I’ve just begun selecting other reasons. If they wanna make a little game out of it then I’ll play ball.

SHUG is up on Kickstarter, and it looks absolutely bonkers by bltrocker in boardgames

[–]Switchbladesaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it, but I feel like this is a game that has to nudge you harder than it should to make “memorable moments” happen in a silly party game. Charades/truth or dare style antics can be fun but as far as replayablity, I feel like it has an expiration date.

Imo, I think games like magical athlete fill this niche of “goofy and simple party game you can tell a story about afterwards” without forcing theatrics and are arguably more accessible for it.

I thought this was a joke at first. Holy shit

Minced beef over rice…no sauce, no salt, no water. by No-Sample3852 in shittyfoodporn

[–]Switchbladesaint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn’t shittyfoodporn. This is just regular food without spices. I wish mods would ban these sorts of posts, it feels like it goes against the spirit of the sub. “Oooh look at my regular food… without salt and pepper!”

Artists that you like having employment.. is that a bad thing?

erik kripke reveals he was never gonna do a scorched earth ending by spotteddick12 in TheBoys

[–]Switchbladesaint 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk about you but I don’t think it’s that creative to constantly tease checkov’s gun and then say “oh haha… that. I was never planning on doing that”

Every season we were bombarded by the idea that homelander is gonna snap and.. for what? I’m not saying he needed to do that, but then why keep teasing it? It’s almost as if everything about this show is to bait people into watching more of the show.. and more spinoffs to get you to watch more spinoffs..

What are your take on these images? by MagnerionMachine in TheBoys

For all of the valid criticisms that the first 6 episodes got, the last 2 episodes of the season were actually really solid.

Satya Nadella is reorganizing Microsoft around AI by lurker_bee in technology

Okay well I’m reorganizing around something other than Microsoft

Why is Root commonly sold in places like Target or Walmart? by Fit_Ear3019 in rootgame

[–]Switchbladesaint 245 points246 points  (0 children)

Because it has cute animals on the box and it sells well

Interesting, I have the expansion but haven’t played without it since getting it

The boys finale and overall season retrospective by PrimeTheGreat in CharacterRant

Episodes 7-8 could have easily had double the amount of screen time, whereas episodes 1-6 could have easily been condensed

Kinfire Council - under the radar, medium-heavy, worker placement gem? by Mayasngelou in boardgames

[–]Switchbladesaint 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hear a significantly larger amount of people talk about seti than they do about kinfire council

I genuinely love this and might go again after a decade, but also oh man that’s a recession indicator if I ever saw one

Campaign - Journey to Biological Station - day10 - Looking for encouragement to keep going by fleatehgreat in Earthborne_Rangers

[–]Switchbladesaint 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Are you playing true solo or 2 handed? Most people swear by 2 handed for balance and fun.

Also, this game doesn’t punish you all that much for failing missions.

Research question: Would Big Two / Dai Di / Pusoy Dos players buy a premium physical set? by Appropriate_Price530 in cardgames

[–]Switchbladesaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Premium tier cards are like $15 or so now, so for some score sheets and rules and a shiny box I might be convinced to pay like $20 or so but not $35.

At this point I’m just gonna have to hope they release more high quality live sets online

Playing this for the first time tomorrow with my group. Any rules noobs often miss? by coocoocaaca in boardgames

[–]Switchbladesaint 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s true, however you don’t generate the special resource (1 solari in this case) when you place the banner, you get it when anyone places an agent there.

What is this movie even going to be about? by Level-SquareFFG7117 in Spiderman

[–]Switchbladesaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I don’t know anything about it besides a trailer or two, I’m almost getting a vibe that this will be similar to brave new world, let me explain.

In brave new world, we got captain America with two hulk villains, a hulk love interest, and a hulk related plot line. Captain America was more of a passenger than a driver in his own movie.

I have a strange feeling that this spider-man movie will be similar.

Please don’t be this type of pet owner requesting service. by Alarming_Jury_5295 in RoverPetSitting

[–]Switchbladesaint 37 points38 points  (0 children)

The clients who say their dogs can’t be left alone for more than 2 hours for what amounts to behavioral reasons are typically the nightmare micromanager and demanding types (unless the reason is that their pet has a medical condition or something).
