D&D 5E Out of the Ashes: 3 to 60 Million Player's

[Zardnaar]

Sort of my go to guy about movies and Hollywood behind the scenes. Interview with John Newman. Star Wars holiday special with a D&D part.


2:40 mark roughly. 2:23 for D&D stuff.

5E apparently 3 to 60 million players.

Added bonus you get to mock the Star Wars holiday special.

Unlike most YouTubers he actually has contacts in Hollywood.

I hope you don't mind, time stamped link.

Anyone have the book yet? I'm waiting to buy the special edition. But does the book say this?

Idk how to timestamp the link.

They're plugging the new books obviously.

3(!?!) million users at the end of 4E to 60 million users for 5E? That's insane!

Here you go:

Spoiler: How to get a timestamped youtube link

For this method, you have to go to the actual youtube page for the video. Embedded videos don't have this feature.

Go to the point of the video you want the viewer to see.
Pause the video.
Click share.
The popup dialog has a checkbox, so that when someone follows the link they playback will begin at that point (like the "Start at 3:26" in the image below).

Yeah, sounds about right though: 50 million was the number last time WotC shared about it.

15 years ago D&D was niche, but among people under 30 it is mainstream pop culture in the 20's.

What is with internet denizens using apostrophe s to indicate plurals these days?

It’s not just internet denizens by even a close margin. It’s not just younger folk.

 

[bedir than]

No, D&D is dying.

Cheers. Don't really use social media so "share" is kinda new.
