每年的SDJ德国桌游大奖关注的人很多，今年还有特别不NICE的事件发生，导致一大堆人想要抵制，但是关注度有增无减，但是作为同等水平的gencon颁布的奖项，关注程度就很一般了。一来本身大家对于美式游戏的喜好度也没这么高，二来TRPG在国内的发展还是在很初级的阶段，三来源于美式游戏的剧本杀，似乎已经是一个断崖式下坡路阶段了。
那我们一起来了解下gencon吧，前情提要可以关注桌游新闻| 世界第二大桌游展GENCON即将开展！今年的gencon规模，创下了历史记录，71000+游客，540+参展公司，可以看看现场小伙伴拍的图片！
just for play，自1967年以来，1968年举办了第一场聚会，这场盛宴已经持续了50多年，今年更是D&D的50周年聚会！

除了上述的奖项，GENCON还有个很受瞩目的奖项，是业内杰出贡献奖The Diana Jones Award，今年一共有5个组织及个人入选，最后获奖的是United Paizo Workers工会。作为Paizo, Inc.（负责发行Pathfinder和Starfinder角色扮演游戏的公司）的员工组织，United Paizo Workers成为桌面角色扮演游戏行业首个此类工会。该工会隶属于美国通信工人协会的CODE-CWA项目，致力于支持科技和游戏行业工人的组织变革。在获得Paizo管理层的自愿认可后，于2023年成功签订了与Paizo的第一份工会合同。通过工会，Paizo的员工获得了加薪、福利扩大以及更全面的工作保障。工会为员工提供了发声平台，使他们能够向管理层表达需求，并对工会成员关心的问题发表意见，为桌游行业的进步做了巨大的贡献。
