Quotes (from this video)
  • The sheer quantity of game here is a downside to me.
  • It took over two hours to punch out everything, get organized according to AR's guide.
  • The campaign arcs are like 15 hours.
  • It's a very clever way to bridge that gap between giving players tons of content while making it accessible at the same time.
  • Board games give you that mental satisfaction in a way that video games just don't in my opinion.
  • It's probably my favorite from them with the possible exception of Scoundrels.
  • The general feedback around Lands of Outshade was so excellent that I think it wasn't just me.
  • Even um Shelfside, who generally are very critical of Awaken Realms, uh they they thought it was their best game yet, and I agree with them because it is their best game yet.
  • If you like slaughtering hordes of zombies with tactical decisions, I do think Zombicide's a great game. I'm a big fan of it.
  • I like to own the things I buy.
  • Grim Coven is a mustplay.
  • The harder something is to table, the less likely I am to play it, even if I like it a lot.

Quotes (from this video)
  • The voice over is incredible. The graphics are absolutely amazing.
  • This video game is so hard. It's right on the border of being too hard.
  • Open-world tabletop game that feels literally like Zelda.
  • I don't like exploring in video games, and yet in Vantage I am exploring everything.
  • Andromeda's Edge with Jay from Cardboard East as well and a friend of ours. We got to play a three-player game.
  • This game is way lower in complexity than it should be. It's way more complex than what BG rated it.
