lets gooo!! blue short haired childhood friend!!! surely this time will be the one. i believe! (not really, but i want to). going up against an at-first icy long black hair. i dont want to say its a foregone conclusion but maybe the true harem are the friends we made along the way. also maybe its a really common name but i think we had a genki himari last season too. its even the same VA, i love it but its so over

im thinking shes actually not joking about being in an arranged marriage for political purposes. she might just be playing it off and not wanting to put the pressure on mc to feel obligated thinking he has to save her or something

The episode makes it seem like Mia wasnt paying attention in saintess school when they were covering the whole "summon pillars, set up barrier to weaken monsters" thing, when Philia's departure led to the number of magical beasts go unchecked.

Unrelated ramblings: I like that the second prince is aware of the problematic nature of the whole buying a saintess thing. Judging by how her former kingdom treated her, I initially thought saintesses were in a living force field battery kinda scenario. Also does the Second Prince have the Dead Mom Hairstyle? Mia gives me early Lacus Clyne vibes for some reason.

the kickstarter (~$50, 8 days left)

  • does not contain the base game. only the latest expansion and optional gold coins
  • this is the 3rd expansion and supposedly last (source: trust me bro)
    • excl. the upgrade pack from 2e to 2.1e
    • there is supposedly another game planned in the Obsession universe which use some of the tiles in Obsession (source)
  • will be available retail, no kickstarter exclusives it seems

besides having been interested in the game and theme for a long time, i thought the video was an interesting watch going over the issues with how boardgame kickstarters are these days

 

recently, it was announced one-time only deluxified version of Food Chain Magnate (FCM) would be held on Gamefound (campaign not launched yet) featuring a different art style than the infamous Spotter Spellen game known for its retro yet functional graphic design which some felt was so bad refused to play it despite it receiving critical acclaim

  • the deluxe by Lucky Duck Games on Gamefound will run concurrently with sales of the original on Splotter (prices are predicted to cost no less than the original)
  • there are plans to introduce deluxe version of the FCM expansion
  • there will not be an upgrade pack for owners of the original version of FCM
  • English only deluxe, because of distribution rights
  • this isnt the first time a Splotter game received an art refresh, Bus received an English only 20th anniversary in 2019. with another title, Ur: 1830 BC getting a re-release pending a popularity vote

meanwhile unrelatedly, a fan-made laser-cut 3D standee tiles was also released on Game Crafters earlier this month for those wanting to deluxify their copy while retaining the original's unique aesthetic appeal

question for all you Beeple and Fediversers - im curious which style of deluxe do you prefer if any? the Lucky Duck Games deluxe, or the fan-made laser-cut 3D standee tiles
