You captured all of my thoughts in a nutshell, the good, the bad, the annoying ^^ can’t wait to see more videos in that series 🥰 (hopefully not too much about the war-games 🤣 love you both and the diversity & humour you both bring to us, but well, preferences 😅 However, I‘ll watch it anyways 😉)
For me personally, I ALWAYS include prelude & Venus – so many great cards! 🤩
Just a quick thought on AI art. If you're an independent publisher you might struggle finding the right artist for the job immediately so you start off the Kickstarter with open-source images or craft your own rather quickly through some commands. However, when a game turns out to be a hit, and one of the consistent critiques is the use of lackluster, unintuitive art, that publisher would do well to invest in actual human artists and help people pay their bills, as a form of socio-economic ethics. There is no excuse that there wouldn't be artists around the world with a passion for drawing space crafts and futuristic environments.
Besides, the visual art of a game is married to the theming and the mechanics, and usually adds to the excitement. Could anyone imagine any Game of Thrones board game with a Pokémon art style? Perhaps, but it doesn't convey the dark grittiness of the setting like the tv series and the books. I think of Stonemaier games who hired very specific artists for games like Scythe and Wingspan, and for me they are a large part of why I enjoy bringing the game to the table. Because it's pretty to look out, gives you something to do in your downtime 😉
This was an enjoyable video! Thank you! 🤩 Just days ago, I played the digital TM tutorial on my computer. I am curious about this board game because I would like to take a next step in my board gaming. But I have to say, the art doesn't look good at all. 😅I don't know if AI can save it… If it is so successful, why not pay graphic designers to come up with something that is nice too look at for hours on end?! 🤯😓
Prelude is mandatory.
Dune War for Arakis next plz 😃
Spirit Island, Dune: Imperium or Clank would be grate.
So well produced Video!
I really like Terraforming Mars. But Ark Nova suits my tastes better providing very similar experience
they made dual layer player boards, it's a must
Normally al big fan: this video has so many cuts? (If thats the right word) I got tired wachting it. Sorry!
love this new series and format!
Next Spirit Island!
I love this topic! More videos with deep insights and info about iconic games, please!
Yay! Great new series and sooooooo well done!

Have a good night & a great weekend!
Such a great video as always!
Waiting for Terraforming mars the war game. I'm sure Janis G will agree 👍🏻
Next Arc Nova
The video is amazing! The game… not my cup of tea 🙂
Love the deep dive! Next maybe Eldritch horror, Dune Imperium?
Truly overhyped, just Like Dune Imperium 😂 Hegemony, thats a good Game!
Each week I look forward to watching your videos 🙏 so good
wow. this video is sooo good and much fun!
I think you should capitalize on making something similar for Puerto Rico as the new campaign is coming closer.
This could be a good way to cover more «older» games that still hold up.
Agricola, Carcassone. Modern classics.
Please continue with this format, love it!! and please continue with Scythe…

This new editing style is a bit too flashy and makes it harder to watch
