Haha I think they made that comment almost exactly, like 30yrs ago felt like yesterday. So I think that’s exactly what it was. The author also referred to himself as being in the second wave.

Awesome, thank you! Will check it out.

This looks really interesting. What’s your favorite part of the game, or what should I know if I’m interested?

An excellent point, thanks for dropping some future history :)

Hit me up on discord if you ever want to talk YouTube, trade some feedback, etc…

I really appreciated your date night comment. Although I will say that my wife and I are both fairly hard core gamers, and that kind of interaction is still a non starter for us.

Oh I wasn’t trying to make some statement of fact. Just share my feelings and observations on the subject.

So I will take your word for it as someone with more experience.

Kind of feels like you don’t want or are not trying to understand at this point. Lol

I think those that cover games often have a different perspective and see beyond the bend in the road.

The issue is unless you have a very large and loyal audience or what you are saying feels true to the average person, no one is going to listen.

It’s an unfortunate reality.

I think that’s everyone’s point, there is an objective metric for the 1 scale on BGG. Literally 2-10 are just your feelings on the game, 1 is something else.

“Clearly broken” and “defies description as a game” are fairly objective metrics.
