So funny, I take everything he says with a grain of salt. Usually the games he rips apart are the ones I like, if it's something that interests me. It's his opinion and I get that but opinions are like a$$holes – everyone's got one!!!
Tom: "I don't personally think 'ugly' Christmas sweaters are ugly"
Me (in a Zee Garcia voice): But Tom, look at that shirt-tie combo… 👀💯🤣
Real talk I unironically love Tom's swag/style and wouldn't change a thing, but the irony of that statement in that outfit is not lost on me. Not to mention I wanted to shout out Zee. 😂
And it ends looking the watch, to show how much time he lose on this awful games. Thanks for your services Tom!
It's aaaAAAwwwWWful! 😀 Really BAAAD!
i heard a lot of people like deep state. weird.
Both Ugly Christmas Sweaters and Latte Throwdown are good games. Please at least watch a video about how games played before jumping into conclusion based on subjective opinion of one person made after one of less plays, even that person is well respected in a gaming world. Do not make yourself an idol said someone long ago. You know who and when.
Tom, please rename this segment to 'Games I didn't like & why'. Saying they are bad games is wrong, it gives the viewer the impression that these games are completely garbage rather than this is your opinion and why they didn't work for you.
Another bad review, another video that does not have a game I backed on KS. Winning!
I have seen many positive reviews of Ugly Christmas Sweaters and think it looks really good. I still hope it will be available in Germany in the future.
Tom didnt seem to enjoy that coffee game a …latte
A board game company and it’s designer complaining and getting angry about getting a negative review in the comment section of that review video turns me off the game more that the initial negative review.
We've enjoyed playing Rare Roses – it does look lovely and the rules are simple. Unfortunately a rule was missed out of the instruction manual re.starting conditions that helps to make the game more balanced, but what Tom said about just taking the order straight away rather than waiting for roses to bloom does happen a lot.
I like this concept. These games weren't on my radar at all tho. It might be fun for some more controversial takes on more popular titles.
That was unfortunate. Comparing 'Latte Throwdown' to 'Vegas Showdown' and 'Viva Java' (which we own) is weird, as neither game has dice, not one. I guess Tom has not played those games, which suggests he didn't play Latte Throwdown to find the interesting part. The 3-8 player, 20-page rulebook of 'Viva Java', doesn't compare to Latte Throwdown's 1-4 player accessible fun with friends in a coffee shop game. Like the game designer has said, you can't win'em all, but a sloppy review is damaging to a brilliantly designed, gorgeously themed game for ordinary people who just want to enjoy some interesting and non-threatening fun together.
I enjoyed Deep State, I do agree that the rules seem to create a barrier to entry that isn’t necessary for a game of its weight.
I'm wondering instead of grouping 'bad' games into 1 vid, they could group reviews based on their genre (euro, arena battle, Dungeon crawl, trick taking, kids games etc.) – like a week in review but by genres.
Latte Throwdown looks to have very similar mechanics and gameplay to Roll for It from Calliope Games. Roll for It is fairly popular as a lightweight filler. I’m curious why Latte Throwdown wouldn’t scratch the same itch.
Looks at watch and thinks "that's 9 minutes of my life I won't get back."
I wonder the value of reviewing bad games. Surely, time would be better spent only reviewing good games.
Ugly Christmas Sweaters is actually really, really good. It's casual and an interesting take on trick-taking. I felt best at 2 players.
Please post your videos on Rumble as well as YouTube.
Symbolism, the word you’re looking SYMBOLISM. Lol thought of the boondock saints lol
While I agree that the theme probably don't come forward in this game, I though that Deep State New World Order had a different approach on worker placement that was refreshing. Did anyone played the game here and if so, did you feel the same as Tom or do you feel differently about this game?
LOL the walk off at the end checking his timing.
Latte throw down is good. Sorry don't listen to Tom. We have this and love the game. Fun dice game similar to Las Vegas, but a little better
I love Deep State, great theme, interesting choices, I get that it's not for everyone, but I think it deserves better than tossing it in a video like this.
bad games or bad game reviews? 😉
So you are saying buy Risky Chicken?
So what time is it?
People in these comments don't seem to understand the concept that a review is a subjective opinion and it's okay to disagree.
Tom is full of crap on Deep State.
Deep state is a good game, i like the many ways that you can score in it
Keep doing reviews of bad games, please. There is just too much out there to waste a purchase on an underdeveloped game.
I would play deep state. Looks cool.
The comments here lol…someone pass the salt!
