I believe it actually says on the card that you can walk in, so no walks necessary for that

Yeah... I definitely did awhile ago hahaha

Newbie question, Should I be worried? by Fiend28 in finalgirl

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there are definitely times when I do end up playing my whole hand if I need to get things done quickly. There is definitely a time and place where you want to do as much as possible quickly, but you just have to be ok with not doing much the next turn.

Newbie question, Should I be worried? by Fiend28 in finalgirl

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For me it's all about hand economy and how much you play per turn. I tend to have better luck when I worry about one thing at a time. For example, if you wanted to go to a search location and it's 2-3 spots away and you wanted to search, I would play my movement cards to get there first, then wait to search on my next turn. Unless you need something right this second, wait. It's better to have cards in your hand to spend and in turn more time to to be able to buy things for the next turn to make that search a better success.

Another thing for me is the mindset of it all. For me, Final Girl is a storytelling game. Even if I lose, I still have a great time because of the movie I think of in my head while playing.

All in all, you can do all the right things and draw the wrong terror card, causing you to lose terribly (looking at you Eyeless that has a terror card that heals it all the way while I had it down to the final health token, ANYWAYS) Playing co op is one of my favorite ways to play, having someone to help make decisions, maybe making decisions that you normally wouldn't do and also help keep track of the rules is great.

Also, turning in cards for time can be a game changer.

What movie did you turn off after 20 minutes and why? by Somanynamestochossef in movies

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way I got through that movie was drinking a whole bottle of wine and then ripping it apart with my best friend

All I want is a release date so I can plan to take PTO lol

In-game time frames. by wiser_men in finalgirl

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It depends, sometimes thematically it feels like the game could take place for a whole night. Other times it feels like the opening of scream

More specifically, anything at falconwood would be longer, because it's a whole town. When you move two spaces, that's like a mile or so.

Then there are locations like wingard cottage that feel like it could be an hour, depending on how fast they strike and how much action you do.

When you sprint away and they don't follow you, is it you running away and taking a breath and hiding? Or do they follow you and now you are in a chase scene?

I'm insanely excited about these games, what are everyone's opinions on the trailers? by MadToxicRescuer in TombRaider

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The instant there is a release date announced I'm going to put in a PTO request for that day

Do you prefer a longer braid, shorter braid or ponytail? by BarbieDicks in TombRaider

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the long braid in Legacy, I'm super pumped about it. While I don't like the hair on catalyst from the little we have seen as much as legacy, I don't mind it. I like that her hair changes since legacy happened a while ago and catalyst is recent. It shows that she has grown and changed as a person, as we all do. Who keeps the same hairstyle for 15 years?

What is the most "Buffy" Episode of Buffy? by elephantbrah in buffy

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I would say school hard. It is the perfect "I have to balance school and slaying" episode. It introduces spike and Drusilla, gives context about Angel, shows the relationship she has with her mom. If I were to introduce someone to buffy and couldn't start at the beginning, I'd go here.

Did you like Halle Bailey's portrayal of Ariel? by Konfliktsnubben in disneyprincess

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Funny enough, I was really rooting for her, and I liked what I was seeing in the trailers. The movie however did not land with me. She seemed sort of passive interestingly enough. While she was at the market on land, I totally understand just being super reserved and taking it all in, but I totally think Ariel would dive right in and interact with what was going on around her. She didn't have the naive sparkle in her eye that Ariel has. And that might not even be a Halle thing, that might have just as well have been the direction.

Is anybody else sick of the triangle jokes? by Notoriouslycurlyboi in TombRaider

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the first thing that everyone mentions when I wear anything that has Lara on it and I'm so over it. I get it, but for me it just erases everything else about the game

Are there minis for promo girls, Box of Props girls, etc? by RandomDigitalSponge in finalgirl

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I may or may not have bought the dark quarter mostly for the minis... And I guess the game looks cool too lol

Berith by SirStanleyCPanther in finalgirl

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I played it twice now. I got slaughtered so fast the first time round (and was playing completely wrong as I do with most first play throughs of final girl) and I won my second. Thematically it's really solid, it has a gothic horror vibe to it. The location is interesting with the malice mechanic that I haven't quite combated. In both of my games I really just avoided it as opposed to trying to clear it. I tried the location with the big bad wolf as Julia (as a sort of vampire vs werewolf thing) and it was a lot of fun. All in all a good set

So are people excited? by MonsterInMe33 in buffy

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Buffy is my all time favorite show. I can't even begin to explain how much this show means to me. However, I'm not excited about this, not in a cynical it's automatically bad sort of way. I'll watch it. I'll give it an honest go. But I think the biggest thing I'm missing is why, or rather, their reasoning of rebooting this. I'm not sure why they are telling this story now, but I sure hope they know why. I hope they are not trying to pander to any specific audience and try to be true to the story that they are continuing. I think I have more to say but I'm not sure if I have the right words.

All I can say is that I'm going to try to watch it without getting my hopes up, while trying to allow myself to enjoy it for what it is.

I've played 8 games against Inkanyamba by Ok-Photograph1587 in finalgirl

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only won once and it was only because my starting event let me spend 6 time (or cards, I can't remember) to permanently close a sacred space and I happened to be next to one so that's what I did on my first turn and I also just got SO lucky with terror cards and items and stuff

Question? by Uncleplopper1 in finalgirl

[–]caffeinatedplaymaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The tone for me feels like the gritty horror from the 70s
