If ENWorld should ever do a Kickstarter it should be...

I would already be totally OK with a documentary/report about those 4 days of gaming madness at GenCon. Even this alone could make for a packed 45 minutes of viewing goodness.

Well, the video should not focus on one game, as there are so many man y many of them out there, but the idea of gamers, and try to cover some of the major subsections, like RPGS, wargamers, etc.

Again - you're still not showing the norm for *any* of these games.

If you want to introduce people to games, do a piece on *games*. If you want to introduce people to conventions, then do a piece on GenCon.

If you end up doing coverage of gen con, I would recommend treating it like a series of news articles rather than a full documentary. "What's new in warhammer!" "Advances in 3pp print on demand options? "Best new doodads for table top gaming"...

Like a video magazine that viewers can pick which part they want to see.


Of course, I would prefer to see quality adventure modules that are either system free or easy conversions. Something like a shared city where the main area is mapped out and authors build on it aka thieves world.

Did anyone here see any of the videos that were showing at GenCon? I know at one point while I was running a game, a woman came in and said, "Come see my movie at 6pm!" And then I went to get dinner instead.

Who would the audience be for such a Gen Con documentary?

I say we just stick a live-feed camera on Russ's head and get him into as many games and weird situations as possible.
