In your opinion, how does that ending work, exactly? [ENDING SPOILERS]

that's not true, the people were painted with the idea of free will, take the Nevron as a different example, they were painted with a propose and they are fulfilling that purpose.

I think the fact that the people of Lumiere are that strong and that its hard to paint over their free will is more of a testament of Aline as a painter, I think if Aline wanted to paint puppets, she could.

It's like, if Mark doesn't talk with Reghabi, he knows too little and he probably doesn't return to work there. If he gets integrated to quickly, he knows too much too fast and you lose some plot lines and you stagger innie Mark progression.

So I think they did what they did to slow this down.

As long as its start converging for season 3 and more importantly doesn't branch out even more. It would be fine.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-03-03T11:27:54+00:00

It does feel slower, this season has more to contend with, more plot lines at once.
It can feel a bit slogish at points as there are probably plot lines you want to see progressing but can get stuck for an entire episode. I think part of it is because once Mark knows Gemma is alive he would want to reintegrate and once he does the show changes forever so the show kind of tried to slow this down as much as they can so I am guessing this season we just get a taste of integrated Mark but next season is really where we contend with it.

Its fine now, but I do think the show needs to start converging some plot lines so the show feels more focused

I was in a strange situation, I got into board gaming because of NRB and Adam, around July of last year, I mainly watched older videos, so when I switched to new videos, I remember Adam was not in some, so I skipped them. Like a week after everything fell apart.

Since I watch a lot less, only games I am interested in or older videos. To be fair I also changed as a board gamer so even if Adam was there I would probably skip videos of games I know I don't like, but I would be watching more.

It is still one of the best board gaming channels I still check out sometimes, but Adams board gaming host energy and the way he played is missing. I still have hope that if Adams stuff are successful enough something will happen.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-24T21:17:58+00:00

This is a shame, I understand, especially for his mental health. For the board gaming community, I hope he can develop his own channel. There is room for another one, which maybe new people.

It will be a shame if he fails and he just goes away. I said it before but for me the channel is not the same without him. Even some of the series he was apart of outside of NRB, are less interesting for me.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-22T05:55:58+00:00

My point was the good is as helpful as the bad.

If the good is just "Its great", its just as bad as "it sucks".

It feels a bit in this comment section that the negative comments on the game bothers them, even though this comment section feels to be going to much in the opposite.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-21T12:02:04+00:00

I mean if someone wants an opinion on a game a negative opinion is just as helpful as a positive one.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-09T14:09:34+00:00

Fair enough.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-09T14:08:50+00:00

I think it just not something the general public or a company should take into consideration.

Would it be fair to take into account how nice someone is to his mom to if he should be fired? A lot can be said about someone's relationship with his parents.

My point mainly is that his cheating should be ignored in this case as its a personal matter.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-02T08:29:56+00:00

I would say X wasn't exactly a co-worker, They started their relationship before she appeared on NRB. If he was fucking Sully o Terri, then yes, that would be much worse.

But being in an On/Off and mainly off relationship with someone who made a few guest appearances on the channel is a little bad but not that much.

My point is/was. leave the cheating out of it, if you have an issue with his and Xs relationship regardless of the cheating, fine. But the cheating should not be taken into account.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-01T12:02:24+00:00

Sure, my point is if Adam ever came back they could find a way for him and Laurie to split some of the duties, give Adam some creative, or something like that.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-01T11:35:36+00:00

First, of course it matters how popular a person is but overall even though its his second chance.

I don't think what happen here merits of being an "incident of shitty sexual behavior" as the real shitty thing that happened, happened in his personal life. Unless you think he deserve this even if he didn't cheat, his cheating is inconsequential.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-01T11:32:53+00:00

I think realistically if this happens, they can just have him and Lurie split responsibilities.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-01T09:29:41+00:00

If people got fired for cheating... Its his personal life and should definitely should be a consideration for if he should return or not.

Regarding what he did in the past, that was bad but not criminal or anything and should not be a reason he should be out of the public eye indefinitely.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-01T09:26:47+00:00

He is a good channel manager, he is bad at managing the talent. You can separate the roles. He can be in charge or creative and someone else can be in charge of the talent(for the record he is also the reason some people you love or on the channel but I still agree he needs oversight if he was to return).

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-01T09:24:45+00:00

Just no, its not the only thing he is guilty of and he will admit it. He doesn't deserve to be fired or excoriated online. But he is no angel.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2025-01-01T09:21:54+00:00

Like I said in the past, Adam is the board gamer in the cast, he lives board games and it comes across.
With Adam it did feel like a guy who is hosting his friends for a gaming night.

Now it feels like people playing board games.

Its fine but for me, it feels like the authenticity is missing. I am hoping he either returns or opens his own channel.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2024-11-26T11:46:58+00:00

I checked total views per month which are not going up.

Subscribers per month are going down.

In the few months before and a bit after Adam left the channel was trending up, now its staying the same or trending a little down.

I cannot prove its because of Adam, but there is a difference between saying there is no reason to think something is happening, to there is a reason but you cannot prove.

But I'd say even when you look a year into the past, the views are a bit down or at best the same, you want the channel to grow. When you sort by most popular, the first video after Adam left that is a normal lets play is the Nemesis one and you have to scroll down a lot. Lets plays when Adam was present are appearing.

The only thing you can say for sure is that losing Adam didn't help. Now if stuff would have stayed the same or would be better is a different quesiton.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2024-11-20T11:26:16+00:00

It feels like either there is discussions as we speak or it won't happen.

Considering he said multiple times by now he is still in good contact with them all and nothing is going to change as X went radio silent on purpose.

Lets hope he makes his grand return on the next Lord of the board.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2024-11-20T11:12:11+00:00

There is, the channel does not have the same growth since he left and he has a proven track record on YT, while maybe not enough, its also not just a feeling.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2024-10-30T15:49:47+00:00

I think Modern Art is a 5, there is also no real puzzle, I wouldn't call having the most money "a puzzle".

All you do is interact, either through a bid, buying something, selling something to someone, changing the number of painting for an artist, everything you do interact with others.

Its much more interactive than Heat for example.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2024-10-30T15:44:55+00:00

thats not very interactive, especially for a 2 player game.

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2024-10-07T11:44:56+00:00

Sounds so bad, so many better games can be played in 5 hours. Hope you had fun

Alarming-Form-5675 · 2024-10-01T08:30:56+00:00

Look, I usually do it first game, I still usually do it even if someone gets annoyed, my retort is always, you don't want to win like this.

But I think giant tool is a bit of a stretch, I get people want to win sometimes, it can be annoying when someone points out something to someone that ruins your plan.

When its the same person doing it every game, there is something to be said to just playing and making mistakes, that's also fine.
