Maybe it's not quite what you're looking for, but this cover is a bad fit because it looks like a cereal box and the game is not about eating cereal.

Le han enseñado UN solo ángulo, el único que podía dejar duda 🤣

También hay que decir que el año pasado Mbappé seguramente fallaba el mano a mano. Está muy fino ahora mismo.

Mexican here approves of cooking the pork that way! Love tacos like these.

Had a similar realization. I specially can’t believe I used to get on the subway without a mask.

Yeah! The development/release of Duke Nukem Forever was something I talked about often with friends in the 00s. But then it finally came out and was kinda bad, a lot of people had already forgotten about it, and everyone else moved on right away.

Love that edition of Traumfabrik!
We had a little trophy with a bowtie the last time my group organized a Kniziathon

This is how I play with my family and how I introduce the game to new people. But it’s near impossible to convince established groups that it’s better this way.

Maybe a live and let live policy is preferable to war.

I’m pleased with the outcome of The Ace of Spades debacle. The game shouldn’t have ever been printed as is (and that’s on devir) but at least they took swift action. Reading comments on devir’s many local IG profiles shows me why it was printed tho. People in LatAm and Spain really just don’t care 🫤

Sisko meeting them and thus becoming an emissary for the Bajorans is one of the greatest setup plot points in any tv series.

Respect the hustle! Al mismo tiempo el hecho de que esté escribiendo y participando en la producción de los spinoff es como la pista más grande de que ya no puede/sabe como terminar los libros. Pero la gente siempre es como “🤬 por qué george no escribe el 6to libro!?”

Siempre lo comento con amistades. Aún en el caso que el señor termine el 6to en los próximos años, es imposible que termine el 7mo, se le salió de control.

People from those other countries know. It’s really not an excuse for them. The sad (and angering) truth is that both here in LatAm and in Spain there’s people that just don’t care.

*sigh*
Devir's predatory practices in LatAm markets already make a lot of us gamers down here dislike them.
BUT this is just on a whole other level...

They’ve now posted a “justification” which indeed shows they think they’re being bullied and “just let people enjoy the magic” 🤦🏻‍♂️

I played it yesterday after some friends got it for me from Korea. I had no idea you were going to release it in the US! Gah, I’d love to try out the new stuff.

It’s ridiculous but has everything to do with ads. Both TV and in the stadium (powerade sponsored cooling break).

I think any non-American sees this as the most American thing possible.

In Spanish we use “maripostear”, a portmanteau of mariposa (butterfly) and postear (anglicism of posting). I think it’s lovely.

This Guilty Land and Reign of Witches.
The thesis and presentation of This Guilty Land is something I wish other historial/war games did.
Friends tend to like NorPac the most. Great intro to train games.
