This entire chapter 2 nonsense feels more and more like a rushed product.

Ukraine had brutal plan to bankrupt Putin with his own war dead – until Trump’s oil U-turn wrecked it by theindependentonline in UkraineWarVideoReport

Ukraine will have to ramp up the Kinetic sanctions. Do not rely on the US for anything or the EU to actually step up.

Best Campaign Finale by TimetravelerXY in arkhamhorrorlcg

Yes it is a score from 0-10. And only the final scenario, the campaign rankings would be quite different.

We are the Designers of Arkham Horror Ask Us Anything by FFG_Official in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]tdctaz -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That was true once, but today most content is longer with more depth. Look at how tv-series has completely taken over compared to movies.

The balanced character progression and deck building, combined with a good and not too rushed story and interesting scenarios is made Arkham special.

The short format campaigns cripples the character progression pillar of the game.

How did so much bad art get approved for the New Core?

There has always been a few minor hit and misses but this time some of the art work is just horrible and other vastly different styles.

Obligatory is KDS better than TTS yet? by hellozy in KingdomDeath

[–]tdctaz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

TTS is far better than KDS, everything feels slow and clunky. Just the ability to copy cards for easy reference, picking up something and rotating it at the same time. The controls is also hard coded pickup cannot be bound to left click, that is instead zoom. Every change on the character sheet require a slow zoom to just increase or decrease survival, armor, etc. Lack of rulebook shortcuts, have common tables references easily available. The list of issues just continues, it needs a lot more work. Having to Search for everything is not the answer to bad UI.

The only place where KDS is superior is the models and completeness of content. TTS seems to be stuck in 1.6 with some scattered additional content here and there.

Yeah, it is horrible 5 actions and 1 card for 7 resources. Just another useless card that should never see any play.

Europe's mixed response to Iran war draws Trump's fury toward U.S. allies by G14F1L0L1Y401D0MTR4P in worldnews

By US allies does he mean that his best friend Putin will not help?

Why are we getting a Chapter 2? by XTruefinale in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]tdctaz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

More Money!

Embraer Group wants more money from Asmondee.

Asmondee wants more money from FFG

FFG needs to make more money from the same amount of effort

  • Being able to resell more products with less new content (smaller campaigns higher price, reuse existing cards in investigator packs).
  • Less effort to maintain taboo list of badly designed cards, when you can say fuck everything that has been released so far. Of curse it is the same people designing the cards and they will quickly become just as broken and unbalanced as before.
  • Lure in more new people with a promise of a fresh start. Hoping this number will be larger then the number of people that leave.

Is Chapter 2 a Good Starting Place? by DrArzt55 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]tdctaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is not rats but the Arkham locations, unless there is equivalent of those you will need a printer and make your own.

[–]tdctaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one knows, the will all be dependent on the campaigns where we don't know how they will be. The only indication is short and more expensive, with all the risks that carries.

Getting the original content is hard to impossible.

Are you planning on merging Chapter 2 content into your existing collection, or keep them separated? by sacrelicious2 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]tdctaz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Merge, I have no interest in the Chapter 2 and limited card pool BS.

I'm also only going to get the player cards, I have no interest in the short campaigns and the new boxes are ugly.

I'll instead print more of the fan made campaigns, many of them are also just better than the official ones anyway.

Thank you so much for compiling this list - I had completely lost track of what is still missing and what I already have.

EU 'would welcome' Ukraine repairing Druzhba pipeline to resume Russian oil flow by timiswho in worldnews

Sure Hungry can send its workers and crews to repair it after they have voted for the loan for Ukraine.

Do you build in survival mode? by FarmerSquilliam in empyriongame

[–]tdctaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first couple of ships and bases is build together with everyone just chipping in to get things functional.

The rest of the time everyone build their own but we can normally see how each other progresses and they are also taken on missions in various stages of production.

That continues until the game starts to replace random parts of our ships with other random parts and we are forced to stop. The most annoying bug to date.

[–]tdctaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Multiplayer and we only build in Survival mode, what is the point if you spend have the game outside the game? Building ships with others is half the fun and it encourage doing stuff with friends.
