Only so much as what they are comfortable with. Even if WotC is potentially misreading the market and that they could make some money on smaller projects from previous editions... if they are happy with what their current product is giving them, then they might not feel the need to take the...

Presuming they are using the standard CoS special rules... Barovia is covered completely by cloud cover that creates a continuous 'dusk'-like atmosphere, allowing Strahd to leave his castle whenever he wants.

At the end of the day... if a person has a very specific way they want their roleplaying game to be which cannot be satisfied by someone else's product... making it themselves is the best and most efficient way to do so. Only downside of course is that the circle of players willing to play that...

Yep, they ignore you, that is true. Presumably because there aren't enough of you willing to purchase enough material for WotC to warrant spending the time and money and manpower to produce it. Which of course is why they allow 3rd party producers to provide you material you all might want...

This is very true... but at the same time we live in an age where you can search and find this information so freaking easily that you have to willingly choose to remain ignorant if you can't determine or search out what most of this jargon is. I mean even if they didn't want to google it... at...

Thus far since the early fall of 5E24's releases there have been far less threads about Keyword usage confusing/irritating people than there were a decade ago from people confused/irritated by the Natural Language found in 5E14. So while both styles will have their detractors of course... the...

And have you stopped using products from all of them? No EA games? No Google search or YouTube? No Amazon shopping? No clothing from Target or Walmart? No products that say 'Made In China' at all? If you've given up all of those things and only buy from made-in-America, organic, small...

I have no idea. For all I know things produced in China could done by people right now that might as well be considered slave labor if their pay is that bad, and yet I buy stuff that gets made in China all the time. But I have not looked into any of it, nor do I ever plan on looking into it...

In this particular case... making game purchases from a game company... I do only care about myself. What other people choose to do or not do with their money is their business, not mine.

Well, you aren't me.

The whole thing seems very simple to me. Your preferred version of D&D sucks. His preferred version of D&D sucks. My preferred version of D&D sucks. Her preferred version of D&D sucks. Their preferred version of D&D sucks. All our preferred versions of D&D suck. Every version of D&D sucks...

One person's 'sadly amoral' is another person's 'rational'.

All the time.

We'll see if things actually go the way you are imagining they will. My guess is they will not. This and other small PR things will not drive away enough customers to warrant cutting production value, raise prices and pay their employees less. After all... they produced 4E, which drove away...

Of course! And that's why I didn't ping you to lock the thread so that no one else couldn't talk about it anymore. ;)

I buy products, I don't buy the companies who provide products. I have no relationship with a company prior to a transaction, the transaction itself takes a few moments, and then once the transaction itself is over I have no relationship with the company afterwards. So as long as I'm fine with...

At this point does it even matter? People who are anti-WotC have already stepped off the train. Those that are still on the train even after however many of these incidents have happened obviously don't really care (like myself). So I suspect that the number of players who consider any new...

No we don't.

Defending the marshlands from Human colonization seems the most logical. We as D&D players often have campaigns where our homelands get invaded by goblins and orcs and the like... no reason you can't do the same thing except reverse the species. So urban colonizers of the Human, Dwarven, Elven...

This is a good point, but is also probably the reason other players might argue the point-- how many DMs actually spend their monster actions snuffing out torches/lanterns or dispelling light cantrips? Some probably do, others probably don't... which is why the "party darkvision" question...
