    Insta back. Thanks for your final thoughts. When I heard that The Mico did the art, I was already interested. Then I saw the look components. The quality with just the prototype components is off the charts. The different paths you can take. I was also worried that the tribe cards looked like they had the same iconography. Yet I can see them working out really well in other aspects of that all-important bonus action you wanted is taken.

    I run really hot-hot at times and cold-cold at other times with Richard, which is par for the course, but he is dead on, and I'm very excited for this game. Thanks for covering this, sir. Some of my very favorite games on my shelf have come from your videos over the years.

    Great vid, Rahdo - your enthusiasm shines through! Just wanted to say that Tyrants of the Underdark is another criminally under-rated combo worker-placement / deckbuilding game. Well overdue a new release... 👍

    Endless Winter Sounds amazing. I would argue that Rurik is not a dudes on a map game. you can win and go the whole game without attacking human or being attacked by another human. You will attack the Rebels for sure, makes a lot of sense. Attacking other players is not super efficient. It's more efficient to just to try to recruit more or move more people in there to get the benefits of controlling territories. I would say though like 75% of the interaction is in the Auction.

    You raised concerns that the workers might be repetitive. Luckily there will be double the numbers when you pledge with the expansion. And I bet there will be some new chiefs as more and more stretch goals unlock. :)

    Whats that about puting labor chips on culture cards at the end of the round (0:31)? Is that a prototype thing? I'm not sure if that rule exists in the retail version of the game.

      @malte8088 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I guess the review has to be positiv or at least not negativ, when they get paid for it.
      But I think you can guess the value of the game by comparing the amount of positive points and side information.
      But this means, that you have to know the reviewer a bit.
      And that being said, I would guess that Rahdo really meant the positiv conclusion.

    • @Therisktaker3
      @Therisktaker3 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I would go by the playthrough and not necessarily what the previewer has to say. Now don’t get me wrong I don’t think Richard would lie about liking a game, but he even states with his paid previews and that you can take it for what it’s worth.

    I think the "tool to kill someone" makes sense as "a tool to bury someone".
    Aka: thematically the tribe member has died, and you need a tool (spade) to give them an honourable send off.

    Rurik is amazing. You might like it. Fighting is simplified. You decide you need a territory, you get it but you draw a card and might suffer a casualty yourself. There is even a way to have an idea what will be on the card you pull. It isn't that brutal. And he does a great job adjusting for 2p, which I know is big for you that a designer adjusts for that. It is definitely worth a try for you.

    CLubbing villagers? How about Norse / Vikings like in Blood Rage? Killing them off (in battle mind you) gets you points there too. So, not unheard of. Then again I look at it as buried means family tomb instead of a pile of dirt, ie. honoring the dead.

    I want to love this game, but the way the KS is being handled is just dreadful.
    Why on earth pretend there are FIVE expansions/modules for a game that isn't even released. It's actually Day 1 DLC, some of which is a small stack of cards with artificial MSRP next to them. Maybe if this were a company I knew, but this is a first-time game for these guys, and I just can't trust them. I hope I'm wrong and see it on the shelves in a year.

      Hi JDH all the details for the expansions will be revealed on the following days through constant updates. We might be a new publishing company but the minds behind Endless Winter are all experienced people of the tabletop industry. We totally respect your concerns though and we will do our best to exceed ourselves.

    • @G0F15H
      @G0F15H 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @JDH "Why on earth pretend there are FIVE expansions / modules for a game that isn't even released?" I'm sorry but I don't understand your criticism. They are ways to expand the core game. Several of those modules / promos are being included for free if you back the game. None of it is DLC- this isn't a video game (so it's not digital) and it's not post-release errata or add-on content (which is what DLC has become - ways to fix a rushed, incomplete and in some cases broken game and milk more money out of the player-base).
      Personally I'd rather see a core game that is easier to teach or play with a more novice group then add in a module if desired vs every single idea the devs currently have thrown into 1 box with convoluted rules

    • @G0F15H
      @G0F15H 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @JDH Regarding your comment about artificial MSRP... it does annoy me when KS Exclusive games have add-ons with MSRP because that term and the prices are irrelevant if the product never ends up on retailers' shelves. This is not a KS Exclusive though. So the MSRP is the price they're suggesting any retailer sets for the products. There's nothing artificial about the MSRPs in this case. Back and get it for free or at a reduced price with your pledge, or pay MSRP at a retailer later
