NRB Plays BETRAYAL LEGACY | Prologue

[@dutch6857]

Thank you for announcing before hand that the rest of the episodes are for patrons, much better than the after-the-game announcement with The King's Dilemma. (And, honestly, I don't mind the paywall if it helps keep the lights on, I just don't like being blindsided. Thanks for all the content you have provided me, and I hope you all have a prosperous New Year!)

That card at the end was supposed to be given to Sullivan right when he died. He was supposed to keep it a secret until the end, knowing there was no witch. It kinda sucks they forgot that because it would’ve been good to watch his reaction knowing the truth.

[@tetsuv]

That's the problem with playing the legacy deck upside down like that. The next card has instructions for when it should be read

[@Phalxxx]

Also it would have given Blair more of a chance since there'd be more ghosts around for her to utilize the chalice.

[@tetsuv]

If you played with the legacy deck right side up youd know when to reveal the next card and will know to add additional rules. Like the rules for adding ghosts which would have happened after the first death

[@sgtpepper9001]

I was thinking the same thing. The cards are right side up in opposite order so I think sometime off screen literally went through the trouble to reverse the order. But ya the ghosts would have happened sooner and the chalice might have had more effect on the game cause of it

[@voorp]

@@sgtpepper9001 They pull the bottom card. So the order wasn't reversed.

[@whitewingedkrad]

I dont understand why they are playing the deck the way they are it adds nothing and makes it more likely to get things wrong?

[@tetsuv]

@@voorp the problem isn't the order, the card will have on it "stop: read this card when X happens" so you can see when to continue through the deck

[@kaorugetto1440]

You don't have to end your turn in a space to use the action on that space, for example drinking from the pond The only restriction is you can't do the same action twice in a turn so you cannot Drink from the pond and Drink from the Chalice of Insanity since they both list the action as Drink Love the series and can"t wait to see more

[@Immafuggin182]

Ive been obsessed with Betrayal since 2018 and I remember preordering the Legacy game and my friend and I being so excited by it that we played most of the campaign as two characters each. I then bought another copy for a game night group and I just recently bought my third copy when I got my apartment. I love this game and how different people’s versions of the game are. I’m so stoked to have my favorite board game channel now playing it. Also shout out to Game the Game with Becca Scott who has a great playthrough of the entire game and an epilogue interview with the creator of the game!

[@mcadamwebb6140]

If you didn’t know, a twitch group of friends called Loading Ready Run also did a full play through. It can be found on KZbin

[@rellikx7519]

Same, the little rituals they made with some of the cards was great, like the whispers card just being some awkward mumbling

[@Steev42]

One rule I noticed that wasn't done quite right -- you can do each action once per turn. It doesn't matter when during the turn it happens; so the 'drink' action could be done before the attacks if you wanted.

[@angrybirdboy985]

Hey guys, I've played Betrayal. Just so they get hammered in please remember the following: - Don't play with the legacy upside down! The cards tell you when to stop drawing and when to flip the next card so it's okay to have it face up! Some of the versions of the board game are misprinted so that the legacy decks are flipped the wrong way around, Teri should be able to quickly flip it all if there is an issue. - The person who is going first reads the legacy deck card. The game does actually do a good job of telling you who needs to read the cards and journal entry. This does not operate like Baldur's Gate! The person who draws the event card should be the person who reads it because some cards tell the player not to read it out loud!

[@xekon14]

You made a mistake with the Creek, you can take the Drink action any time not just at the end of your turn, but only once that turn. So if you use the drink action on the creek you can still move, attack, etc. but if there is an item or another tile with the Drink action, you couldn’t use it. Also with the way the action is written it makes no sense that you can only use it when you end your turn when it says “you lose all remaining moves”.

The twist in the prologue is amazing. But Scooby Doo is still the best version of betrayal.

[@IceCenders]

This scenario was brilliant. Usually the Betrayal scenarios are psychologically stale, they're just slasher stories, but a psychological twist where there was actually no evil monster is a lot more interesting.

[@Rondominas]

Well this video got me to subscribe to the Patreon. Unfortunately I didn't realize the basic pledge level (which included the King's Dilemna legacy series) doesn't include this series, and that there was a separate higher priced tier if you want this series. The higher tier is a bit too much, so I guess they got my basic susbcription for a month - already cancelled.

[@etherdeef4303]

The price is a bit much isnt it? oh well

[@joeylopez442]

Really looking forward to this while series!

[@Actinjsh]

If you think about it, it was obvious from the start of the haunt, because it says to discard the cards down to the player count and there is no way to guarantee there is only 1 witch.

[@esnesnommoc9025]

That's actually not true because you discard specific cards. Three of the cards list 3-4-5, two list 4-5 and one list 5 players. If there were a witch it would lie in one of the three cards that list 3-4-5 (aka cards that are guaranteed to be in play and not discarded). And ofc players aren't allowed to reveal what card they draw even before scratching it off.

[@Boonslayer]

At the beginning of the action game. I've seen plenty of the first game of Betrayal Legacy, avoided watching anything beyond (even though I know if I ever actually get around to buying it, it has the potential to be very different), and I *love* the twist in this first haunt and am looking forward to when I see how that'll play out with these goobers in particular.

This is tied for first on my top legacy games of all time. Best journey and adventure I've ever had in a board game. Im really excited about this one

[@R3s3rv3r]

I've heard similar opinions and I'm glad some people loved it. My group had a different experience with it. It started interesting but then we noticed we've had been googling for rules clarifications for an hour on multiple scenarios. The rules are really unclear and that was annoying. None of us are native English speakers so there's that... The game felt unbalanced, components were rather bad and rules were clunky. We almost didn't even finish the campaign as we started hating the very idea of playing the game. Had to finish because we paid for it, but we were all happy when it was over.

[@brandonvangieson8087]

@R3s3rv3r Man, I'm sorry y'alls experience wasn't as fun. My group had all played a ton of the original, the expansion, the Baldur's gate version, and this game has been jank and unbalanced from the start lol. For us, the funkiness was a feature, not a bug. And because we loved the original so much, seeing things in the house you recognize grow before your eyes was really fun and exciting. The story also had us in, because you could recognize so many ties to that OG house and it had fun progression through the ages as the story changes with the various progression of years. And the secrets, surprises, and twists kept us gasping and laughing as it kept making the game even more messy (and yeah probably more janky), but also kept increasing the stakes. And it also has one of my favorite endings I've seen a legacy game, only matched by my tie for first place legacy game ever, The Initiative. Looking over you and your friends dislikes with the game though, I could see how they negatively impacted your experience, while we ended up enjoying them. I would fairly agree in the end that it might not be a game for everyone. But it will always hold some special memories in my heart.

Spoilers: At lower player counts you would have to destroy the excess cards, right? At that point I was thinking for this to work the "witch" would have to be in cards 1-3 otherwise there would be no witch at all in some cases. This doesn't really make sense since the cards marked 4-5 would then always be safely human so I do think it's possible to figure out the twist very early on. I mean as they pointed out, you can't do anything about it. I'm just thinking if they could've implemented it a different way to prevent spoiling the twist which I think is a great concept.

Again rules ignored or misunderstood. Sullivan should have read something after dying, which would have introduced the way to add ghosts, and blair would have been able to move out even if Laurie blocked her because obstacles can't reduce your speed to 0

[@Phalxxx]

I wasn't sure about that speed ruling... Blair moved into the the tile that round, and tried to move back out, so technically her speed wasn't reduced to 0, since she'd already used 3 of her 4 movement. (If Blair started her turn in the tile and had had only 1 Speed, for example, she'd be allowed to step out for sure.) Unsure what the right ruling is in this case though.

[@FayeBloodPlays]

@Phalxxx I might be misrembering the wording, but I believe it says when moving if there's an obstacle and you still have movement, you can move out of the tile you're in, if that's the case Blair having 1 speed, with any amount of obstacles she would have been able to move out of the space. In the case Blair had 2 speed left, the cost to move out of that space would be 2, so she could move out of that space but then have 0 speed left

[@OrbitalLunatic]

Oh I hope these aren't too prerecorded, because I don't know if I can handle the fundamental amount of error in the game. I hope they can fix it quickly or this might be an anti-advert for their patreon for me.

They're meant to be used for one group for multiple playthroughs. They're games that you'll play multiple times but where your actions in one playthrough will have effects in future games, such as permanently marking the cards or tiles, which will be used in future games as well, with stickers. Or writing a name on something permanently and in future plays it may come up and change something.

Took 21st century rights away from women. Making your economy crash, killing over a million Americans on purpose during Covid. Making the budget deficient soar, increasing the cost of every thing. Then crippling and hobbling Biden with Trumps control of Congress and the senate at least to the mid terms. But even with the orange turd still leading and controlling the Maga cult republiscum law makers. Biden made your economy grow, the stock exchange flourish, got the unemployment rate down to record lows, created more and new job sectors for America, making it more competitive on the world level. Broke the spine of one of the most evil world leaders Putin, and nearly destroying Russia, whilst bringing China to heel. Growing Nato and hemming in Russia ever more, growing and expanding the Pacific alliance to do the same to China. Naah dude Trump is so bad he is not a clown, he is elephant dung stained clown shoe. Stop watching fox for all your news. Expand your influences to outside the corrupt fox network. Do research, do critical thinking. If you do that you will see the truth of Trump. You need to be deprogrammrd out of one of the most evil cults ever MAGA. You will realise What he did to America in 2016, and the evil he has planned for you guys in 2025 on. You will feel ashamed and embarrassed, how you have betrayed America and your fellow citizens. It will make you want to eat a gun. So it's lucky Trump is gonna take them from you. Biden is a miracle worker for the turn around he did for America in 4 years. If Harris won America would truly have been great again. See your Republican, and now republiscum presidents all destroy America economy for reach people. It usually takes 2 terms of Democrats to restore your economy, and increase the lot of American citizens. Biden should receive a Nobel prize for the miracle he did turning over Trumps disastrous first term effects so quickly. Funny enough if Harris won in about 2 years the price of eggs would have fallen. Now Trump is not even in office and the stock exchange and your economy is crashing already, prices are rising, interest rates soaring. Everything going up by 25-200%. please stop being deluded, get deprogramned from MAGA and get welcomed back into humanity. Most of all stop only watching fox and using twitter for news both are Alt right tools and echo chambers of lies and manipulating you against your own interest for the betterment of billionaires and groups that are harmful to society. Every news network is controlled by the alt right and support Trump. But unlike fox which is not a news network it is an evil lying propaganda collective. The others actually report the actual news. Still with a pro Trump and republiscum bent. But they are ethical enough to tell you what Trump is really about.
