Honestly, BoW was never the focus of anything in this thread negative by me, intentionally, more comparing the broader use of social media within the industry of tabletop gaming to online gaming and the varying levels of market focus and payoff vs how it works for another media/entertainment form.

 

I wouldn’t intentionally make a massive swipe out of nowhere at the site, community or the platforms it is on while in here; it would be a little ‘on the nose’ as it were (like breaking a toilet at someone’s house at a dinner party, if that makes sense). I love this site, I really do.

 

If it ever came across that way as a focussed snipe at BoW, it was never my intention. I just feel that excluding beasts of war, who I always felt did a really good job, the majority of personalities/channels/influences on social media in our hobby/industry are… ‘meh’. One of the points I was trying to get accross is what if companies like GW, Privateer Press and the like did live streamed Seminars like E3. I think that would be awesome, personally.
