The board game sucks

[Mr Fantastic]

Nonsense rules and the moment you pick a piece you have to commit.

Were they even trying?

did not try yet ..

Do we actually get anything for playing it ?

Skill points :)
And Machine Strike is awesome, if you take the time to understand the rules like any other board game out there.

PS: You don't have to commit the moment you pick a piece btw...

Machine strike can be good same as Gwent in Witcher some people really did not like that, i like machine strike and gwent for that matter.

I hate the fact I have to play the board game for achievements lol. So many games are putting in this mechanic now and it's so unnecessary.

Yeah, absolute joke, making us actually achieve something for an achievement rather than handing them us for nothing.

That's clearly not what I meant, but okay lol

machine strike is boring as heck, just like any other "board game" they for some stupid reason insist putting games these days.
Al of them should be optional DLC's and have no impact on the game it self it being progression or "achievements"

It just makes me want to play more Queen's Blood from FFVII Rebirth. Or Gwent.

[hopfbruder]

Well, don´t play it.

You´re welcome :)

The problem with this mini game is that the AI is very passive at mid and high level, making the mini-game boring to play.

Imo the best strategy is to have only 2 pieces, one very strong and another one of your choice, doesn't really matter. You can also wait until you can buy all the pieces you want near the middle of the main quest.
If you want to have an easier time with this chore, play with the Fireclaw (very good dmg, mov and rng) and another piece, sacrifice that piece then finish your opponent pieces with the Fireclaw since you can play twice with it.

Figured it'd be a time fluffer like gwent, now I know I have no reason to touch it. Wanna play a board game? Go sit down with real human beings, in person no less lol.
