A hamster a day keeps the board games at bay. Go On Board was kind enough to share a prototype for Path of Destiny, and I played the game multiple times to explore this new dive into the world of The Witcher. I love the card play in this game, so I wanted to sit down and chat about the way players interact with the narrative. Here's a campaign link: gamefound.com/projects/go-on-board/the-witche...

A hamster a day keeps the board games at bay. The last four years have been a wild ride, and I'm grateful for every bit of it because that's why I'm where I am today. Thank all of you, those who have been here from the beginning and those who have just arrived. You're all awesome, and you're why this is so rewarding :) #boardgames #tabletop #devontalkstabletop

A hamster a day keeps the board games at bay. But what if you could have a hamster all day every day by chatting with other like-minded hamsters on Discord? That problem has been solved for you before you even knew it was a problem.

Some Adjustments - Channel Update (Part 2)

Things are busier than ever, but I'm excited about what's to come :) With the new marketing position I now hold, I don't feel comfortable about certain types of content (and I don't think I was really well-suited to that style of content anyways...). So things will change somewhat in terms of what I put out there. I'm still finding my footing on this channel, but I don't want to give up on it. ...

Everdell: The Complete Collection - Unboxing and Overview
I know what you mean about the order tokens wearing down. My favorite game, Starcraft the Board Game has some wear on the order tokens. Luckily it’s only the overmind faction (my favorite and most played faction) tokens that are showing wear and only the face, not the backs. But now I refuse to play until I find a solution before it’s too late. Thanks for the heads up on options to fix that!
Haven’t seen you in some time hope all is ok??
I can’t help but think you and JD would’ve been a way better team in this! Or me and you!! So glad you’re getting to do this, it’s awesome!! Hope you and Amber are doing well!!
This box brings the collector's edition of all expansiones and original Game?
It’s now on BGA in beta
I feel like the first two rounds are sort of lost, why would you make any guesses until the third round?
Well let's see if this 16 hour livestream manifests today.
Glad you resurfaced! Always a pleasure to see your content - hoping you’re definitely feeling better now considering how late I’m watching this.
I’m a huge fan of Zombicide. And Zombicide is about the level 0f complexity I enjoy. Is 6nsiege much more complex?
That playmat is the most confusing playmat to ever be made. Baffling.
Such a shame Mythic Games turned into the worst crap of a s##t company. Would have been interested in a reprint of this game.
Was wondering where you were at with this. Glad you put it on the table. It’s between this War of the ringworm and Scrabble. I cut my loses after the first payment and downgraded, +0-5 and maps. Can I glue the camera pieces together? They look fiddly to set up. I think I will the furniture, but do I need all furniture built that come with each map? Base game just fits with the built furniture. And I still can’t figure out the base rings. They don’t really fit attached in the trays, so beginners would be spending all their time finding who’s who! Why not just use the stickers on the base? Guess I have to play it first to understand. I sometimes line strips of cardboard or the foam from packaging inside the mini trays to give it a bit more strength. Great for trays that hold cards too, as the weight tends to snap or split the trays if you’re not careful.
Great video Devon, sharp quality content, can't wait to see your gameplay ones ! For those interested, there are several posts on BGG on how to fit the all-in in two boxes. Not as detailed as this video, but others options !
Yay videos.
Great u are back 🖤
Nice to see you doing a video.
holy shit, devon made a video?!?!? oh wait it's april 1st
Missed your presence Dev, really enjoyed when you were always in videos with Alex and Meg!
I really appreciate that! I have missed doing videos with them as well :)
Hmm. how much lid lift would you have in the 2nd box if you got rid of the extra cardboard token sheets and the cardboard box storage and just have the trays. Almost seems like it would fit pretty close to the box size.
I think you could get it pretty close, yeah. The concern for me would be how flimsy the vacuum trays are all stacked on top of each other. I wouldn't be comfortable until I get a different storage solution for the minis.
The 3D terrain is not worth the extra 250 guys, you gotta know that and all the Knick knacks too
I missed out on the duel, playmat, 3d colored tokens, and the storage box. Hoping I can find it on ebay for not too much. I have literally everything else though! It's actually a really cool adaptation which is awesome. Feel bad for Mythic Games because their timing to do this was awful, hence the controversy.
Sitting there with head atop hands makes you look weak and submissive. The backwards ball cap makes you look 12.
After the sixth drink I stopped watching. That happened at 3:45. No one wants to watch you drink dude.
Cool story!
Lots of people want to watch Devon drink. You’ve obviously never been to a convention with him.
I’m on and off with siege and I recently picked back up because the new season is coming out. And that’s when I found out they had a board game for it. I was able to get it from someone selling it. It’s cool to see someone who knows the characters while reviewing the game. Nice video. Do you plan on painting them? That’s what I’m excited for
Thanks Devon. Great video.
Pledged the same & still waiting.
I wish I went all in and got that 3D terrain. 🥲
Hope you can get a gameplay video up! Love your collection too. nearly like looking in a mirror, you have good taste haha. Still waiting on Dune war for arrakis in DFW...
Calling forbidden stars dice system "elegant" is a choice haha. I love it, its clever, it bogs the game down tho for sure.
Using proper punctuation/grammar when texting is 🔥.
Awesome video buddy! Can’t wait to see what other content you make for it and definitely want to play with you!
So exciting to see another creator covering this board game who also knows the video game! I didn't see a lot of that during the time when reviews for the prototype were coming out and I think it's key to understanding a lot of why this game works so well.
for supporting ANYTHING Mythic Games, you suck
… Okay
I absolutely love how you're owning "Hey, here's the reality of the situation...it might piss you off. I get it."
Can’t avoid it! Gotta talk about it 🙂
@@DevonTalksTabletop No offense to either of you, but, there is nothing to "own." You guys don't have to own anything here. Let me rant for 2s: Neither if you did anything wrong, and aren't responsible for Mythic, Leo or his need for contributions, let alone him selling IPs to Cmon. It doesn't need to be addressed in an apologetic capacity, just scoff it off, it's not your problem, and if anything, it throws a bone to the thirsty morons who're polluting every single channel in regard to Mythic and these products. Let's just be honest: this isn't hurting Mythic, it's hurting the consumers and creators who paid for this product. They want to make you hurt, and the people who contributed hurt. That's it. I'd be 100% happier with a simple smile and "fuck you" to the haters as you don't give those energy vampires the time of day they want. You paid for the game, got the game, enjoy it, give it your best. Excited to receive mine, too!
@@metafox6240 No offense to you, but people hating Mythic doesn't make them thirsty moronic energy vampires. Some people take it too far, but there are plenty of reasons to be angry with Mythic.
Thanks heaps for this awesome unboxing of the game: thorough, unorthodox and passionate about it, entertaining and exciting for sure ! Thank you so much for your kind words for the team and the gameplay, we are really appreciating, cheers mate ! One of the developers ^^
Of course! Thanks for the opportunity 🙂
Totally agree with you about how its not the developers fault and what they created is a fantastic boardgame, that i would even dare say is better than the video game. Its such a shame that mythic games mismanaged money and i really hope that this will come to retail, but i have a feeling that mythic wont be a company after they finish up with this delivery.
Appreciate you chiming in 😃
That mythic still has the audacity to send out review copies just blows my mind. They blew 13+ Millionen Dollars trough the chimney to get 4 1/2 Games to people the 1/2 of DD at increased cost to those who were willing to pay these costs leaving the others out to dry. I still wonder what broke their neck was it shipping for Joan of Arc, Enchanters, Steamwatchers, Super fantasy brawl the Errata cards? I wouldn't give Leo or Benoit or anyone at mythic the "Was out of their control" pass, they choose to put the money from their new campaigns into the old ones kicking the can down the road. Not mention VAT and shipping they took....I could ramble on but CZcams wouldn't like the language that goes through my mind when I think about mythic.
There are a lot of things to be frustrated about, for sure.
I just wonder how much did it cost MG to ship these advanced copies to 3 YTubers as of now, well in advance of other backers who also paid the "contribution". Was it money that MG could have used to lower the cost of the contribution even a bit?
@@xionchen It's not so much about reducing costs but the marketing campaing behind this. During the DD campaign they said non contributing backer's copies would be held in storage until they found a way to ship them but it's more likely those copies ended up in mythic's own store or on miniature market. This will be the same, overstock will be sold by mythic or another retailer.
@@williamblack6912 It doesn't help to have MG waste money to ship these advanced copies for review. That is money that could have reduce cost somewhere else. This and other bad wasteful decisions are what led them to now. It may not be much but it all adds up. King of Average didn't even paid his contribution for 6: Siege and he got an advance copy. So just for this alone, MG spent money on having 3 advanced copies shipped to YTubers + fronting contribution for one of them. But yes, MG had no intention of sending the games (6: Siege, DD) to any backers if they did not pay the ransom. So if you are going to receive 6:Siege or DD wave 2, then you better check your content throughly as soon as you get them. If there is anything missing or defective, get MG to send you replacements before they sell the extra production copies to make money so they can use it to send copies to YTubers...(assuming MG will even bother replacing missing/defective components)
@@xionchen King's two recent videos about mythic have shown me that he is a shill like every influencer is to some extend and everyone has a pricetag. I think these 3+n copies are negectable in the great scheme of things but it proves my point that mythic lied about almost everything in the last 4 years. It's just exhausting to even think about this I'm tired of this whole thing.
Apologies if I veered off topic throughout the video. I didn't know until afterward, but I was actively developing a fever while filming, lol.
No apologies needed. Your concern for others comes through loud and clear 😊
Thanks :) @@garytheosophilus
Not only is there a Devon sighting but it's on the HOT POTATO that is 6: Siege. I am pretty excited to play somebody else's copy for sure.
also did you keep the game codes or sell them to offset the costs?
Hahaha, happy to appear! And, yes, I sold the skins to recoup some of the cost (I think it was prior to the second payment).
Ah I am bummed I didn't get the 3D tokens now! Great presentation and talk Dev! Keep it up. Get well soon!
Appreciate it! Feeling rough but happy to have edited a video for you all :)
What is this?!?! Did Devon do a video?!?!?! Love it!
I tried!
I am sad that I had to downgrade and lose the 3D terrain. However, I am still glad that something is finally coming after all this time. Hope to see some gameplay videos soon!
I agree on being grateful that there is a game at all on the way :)
Personal opinion here, but I personally am fine with the punchboard furniture, my brain thinks it has more charm than seeing the board game turn into a diorama
Thank you so much for this video, made me aware of the expansion's existence. Will look into it.
I’ve enjoyed your style since your early days, the easy delivery of your thinking is much appreciated. As audience we have a very peculiar relationship with makers - both audience and product. I’d found repeated disappearances of people quite jarring. Thanks for this simple and minimal mention.
Thank you so much for this comment. I really appreciate that, and I have been very grateful for the community that grew around my content and who I've still been able to connect with. I have a Discord that I'm active in if you want to engage with me and other viewers :) Link should be in one of the videos from around this time.
Not a real gamer till yu play this with 8 factions. Also...nice paint job'
😂😂😂 Love you, Devon!!!
Bummer about your christmas! I hope everyone is feeling better now! The answer is you ALWAYS need a holiday from your holidays! Sadly I will not be attending LevelUp ... some day though! Have fun!!!
Happy new Year! Would love to come overseas... it's going to be tough on such short notice (taking days off). But wish you all the best and fun. Cheers to all, Sebastian.
As a certified authentic hu-man, I am trying to figure out a way to get there.
Hahah deal
