I hate to say it, but I suspect we'll get a Witcher redux--the first season will have immaculate vibes and cool set pieces and set up some neat conflicts, but as it continues no one will be happy with the resolution of those conflicts. Also I worry GW's kind of floaty inconsistent lore will work against them.
ENSHITTIFICATION Tbf, that already started when GW went from being a group of passionate hobbyists with a successful and much loved business, into a public, investor-first corporate business.
They have already harmed it by making it more accessible. They had to obfuscate the satire and irony more for the American market, as we can see in many changes from 3rd ed through 10th, because apparently they have the intellect of three year olds.
thanks for your content m8
My pleasure!

I agree. I haven't liked the lore for around 10 years. But I hope this will bring plenty of people into the hobby :)
What happens when Warhammer 40k goes mainstream?
The same thing that happens to ANYTHING that goes mainstream.

I completely agree. GW hasn't been the same since the 90's.
I'm excited. I love the universe but loath the game and GW's persistence on making it as inaccessible as possible.

Exactly! GW has priced out so many people! I hope OPR and other games take their spot
Just wait until gw makes female space marines then pretends they were always their just like the Custodes
I just hope the series is good and brings in new people! I’d love to see sisters of battle in it
It's going to go more and more woke...
goddamit, now 40k is gonna go downhill faster. like, it was going down but not irrecoverably or catastrophically so, but now? no turning back
There's plenty of great games out there! Check out One Page Rules :)
