NOTE: At 47:19 I played the cricket field, but my reputation was only 3 and that requires a reputation of 5, so I should have been able to do so. Also, at the end of the game, my footman was still at the reverend's place, so my final score would have been two points higher.
I believe you can dig for a tile once with the useful man from the Upstaris expansion and may screen guests with the housemaid. I love Obsession, but the tile flipping with guests seems a bit overpowered and I'm afraid could lead to balance issues if only one player draws a guest like that.
I definitely understand what you're saying. I'd imagine Dan has done some testing before adding them in, but you could always choose to play without them. I think there are only two of them in the deck, maybe three.
Fantastic video. I thought i was gonna put Obsession on the back burner after playing it so much recently. But this expansion sounds great. Highly recommend U/D since you enjoyed the mitigation/flexibility this offers. Also i wonder if something could be done like playing a distinguished family member increases the solo AI's chances of getting a monument? Add a risk reward situation?
Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video! I know that Dan is working on new AIs for the expansion, so I'm excited to see what he comes up with. I'll definitely dive into U/D at some point before too long to see what it adds! Also curious to try out the dynamic AI.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video! They were actually already on my meeples when I got the game in trade, but I believe they are from LevityGames on Etsy.

Not only a great game, but Dan is without peer when it comes to the relationship with his fans and customers.
He really is!
Thanks for the playthrough! I Kickstarted the expansion as soon as I got the email notifying me of it, but it is nice to see it in action.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for covering this!
You're very welcome! It was certainly a lot of fun to do so!
Yay! Glad you did this!
Oh is that why Obsession was in the background of your last video!
Sure is!

Those character stickers look really great. Where did you get those?
They actually came already on when I got the game in a trade, but I think they are from LevityGames on Etsy.
Really enjoying this thanks. Just wanted to ask where did you get your meeple stickers? Cheers.
