Its a Legacy game. Its not meant to be passed on. I feel its worth the price for me and my gaming group. Its an experience. The joys of putting down positive permanent additions and the tension and horror of placing scars and other negatives. The completely wrong yet oh so satisfying feeling of destroying a card and writing on the board. The shock and anticipation of opening the boxes or tabs to see what happens next. Its just not the same if its reusable. It puts the player in a different mind set.

No, this game is fine as is and I look forward to what season 2 has to offer.



That may be true but there are ways to mark a board or card or track a changed condition that don't have to be perm. The value for the price is still good either way.

I kinda lectured my wife once when she put a gift in a reusable bag for Christmas more out of convenience. That's fine for adults I said, but there is nothing like the thrill of ripping that paper off a gift when you are a kid. That's half the pleasure of getting the gift as a kid. I guess I can see your point over my more sterile idea in that light Still, I don't think marking a card with a perm marker or something would give me that same taboo thrill it gave you but I do like that idea of a changing evolving game.
