Have you ever been a playtester for a new game, /tg/?

what if you think you're the chosen one but are a worthless failure at it?

But more seriously:
If you are there just for fun, rather than be useful and get insight in how the game is (not) working, you are approaching it from a completely wrong direction.
I helped unfuck two different games during their translation phase. I helped to unfuck bunch of board games during their translation phase. I always participated as a free tester, so all I get from it was the chance to disassemble the game before it is released, mix the parts, then assemble it back and see if it is still working. It is always fun for me, because this is also the chief reason why I'm in this hobby - I like to disassemble stuff.
