As an aussie, we are getting bent over by GW. Gone are the days where the stores were full of people. Cheaper to buy a good resin printer and printing your own army's. Like heroesinfinite just released there 3d print skaven army today and it looks so much better than gw models

@CaptinCrofty tbf the NDA doesn't stop people being critical or objective. I'm sure there are some people who would be more favourable because they got a free box but I've seen a few where they seem to be pretty fair in their review. Some even criticising some things in the box like the way certain models fit together. But overall seems they're happy because the contents in actually good. Clearly we won't know for sure until general release though.

Your choice of titles sure isn’t doing you any favors. Your video is about the horrible way GW treats their FLG. Which we can all agree and be more aware of. But instead your title attacks what people are excited about and buying.

The only thing i bought this year (so far), was a 5man box of the new SM termies. Otherwise, i just haven't had the money, nor the will to really keep on with this hobby for a variety of unspoken and spoken reasons. Now, $260 for a new edition boxset that i MIGHT play one game of? Nah, i'm good. I'll wait a year, and pick it up on Amazon for $100. If i'm that hard-up for something in the box, i'm sure i can find a proxy STL and print it for ALOT cheaper. 4 years ago, i'd of been SUPER-stoaked for this new box set. Funny how the economy changes out hobby time.

@Tom-bf2nm4 ай бұрын
That depends on where you are. Where I live the AoS scene is more active than the 40k one. By and large you’re right. Globally 40k is more popular. But AoS isn’t unpopular by any means.

For me, the general problem with Warhammer is that there is too much too fast. I cannot get excited for anything any more because I have such a backlog that even if a box comes out and it looks amazing, my first thought is no long, yes I want to buy, but I really do not need this. It feels like only yesterday that I bought the Indomitus 40K box. Since then I bought the AoS Dominion box, the HH Age of Darkness box, the Killteam Octarius Box, the Kill Team Nachmund Box, the MESBG Osgiliath Box, the Legions Imperialis box, the Kill Team Nachmund box and thats just the major boxes. And most of these models remain unpainted. Many not even built. When 40k Leviathan released, I just didn't care. Now that Skaven tide is releasing, I don't care. And when they brought back the old worlds, I didn't care. In fact, Old Worlds is a perfect example of where they are releasing too much too fast. They brought it out around what, Jan, Feb this year. And before they have even released all the factions they want to release, they are already, 5-4 months later revamping AoS. Why? Surely a lot of AoS are currently having fun with Old Worlds. Will they really be that bothered about a new edition of AoS if they are deep into Old Worlds. And if they do go back to AoS, then Old Worlds will take a hit again. How many fantasy games does Warhammer need to release? I just don't know why they keep releasing new games and new editions when its a detriment to the current slate of games

@@spikeybitstv So the Army painter NDA is something you are ok with? It just seems weird that you bash on GW (I don't mind that, they as a company suck) but happily shill for AP (lets be honest they kinda suck too, overpriced paints for lower quality than Citadel). It just kinda kills an confidence a viewer would have that your review is not biased.
@alanpreston18224 ай бұрын
Before you buy this argument, realize the argument is that the savings you are getting by buying Skaventide over buying the individual pieces is the basis for the headline of AOS Skaventide is set to fail. The real title should be GW continues to screw over game stores due to massive deals on box sets that are GW online only.

@scoticvsgossage93783 ай бұрын
I’d say GW thinks it’s popular, or they NEED it to be popular, so they don’t have to admit they were wrong about killing off WHFB. TOW sold out in minutes on launch. Things are still out of stock online, 4-5 months on. I think GW wants TOW to fail, so their precious son AOS can keep going. Otherwise they wouldn’t have pushed back the Dwarf release for 4 months. At the rate they’re going, we might see all the relevant factions released in 2-3 years?

Great analysis! I fully agree, you took a rational approach and went over your assumptions (50% avg, 25% under performing, 25% over performing). It’s not perfect but it’s as good as it can get from an external perspective.

If you don’t believe me, ask your local game store how they feel about this whole saventide thing.

The plastic and cardboard are pennies, yes. But not the metal molds for the plastic injection machines. Or the injection machines themselves. Or the pay and benefits of the designers who thought up of, designed, developed, and produced the data files for the minis on computers. Or the software that runs on them. That's the real cost of the products.
