>>724151808 (OP)
I think it is kind of illegal, but most game developers either don't care or get an actual benefit from people playing the games. Board games aren't cheap so you might as well try before you buy.

Every time I see some fat neckbeard raving about how good Kingdom Death Monster and how they bought ever expansion I ask them how many times have they played it and they will always say a number less than 5, including 0.

Dumbfucks are just buying the game for the coom miniatures and FOMO.

>>724151808 (OP)
It's not only legal, it's encouraged. 99% of board game developers--and shockingly, PUBLISHERS too--are 100% on-board with people stealing the assets and playing it through TTS. Hell, most new games have commissioned workshop uploads as well, or endorse ones that other people have made. Board Games are ironically one of the few gaming hobbies left that is still genuinely good and has a good energy in it.

The only people that usually raise a stink are those trying to to sell their own standalone version, usually with crossplay with mobile, and wanting to sell a billion expacs, but they're also usually games not worth playing (and most players will just put the mod somewhere not on the workshop), so it all works out

>>724151808 (OP)
>Almost kills the entire game by removing global chat and forcing everyone to use Shitcord
Bravo

The sad truth is most board games are not that good and playing with friends irl is half the fun.

>>724151808 (OP)
I've printed so many hard to get games thanks to people uploading the mods to TTS, I love it so much.

I get to play Splotter games without paying 200 dollars for some cards and ugly looking cardboard

>>724152805
That's just what right-wing wokies say, as they didn't have any friends to play with and are too corrosive to fit in with any group of regular players, even those on 4chan

>>724152841
What board games have you played?

>>724152803
I have a stack of board games I only bought because I enjoyed them on TTS and I know several of my friends have done the same. Turns out piracy is good marketing. Nobody is gonna buy your game if they've never heard of it.

>>724152374
What the fuck are you talking about?

Stonemaier and Van Ryder recently went after the mod trading discord too. I have no sympathy for discord niggers but I have no idea if there's anywhere else people were uploading the copyrighted mods. Like you said none of their shit is worth playing in the first place but two publishers doing it in the last month might mean the kikes are getting mad about the imaginary revenue "lost" from TTS

>>724152931

i have a friend that kept buying cooperative games like this and expecting my dopey wife and his moron younger brother to be able to comprehend and play them many times.
kingdom death, gloomhaven, that LoL one about piloting mechas... all played less than a half dozen times.
meanwhile my copies of splendor, carcasonne, and agricola are all beginning to show wear from constant use.

>>724153069
Yeah. There's cases where I've ended up paying more than I thought I ever would for a board game, all because I got a chance to play it through TTS and know that I'd still play it for countless hours more. I've picked up tons of smaller games because I got a chance to try them all and I know exactly who specifically I'd run them with. There's games where I was impressed just with the design and visuals alone, and then was absolutely sold on buying it in person because the non-digital version looked even better and had more impressive pieces (not kickstarter plastic monstrosities, but more like Coffee Rush having the little cups and modeled ingredients)

It's a great way to get people to buy games, although I'll also give credit to the fact that the people playing them are also uniquely impassioned about the hobby enough that they much more regularly will go buy the actual game. It's works because of that.

It feels better when you play it in VR. It's really intuitive like playing on a real tabletop

>>724153376

>>724152278
>No, chads play 40k
Modern 40k is an abysmal game that nobody in their right mind would ever play.

>>724153445
i also bought it and hated it enough to refund.
and i've tried a friend's copy in VR via family sharing and it doesn't seem any better, really. maybe worse, as even just the games menus weren't properly responding in VR.

>>724153447
It's more that Master Trainer is well-known for being an immensely shit game, so people have taken that as a challenge to try to do the concept justice. Some of them are okay. Ultimate Master Trainer is still mostly just a dice chucker race by the end of the day, but it's just enough to kinda pull you in and feel like it's got a tiny bit of meat to it.

i never thought of it as 'bad', just incredibly brutal and unforgiving, causing long games (when played according to the rules).
i did also have a ton of house rules my sister and i played by so we managed to play it a lot and have fun that way

>>724153427
My favorite board game is Terraforming Mars, its a lot of fun to play on TTS, though I tend to avoid adding too many expansions at the same time, as it tends to drag the game down I think. I really like the fan mod feature of randomized board generation though that TTS offers.

>>724153579
1. buy TTS on steam
2. (optional) check out the mods section to find basically any published board game or card game under the sun and many fan games and expansions
3. find some people to play with online - when you connect to other people's lobby you will automatically download whatever game (mod) they are hosting. This does rely on the image and rulebook assets being hosted somewhere on the internet at a valid location.
4. ???
5. profit!

TS is very well integrated into the board game industry now. People who make board games only make 30-60 cents per purchase and it's a dying industry due to many factors being added ontop of the tarrifs.

What's the difference between getting a workshop mod of a boardgame to play on TTS vs playing a video game version of the game?

>>724155352
You paid for the video game LMAO
Or if you pirated it, you are just playing it with bots LMAO

>>724155352
Video game is an actual game so it will probably have animations or a working UI, but those things cost more money than just scanning a texture and uploading it to TTS, so they might not have all the content of the board game version (or the publisher is greedy and deliberately bases the video game on an older version to not compete with it's own product)

>>724155352
TTS is just a physics engine with scripting. So don't expect TTS to have a very "video game-y" experience. You will have to do a lot of reading the rulebook via a PDF viewer to figure out how to play the game. Players need to be comfortable with FPS control schemes and 3d world navigation, as TTS is more about simulating a virtual presence in a 3d space that just happens to have board game components physics objects in it to manipulate at your will. Many actions available to players can totally break the game rules or grief other players at any time. not much structure is enforced, so your players need some level of focus in order to actually play the game.

Plenty of board game makers put their games up on TTS themselves to generate hype for their kickstarter or whatever. Your average board game fan enjoys the aspect of being in person when they play, so TTS just serves as a good way to test run stuff

Why do you need a board game for that? Seems to me like the game is basically inconsequential at that point.

>>724158657
Brass

>>724158657
They are very different games. Root is an asymmetric wargame that is a bitch to learn since everybody is basically playing a different game, and Brass is a heavy economic game that is very interactive to the point a single bad play could cost you the entire game.

Based connoisseur

>>724161532
Sometimes the random nature of the game can do weird stuff, like if you draw too many Ra tiles the first epoch it can be hard to catch back up. But yes, it's really well made. The Sun Disc mechanism is genius, it's a dead simple strategy consideration to keep the richest player from just completely dominating. Pharoah Tiles, Monument sets, Civilization tiles, and Flood tiles are all important decisions to make too. Add to that it's the rare 45-60 minute playtime when most games are either less than 30 minutes or longer than 80 and it's easy to see why it's a classic.

Just Pamir. The other Pax games look a lot more difficult, and Pamir is already a hard game to table with its complexity. I'd love to try Pax Ren in person, but I just don't see it happenning.

It won't stop existing at any moment, this is not some shitty trend. The game is available there for you to buy it and play with friends at any moment. Faggot.

Pax Transhumanity is a personal favorite of mine, amazing what you can do with just some cards and wooden cubes.

Pax Renaissance was definitely one of the hardest games for me to learn how to play well, lot of minutiae to be aware of that can really screw you, but it's a fantastic game, if you can't get to play it in person, there's BGA to try it out.

there is literally nothing that can stop people from doing print & play, but board game publishers are largely fine with them because home-brewed solutions aren't a perfect substitute for the actual components.
yeah there is price jewery when it comes to games with tons of minis that really didn't need them, especially on kickstarter, but a digital PNP is no different from a physical PNP.

STILL no games

We'll figure out what to play depending on the players, if noobs to the hobby join in we can start with some fun quick games to get started and to learn TTS controls.

>>724159047
Depends on what your group likes most. I prefer Root because it's less serious and punishing. You will usually be talking about the current board state and who to hit next. Brass is much more serious and calculating, so you will be focused on the best play rather than the experience as a whole.

4 players, now that's a little better. Playing Balatro or whatever

>>724161532
I'd say 90% of Knizia games come off very bland and almost pretentious with how rules light they are. And for the first few plays, any hype around it will feel entirely misplaced.
Thing is, once you get out of that small learning curve, his games absolutely reward repeat plays. Not in that obnoxious "once you read all the chess openers the game becomes fun", more in the fact with how extremely deliberate everything is. Every edge case, every slight hint of information, every vague step of evaluation all of them are intended and designed to keep your head up and leverage the power of player psychology.
He's had a ton of stinkers for sure and some of his 'heavier' games go too hard on the decision tree route for my preference, but every time I wanted to dunk on him for shitting out 5 games a month, the more time I spend with them, the I realize they are.
Though I think my love of Ra only happened once I played the digital version so I could actually figure the fucking scoring out properly - newest version is marginally better with the player board, tokens notwithstanding

>>724184000
Depends on what that game is. What do you have in mind?

>>724184050
Nevermind, this is apparently almost done. I was gonna say Bullet, Onitama, Laser Chess, Double Nine, Mind Bug, something short and easy.

>>724184108
Fair enough. It's my own fault for waiting so long, anyways. I wanted to learn by watching you guys, but I underestimated how long that'd take.

>>724184176
I have not been watching this at all so I have no idea how to play. There's also Mushroom Sort but following a poker game with another poker game is a tough sell (and it's 4p max).

>>724184256
Wait, you also don't know? That's a bit disappointing, I could swear you would know at least this much. To be honest you've been dragging us down a bit. I'm not sure I want to continue like this. Could you please put some more effort?

>>724151808 (OP)
buying the "digital board game" after you've already paid got the software required to play the digital board game is ultra fucking nigger gay. I doubt there are people actually retarded enough to do something like this

it's pretty much free advertising for board games
people that play board games typically buy physical copies of the games they like, because playing online is a substitute for when getting together in the flesh isn't possible

It's preferable that you learn it before you host it so you can teach others. The /vm/ thread has a constant playerbase so you can ask there if you don't get players here. There's a couple guys playing on a separate lobby, maybe join them and ask them?

Yeah, usually.
Some of the workshop uploads are from game publishers or uploaded with permission from game publishers, but for the most part it's pirate city.
>Just like that?
There's some paid stuff available in the DLC section but nobody ever buys it.
And supposedly there are Discord servers where you can get save files with games loaded in that have been DMCA'd out of the workshop.

When I glanced over it, it seemed to be missing soeme cards but it's a bit of a mess to track, also a lot of the version of that and other games disappeared a few years ago, I still have them on my old pc that's stached away from 10 years ago.

>>724195463
Sounds interesting, you could try to contact KamSandwich, he's managed to retrieve old games thanks to his fanbase, if there are cards missing and the game is bad and old, he'll love that shit lol

>>724195463
One of these?

>>724195463
NTA, I found a version from 2024 in the trading discord. It has not been re-uploaded to the workshop because of DMCA. You put it in your saved objects folder. I've never played it so I don't know if anything is missing. The money(?) seems to be messed up, but the cards and directions are working.

Alright now I cleared the confusion it was a while since I checked on this, the second edition which is the one uploaded on the workshop is completely different from the original 1994/1995 printing, the second edition has 98 cards + 8, the first printing has 412 cards and is the one that contains all the crazy shit.

People can do so right now.

It may sound strange, but is there a game that can teach me how to play Dungeons & Dragons? I'm not looking for a game that borrows elements from a board game. Rather, I'm looking for a simulator that teaches the basic rules through one or more predefined campaigns.

For many people, board games are just an excuse to indulge in their main hobby, drinking. I used to play board games with friends and acquaintances and I fell out of the hobby because it can range from wildly entertaining to some of the most miserable settings I've been in. Some of the examples of the latter:
>autists who bring some game that needs an hour and set up just to explain the rules
>the person who will take command in "teamwork" style games like Pandemic and it's just automatic play from there
>normies with no charisma who cannot play anything than a party game and drag you down with their incompetence
>Euro board game fans

The Mario brothers escape and Luigi wins!

Remember this Luigi, I let you a-live.

That was awesome, I keep forgetting how fun it is playing with people. My friends are usually too lazy to set up a TTS night or the games I want require too many players so I just play them by myself

>>724198127

Sorry anon, and sorry to all solo gamers in this thread, but I have no fucking idea about solo gaming; most of the hobby is about sharing with people so I never got into them.

The only solo game I've ever played is Regicide.

>>724152074
yes, literally all /sp/ talks about are teams, football manager, and FIFA.

>>724201409
I'm not the one bringing in solvable games like European-style board games, I hate European style board games because what happens is this:
>you learn the rules but not the strategy
>person or people know the strategy and work quickly to achieve that, which is possible every time due to almost no RNG
>if you didn't do it perfectly you're fucked, there's still an hour left in the game and there is no path to victory
>can't even get the grace of eliminating, have to stick around and humiliate yourself by picking the winner

for me, its the guy who isnt paying attention to anything going on at all times making the whole game take 3 times as long

>>724202870
Don't make me regret playing this game you hear?

Also what's with puppet reviewers, there's one for video games too

Any of you have experience with using it for TTRPGs? I'm using Owlbear Rodeo right now. but if I'm using something system agnostic and without automation, I might as well do it on 3D
