Quotes (from this video)
- The Windsor girl Crest is sterile as a unit that's had an irreversible vasectomy.
- The aesthetic of the game is complete crap, it's like somebody has mixed up a lot of sick in a cement mixer and just splashed it all over the board.
- We got the uh the larger expansion hoping that that would fix some of the problems and it didn't, it just exacerbated it.
- You constantly have to check for dominance right and this can change at any time during the game.
- I felt like I was sinking through the Earth's crust into the magma and just getting burnt from my toes upwards.
- It's basically top trumps with birds.
- When you've got a market employee that tries to manipulate the consumer and you've got a depthless and toothless game underneath it.
