      Imlressive or Just too much.. Not Sure i would actually want to Play IT multiple times.
      Maybe only with two Players but more? Not everyone has enough space for that

    I'm very surprised everyone seems to prefer this over Newton. Newton seems like a much more streamlined version of this.

    37.35 you have klingon subtitles that i think are incorrect, you gave completed the objective ( 2 blue reasearch tokens and be ahead of the beagle)

    It looks really interesting. Visually I find it a little overwhelming, tbh. Not unattractive, but I find it hard to focus on what's going on. Must be my ADHD brain, lol.

    Also Rahdo, how do you head cannon the theme here? I find it tricky that players are collectively recalling and playing through his memories. Is each player a part of his psyche. Are we collectively playing Darwin? Does the end-of-round point loss if we are not close to the Beagle represent we were out of touch with a certain memory?
    It is a strange one, or perhaps I am overthinking it? You are a top themer, how do you read it?

    • @rahdo
      @rahdo  3 года назад +3

      yeah, i'm not a big fan of the "reliving memories" thing. i like to think of it as each of us as a follow-up scientific vessel following in his footsteps doing further research inspired by the journey, but we're held to the standard of the beagle by our financiers :)

    • @Garcian

      @@rahdo That's a great take on it. Certainly helps me to resolve the game's actions.
      As an aside, I wish publishers would put more thought into a game's 'narrative of play' and how mechanics can fold into and support a theme.
      Even games which don't seem thematic at first glance actually can be when you think about the card effects, resources and mechanics as referential to the theme.
      Something like Lorenzo Il Magnifico may be criticised as just another soulless Euro but all of the cards in the game actually make sense as a dynamic relationship between mechanics and theme.
      Building a cathedral requires lots of brick and some wood. Grants Faith points.
      Receive Foreign Support. Gain lots of servants. It just makes sense.

      sorry to say i wasn't planning on doing anything (I also don't celebrate birthdays). but jen and i will be doing a live playthrough next week (live.rahdo.com) so we'll probably high five about it then :)

    Hey Rahdo, I came across this board game playthrough-er (ruclips.net/video/xTWFuiEz-Dc/видео.html&feature=emb_title) and thought that his handheld interjections reminded me a lot of your old-school, organic style. I earnestly wondered if you have/would/could consider this sort of device when zooming to view certain aspects during play?
    I know some fans miss the (perhaps) more atmospheric eye-view of your channel of yolde and this sort of implementation, I feel would work well as part of your current set up.
    I know your channel is going from strength to strength in terms of business and quantitive numbers but I do miss the original house style. As for qualitative feedback, I find a lot less value in your videos and never get through them as much as I used to. Perhaps this is a good thing as I am persuaded less and less to pull the trigger :)

      thanks for sharing that, i really like his style! tbh though, i can imgagine how much extra work that would be in editing, and i don't have the stamina for it!

    I love this theme, but I'm hesitating because the set up looks so cluttered. Component love is battling with component overwhelm and messiness....

    So sick of seeing the 'Includes paid promotion' disclaimer. Clearly publishers know who needs to be bought to ensure their game's success. Patreon or being paid by publishers...make a choice.

      sorry you're not capable of ignoring the subjective opinion (since you seem to think i'm a liar) and that you can't use the objective gameplay demonstration to draw your own conclusions. shame really.
