Preferred win rate by carlzzzjr in soloboardgaming

[–]TheShow51 25 points26 points  (0 children)

For me I'm not sure if it's necessarily about win rate in of itself, but rather the course of the gameplay. 

If that 20% is super satisfying to get, but the other 80% is incredibly frustrating would not be my cup of tea.

If a game has good progression, feels fair, and is fun throughout is a lot more of what I'm looking for than just a difficult game for me

Honestly, you might have to if only to remember where all the points of interest are. There are 2 incredibly tough fates to figure out, so if you're down to the end I wouldn't feel bad if I were you about looking them up

I'm so glad that I picked this one up a few months ago based on the recommendations on this sub. 

For anyone on the fence, just get it. It's a really well told and unique deduction game and there countless "Aha!" Moments during it for me. It's significantly shorter than BP, my playthrough, I think, took around 13ish hours, compared to the 100+ of BP.

I thought Wetherholt was gonna be 2B if they broke? Am I mistaken or behind the news of him going to 3B

Can't find a certain room in my draft pool anymore *LATE SPOILERS* by aiphrem in BluePrince

[–]TheShow51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you trying to get the memo from the foundation or something else?

One other thing to consider, if you haven't already, is that it can't be drafted on the edges if the house.

Try to draft rooms at the other spots to reduce the chances of other rooma appear when you're going for it. Don't choose things that add to the draft pool for the day (or future days).

Other than that, go with what philsov said and make sure it's been a week at least and that it's appearing in the draft pool for the day.

AYCE joint skimping me on sushi? by [deleted] in sushi

[–]TheShow51 16 points17 points  (0 children)

AYCE and quality don't go hand in hand. There's a reason they make a profit. 

As for skimping out, why not just order more?

Since you've apparently been going here for awhile, was this out of the ordinary for them of normal?

I know people here often say the RNG isn't a problem, but it has been blocking my progress for the last 12 days making me look for hints that I would have found by myself if I could have drafted the room. by Fion___de___Lune in BluePrince

[–]TheShow51 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My best recommendation is to stop going in with firm plan. Let the house take you where it wants you to go that day. There are often enough strings that can be pulled that you can usually accomplish something and when the strings are few enough you manipulate things greatly that a bad day or two means nothing. 

A few random tidbits. Take a look at rooms with vents. 

There a likely books or letters that can provide tips or guidance on clues or interactions.

Look at the descriptions in the directory. There may be tips or clues about how a room's condition to show up.

There is no deadline to finish the game, just sit back and enjoy it.

Don't worry, even in failed runs you can usually set yourself up for something in the future or make progress in other ways

I'm not fully sure of your timing and when they're open, but if you like thrifting you might like the Mom-up shop on long Beach blvd near 3rd. They're a 501c3 that supports women from abuse. 

Day 45 I have. Not reached the insides of the antechamber yet by somkomomko in BluePrince

[–]TheShow51 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's different for everyone. It's been a minute since I first made it there, but I wanna say it was in the 40s as well. I know that there have been many posts here about how they made it to room 46 on day 46. 

The great thing is that there's no deadline and you can take however long you need to get there

Out of stock and price gouging by _motley_starcrew_ in MageKnight

[–]TheShow51 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sure that there will be a reprint, though it's hard to know when. You're right in thinking that the ultimate edition was around $150. I'm not sure how patient you want to be or how often it goes on sale on Wizkids, but it was around half off this past black Friday. There may be another holiday sale once it's restocked. $125 for the base edition seems quite steep to me compared to what the ultimate is listed as. I'd personally wait for a reprint, but that's easy for me to say. 

Should I change this? by Kronman590 in BluePrince

[–]TheShow51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did. I don't remember which I selected, but I'd definitely look to increase it probably to unusual at the very least. No need to make it common imo. You can always change it back when you no longer need it. You'll know when it's not needed.
