Right, but that’s just basically a preorder shopfront, seeing as the game’s development always has and always will be actually funded by Gearbox (obviously, since a proper studio would burn through $1.5 million in no time).

i dont know why they say it supports 3 players, my first game was with 3 players and it barely even functioned! it’s just not enough to foster suspicion properly (or allow the endgame to work), and the enforced sleepover events with such a small, odd number were very punitive as well.

The blood test is in the game! But it’s a rare card draw, and doesn’t reveal the player’s status to EVERYONE, just one other person.

There are pros and cons to the board game space being “smaller” than video games, in the sense that there just aren’t as many walls between the users and creators. The cons are seeing the assholes all the time! The pros are creators being able to just do this.

yes we also cover sneakers and cosplay

He means it was continually above 70, but was spiking at times to 90.

yeah, this is absolutely about promoting unreal engine, not DIRECTLY like we’d think of with ads, but more in just establishing it via this community and its marketplace as an even stronger force than it already is. 

Both of those things can be true at the same time. 

I’ve got a review copy in the mail, so hopefully soon!
