We finally started it, the Pandemic season 2. Almost after a year of getting it. To be exact, this was our second game after the prologue we played ten months ago. Now, we finally managed to get the campaign started.
Our son was visiting us and naturally, we wanted to play something together. We might have way too many games as the decision to choose the game that would have suited everybody wasn't easy. In the end, it was still a compromise.
I loved the season 1 and others liked it too. Maybe it was too good and the expectations for the season 2 were high. That's why it took us this long to get the campaign started. The prologue experience left us a bit underwhelmed.
Now that there has been enough time passed it might be easier to accept it doesn't reach to the dame level as season 1. At least it still feels like it after the first campaign session. But maybe it's just different. We need to give it a bit more time to get started. I hope once we get familiar with it, it doesn't feel that bad anymore.
And I'm not saying it's a bad game. It's still good. It just doesn't reach quite up to the level of it's predecessor.
