I bought (and then sold) Mansions and LOTR which require an app and it's just not for me. I don't want any board game that requires an app.
I'm also not a fan of the artwork. The artist did good work but I don't feel it fits Descent.
If the characters and physical components of this edition could be used in Descent 2nd I might have considered it just for that.
I was excited in that first moment when I saw the announcement for this game... but I'm not now. I have really enjoyed supporting FFG and I'm sorry that I'm not into this. It's really disappointing.
