Knights & legends - From a Hobby Into a Best Seller!

Nothing personal at all. I don't know you.

I'm just rather intolerant of abuse of the DMCA, specifically, spurious takedown notices, and seeing an out-of-place notice on your website raised some significant red flags.

Your refusal to provide a straight answer about the nature of those notices, coupled with Googling about you, your game and your behavior simply confirmed my suspicions that you have a tenuous grasp on copyright law, and, in general, you respond poorly to any criticism or questioning that isn't flattering.

Well, thanks for your feedback. Protecting my IP is something I take pride in, and DMCAs are a big deal. Just because there's a statement on the game's website doesn't mean it's being abused. It's rather educational in my opinion. That's all there's to it. Only pirates and infringing abusers would be tormented by it really. I'm against naming and shaming so unfortunately you'll never publicly hear me mentioning any sources.

On a special note: It’s ok not to be perfect, I take pride in being imperfect.
My game is also imperfect. As for worries about behavior, everyone’s gotta take a leak.
No regrets on my end. There’s nothing you can find on the web that would make me feel shame or regret.

q. How did you get into TRPGs?
Growing up as a child a came across a kid who played D&D and I found it pretty cool. I Always had a big imagination, although I was out the tabletop RPG scene for several years when I moved to the US. That contributed to the fact Knights & Legends is a truly unique tabletop RPG game.

q. What makes it unique?
Its exclusive Ludens game system or LGS.

q. You don't reveal much about the game, why?
The game is so unique, I'm really scared my ideas of nearly 5 years would get stolen.

q. Regarding piracy and misuse of your product, there are rumors of you taking actions against infringement, care to mention couple sources?
It's true I had to take action, unfortunately. Only because I take pride in my work and protecting my legacy. You'll never see me mentioning sources though. I'm against naming and shaming.

q. There seems to be some hostility towards you in one single spot on the Internet, why is that?
I've been a victim of so much bias for being born in South America. Not only that it's really tough to keep moving forward when you hear all kinds of harassment towards you. But I did it, my game is now in the top 8% best selling titles. I've moved on past all the claims that I didn't know English, poor grammar, etc... I was even called Autistic, in which I quickly moved in, urging the public to be a little more sensitive about the topic. Autism is not something to be made fun of!

q. Are there any big releases coming this year?
Right now I'm focusing in providing weekly/monthly free supplements, after everyone catches up I'll focus in another big release.

q. How do you keep the prices so low?
K&L was never about the money, over 40% of earnings were used to purchase artwork for the game and its Supplements.

q. Do you consider yourself a role model?
Absolutely! Never give up on your dreams.

q. Is there anyone you take inspiration from?
Sure, Hideo Kojima, a genius and very popular game designer. Quentin Tarantino, famous movie director/actor, he speaks his mind.

Ps: I'll be releasing an official update for the exclusive LGS this week. Something special to those who gave me proper feedback. Advanced sneaking and luck will be coming to the table. Stay tuned!

This place has excellent reviewers. You should reach out and send them some copies of your game.
I'm sure that would be refreshing for your brand and not at all hilarious.

I'm surprised you're selling your game at all - someone might buy it and steal your ideas!

Moving on, Silver status on DTRPG accounts for a little over 8% of titles on DTRPG. It does not mean that your product is in the top 8% of best selling titles on DTRPG.

Per current ratings from https://www.drivethrurpg.com/metal.php, Adamantine, Mithral, Platinum, Gold and Electrum (all better selling than Silver) account for the top 6.11% of titles on DTRPG (i.e. those levels have all sold better than Silver).

As such, being in Silver status means you're in the top-selling 14.44% of titles on DTRPG, not top-selling 8%.

And, PLEASE, do share a link to any evidence whatsoever that there's been any bias/hostility towards you for having been born in South America.

Yeah. Send a review copy to Pundit. I'd love to see his review of this game.

Nothing against Pundit, in fact I see his posts everywhere and enjoy them very much. Certainly would like to hear his opinion. Unfortunately "free copies" are limited to featured reviewers on DTRPG.

Not true. I'm not sure how it works, but I get free review copies all the time from publishers, and I'm not a featured reviewer. You might want to check on that.

Hello Mr Davenport, been wanting to chat for a while, just took a look at the schedule but it's hard for me. I'll pm you a free copy right now sense I know you're legit. The reason I keep them exclusively to feature reviewers is because not everyone is cut out to leave a detailed and accurate review, plus sales, etc... You know... hahah free is good, credentials are great.

Dan Davenport · March 06, 2019, 08:04:48 PM

Nice, thanks!

And please feel free to stop by now if you'd like to chat. We're always open for general chat when a Q&A's not going.
