Lockdown 2020: GameSpot x Giant Bomb | Play for All - Tabletop Simulator

this stream just made me realized Gamespot has better layout

Black Lives Matter. Donate

EDIT: Abby: What's more arrogant than having a journal and writing about yourself

got heated fast.

Clue Crew

My microphone... was muted for a bit in the beginning. Sorry for that. Thanks everyone that was able to donate and join us and a quick reminder that donations are still open.

Sad I missed this live but great to see you all proactively supporting a great cause.

Black Lives Matter.

I donated $100 to BLM at the end of the stream, I don't think those donations count towards the total on stream but that doesn't matter. Everyone should donate.

Also! I love Deception, it's such an approachable take on the hidden identity genre. It was always a big hit back when I could have board game nights. Maybe it will come back one day.

Edit: You know what, I will take out the subtitle as well per Vinny's recommendation.

Awesome stream. Make this a regular thing, please. :)

Black Lives Matter. Donate if you can please.

That goof is timeless @vinny!

EDIT: Abby losing it at the end was the best!

This was an absolutely hilarious stream for a good cause.

I think I see where Michael was coming from in his full round. Even though they got rid of "Noticed Physically" and "Sense of Betrayal", I feel like both of those could have helped describe the clue much better than the players thought.

Thanks for this guys. And thanks for the moderation here. Already seen shitty comments removed!

Black lives matter.

Love to see this. Keep the tabletop sim coming. Top tips:

- Hold ALT to zoom a card

- Press space to rest camera

- To draw a temporary line hold tab and then left click and drag your mouse

@vinny You can save the state of the game then just load it when you need to reset.

Hoo boy... looks like they're playing with expanded material while just trying to play a base game of Deception. Just guessing from looking at the scene tiles (I'm currently 22 minutes in the video.) compared to an all components pic (link) I found on BGG.

Just came back to flag and report some sad stuff after I got done with work but comment was already gone. ❣️❣️❣️ Much love GB family. Black Lives Matter.

I'm not surprised that anyone on this stream supports Black Lives Matter. I'm pretty surprised that Giant Bomb, as an entity, chose to use their platform to stream and raise money for BLM. That is an active choice to take a side, and I'm goddamn proud of them.

Laughed so hard at the end. I'm thinking of buying this game to play with friends over our zoom game nights.

Great cause. Great stream. Great production.

Would love to see future lockdown videos using this layout

Good on GB and GS for this. I donated the money I saved by turning off my auto-renew for PS+ scheduled for later this month to BLM. Black Lives Matter!

My feelings exactly.

Thanks to our friends at GameSpot and the GB Crew for running and bringing attention to this!

Solidarity across the US to those affected. I live in Brooklyn so this hits hard for me.

I feel exactly the same. A huge portion of this community has wedged the political 'fence' directly up the very center of their ass cracks, and this kind of action is a good, strong push.

When covering cultural issues, the GB team's frequently hesitant, awkward silence in the past has helped foster the notion that this is a safe place to be if you don't want to think about this kind of stuff, like, ever in your entire life, and the consequences of that have manifested in remarkably nasty ways. The frequent attacks on Abby and Austin in particular by members on this site were/are inextricably tied to the notion that this is meant to be a 'neutral' place, and their worldviews and, indirectly, the nature of their very personhood challenge that 'neutrality'.

I know that this attitude towards social issues has changed for the better in the last few years, and I'm enormously grateful, but this clear, plain support of a specific issue is especially potent. I hope this marks the path of a new trajectory here.

Ah, finally, a Tabletop Simulator stream! As a long time board game player I have been awaiting this day. TTS is a very good platform despite the legally gray murkiness of it all and I am happy to have had it during quarantine (and the years before, racking well over 1000 hours on it at this point).

Thanks, I needed this stream.

Edit: It was so obvious it was Ben in that 3rd round. He was so quiet and so keen to accuse abby lol

I ❤️ Giant Bomb

Black Lives Matter

Fuck, Ryan Davis

This kind of sums up my last ten years

Black Lives Matter. So proud of GB to use their platform and voices to raise money for such a terrific and important cause, when so many platforms remain silent and unwilling to help.

What a fun stream for a great cause. So happy to see Giant Bomb use their platform to raise money for an incredibly important movement. Black Lives Matter.

What a great stream! Thank you for doing this.

Great stream! More collabs with Gamespot please, always a good time.

Donate, educate, sign petitions, contact your local representation, elevate and promote black voices, and call out police brutality and institutionalized racism every single time.

BLACK LIVES MATTER. BLACK TRANS LIVES MATTER. FUCK FASCISM.

Watching Abby lose her shit on these amateurs murders was great lol...

@vinny There is a great version of Gloomhaven on TTS, that could be a fun thing to play with 4 people :)

This is rad, for multiple reasons. Thanks for supporting blm and also thanks for playing tabletop stuff on here, I'd love to see more.

Please please pleeeeeeease do more board games like this. This was a blast to watch!

Hey, you think playing a board game where you play as cops to raise money for police injustice is a little tone-deaf?

@delrueofdetroit: No.

If the game of Deception had something written into the rules like, "The objective of

the players is to single out a specific demographic of the population and brutality and systematically suppress all expression of dissent", then yes, that would be tone-deaf.

That's not what the game is about, though.

@dasakamov: All Cops Are Bastards

In defense of Tamoor, how can "accident" ever be the cause of death in a murder?

Black Lives Matter.

It looks like both donation links in the video description link to Direct Relief, neither to BLM.

Keep up the good work guys. Thanks for this!

Thanks for the stream! I'll need to look into playing this myself sometime.

After some trial and error, I finally found the right version of this on the workshop:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1870389112

This is definitely the one to use.

So it looks like the comments here have been heavily modded, but we're going to leave the All Cops Are Bastards comment? Really?
