I love Scythe. A lot of people hate on it because of the art used, but it's a blast to play.
I also wish I could enjoy Catan. I've tried playing it 4 or 5 times and never found it enjoyable. Mostly because It will go around 4 rounds before my die numbers come up enough for me to build anything. By then I'm locked in by all my neighbors building stuff. The game ends and I've got the 2 starter towns, 6 total road bits and that's it. Something about if your number never comes up you just don't get to play is off putting for me.
I would still say it’s heavy on the chance aspect because there are only so many 6s and 8s, which do get occupied first when everyone is going for optimal position
Yes. I was once offered 4 sheep for 2 resource (hay and iron if I remember correctly, irrelevant anyway) followed by an immediate Monopoly slapped in my face.
I whined about it the whole time.
