    This was a lot of fun to watch, especially when Tom tried to guess the games and was right every time. Shows how much they know each behind the scenes 🎲☝🏽😁

    I would have died if Tom had said, “We are now accepting applications to the Dice Tower.” 😉 Great tongue in cheek reaction vid! Knowing everyone’s personalities made it even funnier. 🙌🏼

    I caught the original live stream of Mike, Roy, & Zee doing this and was pretty amused but just couldn't wait to see Tom react to it. I missed THIS live stream but just now watched it all the way through and it was everything I hoped it would be. Tears in my eyes from laughing. This was solid gold. Thank you Tom, Mike, Roy, and Zee.

  • @saveversus

    I can't imagine another react video unless they start doing an "X is wrong" series, but if you do I'd suggest lowering the volume of the original video so it isn't confusing when you talk over it. Aside from that, I liked the pauses and fast forwards to get to your points.

    • @FranciscoPerez-cr4os
      @FranciscoPerez-cr4os 3 роки тому +2

      I like the volume leveling, personally. I don’t think I’d be able to hear it enough otherwise. This makes me feel like I’m watching one complete video rather than just Tom’s video

    • @saveversus
      @saveversus 3 роки тому +3

      If they do keep this format, then I'd prefer a lot more pausing so Tom, or whomever is doing the reaction, can get his or her point across with have to talk over the video. There were parts where Tom was objecting and I have no idea what anyone said.
      I'd also prefer a "scripted" reaction rather than a hot take; like Tom watches the video beforehand so he can prepare his rejections and argue his point rather than just saying, "No. Don't agree. That's wrong."

      The thing that annoys me with the argument, is that the gif creator is the one who started it. That argument did not exist, and one day they decided "I'm annoyed that no one uses the witty name I came up with" and did the biggest 'I need to correct everyone on the internet' ever. If you wanted people to call it jiff, then make the extension .jif; I can't make a product called a hat, and then get upset when no one pronounces it "hot".

    I commented on the previous video that it felt like Roy may have only played the first edition of Sentinels, before they introduced damage scaling with the number of heroes. If the villains are dealing a flat amount of damage instead of it being based on the number of heroes, I can see it feeling best with a specific number of heroes.

    Tom, I gotta say that I really like Mysterium overall and it looks Fantastic on the table ... but I have a friend who refuses to play it because he says that it’s dumb because the first 3/4 of the the game is irrelevantly building up to an endgame guess of the final choice. He points out that the theme doesn’t hold up since all but one clairvoyant interpretations are correct and therefore the others must be charlatans because of their permissions were of wrong people using wrong things in wrong places. You know... I still like this game, but he has a point. 🤷‍♂️

    Sentinels is: do what it says on the card; forget that a dozen+ counters and effects change what the card does; go back two or three turns to correct the oversight until you finally just give up and say good enough; repeat. It's fluxx's rule jockeying tedium, but without being tongue-in-cheek about it.

    This was a lot of fun, and I appreciate the dry humor of Tom playing the belligerent boss who doesn't want to deal with his underlings. The fact that some thought Tom was actually upset at points shows that it landed right, I think. Especially in the end when Tom basically laughs and says "nah, it's great we have different opinions, this was just some fun."
    It might have felt a bit more awkward if he roleplayed the upset was all the way through.

But I wasn’t going to make a fuss over it, except now with Tom’s reaction I am. But I still agree with the who cares sentiment. Kudos to Roy for making an animated gif, it’s definitely ‘G’if tho.

    I guess Roy’s never gone to a library recently. Sure most of us cant afford every new big game that comes out. I certainly can’t. But there’s no point in complaining about it. I enjoy what I can afford even if that means I miss most of the games that come out. However the library near me has a couple 100 tabletop games. And they get a few new ones every couple months. I’ve gotten terraforming mars, planet, photosynthesis, above and below, and whole lot more from the library. They even just added cryptid and reykholt to the library. I’ve played a lot of games from the library and that has helped me choose which games I wanted to buy. Terraforming mars is my second favorite game after Everdell and I also bought above and below. This way I don’t waste money on games I might not like. So there are alternative ways to play big expensive games. As for small games I do enjoy them too. I love nature fluxx and dale of merchants.
