PineTime user here, can second that sadly. Not sure if the market is not there but a product on that market. I'd be right behind you in line.
One of my first thoughts when I saw that new livery exactly, perfect
That's sad. I really liked his reviews, also from things in the greater scope of (board) games.
someone "hijacked the steam stuff"?! how could THAT happen without Valve crushing down hard on it
Some time ago Dark Souls, later Bloodborne, recently Borderlands. I like playing video games, played all of these titles and was very much disappointed playing the board game versions. It's just they cannot reach the completeness and scratch the same itch I got when playing the video games. Most of these titles just carry the name, implement some half hearted mechanic slightly like their video game counter part and call it a day. An example of a better video game-board game I recently played was The Witcher. It's complex, sometimes complicated, but everyone at the table agreed that this game gave a closer example of playing the actual game than the majority of any other video game themed board game. The quest system in particular is of course more shallow than the hour long quests from the video game, but just reading and hearing these tiny stories kicked us back to when we played the video game. That was pretty nice. It felt very nice. Havent seen such a mix of competitive game with so much freedom in what to actual do on the board with such a cool IP like Witcher before and doubt I'll see something with so much care in a while. And back to topic, there where a lot of big kickstarter games I just couldnt get anyone to play with me to the table, e.g. Tainted Grail, Solomone Kane, ... and with board games, I'm really not much of a solo player, it's the getting together what drives me there, so I was stuck with a bunch of nice looking plastic but nothing to do with it. That's one of the main factors buying and selling games nowerdays for me, thinking about if can get folks to sit down and play or not. Bought, never played and sold so many cool looking games I'll probably never experience because of that. One of the bigger titles that comes to mind here was Axis and Allies. I'm still stuck with Root but I like the style of that so much that I wont stop bringing that one up even if we only played it once in about 5(?) years that this is waiting amongst so many other rarely played games. Damn.
The Bled for me
I start up the plex server service on my win10 main machine to stream videos inhouse to my xbox plex app manually on demand. I kill the service whenever it is not needed. I provide video files manually without any automation and torrenting. I actually don't know if this simple use case can be solved as easy as plex with kodi.
ahhhhh, that's what I did wrong, damit
