TDG: Cody's Top 100 Games 2015 #80-71

As Cody goes further down his list, more secrets will be revealed, and even more mysteries will present themselves. Can you accompany him on this journey without resorting to madness? Or will compassion triumph over hatred? Or do you just want to hear about some really cool tabletop games?

At around 6:14 you say "its being a classic" instead of "it being a classic." Thank you, Cody. THANK YOU.

Oh, and I'm liking your top 100 so far too. It has several games that are completely new to me, and I like your take on them.

I'm 90% sure that your secret identity is "Evil Cody".

I'm really keen to see which games jumped up in places, not just fell down. That, to me, is the mark of a good game -- anything can benefit from the Cult of the New, but something which sticks around and continues to be regarded better and better year from year is the real keeper.

Another great list!  I am excited to play Fief.  My buddy just traded for it so I'm hoping this winter to get in a few games.I am hoping that the Battlelore expansions breath some life into the game.  It was starting to look like it might have gotten lost on the shuffle.

Few nights ago, I have played Fief ... and then I have played it 2 more times, right away.

The night was long but the game was enjoyed by everybody even the fastest lord to be humiliated in the first 2 games (aka me).

Didn't expect to see Battlelore 2nd so early. Definitely interested to hear what you have to say for C&C(s) that got ahead of it.

Props for Shawn and Eric. Sing on!

Hey Cody, I'm curious just for a frame of reference. Do you know how many different games you've played and rated, approximately? I've rated close to 250 games, and so far I think I could only make a top 30 list before games started getting to "Eh, I like it enough" sort of territory.

I guess a better way to phrase the question is, do you feel like you really love every game on your list, or is there a point in the list where it turns from Love to just Enjoy? If that makes sense, hah.

It seems like a lot of games in this portion of the list are games that got "replaced", don't play anymore, or are maybe inferior compared to similar choices you hint at having later in the list.

I think Lords of Waterdeep moves up a ton on this list once you play expansion...unless Champions of Midgard blows your doors off when it comes out.
