    Thanks for the playthrough! After learning Netrunner recently I was hoping for a bit more going on with the hacking. Maybe in an expansion? Turns moved quickly enough and I think I like the action selection system. I feel like more could be happening here, so maybe there will be some expansion there too. I’m curious about the epilogues with new rules. Definitely piqued my interest. I hope the drones get upgraded to minis since units = plastic would be a bit easier to see for tracking domination.

Mindclash in their estimates even said that shipping hasn't been that big a deal. It's a little more right now but nothing that would cause them to raise shipping much at all.

Basically your value proposition is $150 for the game and 20 for shipping but CMON only has to pay KS 10% on the $110. Seems shifty to me, I’m not backing it.

    As far as those egderunners are concerned, they're taking some liberties with the source material. With the possible exceptions of Jackie Welles and T-Bug (depending on whether the board game is supposed to take place before or after the events in CP2077), none of the ones I saw in the video should really be available to hire as mercs.

  • @samharkin9981
    @samharkin99812 жыл бұрын

    Most board games with a rectangular board, orientate text and symbology vertically along the shorter sides of the board. Here, they've orientated this text, cards and tracks along the longer sides of the board. So every player has to read on a right angle, upside down or from a distance, all the boards information. And given the area control aspect of this is more conceptual, the board is far larger than it needs to be, to cater to the minis available. Poor design

    Game kinda misses the point from my perspective. The themes of alienation and corporate exploitation are why cyberpunk persists 40 years on. The fantasy is you playing a netrunner railing against the corporations like militech or arasaka. I dont know who wants to step into the shoes of the gangs fighting for control of the streets.

    This looks pretty lame. Story cards are lame. Not liking combat, just pick a card and whoever has more gun icons wins. Really, that’s it? Roll two d6’s on a net run that only goes to eight. Odds are always in favour of success. Don’t think anyone even failed a net run roll? When someone did they had a re-roll anyway. Not sure about that mechanic. Not really excited about this at all. The game looks like it was rushed.

    The combat doesn't work like that, it has dual areas of consideration: who kills and who scores Street Cred. Killing enemy units doesn't mean you'll score Street Cred, on the other hand you can score Street Cred in a Firefight triggered by an opponent where you lose unit. Every Combat upgrade card is also unique (no duplicates) and they also add an effect that alter the Firefight rules. What do you mean "that's it"?

    Net run is just push your luck with probabilities being in favor of players, otherwise nobody would ever net run. Voodoo boys get a reroll on failed net runs. Story cards introduce alternative win (or sometimes even lose) conditions. Just like Ankh scenarios, actually way more diverse in that regard than Ankh. I thought combat was lame and often would end in ties too when I saw the starting deck each player gets. But there are about 60 combat cards, each one is unique and about half way into the game everyone has a unique deck of cards. The game does feel a little cheap in component department, there are certainly some QOL issues with inserts, but nothing that gets in the way of getting tabled. I would definitely table this more than Dwellings, Rising Sun or Scarface. Each time we played, no matter the amount of players, it was always under 2 hours with explaining rules.
