Quotes (from this video)
- Machina Arcana is in my top ten, an absolutely fantastic board game.
- I am intimidated because all I've heard is just how hard and difficult the game is.
- DCC RPG is not a good sword and sorcery game.
- The idea of starting out weak and progressing to like god-like status in sword and sorcery fiction is the direct opposite of how many games treat progression.
