This gets said constantly, but it worth reiterating: Games Workshop being bigger than fishing is important to shout about because you wouldn't know it from government talking points, which are rarely about anything creative or artistic. Growth won't involve fish or steel, it will involve goblins.

with some of these game shutdowns i wonder if they might consider licensing out the assets, brand, etc for someone else to operate, with a revsplit in compensation. sure maybe mandate some rebranding or whatever to protect your own IP, sure. but someone else could run it and make a profit for you.

We're a no-Roblox household. The kids do get frustrated that their friends are playing it and they're not allowed to. One day, they might understand but in the meantime I'm happy to take the parent hit.
