Great video. I played this game twice and watched it played one time before I played. The first I played it I did not enjoy it so much but the second time I played I enjoyed it much more. I think after I watched your KZfaq video I will not be so hesitant when Crusades is brought to the table again. Thank you for all the videos you make.I appreciate all the ones I have seen.

I appreciate the twist you gave to this video’s intro (I guess to smooth out some of the backlash you previously got in comments), but I think I prefer the handheld intro method better. I find that the rough edits in the intro dialogue too jarring. Between this method, the original table-intro method, and the handheld method for the intro, the latter gets my vote. You still get an A for effort. Keep plugging away.

Nice review of this game. I get the feel you are trying to get with pulling the game from the shelf and that you like the idea. I think this format was far better than the moving camera but I think there would be a much better flow if you don't do the cut where you bend down to get the game. Just a full view of you reaching for the game on the shelf and perhaps as another viewer said put it back at the closing of the video. I think a few more little touches and it will achieve exactly that feel I think your looking for. This is a much better feel than your earlier attempts at this new format. Keep up the good work. Love your channel.

I love you, but this is just my two cents. I realize some people like the changes in the introduction of the video, but I find it very jarring. Part of that could just be I am used to the opening video being a specific way as a long time fan, but I also think even as someone who hasn't seen your previous videos, that the edits come across a little bit stiff and clunky. I just don't feel that genuine flair I got with the previous introductions which were always a single take. I feel like this is production for the sake of production. You should do what you want, but that's my opinion.

A lovely breakdown of a game whose mechanics I really believe I would love. Sadly, the theme is a deal breaker for me. I can't see myself displaying a game about the Crusades on my shelf, even if it includes Prussian and Slavic enemies alongside Saracens. This is a shameful and indefensible period in the history of Western Civilization, and especially the Church. Feel free to disagree with me, belittle my decision, or even shout "deus vult!" at the top of your lungs. I, personally, could never in good conscious present it to my group.

@@giampaolofini1535 I'm perfectly fine playing all sorts of historically themed titles that don't involve an organized religion telling its faithful that they can secure their place in heaven by traveling to a foreign land and killing in the name of God, unless you dispute those facts. No matter how many 'sides' there are to an issue, I would no more play this than I would a game themed around modern jihadi. Save the sophistry until you have a better rebuttal than "history isn't black and white".
@cj1000 5 жыл бұрын
@@sardonicpoet fair enough. I'm sure some people don't want to play the German side in WWII games because of the Holocaust, and that's fair too. Lots of historical periods reflect the worst side of human nature and I can't argue with someone not wanting to play that in a game. I've studied the Crusades a little and it's a very complex period, worth exploring beyond the simple world of games.
