I extend this to most board games as well. And I find people "eager to teach me" often are "eager to play, you're slowing the fun down by not immediately picking up the fundamentals" and I get bored because I don't know what's going on and then players cop out with "just watch, you'll pick it up." No, Frank. I have six cards in category A in my hand, three face down in category B, six glass pebbles, one plastic pyramid, and staring at a large cloth with hexagons and two dice with Japanese Kanji on their faces. Two of the players are fighting about what sounds like K-pop album names, and using abstract nonsense like they are actually explaining.
"You know six knuts make one Orin, right? You have six knuts and one Orin in front of you, got that? Now the lead sanu, thats Jim, has the advantage of Doshuikk because he's on the golden path here. You got that? So you need to find another player to use THEIR Orin so you can pass Jim and bargain with knuts OR use your Orin to pass the time gate nearest to you, your partner, AND Jim. But if Jim passes the rainbow bridge, you'll have to start over. That's why--"
Oh, I'm sorry, I stopped caring hours ago. I see literally zero point in this last hour to give a fuck about any of this.
Board games are a very good test at your abstract learning ability. Like going into a new job having no context.
This reminds me of Bamboozled from Friends.
This game is stupid.
This is the best game ever.
