Your playthroughs are easily some of the best I've seen.

Charlie, that is incredibly kind of you. Thank you. I truly believe that hard work can make up for a lack of talent and I hope these videos are a testiment to that. Comments like yours make the hard work worth it, so thank you for taking the time to support my channel!

Haha "after about 10 minutes of messing around, you'll be ready to continue" about the magnet is so true, this was me.

@TotallyTabled Ай бұрын

It's funny because it's true, except I played around for closer to 15 minutes. :) I'm a simple man -- just give me magnets in my board games and I'm happy. Game is pretty good as well. Thanks for watching!

I've been watching for a while, just wanna say your playthroughs are awesome. Don't burn yourself out pumping out content but I can't wait to see more.

Thanks so much Alec. It is wonderful to hear that you enjoy my playthroughs. These videos are difficult to make, but comments like yours help me from feeling burned out. Thanks again for all the support!

I love this game!! I got the Kickstarter for solo play. I wish I got the metal coins. I hope the negative reviews don’t discourage them from making expansions. I’m ready for it!! This has become one of my favorite solo games. Anachrony is in my top 5 games. MOTDR may be more difficult to learn due to the unintuitive symbology.

Thanks for watching Sable. I'm glad you enjoy Merchants. It's a very fun game. I definitely need to get Anachrony back to the table. Have a great day!

Wow, this looks fantastic! Really well-made video for sure! (Are you using just one top-down camera and cropping in and out?) Loved the cinematic intro! Should be playing this game in a week or two! 👍🏼

Hey, thanks BoardGameDave. Yeah, just one camera overhead, 4K, punching in. I have a real simple setup in my tiny home office, so I'm pretty limited in what I can do. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I hope you enjoy the game. Let us know how it goes once you get it to the table!

@BoardGameDave 2 жыл бұрын

@@TotallyTabled Wow, that’s incredible quality considering how much you’re cropping into the footage! Do you mind me asking what camera you’re using?

@TotallyTabled 2 жыл бұрын

Not at all. I'm currently using a Canon R6 but any 4K full frame DSLR would do the job. I record to a Ninja 5, which allows for long recordings and no overheating. Then I place the 4K footage onto a 1080p timeline (I use Davinci) so I can crop in without loss. Or at least that is my understanding of what I am doing. I actually have zero experience and I'm mostly winging it. 😜 Hope that helps!

Excellent video! I just checked out your channel... looks like you're just starting out. Well, no matter, because so far, this video at least is a lot better than those produced by far more experienced content creators! Subscribed.

@TotallyTabled 2 жыл бұрын

Hey bgm, I really appreciate those kind comments. I'm definitely just starting out and still finding my way. I cannot tell you how much your support helps. Thanks for the sub and the encouragement!

just got this game, and this (and the other two parts) was so helpful! I am going to have to look into getting the more realistic tokens and such like you have, they are so cool!

Awesome, Taylor. I'm so happy the video was helpful. The bits are great, especially those lanterns. Hope you enjoy the game. Thanks for checking out the channel!

Hi do you still have the base game and if so are you going to back the expansion?

@TotallyTabled Ай бұрын

I do have the base game. I'm usually uninterested in expansions for games that I don't feel need one, and that is how I feel about Merchants. I especially avoid crowdfunding expansions. I'll give it look but I'd say probably 95% pass for me. Base game is enough for me and maybe a retail pickup at some point. Thanks for watching!
