    Hi Janet and Doug! Your grandson is doing a fantastic job and he's entertained thousands with his wonderful videos.

    Janet and Doug. Save your grand spawn from Matt and Quinns. Or retire him so he no longer needs to eat.

    I don't know why hearing about Janet and Doug brought me such joy but I am glad it did. Your Grandson is great and an excellent reviewer!! Influencing us all the way over here in Australia

    I love how future tom couldn't tell past tom whether iki 2 was any good for paradox reasons, but had no qualms telling him exactly how matt died immediately afterward

    • @blairox6031
      @blairox6031 Рік тому +37

      The paradox is that telling the audience that iki 2 is far superior to the original game would lead us to wait for its release instead of buying iki, which would lead to the bankrupcy of the editor, and because of this, iki 2 would never exist. Problem is: telling us there is a paradox is enough for us to deduce its nature, which is why I won't buy iki, thus risking to tear the fabric of time

      The rules of future paradox NDAs are complicated, but very narrowly focused.

    Fine I guess I'll take a break of watching algorithmically recommended sumo documentaries to watch Tom walk me through another fever dream of a board game review

      @hudeduge9240 Рік тому +10

      Hey, I like Tom and Ava too but Im getting kinda tired of the post covid SUSD crouch at the table formula. I want more outside stuff. More team interaction. More paint bombs in pans!

    The future is indeed bad, but at least it contains more excellent SU&SD video reviews to look forward to.
    Ike definitely immediately fell into the I should get this for friends who will appreciate the theme as well as the game!

    3:13 You can tell Tom really wanted to end another sentence with "in spades" but then remembered he does that too much (or I'm reading into this far too much and it really is as simple as it seems which is the message of Iki and this video and DAMMIT I DID IT AGAIN).

    This is definitely a unique game, and while I enjoyed my play of it, I let it go. My wife, and a friend of ours, did not enjoy the game. Resources were too tight to come by, and there was only a few turns you could do something to try and gain points. The rest of your turns were spent moving up the fire track or gaining food to feed your merchants. It felt like stuff I had to do, and not stuff I wanted to do.
