    Looks like they only sell direct and do not support flgs, hard pass.

        Nothing on their website, nothing in their backer kit for retailers, not in distribution. I should not have to go to Reddit to find out if they support flgs or not.

          I mean, sure? You’re presumably not an FLGS though, so you wouldn’t be the intended audience to learn that. Like, what would you expect, a page on their website that says “oh btw, we also support local game stores”?

          Where did you even find the information that you based your first comment on? What place said “MCDM doesn’t support local game stores”?

            I am a flgs owner. So I am the intended audience.

            Like, what would you expect, a page on their website that says “oh btw, we also support local game stores”?

            Yes, a lot of companies have a retailer page, especially companies that do not use a distributor. It directs retailers to contact their retail support, or lists their distributors, or has a link to their retailer web shop.

            Where did you even find the information that you based your first comment on?

            No retailer page. No retailer level on their crowd funding. No products in distribution. No contact info for retailers. No response to web form inquiring about retailer sales.

              No retailer level on their crowd funding.

              That seems a really weird thing to ask for. It’s crowd funding. It’s not supposed to be structured like a formal established business venture. In fact I’d be suspicious of any crowd funding campaign that did already have talk about retailers.

              No response to web form inquiring about retailer sales.

              Were you expecting a response in the absolute maximum 6 hours between me posting this video and you leaving your comment? (Assuming you saw my post, viewed it, and then contacted them the instant I posted it.)

              I think you’re expecting a very small company to be behaving like a large established one like Hasbro. And that’s just not a reasonable expectation to have. You can contact them at the retail info address they’ve shared, or don’t. It’s up to you. Bitching about it on Lemmy is hardly productive, especially when they’ve given every indication that they try to do the right thing at every turn. (Compare: their open licensing rules to the highly restrictive ones being imposed by another post-OGL upstart in Daggerheart.) It took me very little effort to find their stance on local game stores. If you actually cared, you could have put in the same effort in less time than you’ve already spent having this conversation.

                No, but I was expecting a response in the several months since I filled out their web contact form (not the email address you linked).

                  Oh, so you came into this post to leave a comment not based on what was in the content of this post, but just because you had something unrelated to this post that you had already decided was fact, despite it not being true and being verifiably not true within 60 seconds?
