[QUOTE="Charles Dunwoody, post: 9086456, member: 17927"] 1) This whole conversation started because I can find very few games stores with the new Marvel RPG. Turns out Marvel is not marketing to those game stores from what I can find. Since I cover RPGs at game stores then Marvel is not marketing to me either. It isn't really complicated. 2) I do not cover Kickstarted games (unless a game store stocks them), POD, or RPGs only available from the creator's website. I cover in print RPGs, relatively new or a new printing in some cases, available in game stores with an occasional change up in format for a week I'll be on vacation. The second paragraph in my column always points this info out and has for months and months now. The goal of this column is to cover in print RPGs available in many game stores. If other stores or distribution options carry RPGs that is great too, but this column doesn't cover those stores or distribution options. For Kickstarter, Egg already covers those in his [URL='https://www.enworld.org/threads/rpg-crowdfunding-news-%E2%80%93-xcrawl-classics-the-real-thing-five-hundred-year-old-vampire-and-more.699018/']column[/URL]. As to comics, comics are great. But EN World covers tabletop RPGs. Marvel wants to try to sell an RPG to comic readers. Not sure why and I don't plan to cover their strategy so I'm going to move on now. Also, as an FYI and to anyone who might be wondering, I don't cover every single new RPG that comes out. That is impossible. I have to find a new RPG at a game store that also sells online. Therefore, I cover a snapshot of the gaming industry as a whole, not every single new RPG. [/QUOTE]
