His Dark Materials beyond the first trilogy? Lyra’s Oxford, Once Upon a Time in the North, The Collectors, Serpentine, The Imagination Chamber, and the Book trilogy. For those of you who have ventured into these other books, which ones are worth reading?

I’m curious because I just got the original trilogy on sale and I must confess I wasn’t aware of all these other ones until someone online mentioned them (I don’t read fantasy too often) and then I discovered this subreddit. I watched the movie from the 2000s back in the day but I have a fuzzy memory and I wanted to read the real thing, so here I am. What do you think about the extended universe?

Why even play games when you can just buy them and post the photo on Reddit?

Why would you even waste your precious time playing some tedious bullshit game about stupid birds or whatever the fuck? You know we‘re all going to die, right? Just collect them, dummy.

Thoughts on Mage Knight? Would you still recommend it?

I’m comfortable with heavy or mid heavy games so that’s not an issue. Also is the Ultimate edition worth it or is the regular edition enough?

What are your thoughts on the two LotR trick-taking games? How’s the replayability?

There’s two of them now, apparently. Is owning both worth it? Or is it too redundant?

There’s a small error in the bibliography section of this sub. It says 2666 was published in Spanish in 2005 but it was actually in 2004. Can the mods fix this small detail? Thanks.

Here’s the sources (links to Wikipedia with verified references): 2666, Roberto Bolaño bibliography.

Edit: The error has been fixed. Thank you, mods.

Do you think they will reprint it another time after this? I’m no expert but from what I’ve seen on Amazon, it has been selling really well. Some stuff* is already out of stock even.

* like Dream Chaser (both expansions)

I want to get into his novels and I was wondering if this was a good starting point.

Has anyone played Vast: The Crystal Caverns in solo mode? Is it any good?

I had mentally discarded this game because I assumed it was multiplayer only but I realized it does have an official solo mode. Has anyone here tried it? It seems more appealing to me than Root tbh.

Is there a reason why Fantasy Flight Games doesn’t reprint the Fallout game and its expansions considering the Fallout show is pretty popular?

They reprinted the LotR card game and all its revised expansions just this past week. Is there hope they might do it for Fallout as well? Has FFG finally got its soul back? Or was it a commercial failure originally?
