The time I skipped reading the rulebook for a complex Euro game and just watched a 12 minute video instead
Used to slog through 20 page manuals for 40 minutes before playing but now I pop on a teach video during setup and it cut my prep time in half, has anyone else found that video tutorials click way faster than text?

Used to be a rulebook purist myself, thought video lessons were cheating or something... but after trying to parse a dense Lacerda rulebook for an hour I gave up and watched a 12 minute teardown. @ellis.hayden you're onto something, skimming might be the real way most of us learn anyway. That video explained the turn flow and scoring in way less time than the manual ever could, now I check a teach video first and only look up specific rules if something comes up during play.
