Pandemic is really high-variance in my plays, and it irked me for a faster cooperative game to be THAT swingy. I love Arkham Horror, which also has some swingy cards, but the difference is that you always expect something terrible from the Mythos Deck, and it never just says lol everyone loses. yeah, you can lose pandemic (all of these games, really) with no recourse due to an unlucky infection deck or bad sequencing of hazard cards in your draw deck. doesn't necessarily make the process much less enjoyable to me, since winning still requires a combination of skill and luck! --- yet all sailors of all sorts are more or less capricious and unreliable - they live in the varying outer weather, and they inhale its fickleness <cite>SeabassDebeste posted [p:898298500] in thirty-one...
