Damn, dude. This was really good. One "fuck Gen7" away from matching my experiences for the year.

I have played Western Legends! It's real! Unfortunately, unlike most adventure type games, it works better with *more* players.

Pretty sure this is a song about trying to play Western Legends and the what is required to actually get the game.

"...playing the Mind feels like hanging out with a stoner with a surprisingly good record collection: you might be able to bliss out to some sick Sleep deep cuts, but before you do you have to hear about the embarrassing spiritual history of this dude’s Kokopelli bong first."


That, right there, is poetry. As well as an apt analogy.

Great read!

Sadly, I have to agree with your assessment of Empires of the Void II. I played this a couple of times, and the response each time was ... muted, half-hearted praise. "It's okay." "Yeah, that was kinda cool, I guess." "Beats a sharp stick in the eye."

It's an odd duck of a game. As you said, it looks for all the world like a space empire-building game, but it's just not. It actually has more in common with Red Raven's Islebound game. In Islebound, you have one ship that you use to bop around to all these various islands, having adventures, and building stuff. Ryan Laukat took that same premise, changed it to a "Worldship" and swapped in planets for islands.

I think it might be a matter of adjusting one's expectations.

I recently had a choice between Western Legends and SpaceCorp, and while I’m happy I didn’t get Western Legends, after reading the rule book I’m not sure I’m happy I got SpaceCorp.

Bring back a report on that one, gotta say I'm curious.
