The Well of Fears

Okay, so thus far we have referred to the original games as "VHS" and the later ones as "DVD". Now we have a third section currently listed on the forums as "Upcoming series". To be fair, that only works until the upcoming games are released...

I started thinking, "Well, we could rename it '2019 games'" but that doesn't sound right. We could call it Generation 3, but then we should probably go back and make Harbingers, Soul Rangers, Third Dimension, and the Card Game Generation 2 - and the new stuff Generation 4. x_X Guh. You see where this is going, yet?

So speak up! What do you guys think of this? How would you designate things? In some ways this seems to be a Gen 3.5 if we're getting a re-release of The Gatekeeper. Should we still just lump then into "DVDs"? Should we group things by company?? We should probably get this figured out before more surprises come rolling down the line.

I feel it may be a good idea to see what exactly we are getting and the move from there. Could the Interactive Version fit in the DVD section? Yes, but I feel it would better fit in a an "App Series", should there be more than one game coming that would fit that criteria.

I often refer to the series as iterations. We could either call it the 4th iteration or the App version.

The more I sit on it, yeah. App Series might be the way to go, or even Interactive Era. VHS Era, DVD Era, Interactive Era...

Iterations could work too. I just like Generations as it seems so very 80's/90's what with Transformers, Star Trek, and all that.

Personally I didn't see an issue with "Upcoming Games" because it was a relevant and gets the point across until we know enough to categorise it

If it comes with a DVD/Blu Ray as well as the app, that'd be tricky, but if not then I'm fine with "App Series"

Should we consider merging the DVD and VHS forums and adding an App-based forum? This way we'll have a "latest" forum and a legacy forum.

I'm personally against that- the VHS and DVD forums have very different topics, so keeping them sorted like that works very well

VHS, DVD and App forums could work fine separately, however I can see why there's a need to discuss it So whatever the majority vote is, that's fine by me
