Day 2: Best family game - Azul

Reply in thread

Interesting, I have the complete opposite opinion; it's most strategic at 2, and least strategic at 4. Reason being, at 2, you have a better chance of predicting what the other player will do and can more effectively draft around their likely move/hate draft to screw them over. The ability to do this reduces with more players.

As such, 4 is my least preferred player count as it feels too random, 2 is the most strategic, and 3 is a good balance between the two

Climate activists target jets, yachts and golf in a string of global protests against luxury

I'm not sure why you're being downvoted so much either tbh. I completely support protest, but let's not fuck up everyone's day and potentially kill people for it. Yes, climate change is a genuine threat, but don't risk the people's lives.

If people want to protest, do it in the middle of a city, do it outside a government building etc. There are ways to inconvenience people and get your message across without risking life

'Baldur's Gate 3' Is a Staggering Success and a Once in a Decade RPG

I tried playing bg 1 and 2 about 10 years ago. I put about 40 hours in between them and enjoyed it, but I found it tough going. I've found bg3 way easier to get into and have already far surpassed the hours I put into the original games. On top of what I've already mentioned, the change to fully turn based is a huge improvement on that weird pausable real time used in the previous games
