...

hey, here's one i've played many times, both from owning it and because it's on BGA and is a quick one to knock out with my wife

i had some stuff partially typed but my phone lost it. here are my main pros/cons of VC -

pros
- the production is wonderful
- the theme makes a ton of sense in many regards and is linked closely with mechanics
- it's accessible because you only have to read the cards you actually draw instead of evaluating a marketplace
- the grande worker also makes the worker placement less punishing
- the extra bonuses when you play with more than 2 players are great
- the wakeup track is really neat
- seasons are a good idea

cons
- in the 2p game it sucks not having the 2
- turn order is doubly important due to having two seasons
- not having a card marketplace makes the game very luck-based
- other than the bonus powers, the worker placement is fairly uninspired
- the game is not very "tightly" designed - the way the money economy works in particular is kind of shoddy (super-important early; later in the game you have almost nothing to spend it on)

overall i feel it has a lot of great ideas and makes them super-accessible. i kind of resent its popularity because i think the execution and tightness of the design are sacrificed in some ways for that overhead ease (e.g. no mitigation of the swingy cards).

tuscany (just the board) adds complexity which is nice and gives some more options on actions you can do when you've otherwise run out of useful stuff to do, which is also nice. i like thematically that there are four seasons. but it amplifies one of the bigger annoyances of VC, which is the importance of being first - now you're first in all four seasons.

it's also just more complex than "base" viticulture and isn't available online, so i've just played base a lot more than tuscany

the teams that have beaten the magic are the bucks, celtics, and heat, with 3 of those 4 on the road. don't exactly think it's cause for doom and gloom

*checks box score*

good lord 32 free throw attempts

i believe wilt had 32 FTA in his 100 point game

i looked at the box score when giannis had 54 and it was mid fourth and they were up 14 or so. did not expect him to stay in, but it makes sense given indy's offense. definitely didn't expect him to sail by 60 though.

oh, this is a ghost stories re-issue? i thought GS was... okay. only played it once and i'm not sure i felt any real sense of accomplishment during it. felt kind of punishing and workman-like. but then, i suppose a lot of co-op games are kinda like that?

the 3x3 map is fantastic though. just enough spatial puzzle to go with the punching-in-the-face-iness of it all

meh.

i find drafting quite exhausting in games that aren't pure drafters. even stuff like it's a wonderful world feels obtuse to me

maybe it was specifically the whaling that felt agonizingly long for machi koro 1. game's supposed to be fast, so why is someone's turn taking 3 minutes?

space base is a better game but i think i probably need to play it in person to appreciate it - on BGA the icons are overwhelming and i've never bothered to read them enough to get good at intuiting them

i've only played photosynthesis once and i quite enjoyed it. very clever design. but i also can definitely see how it would run out of stuff to show you pretty soon. i have no interest in owning it, though i would probably be willing to play it a few more times

codenames is one of the GOAT party games. would have it easily higher than a lot of the heavy games left, though i'm not sure there are many party games left on this list, so that's probably fitting. lately it has barely gotten to the table at all, but that's largely a function of my gaming groups disintegrating since the start of the pandemic

i liked machi koro 1 a decent amount when it first came out and i felt averse to grindy euros. it's still ok.

does machi koro 2 have a static marketplace or dynamic? the dynamic marketplace from the mk1 harbor expansion was insufferable and made the game drastically worse for md

AFFO doesn't even really feel like a multuplayer game, so i totally get what you're saying about getting blocked, though i've never felt that pain. i remember norwegians being really good and many swear by never playing without it

That might be the worst chapter of Hajime no Ippo.

Definitely the worst I can remember.
