I think “new normal” is just that companies have the ability to correct mistakes or make elements that perhaps are not clear when they publish. I think it worth recalling that previous games had issues as well often rules that were not clear. Heroquest has some really ground breakings ones and is not balanced as a game. I dont think then as kids we cared perhaps because we had no way to fix the problem.

I think it is good that companies can reach out and provide updates so it is clear. Of course we can choose to consume that detail or not.

Personally I love physical rule books and cards over digitial media so I understand the pain of having printed error sheets or having to look at your phone for the correct details. However we just have to accept this is the world we live in. We cannot stay in the past and frankly the advantage of the technology has opened up tabletop gaming in ways i could not have hoped for i the past.

I forgot to ask now that perhaps people have played the game a little bit what are the thoughts.
