First Looks - how gameplay experience changes from first to later games (Topic Discussion)

If you have ever managed to get a game to the table more than
once, you may have experienced how it can feel different each
time. The very first game can evoke emotions that starkly
contrast with playing it for the fifth time. Games can become
more exciting or interesting with every play, or they can become
more and more boring. It's not necessarily a linear experience
either. The same game can go from being a confusing morass and
too overwhelming to comprehend to a highly engrossing battle of
wits until eventually turning into a repetitive wilderness of
tediousness. Of course, some games provide an almost level
gameplay experience with every play. They simply keep on
delighting everyone around the table, even after many plays.
