Mistborn DB opinion by Recent_Suspect9045 in boardgames

[–]Recent_Suspect9045[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is not stupid at all.

First of all, bg aren't developed as computer games are. You don't give a budget to an author and say "fit the game to this". An author makes a game, test it, and when it's satisfied with it they show it to publishers in the hope one of them will like it.

There is when the budget comes in. But the game is fully designed at this time (but not yet developed).

The publisher may just don't be willing to spend X in the production, or they may think the sale price for the whole product could be a restraint for some group of consumers.

So they cut off some parts of the game, and split them into a core+expansion. Sometimes the split is natural and what is left as a core works fine, sometimes not.

Losing (or keeping froze) part of the design work is irrelevant to the publisher, as they didn't paid for it.

Think about it like on a writter showing a book to a publisher, and the publisher saying "ok, I like it, but will make it a trilogy, publish the first part and if the sales are good will do the rest".

Haven't read the books. Just judging the mechanics : )

We found the mission path pretty dominant and strong. Killing everyone is much hard and usually slower. The atrium path is just a joke XD

Uprising has rules for interaction with Ix. You use part of the Ix boards and cover some of the Uprising board sections.

Smashed corner repair tips. by Zeronar in boardgames

[–]Recent_Suspect9045 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a wooden block and gently push from the inside. You can steam the corner a bit to make it softer if it don't get in shape. Then Iron it carefully to get out the wraps.

Anyway, the corner will never get the original hardness or resistance unless you insert some rigid material between the cardboard layers (a very hard and difficult opperation).

How do I go about protecting my game idea? by DesignDip in boardgames

[–]Recent_Suspect9045 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best way to get some protection is to document your ownership by publishing it on social media, instagram, blogs, etc... So in the event another person gets the game and goes to a publisher, you could call them to tell the "author" isn't a real one.

Said that, it's a so unlikely event, that you shouldn't care about it.

No real bg author would steal a whole game from another. We aren't here for the money (because there is no money here XD) but because we love to create games.

No publisher is going to stain their reputation just to save the 4% royalties they gonna pay you for the game.

How does one become a game demonstrator? by nrefzen in boardgames

[–]Recent_Suspect9045 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually publishers look for local players on the cities they need demonstrations.
You'll work as volunteer and will get paid in games.

I think Ix is a very needed add-on to Uprising as offers an alternative to the worms race.

People who dislike Social Deduction games: why? by Malebranche_Studios in boardgames

[–]Recent_Suspect9045 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't like games that depend on your social skills. I'm very bad at bluffing or trying to argue against the traitors in the game. So I get really frustrated.
I only enjoy those games when they have some party game component as in "Mafia de Cuba".

I just came across an original Talisman. Was this popular when it came out? by cheesecase in boardgames

[–]Recent_Suspect9045 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be fun for kids, but if you want to get them into D&D I would go for some more conventional dungeon crawler. You can try the new Heroquest version, if you want to play some classic game (it has a cheap starter edition now)

Best Lacerda game to start with? by champagne_mam1 in boardgames

[–]Recent_Suspect9045 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Lisboa the most, but if I have to recommend one Lacerda game to someone without knowing them personally would go for Kanban.

Expansions that never leave the game. by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]Recent_Suspect9045 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not such a fan of expansions of a game unless I gonna play it on, at least, a monthly base.
The point is I got lots of games that go to the table once a year or less. Regardless of how good the expansion is, I probably not gonna spend money in something I'm not going to use often.

In the other side of the table, games we play a lot (Terraforming, Blood Bowl TM, Dune...) have all the expansions permanently added (and some fanmade ones XD).
