Quotes (from this video)

• As you can see, maybe at the beginning, the monthly menu thumbnail has changed. And I'm going to talk a little bit about why that had to happen at the end of this video. So, stay tuned.
• This is a programming game. A little bit of a deck build. It's not really accurate because there's only a few cards you have, but a little bit of a deck builder, a little bit of area control, and asymmetric factions. Very, very unique game. Very clever, clever game that I'm very happy that I've been getting a chance to play.
• Really, really had a good time. Next was Vantage, which was one from Stonemire Games. It was a little bit of an advanced copy. And yes, I did get it. Yes, I got to play it. Yes, I put out a review on it. Really liked it. Really, really, really enjoyed Vantage. Just really a lot of fun. Especially for me. Might not be for everybody, but it is for me.
• So, it just missed out on making my top five games of the month. So, just a really cool game. Really enjoy it and I really want to get it back to the table soon.
• This is a game that is at the edge of weight for games that I like, and I really enjoyed it.
• I've really had a good time with this game. I think it's just delightful. It's beautiful. It's got a lot of stuff going on.
• This is a wonderful, wonderful tile laying game with amazing art. It just looks pretty as you look at it, but if you dig in, there's all these Easter eggs hidden in there of Star Wars and 2001 and all kinds of stuff just kind of hidden in there. Stunningly beautiful, easy to play and just a lot of fun.
• After the first few plays, I still wasn't sure what I thought because the first couple of games that we played, a lot of it was kind of learning stuff and feeling things out and trying to understand how things worked. And I just wasn't sure if it was clicking with me. Well, having come back to it a lot, it did click with me and I'm really, really enjoying it.
• It has a very cool combat system that when it is combined with the way the app works, well, it's a website cuz it's not an app. It's really good.
• It has a really cool magic system that's so simple, but it just makes so much sense. The way you can level up your characters and kind of do anything you want with them is really really satisfying.
• This is a cyberpunk adventure game that is a lot of dice placement and some very cool kind of story elements that you're dealing with.
• It all fits in the box, which makes me very happy.
• This is a fantasy cartoonish, which I'm all about. Boss battler with epic character creation. Another game you can just do whatever you want with your characters. Very, very clever the way that works.
• It's a Euro game. It's decently reviewed and so we decided we're gonna do it that weekend.
• My laptop is no more. It is gone. And with that, I lost not a ton of stuff I can't get back, but some of the thumbnails I can't get back.
• It made it far less painful and it would have been far harder for me to absorb that hit without the channel members and the subscribers and the YouTube ads.
