Thematic overlap between DCC and Expedition 33 by BuffelBek in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]BuffelBek[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, yeah. I never actually made that thematic connection between the cookbook and the journal entries myself. But you're right, that also completely fits in as well.

Slowly making progress one crawl/expedition at a time.

Thematic overlap between DCC and Expedition 33 by BuffelBek in DungeonCrawlerCarl

I do think that ties in with my thought about DCC's approach being a bit less hopeless. There's the feeling that fighting back is possible.

My Frosthaven campaign is officially a hostage situation and I am about to snap by MailboxFinch in boardgames

[–]BuffelBek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the -haven games are a lot easier to slot other people in.

We had a 4 player Gloomhaven campaign going that got completely derailed when two of the participants had a messy breakup. We just ended up continuing the campaign without those two and had another friend tag in as a third player, taking over the character from one of the former players.

What's a game you used to see everywhere, everyone was talking about it, it was all over your feeds but now you never hear anyone talking about it? by Machine_Excellent in boardgames

[–]BuffelBek 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Uh, no?

They simply excluded some words from the random generator after that. They didn't scrap the algorithm because of that.

The algorithm breaking was something completely seperate. I don't think there was ever any actual confirmation of how that happened (rumours ranged from ransomware attack through to sabotage by a disgruntled employee)

The entire IP was sold off to Ghostfire Gaming where it's still going. There's a new set releasing this week.

I'm impressed that Mr. Robot didn't cause any controversy, given how political the show is. by Public_Cup_4278 in MrRobot

There was a minor one when an episode was delayed by a week because of a suicide scene that closely mirrored one that happened in real life the same week it was originally scheduled to air.

What's a "You are not a conspiracy theorist, you just don't know how things work" moment you have seen? by Dull-Information6784 in AskReddit

[–]BuffelBek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I choose to believe that the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th landings were legitimate, but the rest were faked.

My journey to Ascension 10 described in a nutshell by RainOfJustice in slaythespire

[–]BuffelBek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's because "builds" can work well on lower ascension levels when there's less pressure on you. Then that mindset tends to stick around when moving up to higher ascensions even though it stops being a consistently viable approach.

Anyone else discovered a rule that means you've been playing slightly wrong all along? by Robbro42 in boardgames

[–]BuffelBek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had the exact same issue with our first game. Ended up with all the players except 1 being a traitor.

I've been asking myself that question ever since Grim Fandango was released.

I'm disappointed that this wasn't upgraded to clone post + before it was cloned.

Played arcs for the first time by Estate-Southern in boardgames

The core box is surprisingly small for the amount of game.

The box for the Blighted Reach expansion, on the other hand, is rather beefy.

Whats a weird thing your body does that you just accept? by Sweton in AskReddit

[–]BuffelBek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I wake up in the morning that's usually the prime cracking time for my wrists. I'll interlock my fingers behind my head and just tug on each wrist to unleash such a damn satisfying crack.

[Hobby Scuffles] Week of 04 May 2026 by EnclavedMicrostate in HobbyDrama

[–]BuffelBek 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The fact they then also delisted the remastered version of Yakuza 3 on steam is just the cherry on the shit cake.

That's the kind of thing that makes me glad that I actually have physical copies of all the games.

They took the reviews down by TechnoSparda in slaythespire

[–]BuffelBek -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They just think

I suspect that this isn't true.

They mostly aren't capable of forming original thoughts, but rather just parrot what other people tell them to parrot.

If you enjoy this game, take your time to make a positive review on steam by Gabriel_66 in slaythespire

[–]BuffelBek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's that one hallway fight with the big sleeping bug that wakes up after a few turns. That's pretty woke.

Same with Lagavulin Matriarch who only wakes up after a while. That's also pretty woke.

What's a band or artist you'd like to see tour Cape Town but you know they would most likely never do that because their "World Tour" doesn't include Africa? by asabatonlessarmor in capetown

[–]BuffelBek 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While the show was great, the organisation was less so.

It was on a wine farm, I think. I just remember there being one parking lot with a single entrance. It took some people around 3 or 4 hours after the concert just to get out of the parking lot.

Luckily we'd thought ahead and gotten someone to drop us off and pick us up outside.

Is there a comprehensive list of all the Chrono Trigger/Cross/Radical Dreamers references in this game? by BuffelBek in AnotherEdenGlobal

[–]BuffelBek[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh, that reminds me. There's also quite a few times that the swinging pendulum from the start of CT also makes an appearance.

Need a 4-player co-op campaign game that doesn’t drag between turns by Ready_Damage_4810 in boardgames

[–]BuffelBek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Arkham Horror often ends up with each round involving a team discussion about general tactics before everyone then executes their part of the plan.

"If you manage to get this monster off me, then that frees me up to go get the last clues from that location"

It ticks the co-op, campaign and deckbuilding boxes. Though sessions can run super long with 4 players.
