awesome. i like your calm and peaceful voice.
Perfectly explained as always.
You are a good teacher.
Thank you sir!
Just received my game. The artwork is fantastic and this video is very helpful. Looking forward to trying out the Ghosts of Eldervale solo play today / tomorrow.
Great video. Backed this and look forward to playing it. Been watching the production videos by the publisher and the quality is great, tons of content.
Wow Jon once again just brilliant! This is really how you teach a game. Often players says when they sit down to a new game "That's enough of the rules, let's play around and see how it goes", and that's kind of what you do. Fun! I've watched a couple of other 'how to play' dwellings of everydale videos but stop midway through, scratching my head because I get confused as the host of the video draws way too much attention to themselves by injecting personality and flavor into the instruction; which can be entertaining but can also be very distracting as I'm trying to tuck all these rules in my head and get a sense of whether or not this is a game for me. Anyway, thank you so much for doing what you do !
Awesome to hear my style worked so well for you, thanks for the kind words!
Thanks for the gameplay video. The game look really interesting and unique and I think I'll be backing it.
Thanks for the video. My friends and I will be playing it on the next couple days
Superb video, so good at teaching the game.
Great video to get me started on this game!
Incredible video. Thank you!
Excellent explanation, thanks a lot!
ATTENTION: There has been a rule change between this prototype and the final version of the game. Each dwelling now lets a player score up to 3 cards of any elemental type once the game is over. This means if you have 1 dwelling and 4 cards then you'll only score 3 of those cards.
Thanks for the update Jon, has there been any other rules changes that you noticed since then? Love your tutorial and turn by turn explainations!
@@Renzuo77 No other changes have been pointed out to me.
@@JonGetsGames noted with thanks!
Amazing explaination! Helped me out a lot (I still lost 😂)
Thanks for the quality work! 👌
This game looks fantastic
I'm so excited to try this. Got the copy today. I'm hoping for a game of it tonight or tomorrow. Or both.
Thank you, very helpful.
Great video thank you!
I must say I'm always a sucker for an epic fantasy type of setting in a game. In addition I also enjoy it when worker placement games actually give you different types of workers with unique abilities, makes it feel like you're running an actual faction where different members have different specialties. Speaking of specialties, asymmetry is something I always find a nice touch in games and wish more of them would do. It gives players more to think about in how to maximize their abilities while minimizing their opponent's advantages.
I agree about being a sucker for this type of game with asymmetries and unique abilities. Honestly I quite enjoyed playing this too, I just generally try to keep my opinion out of the actual video since this was sponsored content :)
Doing an excellent job Jon.
I love that you can tell how old the video is by how short Jon's hair is 😁
Finally got my game in the mail today! Now if only I had anyone to play with :(
How donu even play this bro. How can u even understand lol
Feels like a combo of Lord's of Waterdeep and Heroes of Land, air and sea.
The reason why I backed it
good video, yeah had my first ghosts run yesterday and i am pretty sure i got the rules right... but the way the game ended was a little weird / unexpected
like i didn't use any magic cards at all, i think i really only revealed one realm and got an adventure card, just seemed a little weird that you can play it completely through but barely use any of the mechanics in the game
i did lose though but only by 15 points against the ghost, my run through was just a bit of a sprint between us to smash out the dwellings and the game was over pretty quickly
Good Stuff!
Thanks I will come ask for request for video games that I would understand because you give verry clear words.
I've never actually covered video games on this channel, these days I don't really play them anymore.
This looks awesome! Involved and probably more geared towards serious board game enthusiasts, but I'm totally down.
Also at 12:02 you spittle a little on the bottom of the board when you say "certainly".
Subscribing to your channel because of this video, you really do get games! Keep it up.
until you roll 1s and fail turn upon turn. Tell me all about it later.
Is this retail edition? I’m trying to find a video of what it looks like but no one has posted a retail unboxing.
No, I mentioned at the start of the video that this uses a prototype version of the game.
@33:15 why would the player put the treasure tile on the recall spot instead of just discarding it to get the 2 tools and then activating the recall spot to also get a gem? This only seems useful if the player currently has too many treasure tiles and too many tools and cannot discard it for the resources immediately.
I think I found it. It looks like when you slot a tile it stays in the slot until you decide to replace it.
Just a note I swear the rules say the actions on the cards happens first then battles your explanation at 21:00 makes it sound like the battle would happen first. The only reason I remember this is because it is so unusual.
I didn't mean to intone that, you do the action first for sure.
seemed nice. But still no games to be sold in my area. Guess gonna wait another years or so !
Will this be updated now the game is released?
At this point I haven't heard anything from the publisher. Have there been rules changes that you know of?
@@JonGetsGames they aren't much rule changes. Just some additional rules due to the additional modules added in.
i like you! but please can you try to slow down a little bit. For foraigners like myself would be mush apreciated.
I do try, believe it or not this is me talking much slower than I do in real life. Sorry it's been an issue, it's something I'm continuing to work on.
Thanks for the great video as usual Jon, it really helped to not back this game. In fact I have no idea where is all the hype coming from, probably the miniatures as is often the case. Cheers!
Sofoklis Kapriniotis what are ur specific reasons not to back If I may ask ?
The game may not be for you, but I'm not sure where your negativity is coming from. The mini's are honestly the least interesting, and least impactful part of the game. Many have played it and loved it, just like the designer's previous game, Energy Empire.
For me, this game has everything I love in it. An interesting take on Worker Placement where engine building is built into their roles and the tableau you develop. Competition for score tracks, potential to interact on locations. Having to plan ahead to reach locations. Acquiring resources on the map, hand management. To me it feels like this game has it all.
Exactly, this game has it all. A little of everything, nothing to actually make me want to play it.
Imho it tries too much to be everything and fails in almost every aspect. It has generic workers, and asymmetric powers, it has Dragons, because, well, it is Dragons, even for the rat people. It has gimmicky meeples that stay on top of the workers, it has gametrayz for very few items per player, it has a spell board, now where have I seen that before? and the list goes on.
I am sure it will do great in the campaign, it is beautiful and the designer is obviously well liked from what I understand. And this is probably why my comments seem like an attack to a wonderful game, but honestly it's just me.
@@S.Kapriniotis Fair enough, I get some of your points. Personally I love and appreciate Game Trayz, even if they're not as necessary. There's a fair amount of setup here, The trays will help with that. The roofs on top of meeples do seem a bit silly looking, but I can see why they chose to do it, it takes up a worker so I'm sure it was a functional choice. Not sure what the issue with the spell board is, moving up tracks is in many games.
For me, none of those things are what sold the game for me, in some cases they're a bit of icing on a cake. I do admit it seems overproduced. I would have been fine with meeple monsters, and less stuff in a smaller box for less money. To me, the game looks absolutely fun. It's a lot of Euro elements but framed around a more Dudes on a Map style area control mechanic where you're battling to attain locations. I think it's a really clever blend. I like that you can specialize in different strategies for both points and just dominating the board. Didn't see it quite as much in this video series, but in the Man vs Meeple one off, and from what I could watch of the Dice Tower, some people make use of their asymmetric workers, some find fun combos with cards allowing them to manipulate monsters to dominate the board, some use their faction abilities more to find ways to churn points.
There's lots of point combos to be found, varied board setups, 16 unique races to play as, you really have to consider the other players with every action you take, I dig all of that. I'm pretty sure the game will be a hit for me. It is lighter than I first thought, and there's dice rolling combat, so I can see why it would turn off a lot of people. I'm excited though.
Same for me. Not really into dice combat anymore. Will probably look again at retail release, but have other things to spend this year’s money on.
Solid video. Game looks well produced, just doesn't look like anything special. I can see why people are excited for it, but it seems a bit light for my tastes.
It does seem lighter than I first thought. More fine for me as I prefer medium weight Euros. The player interaction is what really sells it for me and makes it special. Competition for spaces for abilities, combat to get up the war track, race to get up the magic tracks, even competition in how spell cards are discarded. It seems like fun to me, but yeah, not for everyone.
Seems like vindicated
Although your tutorials are interesting, I always find myself slowing your videos down to 0.75x speed. You really should slow down your speech speed.
You aren't the first to mention this, and I have been actively trying to do this over the years. My natural speech speed is quicker than you see here so it's a constant battle for me, unfortunately. Sorry this has been an issue for you.
@@JonGetsGames Don't be sorry, it's my problem if my brain doesn't go as fast as your speech :) Maybe with practice, it will be easier to understand fast speeches
one trick is to watch the video at 1.25 or 1.5 speed in the 1 /2 minutes, then slow it down to normal speed, then you can trick your mind and find his speed much slower. XD
Actually I watch your videos because of your speech speed! Others are way too slow. I have the same problem so I guess I relate lol
I feel sorry for you that you had to learn all this mess, it's so incredibly bloated and needs a developer to make this more lean and enable actual strategic depth. Looks beautiful, but ugh :D
My gaming group felt the same way about "Rise of Tribes", one of Breaking Games previous releases. The ideas are solid, but we all wanted it to be more where it wasn't and less where it was (if that makes any sense lol). Developers are crucial now. You need someone who says, "This isn't good enough, try again," over and over.
Yeah, seems like a bloated mess of mechanisms.
I think It’s great for me-The only thing that’s a bit unnecessary is the sound effect thingies.
I dislike games that are too “streamlined”-excessive bloat to me means additional content, often stretch goals, that add lots of miniatures and such that ultimately don’t add much to gameplay. This to me looks like a game that has all the expansions built right in. Instead of starting with a more basic worker placement and coming out with endless expansions to fix the original design.
I respect your opinion and I’m totally glad their is a diversity of tastes out there, but sometimes “Tighter” games end up having the same openings or, especially in coops, feel more like a puzzle than a game.
I’m not saying I dislike some streamlined games, I own plenty, but I can totally see how the marketing of this game made it seem more streamlined by saying a player has ‘only 2 choices: put out a worker or pull them all back’. well, there’s a lot more ‘unofficial turn actions’.
Out of curiosity, if you were in the mood for a worker placement of this nature (not necessarily the same theme), what would you suggest our hypothetical group play instead? There’s no wrong answers, just preferences.
Also great job explaining the game-I like your cadence and calm delivery as you explain this rather detail game thoroughly. Although I know everyone wants a faster video, I appreciate you didn’t skip much, but instead offered watchers timestamped buttons to skip ahead to the relevant part of the game they may be trying to get more detail on.
Cheers to all!
Seems way too busy. Cancelled my pledge after watching this.
You gotta be shittin me. US$99+snh for this game?? Ridiculous.
ok. It is just another eurogame, but of course everything depends on the cards and combos therein. And there should be an AI. It will be successful, pretty sure of that.
Actually I would prefer thse disks of dragons, to the smelly PVC miniatures in the ks.
Combat on 36:36 is very old fashioned, roll to hit.
Me : Wow pretty nice art, seems really cool, unique >> Oh there is dice ? Again ? omg may be dice has no really impact. >>>> In combat roll dice the highest value wins. Incredible how creative they are to build a so big game, tiles, rules but they always struggle to find anything else than dice to manage combat. EXHAUSTING >>> Another dice combat game i pass sadly
