Probably to obvious and the same novels will get recommended. Eg Dragonlance. Those novels haven't aged well and weren't that good to begin with.

Derp you are correct. Spellfure Flare.

Shadowmoor hexer has some possibilities with things like Eldritch Knights. Mark of the Storm adds Conjure Minor Elemental to any class. Spellfire Flare spell. Fairly mediocre but it can be aquired via magic initiate wizard. Poor man's scorching ray that combos with hex and Conjure Minor...

Well biggest most popular D&D ever vs someone at ENworld saying make my D&D. I would have preferred 6E myself but its understandable. Let's 🔥 down everything our fans like wouldn't be a great idea. Espicially they tried different and it blew up in their face. 5E fans weren't wanting 6E to any...

Its a neigh from me.

This. Attempting to fix it may actually blow up in their face.

Made them a bit more interesting vs the typical CG stereotype

Game development is horribly expensive. And movies. Easy to spend other people's money. WotC pinyin up the money pre 2004 probably would not have mattered. Blizzard had a decade of positive hype leading into WoW. Warcraft 3 was a hit. WotC has never had that. TSR didnt have it either...

Well he can do his own thing. When youre the largest rpg ever the risk of alienating your existing customers is very high. Compatibility above all is always going to limit creativity.

Gets back to the point. Anyone capable will do their own thing. Theres not much D&D offered that you can't do yourself. Warcraft blew up but it was after a decade of Warcraft 1-3. WotC couldn't do Warcraft 1-3 themselves. Well TSR as well. Anyone smart enough with the vision for something...

Yeah. It seems theres a finite amount of MMO players. Once you get to a certain size network effects kick in. Hence lots of flops.

Even WoW was kind of an exception though. Its not like you can snap your fingers and crank out a WoW type game. Because its a licensed product the peopke capable of producing a big hit will develop their own IP vs someone else's. People here seriously overestimate D&Ds appeal to the...

Savage Tide could be interesting. Early on brother betrays sister. Potential romance plot. Good characters.

That i don't instantly blame WotC for not having a WoW equivalent when theyre not a software developer?

Same. Grew up with that movie, Sound of Music, a few other 60s ones.
