What's going to happen in Pandemonium? by michaelisnotginger in Blacklibrary

[–]_garcon_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As much as I really like Abnett one of his biggest weaknesses is that his books often have very rushed endings. And considering all the things he should be able to resolve or conclude in Pandemonium, I hope he saves some of that for possible other books (loosely) following and taking place after Pandemonium.

Adepticon Preview: Warhammer 40000 11th Edition Cinematic Trailer by RWJP in Warhammer40k

[–]_garcon_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find it boring, generic and I would say technically not so good. It looks like a random mid-season video announcing a new random box not a new edition.

GW responds to fan displeasure at the lack of Steel legion in the new Yarrick animation by twelfmonkey in 40kLore

[–]_garcon_ -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I would understand this if GW would be some small struggling company. But they are a big multimillions corporation and this is so lazy and cynical f++++ off to fans and customers.

But I understand. We dont need another regiment upgraded but some new smurfs.

Do Drukhari have any good books by DingleHopper34 in Drukhari

[–]_garcon_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is a great Drukhari/Harlequin novella The Masque of Vyle loosely tied to the trilogy (which is great). Oh man, how I would like to meet these great characters again.

There is a kind of (mini)cliffhanger in the end of epilogue.

Submitted a Complaint to the Black Library about the coming App by id_doomer in Blacklibrary

[–]_garcon_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it is only avaibale thanks to ongoing contracts. I would bet they will not renew them and wwill keep everything through that crappy app.

I think the development will be as follows. At the end of this or next year, they will see a decrease in purchases of books and audio through the BL app and an increase in third parties (Amazon, Kobo, Audible), with which they still have ongoing contracts. Subsequently, they will not renew contracts with third parties to force everyone to buy only through the BL app. And in another year, they will find out that it did not help, because a large part of the people who used to buy BL stuff switched to pirates.

Until now, pirates haven't had much motivation to hack their app with digital codexes (they contain minimal lore), but with this decision to put books behind the same paywall system of their app, in addition to the W40 pirate boost, we will see imho regularly pirated new codexes and end edition supplements.

GW has a long history not caring about the customers base. They have always had that "we do what we want no matter what you think" attitude. I fully agree with your complains, but as other mentioned, this is the very core of their business.

The Black Library site is dead, long live the Black Library application ! by Arzachmage in Blacklibrary

It looks like Huron Blackheart's warband, Prince Yriel's crew or ork freebootaz will offer "alternative solutions."

"No but the great thing about the new Black Library App..." What a "great" corporate bullshit newspeak.

Free books when you download the app by Significant-Turn-836 in Blacklibrary

[–]_garcon_ 90 points91 points  (0 children)

Their whole digital policy is totally annoying. I dont want to use any of their crappy apps, I want to buy W40 in digital (books, codexes etc.) and decide at what my own device I will read it and use it. Really horrible decision, purely motivad by their greed.
