[QUOTE="Jester David, post: 7707072, member: 37579"] They are a book and card publishing company that does the occasional board games suddenly making video games. They have as much experience with that as they do small engine repair. Completely different tool sets. They pretty much have to hire all new people (hence the "new studio"). In all likelihood this is a giant hole they're just throwing their money into... Well... most of the past games were mediocre because they were done by small studios who were still untested and trying to break into the market and make their names. Companies going from doing sequels or ports to making their own games with their own stories. This is the same, except with a team that doesn't even have the experience making someone else's products. There's no way this means we're getting a new AAA D&D RPG video game. A game like that requires a TON of money and years of development time. We're likely going to see some small stuff first (apps, a D&D version of Pokemon Go, freemium time wasters, etc) and then, maybe in three or four years, and actual video game. [/QUOTE]
