    I thought Oathsworn had a very approachable length to it. It helps that the game is super smooth. I think it comes down to how good the story is and how engaging the mechanics are. Gloomhaven could have been a bit shorter. Aeon Trespass: Odyssey cycles felt just right but I wouldnt want every game to be that long. Bloodborne is great because you can sit down and complete a entire campaign in 1 to 2 sessions. In general I feel Oathsworn nailed it perfectly.

    I am really not in the market to crowdfund a major campaign game. But it does have enough factors to make me pay attention. That die mechanic where the more dice you throw, the better chance of Bad Things happening reminds me of the Cortex+ RPG that enjoyed so much in the Firefly RPG. And a smaller footprint, big attention getter for me. And sin cards? As Captain Mal said, "I'm a fan of all Seven."

    I also like the escalations in death may die.
    Perhaps most importantly, make each battle different and strategically different

    Since my group plays every week something like Oathsworne which is 60 hours (took us around 70 hours) felt really short for a campaign game. On the other hand all of Gloomhaven felt extremely long, it was around 160hours for Core game with all doable side quests. So for my group something like 100hrs is actually the sweat spot. However I also think its more on how they games are, Oathsworne flowed very well together that it felt faster, were Gloomhaven had those moments were your taken out of the game.

  • @Magnoliafan13
    @Magnoliafan13 7 місяців тому

    I got Drunagor and it has a lot of reference mistakes (like if you got x go to y, but it should actually be z in stead). And with a lot I mean way WAY to many, which only become worse that it is a second printing.
    It sounds like Dantes scope is 10 times as big in that regard, so that make me quite concerned.

      I am talking about the scope of narrative pathways.
      Drunagor was really linear, where Dante sounds like every decision you make, will change the path.
      So yes, it makes me concerned, when they made that amount of mistakes in a linear game.

      I'm super curious about this one and im a sucker for crazy ideas and scope, but man did Drunagor feel more like a chore than anything. I loved the action cubes, i loved the trays and levels, but the rules holding everything together needed some serious workshopping. The darkness spawning mechanic was so bad (by the end of most scenarios everywhere would be darkness and it was somehow super fiddly to get there) i sold it after the second side expansion.
      Great guys though. I hope this one turns out to be great.

      Narrative games take ~2+ years. Boss Battler focused games take ~1.5-4+ years. The gear, fights, and narration is some of the heavy scope creep/ balancing you can get in a board game. They've been working on this game for at least one year from what I remember. So I would say the core gameplay loop is fleshed out.
      Having a day 1 rule book for a boss battler is a weird stipulation. I would be shocked if this is ready. Many rules and tweaks come up through extensive testing. Not to mention the streamlining rulebook design for readability use and art is a many step process.

    • @SamBalducci
      @SamBalducci 7 місяців тому +1

      @@rivinOX So are we funding a game or an abstract idea? You do need a complete rulebook with full layout and images but enough that you could mock a game using chits. We should be funding games that are 80% complete and the year is for tweaking and manufacturing.

      ​​@@SamBalducciyou are talking about more of a preorder system and for a different kind of boardgame. These 'grand' narrative/boss battler/dungeon delves are not typical boardgames. They are more on par with adventure /rpg Videogames. They need funding to put money into developing and testing the game. They are no where near done at launch, not even 30% done. The assets and core game play loop are usually finished, but the chapters, art, chapter gear, boss battle tuning still need revisions and design. These games don't get rule books till much further in. Instead they get tutorial play throughs which is what you will see UA-cam board reviewers/ product testers demonstrate.
