As cults go I'd say this one is on the very low end of the spectrum to be worried about.

I mean, yeah, in that thankfully they’ve translated their delusions of grandeur into writing the shittiest lore for orcs imaginable and then saying “this should be a game of some sort!” and not into creating a religion where Treadway is the reborn Christ…

They’re more the “send us more money to help spread the gossip!” (And what is a failed video game and TTRPG but a missionary trip deep into gamer country to ask if they’ve heard the good word of “Screaming Monster Eagle God Beast the Holy Paladins Worship for Some Reason in This Lore”) kind of cult than the “We gotta kill the mayor because he won’t approve the zoning license for out temple!” kinda cult…

But still a cult’s a cult.
 
Yeah - cult mentality takes a lot of faces - some relatively benign, something horrifying and dangerous. The results are not the same, but the symptoms generally are.
 
Saw the Horsemen display at Zolocon. Just the 6 kickstarter figures, or the different looks of what they announced, (I don't care enough to do the research.) Lots of things to sell you. So at above the shelf in a plastic box was the figure and below the purchasable items. Kind of like how Hot Topic does (did?) their shirts. Huge area, not a lot to it though. Didn't really stop and talk and didn't really look around. I was a little pissed that right before I got there they sent me another e-mail about something to purchase instead of my pre-order shipping notice.

Side note: A lot of the little independent toy companies were showing figures designed to look like the proportions and articulation of class MOTU (5 POA). There were more at least three large displays for those types of figures. I wonder if older more niche collectors like that over realistic proportions and articulation. Something for me to watch for I guess. It's just interesting that there is a ton of new product for that collector community all of a sudden.
