- deadbunny 5y agoYou're not destroying the game, your changing future playthroughs. Sure you tear up cards but those get replaced with new ones. You change the gameboard, rules, factions every time you play meaning every subsequent game is different. If you play with the same people it makes those (hopefully friendly) rivalries across play sessions have weight and maybe even consequences. Sure you might only get 2 dozen games out of it before you've "completed" it and need a new copy but this isn't the 80s where people have a choice of Risk, Monopoly, and Cludeo. 2 dozen games can last years, if not decades.
- pessimizer 5y agoI normally am very much against the "Legacy" thing, but definitely make an exception for Risk. If you want a copy of Risk that you can play forever and never changes, spend the $2 with your local thrift store or Craigslist seller.
- distances 5y agoI've played Pandemic Legacy through with a group of friends, and yes we did everything by the book. It's one of my most memorable board game experiences, full recommendation. Got more value for money than with any other of my board games. We started season 2 too, but ironically that was disrupted by the pandemic.
