Most games here on BGA seems to be with drafting?

Post by 0rsk1 »

Am I alone with my thoughts that I really love Agricola but don't like too much about drafting. Yes, I know it makes game more balanced but I'm pretty happy with luck of draw with most games so why not this one too. IMHO drafting cards is huuge brainburner at the start of the game when you have to read 7+6+5+4 occupations and then same for minor improvements. In my games with friends it's either just 7+7 cards or maybe "choose from 10->7" just because I'm finding drafting a bit overkill. For super competitive people I can see why you'd do this but I'm merely a competitive player and can accept (and perhaps even prefer to have excuse :D for bad draw).

You can configure and disable drafting when you start a game. So it depends on the people actually playing the game and less on BGA :D

Most people here like the draft, and so most games have it.

You're welcome to start a game with different deal options including games that don't have a draft if that is your preference, but I do suspect you will find it a bit harder to get games.
