Tks for the video ! It includes the expansión and the solo mode ?
@LifeofaBoardGamer
@LifeofaBoardGamer 20 дней назад
This is an old video. I uploaded this 7 years ago (man I was young and good looking back then). There was no expansion at that time, only base game. You want to look for 2023 release called 'Complete Edition'. That one has expansion and solo mode in it. Not sure if there is a version with miniatures like mine.
@cr1ses
@cr1ses 24 дня назад
Huh? Why did you skip the asymetric factions? Would like to see the differences.
@LifeofaBoardGamer
@LifeofaBoardGamer 24 дня назад
To be honest, not sure. Definitely oversight on my part. It is integral part of the expansion. In short, all of them have persisten and unlockable powers on the board. Peristen ones are usually tied to a specific action (i.e. if you do this you get extra that) and unlockable ones are more like whn you do something in the game like taking a dice of certain color or you get a card from any effect...stuff like that.

Although it is balance along the entire video, The sound is SOooo low. I was hoping that after 5 years this technical issue will get fixed. Thanks anyway.
@LifeofaBoardGamer
@LifeofaBoardGamer Месяц назад
It actually is resolved. But sometimes I forget to turn o the Blue Yeti that I'm currently using and then you get camera sound. It is not great like Yeti but it is OK so I decided to publish video. You happened to stumble upon one of few that had that mic not being turned on issue. I try to be consistent but only consistency on this channel is that I upload a video every 5 days (sometimes even more as a bonus content). I have not broke a streak since 2022. That got to be worth something, right. :)
@Why-Ron75
@Why-Ron75 Месяц назад
@@LifeofaBoardGamer I appreciate the reply and wish you and your channel all the best. My suggestion is... If you are already putting efforts in producing, recording, uploading and editing a video - put some extra effort into polishing it by ensuring that the sound has a good quality. (Shouldn't it be a quite basic principle when messing around with V/A..? Isn't it an uncompromisable anchor..? It's unfair to expect people's appreciation when such a sound quality might feel unrespectful. Uploading a video every 5 days is quite an amazing achievement. Nevertheless, I always believed in "quality over quantity". Good luck!
@LifeofaBoardGamer
@LifeofaBoardGamer Месяц назад
At this point this is more of a hobby of mine (something I do for fun) than an actual work. So I let myself slip from time to time. I see no harm in that. I think none of my regular viewers would mind occasional (very rarely) bad sound quality. But I respect your point of view and you have some solid advice. Much appreciated and I'll definitely improve on the quality. Sound and picture. :)
