Codex 2012 Serpent in the Staglands Dead State Divinity: Original Sin Project: Eternity Torment: Tides of Numenera Wasteland 2 A Beautifully Desolate Campaign Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Could somebody finally purchase the shambling corpse that is GW and whore out the IP properly? This is just too painful to watch.

Ratings disabled? I guess the general audience took the news just as well as the Codex.

They could have done an adaptation of the FFG board game, probably in collaboration with FFG since those have been testing the waters in terms of digital conversions. But nooooooo!

I guess that they are just trolling their fans as much as possible before they go completely under... No other explanation makes sense any more.

What's with the whole GW going under talk? Do they really have problems or is it just wishful thinking?

Their profits have dropped, so if that continues at the same rate they will eventually start losing money and go bankrupt. They're not in any immediate troubles though, far from it.

Well, if that video about their annual report is any true then it may happen after some time. Probably some bigger company would just buy them or ip alone to leech until very end.

This looks like a cheap starcraft knockoff.

If you're gonna make another RTS, why not just make DOW3?

Maybe they should stop charging fifty fucking dollars for a box of plastic, because at this rate the only buyers will be die-hard enthusiasts and children with rich parents in five years time.

I thought that was always their market.

Wow, I didn't know Wh40k could fall even lower than Rites of War and DoW D: .
Those two were good games :rpgcodex:
They may be good games in gamey sense, but they suck as representations of battles in Wh40k universe. But then this may also turn out to be a good gamey game.

To be honest, the wargame itself sucks as representation of battles in Wh40k universe. Epic gets it about right.
