My thoughts on the Arkham Horror 2e: Remastered edition (Ad Free)
There's not a lot of info out there about this, but some people have asked me my thoughts. I am excited, and I think a lot of it looks pretty good so far.

I need to watch your video on this game. I love the LCG, but I'm curious how it plays in board game form.
the board game version is a VERY different game/experience. Eldritch Horror and AH3e is a little closer to the LCG, and you can see the seeds being planted in those two games that would grow into the LCG.
Same - it was big at Gen Con
Thanks, Daniel ! I must admit I’m a little on the fence about this one. I’m not sure the mechanics are aging very well compared with more recent games, so I’m eager to see a bit more before making up my mind.
I love all the Arkham Files games, so I'm excited to finally be able to get my hands on this classic! When I got into the hobby, the consensus pushed me towards the "improved" Eldritch Horror. When I found out that this wasn't exactly the case, it was already too late! I was able to snag the base game for a reasonable price and I was tempted to hunt down the expansions, but now I'm glad I didn't! I'm looking forward to the launch of the campaign. Hopefully it won't be crazy expensive!
Yeah, a lot of people called Eldritch Horror an "improved" Arkham Horror. And while I see where they are coming from, because a lot was improved, it's still for me a pretty different game in how it feels to play. Love both dearly, of course, but I think I still prefer the feeling of AH2e, even though EH is a "better" playing game.
