The content is always top notch, and I feel like it literally can’t get any better when it comes to the actual content.Ĭontent-wise, however, the problem with White Dwarf may be that the same style of material presented each month is easily accessible via the internet, (though often not as professionally produced) and not the quality or the presentation of it at all. Will hobbyists want to lug around a crate of White Dwarves, as well as their Codex, BRB, Chapter Approved and Vigilus supplement books to each game they play?ĭon’t get me wrong, the White Dwarf overall is a GREAT magazine that is professionally presented and organized in such a manner that it is fun to read in your hobby beats lab, or on the go. Furthermore, those rules get leaked all over the internetas soon as the first hobbyist with a cell phone gets their issue, so does that content really create more sales? In January’s revamped White Dwarf, GW seems to be doing two things, getting back to their 2000’s format roots and adding in exclusive new rules for 40k, as well as AoSto entice readers to buy each issue.įrom a big picture standpoint, however, with all the rules bloat that seems to be steadily creeping into 8th edition Warhammer 40k, it’s unclear if this is a good idea for the game in the long term. Magazines that are still going strong, however, seem to offer some kind of exclusive “bonus” that people can only find from their magazines. Heck depending on who you ask, we live in an age where magazine subscriptions are becoming less and less a thing. It’s 2019, and it seems like everything can be found on the Internet.
