Hello Guys,
I really love Star Wars: The Card Game. It's my favorite card game by far. But our local community just can't seem to latch onto this game. A couple of years ago we had over a dozen people interested in the game, ranging from casual players to tournament champions. We took road trips to store championships and regionals in neighboring states. Since that time, interest has steadily declined. I feel like getting new players interested in X-Wing Miniatures is much easier because A.) The game appeals to a wider range of people, B.) The dogfighting mechanic fits so perfectly with the Star Wars universe, C.) There are always plenty of unused ships making it easier for a new player to borrow their way into the game before fully investing in it, D.) Not being able to mix factions makes it even easier to let someone else borrow stuff, and E.) The interest in the game is still growing in this area rather than declining. Product Animation are used to showcase the key info about the product and its benefits. It seems as though this is the major downfall of the LCG model, where the game reaches a certain point where veteran players start losing interest (usually because they keep losing games) and new players can't afford to jump into the deep end. Then FFG releases a new version of the game or a different LCG altogether and players jump ship en masse.
Thanks
