So tg I was at the flg and noticed every table was 30k or 9th age. I ask the players why play 30k and the answeres were either " My chaos is to far behind and won't be updated" or "Did you see the wulfen/angels of death!? I'm out". Meanwhile 9th age players said what you'd expect about aos being a train wreck. Next day went to another flgs to see my friend working there and same story. Have you noticed this?
Did GW scare off everyone?

Same for me, but people are dropping GW completley in favour of Infinity.
40k still gets occasional play, but most havent made a new purchase since Calth.
This is all a good thing

I'm just alittle nervous that the beast arises, wulfen and physics were attempts by gw to scare us towards aos which they've been making look more 40kish. 40k is the money maker so why starve it to fix a failure?
Leo Rivera
Basically yes and it's hurt them.
Now they are desperately trying to undo the damage done by their utter shittiness by engaging with the community somewhat.
Too little too late I think. No way am I putting any more time, effort or money to engage in their fucktarded games.
Also they're knocking out some REALLY shit models and art these days. Premium my arse.

Not to mention the god awful rules.

Of the 3 stores in my area I tend to go to only 1 sells GW products, and even then the guy who runs it informed me that they make less than 10% of their yearly income from GW stuff.

I really have good memories of 40k and fantasy so I'm alittle sad that it hasn't gotten any better since I've left but hey whatever I guess

As soon as age of sigmar hit (and we did try it) our GW meta shriveled up and died. We used to have a 40k tourney twice a month, at least sixteen people each tourney. You'd catch people playing pick up games troughout the week, prepping for BOLScon or Rouge Trader or what have you.
Now it's warmahordes, x-wing, or infinity. There's a buch of 40k and AoS product that isn't moving anytime soon. We still get white dwarfs that nobody buys.
All that's left are a father and son who play 40k once a week, usually Eldar v Tau.
I played 40k since 3rd ed, I had a blast. Somewhere along the way though, it started being more chore than game. It stopped being fun. I'm not sure when or how.

AoS had zero impact on 40k so it just means your area is full of retards.

They stopped play GW games so I think they came out ahead in the end actually.
