00:00 - 00:05 | so the shareholders want to see more Fantasy sales |
00:05 - 00:07 | they tell us "go get these neckbeards buying plastic again" |
00:07 - 00:10 | we say "sure, let's rethink these prices" |
00:11 - 00:16 | Fantasy has better rules but 40k is much more affordable |
00:17 - 00:21 | they say "people clearly want marines and round bases" |
00:21 - 00:24 | round bases! |
00:26 - 00:28 | ...and marines... |
00:29 - 00:31 | round bases! |
00:31 - 00:34 | one of them even said "nobody plays with points anymore" |
00:38 - 00:41 | no points! |
00:41 - 00:47 | just throw whatever you have on the table and mash it all into each other |
00:47 - 00:50 | It's not like wargaming is about army-building or anything |
00:50 - 00:56 | as long as it fits on your side of the table it all goes |
00:58 - 00:59 | screw balance! |
00:59 - 01:01 | it's about fun! |
01:04 - 01:06 | players asked about tournaments! |
01:06 - 01:08 | you should have seen those Facebook comments |
01:13 - 01:14 | I just couldn't care any more! |
01:14 - 01:16 | I'd told them to go figure it out |
01:16 - 01:20 | "let me know if you need any help" |
01:21 - 01:27 | "If you are concerned about rules then you're probably not going to enjoy it" |
01:35 - 01:36 | they told me |
01:36 - 01:39 | measuring from the model damages the paint |
01:41 - 01:44 | the shareholders really loved hearing that |
01:44 - 01:47 | it reminded them of finecast, people rebuying miscast miniatures |
01:47 - 01:49 | and our overpriced refurbishing tools |
01:50 - 01:53 | so we immediately released this new paint |
01:54 - 01:56 | extra shiny gold |
01:56 - 01:58 | 3.50 quid for a pot, and you need two of them |
01:58 - 02:02 | and 17 quid for the can, why not! |
02:05 - 02:08 | go make the marines extra shiny boys! |
02:10 - 02:11 | and then to think... |
02:11 - 02:14 | we told them the End Times was just the beginning! |
02:15 - 02:17 | we sold them piles of hardcover books |
02:17 - 02:20 | then made everything obsolete again |
02:21 - 02:28 | and don't get me started on what we replaced them with |
02:29 - 02:30 | ...staring contests... |
02:30 - 02:33 | yes! and measuring each other's neckbeards! |
02:36 - 02:41 | imagine them in their basements sizing up their moustaches |
02:40 - 02:44 | with blue measuring sticks |
02:50 - 02:55 | that sure is going to appeal to a younger audience |
02:56 - 02:59 | ...that's what the shareholders wanted right?... |
02:59 - 03:04 | I have no idea who's supposed to buy this |
03:04 - 03:09 | we put some interns on the warscrolls |
03:09 - 03:11 | didn't even tell Forgewold about it |
03:16 - 03:20 | they're as confused as everyone else |
03:23 - 03:26 | including the retailers |
03:31 - 03:36 | and then we wonder why kids prefer video games these days |
