The worst is they have 51 minis, that look practically the same. Muscles, leathers, skulls, for all the different factions. Can't wait to see someome paint them in browns and tans.

Just watched the full video from the Hate KS page. Kinda on the gruesome side but the gameplay looks pretty sweet and unique. Odd too since you're fighting 1v1 and the other players are just hanging out waiting for their turn then? Dunno how that will work but I'll hold off for a bit on deciding until the directions show up. Agreed that the minis are really fucking busy and look awfully similar. I'll probably back it since at the least it could be resold for cost.

It's like Randy Savage wrote the script.


Now, people are making fun of CMON's HATE promo video on Reddit. Too funny!

I'm not one for the Reddit crowd, but damn. That's funny.
I showed the KS video to my wife. We had a good chuckle.
And yet, I'm still interested...
I'm also drunk.

its kind of like R vs PG13 movies. there looks to be some neat ideas, but it self limits its audience pretty severely.

Nemesis needs to officially mark the last time Awaken Realms can play the "we are so surprised that people want to buy our games" card. Their lack of preparation in stretch goals caught them during Lords of Hellas, and it has happened again.

These are the two funniest parodies of HATE:

Patchwork

In a post-apocalyptic world where buttons are currency and everyone is a bit chilly...only you AND THE ASSHOLE ACROSS THE TABLE can warm up a little BY MAKING THE BEST FUCKING QUILT YOU CAN.

RESOURCES ARE FUCKING SCARCE. Pay buttons to collect tattered scraps of shitty fabric, and ADD THEM TO YOUR FUCKING QUILT. Sometimes you might get more fucking buttons by doing so.

BUT WATCH OUT, ASSHOLE!
TIME IS ALWAYS TICKING. If you run out of buttons, it's going to take a LONG FUCKING TIME to get them back, and you MAY NEVER. FINISH. YOUR. QUILT.

DON'T LEAVE ANY HOLES, DICKHEAD!
OR ELSE YOU LET THE AIR IN AND IT WON'T KEEP SHIT WARM AS WELL, PROBABLY.

PATCHWOOOORK: MAKIN' QUILTS AND KICKIN' ASS.

Edit: You think I'm gonna come in here all humble, edit my comment and thank you for the gold? GUESS AGAIN, SHITHEAD.


and

In a world where the Emperor has ordered you to grow a lush garden filled with not 1, NOT 2, BUT

3 COLORS OF BAMBOO YOU'VE BEEN FUCKING WAITING FOR.
YOU are the GOD DAMNED KING OF GARDENERS. This entire land is YOURS TO PLANT AND WATER.

BUT THERE'S ONE MAJOR PROBLEM, DIPSHIT.
THE EMPEROR IS JUST FUCKING WITH YOU. PLAYING FUCKING MIND GAMES, AND

YOU'VE JUST. ABOUT. FUCKING. HAD IT.
You see, every time you've got a nice garden going, he sends that FUCKING PANDA TO EAT ALL OF YOUR GOD DAMNED BAMBOO. PRAY TO THE GOD OF THUNDER TO SCARE THE PANDA AWAY. KEEP WATERING. DON'T TAKE ANY SHIT FROM THE EMPEROR OR HIS PANDA FLUNKY.

Takenoko: Eat bamboo, and SHIT. IT. OUT.
Also available!

Takenoko Chibis: Because FUCK HER TOO.

Bastard! . . . . . . backed...

Talking of which, I spotted this on the Kicktraq Today's Top Ten list when checking out Nemesis yesterday -
Surprise!

I can't imagine a grouping of words that could more completely turn me off from a game:
"Everdell: A beautiful Board Game of Cards and Critters. Grow your settlement in a charming world of lively forest critters in this elegant worker placement/tableau building board game."

I was perusing Sandy Petersen's latest Kickstarter, and it's not grabbing me. But what DID grab me was the "back of the box" quote for Cthulhu Wars by a "Michael Barnes" down at the bottom of the page. www.kickstarter.com/projects/1816687860/planet-apocalypse

I just backed the next expansion of Red Dragon Inn. There was an extra level to go for that included coasters with RDI drinks on them. If they were stone, I would have ponied up for them, but they are trying to get about $20 extra bucks for cardboard bar coasters. Idiotic.
