[QUOTE="Hatmatter, post: 8213675, member: 75077"] I can get down with this. Thanks. I do not see evidence from the last six or seven years of D&D books or hearing interviews with D&D writers that there has been a sell out. The writers and editors involved are nurturing the history and legacy of the game while making a terrific game for an enormously large group of new and old players. To be honest, with the incredible innovations of the OGL and the support Wizards shows for local game stores through their alternate covers that are only available at brick & mortar stores, as well as other community-building programs, I would say that D&D has very much not sold out. But, whatever. I have been teaching for almost twenty years and for the last 15 or 20 years, it seems like young people, if anything, want to sell out to some sexy brand. "Sell out" does not have the power it did when I was young. [/QUOTE]
