==Positives about Games Workshop== Take this as virtues that outshine the bad, being damned with faint praise or anything in between as you will... *Their art departments are (usually) top notch, with every race or faction being iconic (you can easily identify Tau, Eldar, Astartes, Lizardmen, Druchii, etc at a glance) and rich in visual details, and cool minis with great conversion potential. *GW has legitimately ''good'' customer service. If you order something from them and it gets lost in the mail or it's got a botched cast on the sprue, they will replace it without hesitation, and stick a warp drive (and a fully-functioning gellar field) on it to make sure you get it as soon as possible. **Scratch that if we're talking Forgeworld. ''Yes, sir, that 2mm mold line shift on the leg of your Terminator is perfectly acceptable quality'' *They usually have something for anyone when it comes to fantasy or scifi, their armies, while not often the most original, are still fun to collect and paint, and will often have fun lore with lots of characters, interesting plot twists and a lot of potentiality for YOUR DUDES. *They have influenced the entire fantasy genre from staples like green orcs, Meso lizardfolk and non-evil undead nations to evolving wargames and creating the modern fantasy miniature market. *Growth! They have become the entry point for many people into tabletop gaming, which in turn has allowed the tabletop industry to expand. *Sense of humour, as a company they like to joke about themselves and their settings, while they can often be grimderpy and bland they use their social media to make clear they are aware about their own thematic shortcomings (And now open more Sigmarine Chambers!). *They actually pay decent wages even to the people on the lower end of their corporate food chain, on top of bonuses when the company does well, and comply to labour union standards with little to no commotion. All around, not the worst employer you can have. *Most of their products are made in UK-based factories. So no outsourcing to developed or developing countries with unethical worker rights. Exceptions are terrains, books and cardboards, which are still produced in other countries and backfired hard recently with the Cursed City disaster. The one reason Geedub doesn't produce their plastic crack soldiers in other countries is their fear of cheap copies. So instead they only contribute to climate change by ferrying tons of cardboard and other gaming materials around the globe. At least they don't have a fetish for cardboard like FFG. Oh, and their main factory recently installed a shit ton of solar panels on its roof. Environmentally friendly Space marines, or just calculating businessmen. *It is impossible to believe that this has to be said, but at very least they never hired Pinkertons to harass someone who received a genuine shipping mistake and a made video on it. Don't believe us as to why this had to be said? Well, [[Wizards of the Coast]] actually did that.
