Edit: some people don't care about the outcome, so if they have fun playing games with a high component of chance, more power to them

There are cooperative board games if your friends and family like to cooperate. There are competitive ones if they like to compete. One should know their people and fit your entertainment to their desires. Namaste. Catan is garbage though, never play it.

Is Curt Schilling the one that stole tens of millions of dollars from the state of Rhode Island?

The tragedy in all of this is that someone willingly played Settlers of Catan.

The problem with cooperative games, is that you have a real competitive player, they can tend to try to dominate the game and dictate what other people do, and get mad if another player makes the "wrong" move. I've seen it happen way too many times. Hell, I used to do it before I developed some self awareness about how much of a jackass I was being.

Then there’s me, who once played little big planet with a friend and then just before crossing the finish line grabbed him and dragged us back across one and a half screens just so we could fall in a pit and die.

CommonShore posted:There are coop games that take steps to mitigate the "quarterbacking" problem. It's a common discussion re: games. I think that the most common solution is to introduce a hypothetical traitor. In this way nobody feels free to start quarterbacking because they will draw too much attention. This reminds me of a story involving a friend of mine who sometimes behaves like a jerk. We were playing a dreadfully boring game (Shadows Over Camelot) of this type that he had brought - everybody is trying to do quests cooperatively but there might be a traitor. At some point after 1 hour it was ruled out that anybody of us could be the traitor because everybody had had at least one chance to finish the game with everybody losing. The game dragged for 3-4 hours. Close to the end this guy actually revealed himself to be the traitor and made everybody lose anyway, but he had had lots of fun being the "puppet-master". I don't know how we didn't punch him at that time.

The best most paranoid time we ever had in a coop game was playing Battlestar Galactica. Everybody swore they weren't a robot and there was no trust for the 3ish hours the game went on. Then we found out I was just drunk and failed at making that deck and there were no cylons in game.

The game also wasn't good*, and I lived in RI at the time and worked for a republican small business owner so I had to hear all kinds of hot takes on the radio about how the hell can it possibly cost so much money to make a video game gently caress Curt Schilling for making my dumb job that much more annoying * I played the free trial to see what all the fuss was about. Mechanically, it was average. Nothing new or exciting, but also similar enough to other MMOs to be playable. The story was completely forgettable.

AndreTheGiantBoned posted:Jfc Me and my friends loved to play smash growing up. We'd get together and just spend rainy afternoons playing it for hours. Tons of characters, items and all sorts of ways to keep it interesting. We'd swap out who played so one guy didn't dominate too much and people didn't feel bad for losing or if they got stuck with a character they didn't like or were bad with. But we had That One Guy. He watched all the tournament player videos and brushed up on the strategies. So any time he showed up he'd bitch and moan until items were turned off, any time he got to pick the stage it was final destination. If he didn't get to play as samus or fox he'd throw himself off the edge in a fit. Otherwise he'd wavedash and other poo poo and win every match he was part of in record time and it was no loving fun for anyone else. Like, it's fine to be really into a game or whatever. But don't be That Guy. You don't have to take your hardcore turbo poo poo everywhere. This was the same guy who would throw tantrums, well into his teenage years, any time he stared losing mario party.

I feel like personality shouldnt be used in hall of fame situations since hall of fame should literally be a skill only thing. He pitched 9 innings with a bleeding ankle because he just literally got surgery. Which overcame a 3-0 in the world series. I doubt alot of hall of famers were good people. Especially all the ones inducted before 1960. I'm also gonna end it with I dont gaf if curt is ever in the hof he is a garbage human and I know it keeps him up at night and eats at him that he isnt in it.

Curt Schilling's abortive Senate run, complete with five-person death rally, was one of the most schadenfreudelicious things of the past many months. The best part was when he gave out Washington State apples to the attendees, even though it was the height of apple season in Mass.

Goons ran a couple of all-Cylon leader games and they were a lot of fun. Cylon leaders are kind of an alternative uncertain ally/enemy that's closer to the actual Cylons infilitrators we see in the show. The rules for them are in Pegasus and maybe one other expansion.

I would figure that someone that is so good at smash brothers would would be equally good regardless of character, items, or battlefield. Anyway the thing I liked about playing games like that with my friends is that some of us would be better at some things and some of us would be better than others, so everybody had chances to really shine.
