ICV2 numbers from GAMA are interesting

I believe he knows what he is doing. He does challenge the ‘common wisdom’ but does so based on data rather than feelings. In a recent chat he talked about how everyone told him not to do a KS in December, but since his sales data showed them that December is their best month, he decided to go ahead anyway.

Pretty sure he could get his game into stores, so when he says that he is not interested in doing so / it is not worth the effort, I trust that he knows what he is talking about

MCDM is in stores.

MCDM is in stores.

it's not like he refuses to sell to them, but he is not trying to get them to carry it. There are maybe a dozen stores that do I believe (based on what he said)

Surprised PF2 is so low. And also no Warhammer or CoC. Interesting.

PF2 is a 6 year old game. Possible a lot of folks that already had PF2 skipped the remastered books. The remasters are advertised as includes errata + name changes to escape the last vestiges of WOTC IP. Around $200 for errata and name changes might be more then a lot of existing PF2 players wanted to pay.

He seems to be doing fine...noy sure his diagnosis on the viability of games retail is accurate in general terms.

Whereas Starfinder 2E, unlike Starfinder 1E, ify understanding is correct is totally Pathfinder compatible, so it would be attractive to any Pathfinder players who want to mix and match.
