This is coming from someone who hasn't played HS and doesn't have a horse in this race, but I feel like this is just a case of two groups converging to the same design because they are trying to solve the same problem.

KZread tends to auto-delete comments that link to or suggest people go to other sites. Sometimes I'm talking with somebody on here and they want a source, so I just tell them it'll get deleted in seconds and give them some keywords to look for on their own to find it. That may be what happened to his chat comments.

I’m guessing that’s why the first one got deleted. And then he was kind of being an ass for the following two comments (sorry Ryan) so I get why they’d delete them - especially given their heavy censorship stance

@tabletopbro Yeah, I think the video uploader gets special privilege to pin links in the comments. It's probably just to stop spam and keep people from posting to problematic sites, moderation on KZread is stretched pretty thin considering how much content is on here. It just happens to catch everyone else in the crossfire.

Good video. I tend to side with renegade with most topics because although the community certainly deserves some credit here, renegade owns the rights and can do with it what they want. And the constant complaining about greedy capitalism is so freakin annoying.... of course renegade wants to make money. Duh! So does everyone else at the end of the day. Also Coulda sworn i saw a comment a ways back where lee had said they gave credit to a cpuple folks but i cant remember.... may be wrong. Also i feel there are quite a few casual gamers out there too (like me, im more of a filthy casual!) and the vocal minority in discord tends to be overwhelmingly competitive and frankly can get annoying at times with all the nit picking. Tldr, both renegade nor heroscapers war council speak for all heroscapers. Not by a long shot i dont care how many custom figures they have created over the years.

I would be EXTREMELY cautious about interacting with the community. If I were them, I would limit my interaction to promoting community sites “to learn more about the awesome community that kept this game alive” but it really comes across as a minefield I’d stay the heck out of. It’s a no-win situation for them.

How come? I’m (obviously) of the opinion they should be frequently interacting with the community as the community is what’s kept the game alive and goodwill is important. I’d love to know why you’re team limit that and why you think it’s a no-win situation

I don't think Renegade is really doing anything wrong by making their own tournament stuff, and most of it does just seem like what is necessary for them to successfully run tournaments... I just doubt most of the existing community will use it. Especially since they won't be able to access the VC portion of the army builder with it, and I highly doubt Renegade will start having online events. (which, by the way, if anyone wants to participate in tournaments and doesn't have a local scene, online tournaments are already currently happening!) I think you are also combining two groups when you discuss the people that whined about unpainted and the people that think the new stuff costs two much... Many of us knew unpainted would be crazy expensive.

Lack of VC units makes sense from an official perspective but yeah definitely doesn’t help sell it to the pre-existing community. I’m curious if the extra features they’re implementing will slow down the functionality of the website. And maaaaaybeeee? I dunno man the online community always be complaining about something

Great thoughts. I agree with you.

Live react: 0:33 it's so odd to me that a company would lift work from the community without credit. I feel like you get community buy in that way (maybe worried about copyright? idk) 1:20 Community managers that are good are so rare, I feel the loss of a really good one from the total war community to this day 2:30 the plot thickens 5:10 i gotta be honest, it seems like it might be really tough to deal with an entrenched community if you're a game designer, but i guess that's what you signed up for by reanimating the corpses of these old properties

The community does not own Heroscape. It is not their property. The company will seek to make as much money as possible from the game, which leads to making an excellent game experience for everyone.

@@tabletopbro when I say every year. I mean every year. Money talks - fan rage walks.

Yep. I was gonna be new to HeroScape. I backed the old Haslab project (then it failed) and i pre-ordered when it resurrected at Renegade. Almost $300 worth or preorder product. Then i saw the wave 1 product costs, i realized Renegade let me down again (as with transformers rpg limited stuff) and i cancelled my pre-order. I was kinda bummed cause i thought the game was gonna be hype! After this video - it’s lookin like it’s just gonna be a money sink. 😢 Damn. I really wanted to get in this game too, but for me - i think bailing now was the right choice. I got other great games (HeroQuest, Fighting Fantasy, solo RPGs) to stick too. I will still watch longingly and maybe get into the hobby on the cheap later on.

You still can get into the hobby for cheap. Rise of the Valkyrie master sets go for relatively cheap on eBay if you wanna dip your toes in the water

The infrastructure is already there why not use it!?!? Probably cause the people that own it are going to want something for it. I don't forsee folks turning over stuff they have worked so long on without wanting something. So its probably easier to just make new stuff that you own and hope the community comes to your infrastructure and likes it as much or more. We shall see where it goes. Thanks for doing the doing and making the making for our eyeballs!
