(Dare I even ask what happened?)
There was alcohol involved. Alliances were made, alliances were broken, butts got hurt. It's a hell of a game. TBF the friendship was already rocky. This was the coffin nail. Him spilling red wine on my new white cloth couch and blaming me for having a white couch didn't help.
I didn't realize that it wasn't digital all this time. Digital is the only way to play such titles, haha.
I love playing big, involved boardgames and their designs are fantastic but trying to teach it to someone and do all of the admin of resolving moves can make it feel like a chore.
For example, I've played Nemesis precisely once. It took HOURS to get through because of learning all the rules etc. Loved it, love the design, would be freakin' perfect if there was a digital version which automates the faff.
I want to like to play complex games these days but everyone is distracted as it is and spending hours to learn the game only to forget it by the next time you play is exhausting
Simply bully your friends into having weekly mandated game time.
