0re game. Buuuut..... part of the point with SFB is to become familiar with all the fighters/cards, then use this information within the tightly fought matches to make optimisation judegment calls. This is why the discard piles are open information. One of the beauties of this game is sitting there knowing that your oponent has either X or Y card, (as process of elimination using their discard pile) and then trying to decide which action/gambit to take. It's very exciting.
Keep up the good work!
With Set up I never really have a problem because I personally Set up the game before my group shows up. For me because of that Separate it with the game play of games.
Descent First Edition is better then Second Edition, the new one I won't even get just because its app based. First edition just had more of a Dungeon delving feel while Second edition felt more small skirmish based.
Townsfolk Tussle is so good, however whenever I play a game with player elimination, I house rule that they can grab another character and put them into the game, because lets be honest Player elimination in any game is dumb.
Bloodborne is my 2nd best boardgame of all time, i dont recomendent it with more then 2 players, and have some luck aspect with tile drawn, but its to fun to play, every combat is new puzzle to solve, u cant be slow but you want to level and need to make mix of runing away and fighting monsters. For me its perfect 2 player co op game (or solo)
It's a fantastic game.
I see your point for Townsfolk tussle with the player elimination. I will only play the game with two players with two characters each so you will still be playing if once character dies.
I really enjoy playing Massive Darkness 2 with my family. Same with Rising Sun. Root however I really enjoy but really hard to get to the table. Also hoping season 3 of Batman Gotham City Chronicles makes it easier to table as well.
Coincidently, Massive Darkness was my first Kickstarter as well. I'd picked up Zombicide Black Plague a little bit before that and loved it. So, i was looking it over and said to myself "it's got similar mechanics, similar systems. It's gonna be more of the same, but BETTER!"... ... ... I tried, I REALLY tried to like that game. After about 3-4 sessions I put it back on the shelf and eventually sold it a couple years ago. Love the mini's, love the idea of the game, it just didn't work out for me.
Out of all the channels I follow you are with out a doubt the only one who gives a truly honest and fair assessment of a game. For me to add a game into my collection it has to fit a certain criteria. First it has to have a theme I really enjoy. Examples being Cthulhu, Sci Fi, zombies and things like that. Second is I want art I truly enjoy seeing. Something that visually immerses into that world. Third I want choices of characters to be with lots of replay ability. Storage and set up time are factors but can be overlooked if they are not excessive and the top three criteria are ment. Last but not least price. It seems as tho we are at a time where almost every game coming out is hundreds of dollars to get everything. That seems ridiculous to me but that's just my opinion. My favorite games that I still love are Cthulhu Death May Die, Marvel Champions, Shadows of Brimstone and Maximum Apocalypse. I feel for the money and what you get all of these are great games. Maximum Apocalypse is a great example of a game where as they got bigger listened to the customer feed back. I own all of them and love each and every one when I bring them to the table. As they made new ones they made changes to fix complaints like set up time and fixes for the older ones as well. I feel like they don't get the love they deserve especially in a time where game developers are releasing games now with broken mechanics and major mistakes and just don't care. I just ordered Fallen Land 2 nd edition and I am very excited to get this one to the table. Keep bringing us the great content my friend. I truly appreciate it.
DMD is definitely a banger :D I'll have to look into Maximum Apocalypse more!
That Joan of Arc is a hell of a setup. I will have two dedicated gaming tables soon and I think that will get a spot on one for while. I have a few games that are great to play but the setup tends to drain the fun out of them.
I’m still waiting for those additional bases for Joan Arc so I could have larger battles and the reason I bought additional expansions. Barely played it as a result but at least I got my game compared to some others.
They won't ever send it, no chance.
Sounds like you had fun with all the game but your tastes/interests changed the more you played different games. Rising Sun was my first game I backed and the reason I started watching your channel as I went to paint my minis. It's a favorite game of mine but it just doesn't get played much. the only thing I didn't like about it was the Kami Unbound part but could always play without that. Had lots of fun with it and was fun to paint.
Exactly! I feel more than anything it's just me growing as a gamer and solidifying what I like more.
JoA setup 3 hours? I think you're exaggerating a bit, LOL. Deluxe Storage Box helps.. ;)
Almost sold Reichbusters after playing through the whole thing and enjoying it. Put it back on the table yesterday and after one mission decided I will be selling it after all.
Have a determining factor that caused that decision?
@@TheKingofAverage The noise element and awareness element of the game were a big miss for me. After killing everything in the room then having to roll for noise to pick items up didn’t make a lot of sense to me. The awareness just became too fiddly and the alarm tracker didn’t leave much time to explore the world of Reichbusters. I did love the card combos but at the end of the day it didn’t save the game from leaving my collection.
Totally feel that with street fighter TMG. I'm a die hard fighting game fan so it'll stay in my collection. But right after I got it on the secendary market, my wife got us unmatched. Very similar game, easier set up and a better mix of characters and mechanics. We table that way more. But like you said, I like sftmg for it's ip so it won't ever go.
I find this interesting because my sons and I feel completely the opposite about street fighter vs unmatched. We find street fighter much more engaging there are things that you can learn to do with each character that is much more fun to us.
@@heathgray1277 I think it's the side kick and playing two champions at a time that puts unmatched over the edge for us. It's more of a positioning and strategy game when played at 4 total champions.
I hear good things about unmatched but it has such boring looking table precense
Absolutely love the Streetfighter Miniatures game. fun game.
I have quite a few that are on this list: Joan of Arc, Reichbusters, Zombicide, Massive Darkness, Rising Sun and Bloodborne. I do not have Super Fantasy Brawl, Townsfolk Tussle or Descent as none really appealed to me. I tend to agree with you on most of these. I probably will end up getting rid of Bloodborne. I still really like Rising Sun but I do tend to prefer Blood Rage or Ankh over it, so it rarely gets to the table even though I painted the whole game. I still like Reichbusters (also painted which may make me more inclined to be positive about it) quite a bit as well but the caveat here is that I have to set up the game before everyone arrives since setup takes way too long. This is my same issue with Joan of Arc (although I made a decent storage solution and step up does not take me 3 hours - probably does take up to an hour though). I was getting ready to get rid of my Massive Darkness when they announced MD 2, which I wound up backing. I will never play the original again but do use allot of it for MD 2.
I’ve had about half of these and soured on them as well. The only one I still have that I’m holding out hope for is Super Fantasy Brawl. It’s been my favorite game to paint. I haven’t gotten it to the table yet (and at this point, maybe I never will), but I still hold out hope!
Super fantasy brawl I feel is riddled with luck and feeling terrible if you're losing
@@garylangford6755I had a sneaking suspicion that might be the case. I don't really ever hear of anyone playing this game regularly, so I wondered if it just might not be a satisfying game experience despite the great production values. Well, I've still enjoyed painting it _a lot_ , and Mythic can't take that away from me.
@@01hornsfan the minis look great! You will also like marvel united minis too as they are similar cartoony, and massive with sculpted bases
@@garylangford6755 Yep, already painting those as well. I've also got all of Warhammer Underworlds, Massive Darkness 2, some Warcry...I'll never run out of enjoyable stuff to paint.
And yet, I still spend an inordinate amount of my time playing PC games and watching UA-cam. 😩
@@01hornsfan me too. I also have 3 resin printers which sit idle waiting for the paint backlog to be done...
Considering getting what I can for massive darkness 2. Wonder if your sentiments carry across?
Im still enjoying bloodborne. I think it captures the video game quite well. I will defend the timer as it keeps the stakes high and helps negate farming. I think its a bit silly to restart the entire campaign but easily ignored.
Interesting how interests change over time. Of this list the only 2 games I'd played before are both games I like. SFB which is a great pick up and play game with an easy to learn hard to master feel to it and Bloodborne, which I backed without even knowing it was an IP. I really enjoy the board game although I will admit I still have one of the expansion boxes in the shrink wrap but I've played through most of the core box thus far and am sure I'll have more plays with it in the future.
Agree on all... EXCEPT for Rising Sun. It's an incredible game and folks are missing out.
I think a lot of it comes down to play group as well
As I said often I find no one willing to challenge Shinto placement and that kind of breaks the game down sadly
I also really liked Bloodborne the BG… but, it didn’t have a great rulebook that needed an errata right away and houserules on top of that I felt it needed too. Good game overall but I had to get rid of my copy as well.
- Where is "Masters of the Universe: Fields of Eternia" ??????
I thought you would add it to your list. Are you still as enthousiastic about this one ?
"MOTU: Battleground" is awesome, but FoE was such a disappointment for so many players... I am genuinely interested on your thoughts about this one as I have it on my shelves but hadn't the chance to play it yet due to it's bad reputation 😔
- I unfortunately agree with "JoA" : juste the same feelings as you. At first, I fell in love with it, then I couldn't bare anymore set up and tear down 😒So I just sold it. What a pity !
- I do enjoy "Super Fantasy Brawl" a lot.
- "Bloodborne the BG" : I still love it ! My main issue with it is the constant respawning thing for monsters. I can pass over it, but it feels less epic to know that each and every monster you slay will spawn again in the exact same spot a few turns later. Other than that, I love it !
I enjoy both MOTU games, but I don't feel I *loved* them so they didn't make the list :)
@@TheKingofAverage Thank you for answering. Actually, when I watched your video for "MOTU: Fields of Eternia" ( ua-cam.com/video/JlbOQI8l1ag/v-deo.html ) you sounded so enthusiastic to me that it really felt that you did LOVE this game, but fine 😉
I wanted to like Bloodborne the board game, but my biggest issue with the game is the timer and rushness of it. I love the video game so much and I just wanted more from it. I ended up selling my all in pledge that I painted. I should have played it before painting it ha.
I have Joan of Arc and like the game but yeah….. hate the set up. It can take an hour to set up. I know that if they were all painted and based that would speed things up but I haven’t painted any of it yet.
I’m thinking of selling Bardsung, trying to sell Trudvang Legends so far no takers.
Don’t own any of the other games you mentioned.
I'm the same with JoA. I think it's the best skirmish game out there but the setup kills it
Agreed on both counts :)
I was shocked by the not-disastrous review you gave to the Street Fighter game. I wonder if the power of the IP clouded your judgement 😂
Hmm it's certainly possible. The game is certainly light and looking back that means it's quite the pricey light game.
I like to think I keep growing as a gamer and a reviewer. Might be interesting to review some of my older reviews haha
So unrelated but i just got the ore order for the new army painter warpaints line and its $759....bout 3.50 a bottle....it hurts lol
Thing about JoA is I’m curious the odds a game that big could be released and the cost it would now be.
Probably twice as much...
Those are all top tier games. But even the good ones get old after a while. Another good video.
As for Zombiced I rather prefer 1st ed with some of the rules mixed in to what ever scenario I wanted to set up. I could never get into 2nd ed and my group says about the same thing. Black Plague is the preferred version my group likes to play. I would have to think of games that I loved but no longer. I think the one that comes to the top of my head is Dead of Winter. I just remember when that first came out I loved to play it but for some reason someone mentions it and everyone just go nay...
Dear Michael, put Street Fighter into the Fundraiser Pool and get rich. Advice is for free!
But the characters are so cool!.....:D
Good discussion!
My list would probably have
Last Night on Earth
Fortune and Glory
Bloodborne
Dominion
Modern Zombicide
Original Arena the Contest
Catan
Mansions of Madness 2E
I wanted to love Zombicide, but I found it too simple, long, and random. Deep Rock Galactic is more what I wished Zombicide was, and it has become my favorite dungeon crawler.
now I'm waiting for the list of 10 that I still love :)
Did you try Ankh instead of rising sun? You can plan it way more, because all information is available. You may like it 😊
Greetings from germany!
I feel ankh you're boxed into the moves that trigger the event or placing that control marker
Now that Monolith owns the Reichbusters IP, I am hoping they can fix all the issues. I still play Descent 2nd Edition; my gaming group and I cannot stand the new FFG Descent and will not touch it even if given to me for free. It obviously does not come out as often as it did, but at least once or twice per year my gaming group gets the itch to play if for no reason to talk about the great gaming sessions we all had with this game. Decent 2nd Edition is never leaving my collection and I believe FFG did it a disservice with the current version of the game.
Joan of Arc is awful. The implementation is awful, the rulebook is terrible. I have taken all the miniatures and purchased a miniature skirmish rulebook and proxy miniatures for the wargame. All the cardboard is stuck in a box never to be seen again. Sadly, because of all the issues and IP fights, it will never be fixed. It was a waste of money and after that game no longer wanted to back future Mythic games products.
After I purchased Zombicide Black Plague and the expansions available at retail, I decided I had enough Zombicide. I no longer want any more Zombicide. We usually take it now around Halloween and play in the fall using the many scenarios CMON released online.
If Joan of Arc dissuaded you from backing Mythic Games, it may have saved you a lot of money in the long run.
Massive Darkness as a whole or just the first edition?
I'll say the first one specifically, but only because I never loved the 2nd one. I just feel like my tastes in the games I want to play have shifted away from that style somewhat so no real love lost by the time 2 came out. I was dumb and bought it all but ended up giving it away.
What’s sad is that I own quite a few on this list- Joan of Arc, Descent, Zombicide, Massive Darkness and Reichbusters. None of them make it to my table much any more, although Massive Darkness’ components work in MD2 with the upgrade kit so still getting use there. I’m selling off my Zombicide stuff ff but the market is not too strong. Joan of Arc setup can be mitigated a little bit if you glue the figs to the bases and then store the base assemblies in an organized fashion and use some Plano boxes for the tokens. But I just found the gameplay to be kind of underwhelming overall, despite how good it looked on the table. Hard to sell that one off too due to the size of the boxes. So probably stuck with JoA for now. Will probably keep Descent for the minis for other games.
Thank u for the video
I don't like Townsfolk Tussle... can't explain why.
Very interesting idea for a video, and well done!
Zombicides was a trailblazer for fun, plastic crack a decade ago, but similarly, other games have come along that are better.
With respect to Bloodborne, I still hold it in high regard because of some simple house rules. However, I'm a whimp and don't like the demon souls series, so I'm a bit detached from the IP.
They way you talk about rising sun sounds like you played a diffrent game. Why would you be blind guessing in rising sun? Your suppose to announce money before bids. I would agree it seems some starting factions are a bit more useful then others. But definitely able to play to your factions strength. but having the right faction helps. Like the faction that can play any tile can always get betray if needed
It's mostly a player group issue both in tracking ronin and in countering or at least fighting for shinto placement.
Zombicide is always the beginning.
Overall ranking on these is more telling
Have you played massive darkness 2? Tom vassel loves that one.
I did but gave it away quickly. While it's plenty fun I think I've moved past that particular style in my gaming tastes more since the first one, the silly art style bothered me a bit at times and I disliked having to remember all the specific rules for various classes.
This list is almost a damnation on crowdfunding ...
Bunch of games with issues that pll originally loved because of the ks overating, delivery hype and buyers' remorse..
Agreed on bloodbourne .. that game is utter garbage .. i have no idea how its rated an 8
Thanks for the great video, I think this is true to everyone in the hobby. As the collection grows and you go out and play more, the things once loved might fade. I love how Townsfolk Tussle made the list, a boss battler where one wrong move or roll can kill you....wait, don't you play KDM? 😉 My same thoughts on Bloodbourne, I'm thinking of working on a map book like Elden Ring, moving along a dedicated map space makes way more sense. I think the timer track needs to be a moon cycle track that the player needs to manipulate as an exploration / boss fight mechanic.
I fell out of love with Nemesis.
I like the game and traitor mechanics, but everyone I play with hate it.
And myself I feel like they don't give you the option to truly mess someone up, like throw a grenade in the room where they are (the only way is if they are together with an alien).
Joan of Arc was my first or second game I had HUGE fomo about that I didnt back.
I am both happy and sad about it.
I want it. But I also want a version thats actually playable.
The gameplay seems neat, and I LOVE the tiny humans vs giant monsters. It just looks so gosh darn cool.
Right? It's frustrating! It'd be less sad if it was a bad game but it's not! Once you can play it that is.
1.5 version is playable.
where is kingdom death in the list?....LOLLLL.....
Loved and sold bloodborne and rising sun too. Just too many flaws from cmon games which don't get play tested enough
🤘🤘
Wow thats a lot of cmon stuff
Haha you see a pattern both in my spending habits and my tastes in games :D
I never liked Rising Sun in the first place. I played it twice and I was bored.
