why don't they just make a videogame based on Arkham Horror so that people don't have to read a 72 page rule book?
Arkham Horror
Because Arkham Horror is objectively one of the worst fucking board games ever made.
see this
>bitching about the size of the rulebook
>not about the horrendous setup time
>not about the shitty upkeep dragging the game out and making it take forever to pass turns
>not about the extraordinarily inconsistent play times
>not about the ridiculous amounts of random chance that make player decision practically worthless
>not about the fact that one player will inevitably be the star while everyone else does Jack shit other than hope to stumble into something worthwhile
>not about the fact the game practically promotes one person to boss everyone else around, practically making it a single-player game
The real question is why are you playing outdated meme games.
Of course, if you have trouble with Arkham despite the hundreds of resources available to help then maybe board games are too hard for you.
Eldritch Horror > Arkham Horror
Set up on the table next to me right now. You can't play with fucks OP's pic though. With just me and one other player who I know isn't a retard it goes really quick.
Because it's a social game that isn't a great game on its own merits and would be pretty boring to play outside of a social setting.
/tg/ shit that should've gotten vidya a long time ago thread?
Pic related as proof; there are a million other solo activities one could do.
