      Felicia, I'll be honest, during the Pairs episode, when I first saw the new backgrounds in the player commentary segments, I was a lil' iffy about it. But now after seeing it in the actual show, I'm more on baord with it. It's something I'll have no problem getting used to. :)

    Quick historical note: Hiroshige, the artist, is based on the real historical character of Utagawa Hiroshige, who painted 53 pieces called the 53 Stations of the Tokaido Road. If you also look at the board for Tokaido, there are exactly 53 spaces.

    At 34:25 when Wil is despairing that the card was worthless to him, that's a rules mistake. According to page 4 of the rules, "If the player has not yet started the depicted panorama, he takes a value 1 card of the appropriate type. If he has started it, he takes the next number in ascending order. If he's completed it, he can start or add to another panorama of his chioce. He scores points for the panorama card as usual." Because Wil drew a guide for the Green Panorama and had already completed that scene, he could have taken the final piece of the Blue Panorama and scored 5 points.

      +Luiz Sarchis I have a questions about the Painter. in the Rule book it says before the meal he takes one point, no where do I see where is says if he doesn't eat he doesn't get to paint. same goes for all the other Char. effects most of them say before the meal. I'm not seeing where it says if you don't eat you dont get your effect.

      @mathchamp93 7 років тому +4

      Yup. He wouldn't have lost quite as badly then.
      Also note that he doesn't get a free painting at Edo, only at the other three inns on the way there, regardless of whether he can afford to eat or not (he does this before looking at the food). Hiroshige's ability does not activate at Edo.

    I bet that if Wil needed a day off, J. August could easily step in as host. I really liked how he broke the fourth wall and brought the viewer to the table. Most of the shows previous felt like the guests forgot that the cameras were rolling. Although that does make a great show, August's interaction with the camera was new and fresh. I really felt like he was there to show case the game as well as have a good time with new and old friends.

    Wil should have been able to grab a panorama of his choice when he drew the Guide encounter card (34:10). The rules state that when you get a guide for an already completed panorama, you can take a panorama card of your choice.

    Tabletop season 3 looks, sounds, and feels so perfect. As phenomenal as seasons one and two are, the third season really blends the magic the show already had and enhances it all so well. I notice all the extra graphics and set decorations along with improved camera work. I always enjoyed the editing and music too. As you thank us for our contributions to the show, I personally thank you all for delivering on all aspects. Really and trully, a great job to everyone. #Tabletop4ever

    I enjoyed the episode. It's good to have new episodes again. I would also like to point out that when Wil drew the "Guide" encounter card that had the panorama he had already completed on it he could have taken the next piece to a different panorama. I don't think it would have changed the outcome much but I just thought you might want to know.
    Thank you for the great show. As a backer I must say it was money well spent.

  • @TJVenture
    @TJVenture 9 років тому +32

    My biggest criticism of the episode is that while the scoring graphics were beautiful, they moved too quickly for me to really be able to soak in. By the time I figured out what some of the graphics were for, it had already moved on the the next scoring thing. It would have only extended the episode by maybe 30 seconds, but would have done a lot to make it more digestible for us.

    Oh no! A rules mistake cost Wil some points. At 34:06, the Annaibito card Wil draws allows him to take a green panorama, OR if he has finished that panorama, he can add to another panorama. It wasn't worthless (unless I'm mistaken and Wil had already finished all three).

    • @abrannan

      He hadn't finished the ocean, and if he could have afforded the food at the end, he would have finished all three paintings. Which would have made the screwage by J. & Jason impossible. It would have changed the entire outcome of the game.

    Since I literally just ran this game at a convention yesterday, I did notice two errors in this video:
    1) The first time they show the priest's ability in a caption, they show the artist's ability instead.
    2) Wil was not as screwed as he thought. Any time you draw a guide for a painting you have already completed, you can go for another painting. So he should have still earned 4 points for that guide.
    I forget if he gets a painting on the last inn or just on the middle three, so I don't know if he would have finished it at the end.

    I think the best part of this video was when Wil was in the room talking, and J. just came up behind him and started doing things with his arms. I like the new style, listening to the people talking about what they did is interesting to know about their strategy. I also like the transitions in this episode, showing the gameboard at the end of every day was a great idea.

  • @mrbriman101
    @mrbriman101 9 років тому +1

    Mistake @ 34:20. According to the rule book: "Annaibito (Guide): ...If he's completed [the panorama], he can start or add to another panorama (they keep calling them "paintings" in this episode) of his choice. He scores points for the Panorama card as usual." So, while he did draw a field panorama card, he could have used it to finish his ocean scene early and scored accordingly.

      I was about to say this, thinking maybe the rules was changed between the original came and newer version when the expansions came out?
      But this comment is 4 years old, so I guess not. The game is very forgiving in a way.
      You can't go to places on the board for that panorama, but when dealt it from the visitors you get a free pick if complete. Sad they missed that.

      Anyway, if you don't know about him, it means you don't watch Whedon's shows, which means GO FREAKING WATCH WHEDON'S SHOWS RIGHT NOW! Like he said, he's been in Angel (which is kinda old, but still awesome) and he's been in the first season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., but hasn't appeared in season 2 yet. (Hopefully he comes back, his character is awesome. Then again, the way he left was kind of a perfect leaving, so who knows?)

      He's just like his character in Angel, to be honest. He's sassy and quick-witted and just a fun, easy guy. If you're into Sci-Fi, check it out. You don't need to watch Buffy to watch Angel (but of course, it's always preferred).

  • @webcutter82
    @webcutter82 9 років тому +4

    I'm not sure how much of a difference it would have made on the final score, but I am almost 100% sure that if you draw a traveller card that gives you a panorama which you've already completed, you get to take one card of your choice from the remaining panorama sets. It would have bumped Wil up into the low 70's and maybe have created more point opportunities.

    I know this is old but Wil got a rule wrong (surprise) and should have had another painting card. If you get the guide friend and you've already completed the panorama, you can add to any other panorama of your choice or start a new one. He'd be 4 points higher.

    @luizgustavocristino6172 9 років тому +4

    AMAZING episode, as always, guys. Season 3 started with so much style! Edit was already great, and have improved even further! Congrats everyone, on and off-camera!
    I've got a few sugestions if the editing is still happening with the rest of the season. I'm such a huge fan of the show, and I hope that you guys read them and take them into account (unless you think I don't make any sense, of course, but I hope it's not the case... lol).
    1. The idea of making depositions with the respective player color for each person was good, but I miss the comfortable feeling of the "Wil's house" background. That made the show feel more natural, less "studioed", you know?
    2. Loved the new score clips, so attached to the game art and style. It helps us to be more immerse in the game. But I have to suggest you guys to slow down the video so we can keep track of the scores. I had to keep pausing it in order to understand everything.
    3. Please, PLEASE, don't listen to the moralist conservative douchebags who complain about everything from standing for gay rights (which is an awesome cause to stand for everywhere, including videos like this... homophobia is a serious problem among gamers!), bad words (LOVED the bad words, laughed a lot, keep them coming) all the way to the complaints about Wil being picked on. Wil, I love you, man, but it's god damn fun to see your guests ganging up on you! I often have the same "problem" when I play and it always ends in good laughs. So, I feel for ya, but I hope the next guests keep trying to help each other f*ck you ass frequently. LOL
    CONGRATS FOR THE AMAZING WORK! GOD I MISSED THIS SHOW!

    A tattoo sleeve on Wil Wheaton is like a pair of Nike Airs under an Armani suit, especially seated next to a clean hockey player twice the size. But then, all ink looks like a disease to me, blue is gangrenous, yellow is malaria, red is inflamed.
    Still a fascinating boardgame that I didn't know about, despite the inappropriate rolled up sleeves. My thanks for introducing me to Tokaido. A very tactical game.
