Touching the night talk, every day nonsense and games-related, ghosts, new things.
Figure Xiao Luo configuration. When I wrote this word, my first reaction was "4090", even though I didn't. During the Spring Festival holiday, I stayed at a friend's house temporarily, and used his "4090" to play "Cyberpunk 2077", which was so smooth that I felt that the night city was bright, and I was the brightest star in the night sky when I was wanted by the terrorist team. "The highest configuration of the game is friends", everyone knows. This "highest" is reflected in the fact that it is hard to find, and there are a lot of friends, but it is not necessarily enough to get together enough friends to start a certain game, and it has to be the right time and place and the right people are indispensable: everyone has time, the equipment has to keep up, and they are willing to play together.
As a player who is not used to passers-by, there are many multiplayer games where I "want to get into the pit and can't" - if no one plays with me, then I won't play. Board games are one of them, as they often need to be played offline, making it more difficult to get together than video games. Although there are "board game simulators" in this world, I always feel that the charm of board games will be dimmed without everyone sitting together. For many years, I tried to grab some friends to play, but no one was very interested, or the situation in previous years prevented me from meeting, so I put it on hold. Until a while ago, I asked my friend Y out for dinner, and he asked me: Can I call a few friends and play board games together?
I replied "yes", which seemed calm on the surface, but in fact, if a human had a tail, it would have been a fan for me. He listed a long list of board games that I had heard or hadn't heard of, and said he would bring them to play. I said "I'll see you then", thinking that it wasn't time yet, and that time in reality couldn't skip must be a failure of "Earth Online", otherwise a stick would knock me out and wake me up when it was "time".
On the day, I arrived about 1 hour early. On the one hand, I live far away, and on the other hand, I am in a hurry, and I always feel that the agreed place will pass, and the time will pass faster. "The Little Prince" says: If you say you come at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, from 3 o'clock, I start to feel very happy, and the closer the time gets, the happier I feel. In this way, as the first person to arrive, I was the happiest for the longest time. Since everyone isn't coming, I can eat and wait, and when they do, I'll be happy and full – the logic is simply flawless.
If someone arrives first, the others are likely to hurry up, so we quickly waited for Y and his two big board games to arrive, and accurately recognized me as an idle, sculptural figure among the diners, and greeted me warmly. Not long after, my friend Z also arrived and started to communicate with Y about board games, I couldn't interject and decided to continue playing the table ornament. Later, X, who was wearing the clothes of Kojima Studio's peripherals, came, and he conveyed a feeling of "I'm here to play games" from afar. During the small talk, I mentioned that I hadn't played Metal Gear Solid: Phantom Pain yet, and he grimaced.
X and I both had close to zero board game experience, and Y and Z, who were in charge of explaining the rules, kept repeating: "Play one game and you'll understand." This is probably the common attitude of old board game players towards new players. We played several games that day, and I didn't win much, but I learned a lot about how to play.
The game is fun, but more important is the people who play the game together, and the uncertainty and surprises that everyone brings make each game a new adventure. Because the charm of board games is to communicate, interact and compete with different people face-to-face, colliding with diverse sparks. It was at this point that the phrase "the highest configuration of the game is friends" came to my head as a matter of course: ah, indeed, of course.
Mickey in Snow Time is so cute, I'm the gray one, the last one, and it's almost 10 p.m. without newbie protection, but the brain that has been active all afternoon is not sleepy. "It's been a long time since I've been so happy. "In the merciless cold night breeze of Beijing, on the way to the subway station, I said to my colleague Z.
That's good. He replied.
