How do you learn a new game? What do you prefer about this method?

I usually learn from the rulebook, sometimes check "how to play" videos if I'm left with questions. Learning the game from another player is ideal but in my group it rarely happens. Picking it up as you play is a myth.

Not a myth. It’s how I learn most games now.

I'm very curious! Do you mean getting people together, taking the shrinkwrap and learning on the spot? I've had such a bad experience with it if the game is somewhat complex. People zone out.

You gotta have the right group and everyone be aware that’s what is happening. I’ve done it loads of times. New game arrives, people come over, we try it. Depends on th game of course, but I simply don’t have time now to sit and learn a new game on my own. It’s worked well for us

If you wanna do it together at some point, let me know. I’ve done a few videos of it too which have been surprisingly popular.

That could be fun! Wish I had such a dedicated group. Nowadays I only do that when I have a chance to use a game library/café.
