I make good use of the timestamps when they are accurate. For this video they are way off. Would you be able to fix them so that others may benefit? Below is my suggested revised set of timestamps: 0:00:00 - Introduction 0:00:48 - Cult of the Now 0:02:55 - Sponsor 0:04:19 - Dice Tower 0:05:43 - Doom Guard 0:06:56 - High Frontier 4 All Module 5 0:08:49 - Earthborne Rangers 0:13:19 - Storm Raiders 0:16:15 - TOKYO HIGHWAY Rainbow City 0:18:28 - EVE: War for New Eden 0:22:05 - CRYPTIC NATURE 0:26:30 - Picks of the Week 0:27:36 - Upcoming Campaigns
Earthborne rangers is available on the Team Covenant site, they are the exclusive seller in the US outside of retailers that backed in the original campaign
It looks like there is a lot of replayable content there within each "day" of the campaign. My concern is more about how repetitive the game will be over the course of the campaign.
I do miss the days when crowd-funding felt more akin to the prospect of helping make someone's dream game into reality, whereas many times now it's just feels like a pre-order service...
omg ultimate dad joke. I don't think I'll be backing any of the current games but I'm definitely interested in Earthborne, & Storm Raiders (though I think I'd like that game even more if it included combat) and I'm interested in playing Cryptic Nature. I totally want to late-back Beast & the expansions but I realistically have no one to play it with. May just admire from afar. Have a great vacay w/ the family and at the game convention.
Interesting week! Some of the campaigns like Cryptic Nature and Photo Tour are ones I avoid personally because I don't agree with the usage of VIP $1 preorders. The system itself just doesn't sit right with me and I feel like it will only be a matter of time before we begin see preorder deposits for $2 and $5. Earthborne Rangers seems really interesting, but it is on the pricey side. I'm telling myself I have plenty of other campaign games to get to skip out on this one. Also, I your timestamps are a little out of order haha!
Alex, obviously you run a board game channel but there is a card video game "puzzle" that is very goal oriented just the way you like them. SLAY THE SPIRE available on mobile and PC. It's like an interactive card game. Simple to learn and extremely hard to master, especially if you are attempting to complete achievements. People have easily racked up hundreds of hours of play (quite a few with thousands of hours). Say goodbye to Sunshine and your family if you go down this extremely well regarded game. You can thank / blame me later 😅
Storm Raiders has so much going for it: Love the theme, love the designer, like the publisher, but the gameplay is just lacking something. It just doesn't make me want to play it. It's missing the interaction and fun.
Agree with this - looks like a game I would love but I've watched a couple of playthroughs and they've left me feeling less excited for it than I thought I would be.
While I applaud Earthborne Rangers for trying to be sustainable... I am buying it for the game not the sustainability. In fact, I don't want it to naturally degrade. The first thing I would do when receiving it is put card condoms on everything which is definitely not Earth friendly. But, also means I don't have to buy multiple copies to replace damaged components so... I guess that is Earth friendly?
It is a good game, but a strong warning about the first printing - the rulebook needs a complete overhaul, as it lacks some important rules and clarifications. You will be much better served by watching a playthrough on Earthborne Games' channel with two newbies that has the two designers explaining the rules and giving advice. Aside from that, the games builds upon the best mechanics of Arkham Horror, with a completely new and original setting. It is not a simple game, as there are a plenty of card synergies out there, so I welcome more content. The price tag is indeed high, but it is the price we are paying for a more environmentally friendly production, as well as for a small company trying to break through. If you want economies of scale, you need to go for some of the big publishers, unfortunately.
I think maybe your kids might like Tokyo Highway, at least every kid I've ever played with really enjoyed it. And Eve seems strange, I have no interest in a grand space 4x thats basically a race game.

time stamps *cough*
Even stamps get the sniffles and feel a little off from time to time
Hmm...which ones are wrong. Not sure what happened.
@@BoardGameCo Most/all of them are wrong. Earthborne Rangers and Eve and like everything in between them?
He must have been in a big hurry, they are pretty much all wrong. :)
All. Of. Them. Hehe
I used to call Eclipse 'EVE Offline.'
Earthborne rangers is available on the Team Covenant site, they are the exclusive seller in the US outside of retailers that backed in the original campaign
It is also $100 on their site though as opposed $80
I am definitely struggling to decide if I want Earthborne Rangers. I am not sure if there is enough replayability in it

I hear that. I like the bonuses that come with preorder but I get it
Thanks for doing what ya do!
FYI: I noticed the timestamps are a little off.
Hmm...what part?
@@BoardGameCo 😃 Somehow it's seems fine now. 😉

That shipping charge on Tokyo Highway! Oof!
That is one snazzy sweater, looking good.

lol I'm hundreds of hours in it, I definitely get lost in that one
nice hoodie
Thanks :)
That joke. I'm using it!
Lol enjoy it

not mentioning Ruination: Blood Sworn as an upcoming campaign????
Yeah time stamps are off. Great video and not complaining just letting you know 😊
Hmmm...I'll look at when I have a chance
the stowii is way gtoo expensive. why not a plastic version?
I imagine this is cheaper to make if not mass producing. Laser cut wood is a bit easier for smaller quantities.
Anyone that compares earthborne rangers to zelda has never played zelda
lol I would assume they played Zelda
@@BoardGameCo not sure why you would think that. Exploration does not mean breath of the wild. There's exploration in every single open world game
Nothing board game related, but The coat.....where'd you get it?😅
Lunafide :)
But I'm the Stowey! I'll have to sue
Class action it!
Highly interested in Earthborne I’m just concerned about going all in with kickstarter drama that happens
I respect that
They delivered the first part, and have no other outstanding projects.
@@CheddahSlammer I’m getting more and more tempted. ❤️ thanks!
earthborne is just so expensive its putting me off
I totally get that, It's a lot

Ya, I don't disagree. But there's also an audience for that. Ultimately it's doing well.

I think they would too :)
The promise of Sam Healy returning pretty much killed the progress on the dice tower campaign lol.
Really? Im not seeing any evidence in kicktraq that it's slowing?
That one is bad, even for a Dad joke. 😅
Lol so bad it's good right??? Right?
@@BoardGameCo 🤣
Can't wait to try that shampoo 🪮
Lol yep
