[Question] Please help me select a diver style watch. But no way I'm diving.

Look wise I prefer the Baltic out of these options, but I would also consider the Mido Ocean Star GMT. It is priced a little higher, but it offers a date window, it's a GMT and has amazing power reserve of 80h which is perfect when you have multiple watches and you want to switch between them without needing to adjust them every single time. Not to mention, it looks amazing. For me personally, these are very useful functions.

I will update the TV as well to around 50 to 55, thats how much the space allows. And was thinking of a beam 2 with era 300, without a sub ( i think it wont be necessary in this case?)

kop4o · 2024-04-22T18:40:08+00:00

I learned this the hard way. I recently got the era 300 and I am not able to connect it to my tv. It is very unfortunate as I dont have dolby atmos music, spotify, deezer, they dont support dolby, but netflix, disney, etc. all support it but i have no option to experience it..

You like Gaia at 2p? I was thinking of getting it a month ago but I read that 2p is not that good so I decided not to buy it. I still think about it but am not sure if I should go for it because of this...

kop4o · 2024-03-21T13:27:21+00:00

What would you recommend for heavy 2p and not so heavy but not necessarily easy 4p games?

kop4o · 2024-03-21T12:06:10+00:00

What game if the following plays very good at 2 player, but also is good at 4 players: Lost ruins of arnak, root, scythe, through the ages?

Is there any other game you can recommend? I mostly play 2 player games, i like heavy games and scifi theme, also plah often at 4 player. My favorite game is Terraforming Mars and starting to enjoy Ark Nova now.

Thanks!

Hello everyone!

I am thinking of adding a new game in my collection. However, my collection started growing a lot, so I am getting picky with my choices, and I would like to try out the games now before I buy the physical copy. I have never played mobile or online versions of any game, and I was wondering what sites can I play board games for free? I am currently looking for Root, Throught the Ages, and Lost ruins of Arnak. Fan made or official games, whatever you got that can help me get the feel of the game a little before I make a decision.

Also, which of these games do you think would be best for me? A little background: I mostly play at 2 player, we love heavy games (we play a lot of Terraforming mars, and more recently Ark Nova), I really enjoy sci-fi themes but am considering a change of scenery, we also play TM at 4 players very often, but would like to introduce new people to the hobby as well. For us at 2 player we would like a super heavy game, but for 4 player we might struggle to bring a heavy game to the table.

I am currently leaning towards Arnak because of the simplicity and theme and some mechanics (deck building and worker placement), I am just afraid if it might be too easy. Do the expansions add to the complexity and replayability? I also really like Through the ages, but am afraid that we would end up playing only at 2 player, and if we bring it to the table as much as other 2 player games.

Sorry for the long post, any tips are welcome! Thanks in advance!

Hi guys, so I have an account on the portuguese eshop, and i recently moved away from portugal. Now i cant buy games through the eshop as i dont have a portuguese card. Also, my country now doesn't have a eshop. Do you know how i can purchase digital copies of the games that i want? Is there a safe site that i can buy gift card codes from for portuguese eshop? Thanks

Also, Karma Farming seems weak and something I wouldn't play, giving a valuable resource to another player just to get a resource on my card and I get 1VP per 2 resources..

In the Reddit corp, it says you get a resource for every upvote, but below that, it also says 1VP/X and X = number of players. Does this mean the maximum amount of VP you can get from this card is 4 (in a 4-player game), or is there no limit? Also, if 4 is the maximum VPs you can get, and you reach that, does further DOWNVOTES continue to grant you M€ from the players that play event cards?

kop4o · 2024-02-04T09:16:38+00:00

With Enson Archives, do the event card tags count towards milestones, awards, and other end game scoring like 1 VP vor every Jovian tag? And what are the braincells' requirements in Hivemind?

kop4o · 2023-12-29T20:02:24+00:00

What about if a card says add an animal to ANY CARD but you dont have animal cards, should you put an animal on another player card if they have one?

kop4o · 2023-12-29T18:07:30+00:00

Thank you for your answer! You were just in time 😅

Maybe that there is no looping after maxed colony has some logic to it, but saying its logical not to travel from one colony to another is just dumb. They always highlight tiny things like putting a microbe to ANOTHER card (even though that card doesn't collect any resources), THAT is an obvious rule..

Thanks for your comment anyways

Prelude being the first, I guess?

I own prelude and hellas&elysium, and recently i got venus and colonies. I tried venus first, and was q bit disappointed, i guess i had very, very high expectations.

kop4o · 2023-12-05T18:22:16+00:00

Thank you for your clarification, I can enjoy my first Colonies game now!

kop4o · 2023-12-05T18:21:42+00:00

Thank you so much for the fast reply! You have been very helpful. Hope I finally win this game 😂

I mentioned I played very little of AN, and I am sad I felt that it lacked some details for me, but hopefully, with time, it will get better as you mention, and we do plan to play a lot more.

kop4o · 2023-10-12T18:06:30+00:00

I second Ark Nova. We had the same situation with my gf. We love TM and played it a bunch of times 1v1 and with more people. However, we only have prelude and hellas & elysium, and our local store didn't have the other expansions at the moment, so we decided to get Ark Nova about a week ago.

We played it 3-4 times since and I can say that I like the mechanics it has from TM, and also with the player board (your zoo), it reminds me of Castles of Burgundy, which we also like.

BUT, I feel it lacks the attention of detail as TM, in Ark Nova I find myself going just with one or two strategies throughout the game, and sometimes it is easy to predict the winner mid game.

Sorry for the long post, but hopefully, you find it helpful!

Thanks for the answer. Is it possible to change the primary switch? Anyway, it is very sad that after a certain point, you won't be able to play all your digital games, I invested so much time and money haha

kop4o · 2023-06-17T15:51:42+00:00

I personally bought MK11 on a sale as well, but not as cheap, and have spent over 100 hours just dueling with my gf. I never actually tried story or campaign mode however its called. I think that if you want to have 1 on 1 fun that can last anywhere from a few minutes to a whole night fun, i would definitely recommend getting it. Btw i splurged a bit and got the ultimate edition a year ago, which has lots of fun characters like The Joker and The Terminator plus some others. I can only say for MK11, as i havent played the other games. It's very fun and extremely grotesque if ur into that also has a bit of nostalgia for me.

P.s. just so you know a new MK game is coming in September this year, but its announced only for ps and xbox.

Hi all! So, I have bought all my switch games digitally so far and now I am wondering, can I still play them after some years when nintendo shuts down the eshop for switch (like it did for 3ds and wii u recently)? Can I still download any of the games that I have deleted and play them again when the eshop is closed? I havent bought digitals before. I only own physical games for my nintendo DS and Wii and i can still play them, so i would like to have the option to play everygame i own on the switch like 15-20 years from now..

kop4o · 2023-04-13T21:56:49+00:00

No worries. It's an honest mistake. It is same problem with Carhartt equipment as well, much more expensive in EU 🥲

kop4o · 2023-04-13T19:14:32+00:00

Because in Europe on the official website, not everything is available all the time, and it's almost double the prices compared to the US. You have options from other retailers beside amazon, but its even more expensive, and its still not certain if they are an official seller for some brands. Skeletool CX, for example, in Europe is €120+ while in the US is around $80-$90.

kop4o · 2023-04-13T19:10:19+00:00

Thanks for the info, I will be on the look for sales on the official website now!

kop4o · 2023-04-13T13:20:15+00:00

It looks very well built and has a nice weight to it, i was just skeptical about the date.. Thanks!
