The underlying problem with this question is that high level characters in 5E typically have so much gold that costs are irrelevant.

It seems like the OP covered all of them.

For that reason above, WoTC and D&D have nothing to worry about. Folks here are the exception. 98% of D&D players don't care about all of the various WoTC controversies, and will continue playing D&D no matter what. WoTC doesn't really even need to create a walled garden to maintain its market...

My current PF2 game is an all dwarf party, by coincidence. I asked everyone to create a character, and they swear that they didn't get together and plan it.

The ultimate factor that will determine if a non D&D TTRPG will be successful is if people can find other people to play with. It may be a great game, but if your circle of friends isn't interested, or if you don't have a reliable way of recruiting non local folks online, the game will not...

It's the end of a golden age for WoTC, not for TTRPGs. But you don't need a golden age to be successful/profitable. They will likely find ways to extract more dollars per capita from existing players Whether people will tolerate that in the long run remains to be seen.

I predict that WoTC will lobby for a new law that gives personhood to AI. They will then forcefully remove all of their artist with assistance from the Pinkertons, and hire an AI to do the illustrations (that can now be legally regarded as a person), allowing them to technically keep their...

Thanks!

During our last game a player wanted to take an attack of opportunity, but I couldn't find it referenced in the remastered rules. I know about reactive strike, but as far as I can tell, it is a fighter-only feature. So, if attack of opportunity still exists in the remastered rules, where is it...

D&D 5E (2 separate campaigns) Pathfinder 2E and 2E remastered Shadow Dark Blades in the Dark Fallout 2d20 Some game from Matthew Colville where you played against an endless stream of enemies to see how long you could last.

I agree. People tend to focuse on the income statement, but really should be paying attention to the statement of cash flows.

We coordinate through texting or email. The group is pretty good with responding (seconds to a couple of days). We have a set time and day of the week, and we just indicate whether we're available to play. There are 6 of us in total (1 GM, 5 players), and as long as 4 players are available...

They extracted every last ounce of interest in the series with 11 seasons and a movie. There already was an attempt at a reboot a few years ago. I don't think it lasted more than 2 episodes.

To make the quarter or the year look good.

I worked for a venture capitalist firm for 3 years. Deeply buried in my spreadsheets, I was mostly insulated from the reality of the impact, but on one assignment I was told to meet the boss on-site. I watched as the HR rep handed out pink slips to many of the men on the shop floor. This was a...

It may have been to the people who were laid off.... People are often laid off often due to the poor planning of the Execs who (rarely) have to face any material consequences for their decisions.

Yea, I know why corps do it. But people who say "oh it's just what corps do. "Corps will be corps after all" sound like they are saying it's no big deal if you read between the lines.

Strawman.... I didn't say that. I said shocked at people either defending WoTC or acting like it's no big deal.

I'm not shocked by the layoffs. I'm shocked by the people either defending WoTC, or acting like it's no big deal.

The Ethisphere award. It was Hasbro, not WoTC that purchased it. However, given that WoTC is their most profitable subsidiary, and considering WoTC's bad press over the past year or so, I'd say it was likely a move to benefit WoTC (essentially good will by association)
