    My personal theory is that the games LOOK more complicated than they ARE. And you, a fully functioning adult who understands plenty of things in the course of living your life, have no idea how to understand them.

    If you're not the kind of person who enjoys reading rulebooks, I highly recommend YouTube. Boardgaming is becoming super popular on streaming, and you will undoubtedly be able to find plenty of accessible videos of people playing whatever game you want, some instructional and some for fun.

    Specialized communities get a TON of mileage out of customization.

    Here I'm specifically thinking of certain game subreddits- the Destiny sub, for example, evolved to have a TON of highly useful tools, links, and information on their pages. Other communities would have pages like FAQs, Wikis, relevant art and decoration, etc.

    As I understand it though, there are no mods? So, who would create/upload this content?
