    I can't express how amazing this is, the moments you were able to capture will always be near and dear to my heart. I know I will be rewatching this video for a long time to come.

    Was a great event!
    @The Illumiteers, thanx for getting my still in there. I was the one with the black leg.
    Hope you had time to enjoy yourself at GENCON as well. More than just making content I mean.
    Have a good one!

      Thanks so much for the still and for the compliment.
      I did have a great time at GenCon! I mean, content creation is fun in and of itself. It gives me an excuse to talk to and meet people I otherwise wouldn’t have.
      But I also took time to experience events independent of Lorcana. D&D, seminars, the costume contest…it was a blast. Overall, I wouldn’t change a thing! (Well…maybe more Kole autographs. I didn’t get all 10 cards signed…)
      Can’t wait to go back!

    Amazing coverage of GenCon thanks for interviewing My brother and I at the end. Once I got home and slept for a while My daughters and I opened our packs and 18 hour wait was well worth it 🎉

      You all were amazing! One of my favorite moments of GenCon. I was not expecting the 4pm answer and did that double take 😆
      Thanks for sharing your experience with me.
      You all definitely earned those cards!

    Love that you open interviewing a clear scalper. ;) good for her waiting 6+ hours for cards.

      Haha, it took me a second to realize you were being sarcastic! Soleil was so fun to hang out with in line. She and her family had an awesome weekend.
      By the way...have we sent/given you a sticker yet? You SO need one!

    Great video but that looked so dangerous when all if the crowd got pushed together like that. i attended the Disney Store London Lorcana launch last week and just waited over an hour before they started selling Lorcana. Was pleased that I didnt have to wait that 10 hour wait like some of you guys did

    • @Illumiteers
      @Illumiteers  Год назад +1

      It was very dangerous. I’m very surprised no one was seriously injured…

      Indeed!!! One of my favorite people!
      Thanks for watching! 😊 it was tough putting together HOURS of footage into something even a little cohesive. Hope we pulled it off!

    Great storytelling. I am not interested in the game, but I was definitely aware of the lines and crowds. I didn't know about a lot of the details you shared.

    • @Illumiteers
      @Illumiteers  Год назад

      Thanks so much for watching! We do love telling the story of the game as much as breaking news about the game itself. We did our best to capture the feel of the weekend regarding Lorcana.

    Lorcana “Illumineers” that went to Gencon after the Big Three squeeze Lorcana from the market because of Ravenburger product shortage issues: 😐

      @Illumiteers  Год назад

      Oh, thank you so much. It took us quite a while to find a script we liked…but I think, in the end, we captured a bit of the feeling of being there.
      Thanks for watching! Oh, and subscribed! We love board game reviews!

    Great stuff Liam! Watching this brings back fond memories of week-ends at Gencon. Sounds like Lorcana was the star of the show. We'll see how it fairs with the most important test...the test of time. For the life of me, I just don't understand Ravensburger decision to release the game at the end of summer. Middle of summer seems like the more wise choice since everyone is already on their way back to school. It's like a Haunted Mansion movie being released in August instead of October!!?? Who makes these decisions, lol.

    • @Illumiteers
      @Illumiteers  Год назад +1

      Thanks so much for watching! And I know the feeling - editing this let me relive the convention over and over as I looked through footage, etc.
      And I’ve never thought of the fact that the release date coincides with the end of the summer. You’re right…interesting move.
