I am tempted, but need to see as much as possible before I can commit. I liked the Witcher, but there wasn't enough of a game for me to enjoy long term and I sold it off.
great channel
Can this be played with without a timer? You mentioned a time handicap for new players, what happens if you remove the timer altogether? As a huge Cyberpunk fan, I want this game but the timed nature of this is putting me off.
Only backing if it has a non-timer mode.
I see Maladum on shelf. Will you cover it soon?
This game is crazy expensive. Is it worth $200 after shipping and VAT (for just base game)?
Great that you had some much fun with the game, and there is more since you only played the demo!
Thank you for your kind words and all the feedback/suggestions!
Can you play multiple characters – 2 players with 2 characters each?
I hate to be that guy – this company is the essence of Kickstarter FOMO and bling. Puddle deep mechanics, with lots of production value (I present to you exhibit A – a stretch goal is a sleeve you can put over your box to make the cover male or female). I don't know how this isn't being called out by these YouTubers, yet they'll berate other companies and games for doing similar (or using apps in games, etc.). By the time the campaign is done I'll wager it'll be a $400-$500 all-in that looks nice without much else other than a timer gimmick that wears off after 5-10 hours of play.
Really? This seems like a generic story driven dungeon crawler to me without any unique mechanic.
Sometimes, and I'm looking at Cthulhu death may die, something that initially looks very simplistic and lacking depth can turn out to be intensely fun to play. Unfortunately, I tend to pass on those games initially.
What's the solo like?
$500 for a beer and pretzel game? Is this Zombicide cyberpunk?
Orange and brown if too close is terrible UX. Pick something else! I have a game where I never ever take out one of the characters because they are so close in color to an other one that is just ridiculous. Hope they fix it because the game looks amazing otherwise!
Could you do a experienced review of the ttrpg called F.A.T.A.L
Knew this guy would be sold on it lol.
How much was the paid review from your buddies at GOB?
Not wasting my money on this mediocre beat the timer game. Cyberpunk 2077 theme slapped on that doesn’t reflect the video game.
I’ve played the video game twice and can’t remember one mission I had to do that had a timer attached to it.
This is purely miniature fomo. Won’t be long before people are bored of the actual game.
Backed, but I may not hold my pledge. Timers aren’t fun, and if the game falls apart if you have a chance to play normal turns, then I worry that there isn’t enough there to make it a satisfying experience.
am I the only one who gets kinda stressed out by even mentioning timer generated gameplay? Me and my buddies usually like to play the cards to the most of their strangth. What if sb gets slightly paralysed by the decision like 2 minutes it's not much. I believe it would fuel the blame for taking too much time on your turn. Also I hate app games… I like my mediums to stay separate.
I do not understand the hype for this game, which I believe is solely due to the IP, when there are so many better games in this genre.
Everyone seems to be raving about this game but I still find myself skeptical. I feel like I need to see a real playthrough, with real players not the developers and board game reviewers because to me it simply looks too complicated to function in real time. I know I could handle it and enjoy it, but I have been playing board games for years I'm concerned instead for my wife who had ADHD, or my son who is only ten, or that one gamer in my group who always asks who's turn it is when everyone else at the table knows its his.
Point is this game looks good but I'm concerned that's mostly marketing. Without the ability to cheat the app like you mentioned I don't think this will support a playthrough with many real groups because most people don't play with groups made up entirely of board game experts.
to be fair, the weapons being "weak" thing is pretty accurate. hacks are way more over powered in the game too
I really like this type of review video from your channel. Thanks for all the effort.
Not a fan of a timer at all, I have enough stress all day where I have to make split second decisions on the fly. This one may not be for me. And just having people constantly press the timer to begin, press the timer to stop, look at the app, press the timer to start, press the timer to stop, repeat for each round…damn…and of course the friends with terrible dexterity playing in a hurry due to the timer knocking over the pieces, scattering the cubes, etc…ugh
So this is an 8/10?
best review of this game by a mile. great job!
You are the best board game reviewer and news breaker! The GOAT
