The Witcher: Old World Unboxing (Standard Retail Edition)

[@TotalBlank]

Game looks awesome, all the cards and pieces look very detailed! I'm not a big board game guy but The Witcher is just so entertaining that I'd go out of my way to purchase this or the deluxe version since I already own their digital board games as well.

I think in Canada the Deluxe can be got from 401 Games for around 185.00. This version is about 90 bucks I think!

Got this for 60€ from someone who didn't even opened it. If it's as glorious as some claim, I may sell it and go after a KS version. If it's not good, I will cut my not very big losses. I am ok with less plastic, if it makes a fun game better to handle and store. Todays board games use up an immense amount of storage place. Looking at you Horizon Zero Dawn All-In.

I missed out on the KS and I dont mind skipping on the fancy minis, so this video is gonna be real helpful

[@noshelfspace]

I think the monster minis the most needless extra content I've seen in a long time, only because I will continue to argue that large minis on the board just obscure what you need to see...

Nice. Thanks for focusing on the storage solution it's important to me too and, rarely covered in the typical unboxing video. This one is clearly well designed and streets ahead of games such as Arnak which gives you nothing more than an empty box.

[@noshelfspace]

They did well with this storage solution - was very happy to see it in the Standard Retail release!

Without the stretch goals expansions you lose so much content and variety, it is insane.

[@noshelfspace]

I’ve enjoyed the base game so far, so curious to know what I’m missing out on haha!

[@Biodelic]

@@noshelfspaceI am happy that you enjoy the game. Below a list of what expansion wise is in the stretch goals. There is also an additional character (Ciri) , a miniature and something else that doesn't come to mind right now. But only the expansions really elevate the game. Well, maybe Ciri too but it's minor compared to the rest. 3x Mini Expansions Monster Trail wich gives additional big monsters and new mechanics. Wild Hunt a co-op expansion where you go after four member of the Wild Hunt and they send their dogs after you. Adventure Pack, a card pack that almost doubles the cards from the base game.

[@noshelfspace]

@@Biodelic I’m going to try and find this stuff!

[@Biodelic]

@@noshelfspace The stretch goals, on the 2nd market, go for absolutely insane prices (just as everything from the KS campaign). If you can even find them as a seperate purchase. There are rumors, back from the campaign, that the three mini expansions will make it to the retail market eventually but don't expect them anytime soon. 2024ish at the very best. From my experience with the game, my recommendation as an add-on is the regularly, in retail available "Legendary Hunt" expansion. It brings a nice selection of 7 extra big monsters and new play modes (including a different solo mode). The Mages or Skellige expansions (also in retail) are specific cases. I would recommend to watch some gameplay first.

[@noshelfspace]

@@Biodelic I’m going to reach out to my Media contact to see what expansions I can perhaps review. Who knows, may be some Kickstarter items will magically appear! Thanks for all this info, been very helpful!

Is this video an unboxing? Marvellous monsters miniatures, and you did not show anyone.

[@noshelfspace]

I didn't show any because this is the retail standard version (as the title says) and it doesn't come with any....
