Minigiant replied to the thread D&D General Mike Mearls' blog post about RPG generations.I disagree. I am saying that TSR published D&D in an idiotic manner. WOTC's player focus sales strategy is what any publisher who was...

Like.
While it is true that you can place a lot of the popularity of D&D (and particularly the fantastic rise of 5e) can be placed squarely on... -
