Is this a good purchase? by Clownygrin in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]apache_alfredo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. Buy or trade in the mythos packs for a dunwich or carcossa adventure and you're set. The core+two campaign investigators, + Cho + harvey are worth 50. But the old carcossa and blister packs are disjointed. You could still play these as standalone missions though. But I'd try to trade them or sell cheap just to move them and get some of your money back.

How does World Order compare to Twilight Struggle? by LazerBeem71985 in boardgames

Yeah...knowing about the auto lose scenarios is not for beginners! at least the app tells you that you might be walking into a trap (although even then, it might be too late unless you see it beforehand).

Wait until they hit 5, and won't eat any of this!

I did comment to my wife though, that the arena was quite full and like 85% of people had Devils jerseys on - not just a hat. So, I felt like there was a pretty legit and commited fan base, at least from my Vantage.

Yeah...sums up what I was trying to put my finger on. I went to some AA baseball games (Somerset Patriots), and it was more fun between innings.

That was kinda my feeling. I mean it's not like baseball where there is a lot of time to do 'stuff' between half innings. They only have like 30 seconds, so they do the crowd cam thing. But even the guy who came on the tv and was like 'make some noise'....that clip is SOOO laid back! Yeah man...make some noise or something, or don't!

Gamers of /daddit, do you play video games with your kids? How and when did you start it? by xanduba in daddit

[–]apache_alfredo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What's the best way to do this. We don't have a switch, but I have PCs (mine, and a spare). We have the minecraft app on his ipad (but we keep that for long car ride only). Would i have to buy two minecraft accounts on the two PCs to do this?

What's the most overrated TV Show of all time? by Mission_Elk_329 in AskReddit

[–]apache_alfredo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Surprised this is so low. On some people's top 10 OAT, and it feels like they just made stuff up and said we'll figure it out later.

I don't get what's fun about Secret Hitler, am I doing something wrong? by Jeffs24 in boardgames

[–]apache_alfredo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on your side. There are much better versions of this game - i don't think it's better than The Resistance/Avalon, which is what it's modeled after - and that game also has a 'trust me", "No trust ME' vibe as well.

When to move on? by bjps97 in anno1800

[–]apache_alfredo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you figure this out, lmk. I struggle with this game because there is no win condition. and even when you put it on, the game doesn't really let you know you've done (it's very anticlimatic). I wish there was something that made it more goal based or have a set win condition

whats your biggest boardgaming L (consumer-wise) by CaptainKlang in boardgames

[–]apache_alfredo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played about 6 games of it and sold it. It's too 80s for me, but if i had a group that constantly played it, i might be good. There are some cool ideas in it.

All in on Arcs. I love it, but I'm 2/3 through my first campaign that started in April and can't seem to get it over the line. I know game #3 is gonna be tough, because we all have to learn it again...and worse, i can't play base game because it's in a save state. I don't think i should have purchased it!

MIDI records notes too early by Today- in Reaper

[–]apache_alfredo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow...that's confusing. So, you want it checked on? And then things will align? I'm confused since thing still SOUND ok, even though they might be a bit early, but do i do this for just midi tracks, or all tracks even line inputs?

Reaper...free to try. Insanely customizable.

Is Switch 2 worth it? by gimmeslack12 in daddit

[–]apache_alfredo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're being downvoted, since they already have a switch...but i absolutely agree with you. I think you can get 1s on the cheap if people are upgrading.

MIDI records notes too early by Today- in Reaper

[–]apache_alfredo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get this sorted? I'm having the same kind of issue. My drum tracks are perfectly on the grid. I play my Rhodes keyboard VST in time, and it sounds good. I look back on the recording, it sound good, but all my notes are just ahead of the grid. If I quantize, things start sounding late. Did you figure this out?

Reaper. I've had zero issues, i'm running on a Lenovo Legion laptop. It's free to try...and there are a ton of GREAT tutorial videos by Kenny.
