Resident Evil Gameplay - It's Amazing What You Can Do With A Shotgun

[@davyheijlands1956]

I'm looking forward to this game. Nice to see all three games feel similar, but each has a unique thing going for it. Will pledge for sure.

[@jamescollinge5043]

I'd also probably modify the rule for corpses coming back as crimson heads. Rather than rolling just whenever you perform an action on the same square as a corpse, which are sometimes completely avoidable, I'd play it so that you roll for each corpse on the whole tile whenever you perform an action on said tile.

[@leoherks]

Love it !!! So excited ,I have all yhe previous games .Re3 is my favorite so far ...also I have Zombicides ,Prison Outbreak, Toxic City Mall , Angry Neighbors ,Rue Morgue, Zombie Dogz , Dogs Companions and finally murder of crows .

[@dav1dgear]

One thing that is different from the other RE games, this one you can really feel the survivor horror and the tension. I really like the decision to have the exploration card where you need to explore to see the whole map. It makes opening doors that much nerve wrecking. 😁

[@BoardGameCo]

Yep, I was expecting this to be ok....but I really enjoyed myself, pulled me in a decent amount.

[@MikeB-nn4nh]

Drawing 1-3 cards instead of rolling on the table seems better… I would roll 1’s and 2’s far too often…

[@GKEK]

Really enjoyed this playthrough! Not my usual type of game (dark and zombie killing) but this playthrough definitely makes me give it a second thought! 🤣

[@silvarknite7]

After playing the big open city of RE3, Im curious to see more of the tight confines of the Spenser estate!

[@BoardGameCo]

Nice, I want to dive into both :)

[@machinegundevildog5097]

Definitely getting in on this game

[@BoardGameCo]

I really enjoyed it, more than I expected.

[@AngryCharlio]

I've always thought not being able to use knife at range 0 and able to use the gun feels weird. It would make more sense for guns range from 1 - LOS and knife range 0 (or 0 - 1 if you prefer)

[@BoardGameCo]

I can hear that.

[@samardzicemir]

You can use knife at range zero. It's just not advisable since it's only 1/6 chance to hit, and if you miss, you get damaged automatically. So at range 0, it's much better to use either the gun or to run away.

[@JedrekVRoscoe]

I have the first two, and I am incredibly excited for this!!

[@BoardGameCo]

Nice :)

[@Deo_ei]

I'll be very curious if there are different potential layouts to the rooms when you open them, to add more replay-ability.

[@DuraheLL]

I'm so glad to see the map tiles are not pitch black like RE2 boardgame. That must have been one of the worst things I've ever seen in a boardgame and the only reason I did not get the game

[@BoardGameCo]

Yep, I never played the originals but I've seen this comment a few times now

[@madbart214yomother7]

They fixed the tiles in 3. Just swap the tiles and they also reprinted some of the tiles from the first game brighter as free additions for 3 or buy separately on the website

[@Terszel]

Been waiting for this ever since I got RE2, cant wait!

[@siriactuallysara]

Love this. Reminds me of the game I played back in high school. It was one of my favorite games of all time. I’m backing this all in.

[@BoardGameCo]

This really surprised me...I was expecting it to just be fine.

[@siriactuallysara]

Agreed I was not expecting to like this game, since I didn’t want resident evil 2 or 3. But I love the closed haunted house puzzle solving vibes.

[@EnjoyTheChaos]

Was it Betrayal at House on the Hill?

[@arturfel]

Worst company ever, still owns me DS stuff...

[@gamegraves]

You guys can make it!

[@BoardGameCo]

Lol it was close

[@drummerkidd12]

im glad you can see the art on the tiles now and not too dark you cant even tell whats on the tile which made setup very annoying.

[@BoardGameCo]

The art is still the thing I'm least pulled in by...but I really enjoyed the gameplay.

[@kaiyoutrinon7218]

Hey, had a quick question. Haven't watched the whole video yet but at around @31:00 you shot at the zombie in your square and landed a push, but the other zombie didn't do an out of sequence reaction yet it did when you used your knife. Is the difference that you landed a hit of some sort rather than a miss like with the knife?

[@BoardGameCo]

Yes I believe so. I think the difference is if you miss or hit.

[@samardzicemir]

Yes, this was a mistake. The zombie closer to Sherwin should have done an out of sequence reaction to move into his square after the shots were fired, and then should have attacked Sherwin as part of the regular reaction phase. It doesn't matter if the other zombie was hit or missed. Also, another mistake which kind of saved the gameplay was when Sender closed the door at 44:10 while standing on an adjacent square. He shouldn't be able to do that. His fourth action could either be to move in front of the door (but not able to close it since he is out of moves), or just stand in the corner and not use the fourth action at all.

[@sebastianotto3483]

is this digital version available somewhere? it would be very good to learn the game?

[@BoardGameCo]

It's on TTS, unsure if that's available publically though

[@edwinperez7391]

The problem I have with this game is that the miniatures are kinda low quality in comparison to cmon, awaken realms, and even newer smaller companies

[@MikeB-nn4nh]

You haven’t looked at them then..

[@edwinperez7391]

@@MikeB-nn4nh I have the previous board games of resident evil

[@patriziopastore9895]

Nice guys, I will keep an eyes on it seem promising. There will be the option to take all 3 games? Maybe in a nice box?

Not sure myself, but will be watching :)

[@juliansykes6668]

With 5 hits to kill, is there any risk in the game that a character may be turned into a zombie?

[@BoardGameCo]

Absolutely :) Nearly happened to us in our gameplay.

[@juliansykes6668]

@@BoardGameCo ah I think I misunderstood the game. I thought if you had 5 wounds you were just dead, but you mean you turn then into a Zombie. I was wondering if there was another mechanism that distinguished between dead and becoming a zombie.

[@steveowen7508]

Looks like a lot of fun - thanks for the playthrough!

[@BoardGameCo]

Anytime :-)

[@knight0fdragon]

Why are these games not available online? Would love to play these games with more people.

[@BoardGameCo]

This one isn't out yet.

[@knight0fdragon]

@@BoardGameCo i know, seeing it played in a simulation just made me ask the question on why any of the board games are not also online to play, via the simulator you guys are using.

[@rb3152]

I don't like this exploration mechanic. 1. It's exciting only at first play, after that it's just a nuisance 2. You cannot plan the table space in advance and you may have to move all the game tiles and all game bits from time to time which would be extremely annoying. You can see that this game was developed in TTS, with table space never being an issue

[@Trisquad]

I could be wrong, but I believe this is the same system used in Mansions of Madness 2nd Edition, Descent (players against AI) and Bloodborne to say a few. It is a bummer sometimes, but you can get used to it. In games like the mentioned, what I usually do is remove tiles that I know won't be used anymore (when backtracking is not a thing). Not the best solution, but a solution anyways.

[@rb3152]

@@Trisquad I believe that in the game you mentioned the tile you explore is random, isn't it? This makes each play unique. And you can chose to push the exploration in the direction where you have available table space to some degree. Here in RE, the map is predefined and always the same. Only the first time it's unknown. Similar to the video game I guess.

[@Trisquad]

@@rb3152 You're correct. I forgot about the tiles being mostly random in these games. Well... worst case scenario this will be a good addition to a RE collection (here is me trying to find excuses for keeping the interest in buying the game hahahahah)

[@Viichan777]

While the idea of revealing tiles as go is neat.....building as you play slows the game to a crawl and I'm not a fan of that. I feel like the rng enemies already accomplished what doing this is trying to achieve

[@BoardGameCo]

Having played this in person since this video, I can tell you that each tile reveal took us around a minute to deal with. I'd have to compare and contrast but overall I really liked it.

[@stefcannon2580]

I had thought the same thing, but since it’s only one tile at a time, it’ll take less time than I expected - I was worried it would be multiple tiles needing to be set up each time. Looking forward to this Kickstarter as I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the 2 and 3 games!

[@markedwards5102]

this looks really good. I haven't played either of the first two but will definitely be paying attention to this campaign. unfortunately it will be running at the same time as Monsterpocalypse. I'll just need to find a way to convince my wife to allow me to get both :D

[@guenteroelfke3005]

You dont get Both games at tje same Time. You get 1 day in the future 1, one other day the other... You "only" have to pay Now

[@RiHa_Games]

Sooo after watching the spoilers, this or Zombicide 😜 And yes you must choose 🤪 Esthetically it reminds me a bit of 6:siege, is it kind of similar?

[@sharkey1337]

Zombicide is among my all time favorite game series, however SFG RE games have just been AMAZING and are perfect for RE fans like myself. RE3 has actually become my FAVORITE board game ever, and just can't wait for RE1!

[@dogesmith7942]

[@theguy1563]

Aesthetically speaking, it looks much better than previous Resident Evil games, but the gameplay is not for me.

[@haddoc3770]

When can we play the demo?

[@swifty07837]

Absolutely cant wait for this, and loving all the new stuff and improvements, my only issue with it all, like with RE3 TBG, is that each one just seem like a massive improvement on its predecessor, but ever since playing RE3, it's made RE2 feel more watered down, like RE3 has become a replacement rather than another game, I hope that wont be the case with RE1 and RE3, as in they will both have enough uniqueness so it's worth going back too

[@MikeB-nn4nh]

RE2 was pretty linear so made sense to start there.. RE3 had a bit more stand box going on., and felt easier than RE2 (experience/placebo?).. RE1 just changes how you build the map.. instead of before you start., it’s as you play.. so you are still playing the same map everytime.. you just don’t have the map handy

[@madbart214yomother7]

@@MikeB-nn4nh Re2 was linear and feels like step 1 compared to this. Re3 was random but not really because you chose what places to explore as you went but the locations were set and not at the same time. this feels similar but more varied because you explore as you go. The best way is to randomize everything yourself and then play through it house ruling alot of it.

[@MikeB-nn4nh]

@@madbart214yomother7 the RE2 (video game) was linear.. where RE3 required you to backtrack through the map.. RE1 (board game) is still set maps per mission., the encounter tables are now a token(s)., you’re just revealing the map as you go through cards

[@madbart214yomother7]

@@MikeB-nn4nh well I thought we were talking about the board game in general. Yeah 2 was linear, so was the remake and even 3. The board game of 2 feels like base rules for 3 and 1 cause there's not much variety gameplay wise.

[@MikeB-nn4nh]

@@madbart214yomother7 I didn’t click to see what had been said already 🤦‍♀️ SFG felt that RE2 would be the easiest to do first because of that linear-ness.. the threat level would have made less sense in that one too.. so step 1 seems appropriate.. RE3 can be done playing each level once as long as you get the C item., and you might not even need all of them… definitely refines the rules., although dropped puzzles.. people would get the red gem or animal medal and have no clue what to do with it (which it has a clue either on card or the mission brief ) and think the mission might be broken🤦🏻 For RE1., you can see they’ve had to pretty much had to hang a placard over the puzzles “this is a puzzle!”.. Do like the encounter deck instead of the table., if they wanted to make some decks for 2 and 3 💷😅
