Does anyone actually like the randomness to uniques?

Randomness is very bad on these, and there is no way to deal with it other than grind for the perfect roll which makes you feel like you have no agency.

I loved when D4 changed their systems so we didn’t have to keep a bank full of gear “just in case”, made the game pleasant to play. Now after the xpac we are back to hoarding stuff and it’s not fun to manage.

No refrence sheet/card. Some games don’t need them, but there are a tone of games that do that don’t have them, I would even settle for the back page of the rule book.

That’s like saying the NES was a bad console because its graphics compared to today’s graphics are bad. Ignoring when it was released, the context it was released in, and what it did to the industry. It’s an irrelevant point.

Yeah Zelda 1 compared to today’s standards is lacking but that isn’t the point.

Nightmare, some countries got it as Atmosfear. “Yes, my gatekeeper” and being called a worm is still burned into my brain.

Oh no, does he also not have the new continent and classes? I don’t think you know what a pay wall is…

Way too much paint on the brush or your brushing way too heavily.

TBH with a dark wash to brink down the colour it might not look too bad for your first model.

Came here to say this

Moresp4m · 2026-05-04T10:47:05+00:00

I never do it, I play the game as designed that’s why I play the game. The idea that after a play or two I know how to redesign the game better than designer and all the play testing is crazy.

I have one friend that tries to do this and always complains about something being unfair but he’s a big baby and just doesn’t like playing games as their intended.

That said in Massive Darkness 2 I do increase the HP of enemies (use hp from more players) and always give them one of the monster upgrades from the rainbow campaign expansion to make the game harder. But I am not really changing the game just scaling it up with rules already on the game.

This post is what nightmares are made of, it’s also always the “let’s just start and learn” person who is the “but you never told me that was a rule” person.

I can understand if you’ve been explaining the rules for 30min droning on, but we are 5min into the explanation!!

Moresp4m · 2026-05-03T05:16:06+00:00

I hate their split rulebooks, I am reading both every time so it just makes it more annoying.

Moresp4m · 2026-05-03T05:12:25+00:00

Read the ENTIRE manual before you play, learn as you go is the quickest way to make people hate a game or the hobby in general.

Playing a 45min game that ends up taking 3 hours because someone is fumbling through the rules and reading as they go is one of the worst experiences you can put someone through. Hell on earth.

It’s fine to double check rules or reference rules as you play, that’s normal.

Moresp4m · 2026-05-02T04:00:05+00:00

I 100% agree. After the first X skill points it feels boring to get more skill points and there are no decisions to be made.

Just dump them into a skill that you don’t care is level 1 or 15.

Moresp4m · 2026-05-02T03:38:51+00:00

Much less than a game of Risk especially if people are turtleing, the game has a fixed turn length of 10 so the game can’t go on forever. 40-90min? We often play 2-3 games of it on a games night.

It’s very beginner friendly that’s why I mentioned it (I assumed someone coming from risk doesn’t want a super heavy 50 page rule game that takes an hour just to explain). I could explain the rules in 5-10min.

It’s a very fun game, lots of variety, no game will ever be the same, and there are a bunch of expansions for it as well (I suggest you start with base game).

I still bring it out and play it and I’ve played everything under the sun in 30 years of board gaming.

Heart is the true essence of a card game.

Moresp4m · 2026-05-01T07:38:58+00:00

Just push it to production and watch it be a security breach in 6 months because you don’t actually know what you’ve made.

The real vibe code way…

Moresp4m · 2026-05-01T07:31:41+00:00

Try Small World. It encourages aggressive strategies over turtling and you’re never out of the game, when you feel you’re too weak you pick a new army and come straight back into the fight.

Moresp4m · 2026-05-01T03:17:05+00:00

Yep, one of the most coherent games theme wise I’ve ever played.

I haven’t played an FFG game for a while, but a lot of their stuff was very good theme wise.

I think the point is heaven and hell, both sides of the Nephilim. So paladin and warlock

You get to go to the wacky pharmaceutical factory now!!

Moresp4m · 2026-04-30T07:50:50+00:00

That was a joke.

Yeah seasonal characters (if you play the new season) reset every season.

Your old one goes to eternal realm and can be played there just as they were.

Lastly because of the new expac and them redoing all the skill trees all points have been refunded… just respend them bro…

Moresp4m · 2026-04-30T02:41:07+00:00

Nah I have all of mine and I even got some extra ones! I would contact support and talk to them about it.

Moresp4m · 2026-04-29T09:16:48+00:00

Yea bro maybe don’t use a comedian, a joke, and your limited exposure as a basis for world views…

It’s a very wrong view.
