My friend group once did something similar. We played a game of Star Wars Risk, but every dice roll was substituted with a game of Star Wars Miniatures (The tactics game when WotC had the license before Fantasy Flight) with the map being determined by the planet being invaded. We also included additional rules around the unique characters, where if they were defeated, they'd be on cooldown, forcing the players to use different pieces or retreat the units and cede points to the other player. Was pretty fun, but we never finished, namely because of one player deciding to sap all the joy out of it by endlessly complaining whenever he was on the backfoot.

Fun fact: because Vale has added even more ways to get into jail. And the only downside of not paying for properties is that you can go to jail. The probable optimal strategy is to never pay rent. In an attempt to either get to jail early or get teleported back to jail to give you more chances at buying the orange properties. As those properties are going to be the ones people land on once they get out of jail. And as more people are going to be going to jail than passing go that's the best way of making money.

[@jan_harald]

another fun trick would be to first up, just buy up EVERYTHING, aiming to roll low, and just use 3/4 of your first round buying stuff and going into debt, and THEN try to get to jail all the time

Thomas Edison was an incredible inventor alongside being a fantastic organizer for his team & did at least equal to Tesla. Both men worked on improvements to the lightbulb, the lightbulb predates either's birth but it was Edison's vision & understanding of how this could be brought to the general public & refined that drove this pursuit. Why Edison was brilliant & important has mostly to do with how he utilized existing infrastructure to innovate & create a national electric grid making it a commercial force usable by the general public & viable for immediate implementation. Though also Edison's work on audio recording, motion picture, essentially founding modern research industrial laboratory, advancements in batteries, erc were enormously important. I tire greatly of people trying to remove his credit as an inventor. Tesla was also brilliant in his field but also inflexible & impractical.

[@jordonfewster8335]

There’s a Monopoly clone that I found at a thrift store in Canada called “Poleconomy”. It’s essentially the same as monopoly only instead of properties it uses real Canadian companies as property and some as “Advertising” (the game came out in the 1980’s so it used now defunct companies). The game had an interest mechanic, government bonds, life insurance, business insurance, and the best part of the whole game was it had a parliament mechanic. You see the players at the start of the game roll for number of seats and the player with the majority of total seats can form a government or a group of players could form a political party and form a government (basically the same way the Canadian parliament works). In play throughs, players and I would LARP different political ideologies as a joke. The mechanic let whoever was in charge (the Prime Minister) enact policies throughout the game and there was quite literally no rules as to what policies could be enacted. One time the government passed a law that stated that at some point during the turn phase the players who weren’t in power had to give a set amount of money to those that were. Hilarity obviously always ensued. I would highly recommend it as a game you should try with the rest of the crew.

This is amazing! I have some suggestions for the next iteration: - Instead of the homelessness role, if you land on an unclaimed property and decide not to buy it, you still have to pay it's rent to the bank. - Prison Events: when you go to jail you roll for your sentence (how many turns you stay in prison). Instead of rolling to get out, you draw from a prison events deck. This deck contains some positive events like early release, but also negatives like extra prison fees (because US prisons are dystopic). There should be one card that's just "you get stabbed in prison" and is instant death, this could help discourage the prison tax evasion exploit. - Instead of a gambling square, you should have the option on your turn to gamble from anywhere on the board. There is gamble and if you lose the money goes in the centre of the board. Whoever next wins also gets the pot in the middle of the board. - A Crypto/NFT investment option... - An election cycle that flips back and forth between two partys. Nothing changes, but the players can feel like they have some kind of hope when their favourite party wins. - If you somehow end up with more than a billion $ you become immune to taxes and a perpetual "Get out of Jail Free" card.

One thing I love with this, is the game theory we can consider. See, as in normal monopoly, paying rent never takes money out of the player pool, just causes it to trade hands; unlike normal monopoly however, the usage and repayment of loans means the bank continually takes money out of the player pool with every lap. We make two observations: - Once the players have larger payments than salary, the player pool can only shrink, and all are doomed. - However, given that the numbers are right, it's favorable for a player to buy (mortgage) a property as long as it sees enough traffic for rent to balance the payments. Thus it settles on that fun sort of equilibrium where all players are incentivized to take actions which doom the players as a group! Actually the only saving grace is the presence of the Big Money tiles, which become purely beneficial once players are in debt.

Yes, afaik there's nothing stopping you from making multiple KZbin accounts.

Lynx at 9:05: "I'll buy this.' Lynx, 41 seconds later: "This is a very large financial decision..." Pick a lane, Lynx!

[@Totasfunnynumber]

I need a compilation of all of Lynx's gambling shenanigans

"let's go gambling! AW DANG IT AW DANG IT AW DANG IT"

[@lolucorn1]

​@@thelastdunkonian2846don't forget right as soon as a games about to end he just starts racking up the big money

[@NyxWhiteFang]

I think every "gambling pays" alone would be more than 5 minutes long

[@Totasfunnynumber]

@@NyxWhiteFang then you throw in the Life video, and now it's somehow longer than both videos combined

[@Guile_The_Exile]

​@@thelastdunkonian2846Minus that annoying Tiktok brain rot audio clip that's being spammed into oblivion 😐

[@jazzf8246]

Proof that less than 4 hours of Monopoly gameplay can make even the hardest masochists advocate for prison abolition

[@Bipolar.Baddie]

I'm convinced I'll be out of college loan debt before we get another update on the Campaign for North Africa video

[@gustavjacobsson3332]

According to the Kelly criterion, the optimal fraction of your wealth to bet on gambling under those circumstances would be 19.1%, with an expected long term return of 8.9% per gamble.

[@f2b962]

1:00:46 I didn’t even realize a hour had passed till I read “short video” and decided to see how long it’s been lmao

[@damnitjohnny7341]

i think the terminology for not being in debt was "to be in black", not green (in accounting if youre in net loss it used to be marked with a red pen, if all good, every entry in the books was in standard pen colour, black :3). real fun vid, will torment my friends too!

[@adammichelow4304]

Cleveland Represent!!! For real tho, Huntington Valley is a really nice area, in which if you go down some roads and people don't recognize you or your vehicle the cops will be called to escort you out of that neighborhood

[@MarcusFigueras]

Funniest bit is when the screen says "I'm going to show a chart later when the stocks update" and then the game doesn’t update the stock prices for half the video and then when it finally happens the caption says "I'm not updating that shit"

[@indomitablesloth2437]

55:26 "Don't leave that in the video, it'll be a spoiler" Chamber putting it in the intro sequnce:

[@cainking7943]

Favorite line is “I’ve updated your balance no worries” as he puts a man 6 figures into debt, valefisk is roleplaying the banker too well

[@konstantinrezvoi]

Would've been even funnier to find actual listings for the properties, so you can't deny reality because all the listings are real.

[@finn_underwood]

Tbh my favourite joke this video was at 7:11; Mavi making Edison's logo an A which coincidentally looks almost exactly like a flipped Tesla logo is such an insane coincidence and it's absolutely brilliant and hilarious that it happened like that. Even following corporate logo design philosophy, there are so many other ways to stylize an A... the fact it looks the way it does is truly remarkable.

[@dasdadwaswad7358]

14:59 there's lore behind why Amtrak no longer carries freight (larger rail companies got mad)

[@noodlelynoodle.]

I imagine part of it too is cause they don't own the rail lines they run on and the amount of delays they run into cause of it just makes shipping not make sense

[@jan_harald]

there's also lore behind why it sux so much, despite there literally being laws that are supposed to give it precedence

[@JJschannel255]

Please elaborate

[@Handlesarestoopid]

​@@JJschannel255freight railroads didn't like Amtrak trying to run freight on some of their passenger trains, so many freight railroads banned Amtrak freight from their systems (which is a problem as Amtrak mostly uses their tracks via trackage rights)

[@olly123451]

I gotta give props for the caption editing in this video. Not only is it colour coded, but when people talk to one another, any referential words are italicised in that players colour… Definitely made this wonderful mess of a video wonderful to watch 😊

[@trogdoar149]

Where is the campaign for North Africa video vale? You can't escape. You must give the Italians their pasta vale. Do it, give them the pasta.

[@LostStarCelestial]

i love putting these videos in the background while i do anything else, the suffering of your friends is a great motivator to not end up in a similar situation

[@Airbigbawls]

love how the big iron starts out as small iron

[@SirCleric]

Anyone else notice Dyno's piece steadily growing over the course of the game?

[@LordMew4459]

This should suffice until the Campaign for North Africa

[@Just_Adrian_]

The fact that valefisk now says "A couple years ago" before talking about crypt is making me feel so ancient

[@triangulism]

I saw your comment on DiploStrats global diplomacy variant and thought "oh god he's definitely gonna release a video on that in like 2-3 weeks." This is nice. But I seriously wanna see that 32 player global diplomacy game Vale

[@s1ddh4r7h.p]

Just a few hours ago, I checked the valefisk™ channel to see if there was anything new I missed, and thought "hm, the monopoly videos were great. I wonder if they'd ever film another. Probs not" but here I am a few hours later finding that _this_ was posted. prepared for the next ~2 hrs.

[@nicholasyap7546]

4:25 good to know that I'm not the only one is Scotland who's internet tanks when it rains

[@yeah8767]

i love how they instantly realized that they can torture vale by fucking with the mortgage downpayments as payback for forcing them to play the game

[@rugbug531]

Next time, he’ll have this massive, way too complicated spreadsheet on how to do every mortgage payment under the sun and they all just- do it the way vale intended in the first place so Cale can be tourtured by doing multiple days worth of work for nothing!

[@BlanekdCheque]

Just like in real life, a house has gotten so unaffordable that the focus is dripping out Greg

[@calebslusher62]

I love the idea of Vale, every single time someone asks what the math is on their mortgage, putting some small, squared glasses on the monkee suit as he does his calculations

[@naplockblubba5369]

Imagine if Valefisk and Dominic Allen teamed up to make the worst fucking Monopoly experience known to man

[@mosesracal6758]

Its so weird because it sometimes seem like you cant buy anything so it incentivizes money sinks like donating to gambling funds and gambling, but in one turn you can also just lose everything if you get an unlucky roll.

[@dicerson9976]

The gambling wheel Vale made is actually surprisingly favorable for the roller. 2/3rds of the time you lose your entire bet, but one third of the time you (on average) triple it. This means that for all bets, you are making about 33% of your bet as profit on average. You want to be able to roll enough times to see that average work out, so realistically you want to bet maybe 10% of your total balance

[@Homeostasisis]

Extremely into Maivi completely dying after that big money draw and everyone else in the room completely ignoring it

[@MaxYan-bi4jm]

lets now wait for monopoly for North Africa where instead of playing normal monopoly Mr fisk just plays Campaign for North Africa

[@JohnnyArcadeNintendo]

I like how Dyno's iron piece gets comically larger everytime he goes to jail.

[@ttav]

crypt 2 will be an immersive vr experience of a neuralink ape

[@held2053]

I love that the subtitles now actually match the player colors thank you!

[@zakaltan-euskaldunen_enjoyer]

I can't believe valefisk made vancover in monopoly
