Quotes (from this video)
- My number one in this video, meaning the one I am most excited about, is the impetus for this video.
- I like Legacy games as an experience.
- It's one of those things that I managed to get a sense of seeing the way things chain and interact with each other. But, I don't fully get a sense of it until it's on my table and I'm making those decisions and thinking through the actions.
- I've been pulled in more by games that are easier to table than games that are more complicated and possibly more rewarding.
- Single session does not a review make.
- This is my most anticipated Awaken Realms game, not even a question.

- Oh, man. Uh, so I was trying to do some math here of like how many cards are in the deck and I did know notice in the rulebook it's 54 and there's six suits. So, I assume it would be nine each. But then Bailey made the point of like, 'Well, there's got to be at least 10 sculptors.' And then I forgot that some bunch of these are double-sided.

Overall sentiment (raw)
mixed
Pros
- Publisher's smart business decisions for profitability.
- The existence of a how-to-play video is acknowledged as fantastic, even if not a rule booklet.
Cons
- Lack of a rule booklet.
- High price point for the base game and expansions.
- Art prints are expensive and their size is not always specified.
- Gameplay video was not helpful in showcasing the game.
- The value proposition of the $80 base game was not felt by the reviewer.
- The $270 price jump for an ultimate edition is seen as poorly sold.
Thematic elements
Comparison games
none
Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Art prints — The publisher is banking 'obnoxiously hard on those stupid art prints' and selling them separately.
- Expansions — There are expansions that players feel they 'want' even if they don't 'need' them, leading to purchases.
- Promo Cards — Similar to art prints, promo cards are seen as a way to generate revenue, with people willing to buy them at conventions.

Quotes (from this video)
- So, do I want it? Um, no, not really.
- It just feels the expansion to your original game at $25 and slapping me in the face and saying, "Oh, but you should be happy it's $30."
- I didn't feel the value of it.
- So, as much as I hate it and as much as I think it's not the best thing for the hobby in general, for them as a publisher, it's smart.
- That being said, the grade is still not not good, I don't think.
- Yeah. C minus.
