    I'm a psychologist. Keeping an incorrect label is the difference between object relations and language. In your mind, you don't need to know how to say a label, it's just understood. The label works. This is why it is possible to read an entire novel and never learn the character names.

      Oh wow, that explains how as a kid I read Harry Potter and had no idea what Hermione's name was (this was before the movies existed). Her name was so bizarre and unknown my brain just skipped over it. I think subconsciously I remembered her as "H girl" or something like that, but it wasn't important when I was reading. Only afterwards when talking to others about the book I realized I had no idea what her name was.

    Not a Psychologist, but I've studied education. The reason it's hard to "unlearn" something that's wrong is because the first thing in your brain (in your case Feast of Odin) gets connected to neurons that associate is as correct. Anything that doesn't agree with that first idea gets connected with an error neuron. When you hear the new information, it triggers the error neuron and the connection grows stronger. It can be very difficult to break that connection and associate the correct information with neurons that "label" it as such.
    I realize this was just a throwaway line from the opener, but I felt like showing off my knowledge.

    • @keitheiler8545
      @keitheiler8545 7 лет назад +15

      I've read (from a less technical perspective) that when you remember something, you overwrite your previous remembrance of it. This is how false memories develop. It's also why you should immediately look things up when you can't remember them. Otherwise, your memory will be of not being able to remember and you'll have a tougher time getting to the root knowledge.

    The "the viking age podcast" suggests that a major reason for raiding is that it was a way to move up socially. They had the technology to modify the gold and silver items they stole, but many survived intact because they were intentionally not modified so that they could be used as proof that they were brought back, rather than made.

  • @statingbusiness
    @statingbusiness 7 лет назад +10

    feast OF odin is easier to say from a phonological point of view. the language generally tries to avoid consonant clusters. that's why our articulators (tongue, teeth, lips) naturally gravitate towards a more simple variant. feaSTFodin vs feaSToFOdin. Especially in this case where the difference in meaning between Of and For variants is irrelevant.

    Lovely review, but you just flew right past the career (I think that's what they are called) cards. These cards have a rule book unto themselves and should DRASTICALLY change how you approach each session. Without them, the game would indeed fall into some set strategies. With them, you will need to change on the fly to optimize each little worker. A very enjoyable game. I eagerly await the reprint.

    • @jonofpdx
      @jonofpdx 7 лет назад +2

      Interesting. So you would say this has a lot more variability than, say, Caverna?
      How does the variability compare to Agroicola?
      I prefer Caverna generally 'cause it's just so much easier to get people to play but the lack of variable setup really does hurt that game. We've been trying out some house rules to fix that but I'm always interested in a new Uwe big box game.

    Agricola was one of the games that really got me into modern gaming as well. I hear what you're saying about there being more or less "set paths" to victory, but I think that increases the players bumping into each other a bit. There is nothing quite like the look on someone's face when they realize you just took the reed they needed to upgrade their home on the last turn. Sooo gooood!
    I enjoyed the review, and look forward to playing the game when I get a chance too. However, I could do without all the "fluff." I found it distracting, and honestly, I believe it detracts from the rest of the review. Thanks for the effort though, you guys have been doing great work for a long time!
