    BOARD GAMES: Need recommendations

    I might be wrong because I did not play either, but Titans is an expansion, not a standalone version, I think.

    Magic the Gathering Arena

    Cool list. I would consider a playset of the vampire dragons. Probably at the cost of Village Rites (you don't play things like Eyetwitch or the zombie that leaves a treasure) and maybe 2 Play With Fire. I agree though that Vampires are tier2. If you want to go aggro MonoG and MonoW are stronegr...

    Codex Review RPG Codex Review: Trials of Fire

    quality != rarity What you wrote at the beginning of your post is true - your number of redraws depends on the quality of your equipment, but not every piece of equipment has a quality stat.

    Incline Disco Elysium - The Final Cut - a hardboiled cop show isometric RPG

    This is decline. Since skills are a part of your personality they should all talk with your voice. I LOVED the fact that a single actor made VOs for both Ancient Reptilian Brain and Limbic System and now they are retconning this :(

    Incline Disco Elysium - The Final Cut - a hardboiled cop show isometric RPG

    DLC would be wonderful news indeed, but I suspect this is something trivial - like finishing Russian translation or something.

    Magic the Gathering Arena

    You got it wrong. The "you control" clause means that you choose what he finds (and you can browse his deck). You can't cast any instants while controlling your opponent because he himself can't cast any instants - he won't receive priority until the searching action concludes. You just...

    RPG Bullshit that's an instant refund/uninstall

    How can this annoy you? Clicking rest is not gameplay so all it does is save you time. Do you also long for unskippable cutscenes and slow animation speed? Unless, of course, the game is on some sort of time limit and resting has to be used as a resource. This is much better because it gives you...

    Magic the Gathering Arena

    To be honest I wrote "OP" because I don't think it is really OP - just a really high power card left in the pool. You could even argue that Bonecrusher Giant is way more OP because not every red deck plays Cleave while all red decks play the giant, but people cut it some slack because the number...

    Magic the Gathering Arena

    My gut feeling tells me that aggro will be the deck to beat as Embercleave seems to be the "OP" card left in Standard. But if you want you can build a control deck full of removal and beat aggro so maybe we will have a healthy meta. In contrast those sweet value midrange cards like Uro and...

    KickStarter Vagrus: The Riven Realms - post-apocalyptic fantasy caravan master RPG - now with Sunfire & Moonshadow expansion

    But does the open world campaign has a story and a main quest to follow or is it just endless play like Battle Brothers?

    Magic the Gathering Arena

    Yeah, Arena is nice and all, but I miss the social aspect of the game too ;-)
