Can you guys fork this or move on? The 4e DMG2 isn't even out yet so the discussion isn't needed in this thread

No idea

Sorry, I don't have any thing I can talk about at this time.

I know it will allow a custom char sheet but I am not sure about power cards. I would guess the data is part of the char sheet so it might but I am not totally sure. Sorry that is beyond the functions of my brain, I am in marketing :p. You may get the answer you want over here or try and send...

Yes we would very much like a host of 4e video games including CRPGs, Action/Adventure games, Turn Based Games etc (with or with out a VTT) and we are working with our partner to make that happen

So I talked with Chris for a little while about this. Here is what I learned: We get a lot of submissions, hundreds a month in fact. This makes reviewing the submissions a large task and providing feedback and personalized responses very difficult hence the current system of auto reply. Most...

So I went back and looked at the question and answer. The question was: Which of the following table-top role-playing games and/or electronic role-playing games have you ever played? 54% answered Dungeons & Dragons. This comes from 35 years years of table top players and 25+ years of video...

On the questions about D&D Insider, Game table etc.. Last week, based on survey feedback from fans, we announced that our next offering for D&DI will be Campaign Tools that provide stuff to help you run your games and ongoing campaigns. The idea is to create an integrated system that includes...

Awareness does not equal play. It was nationally representative but was not a census of all US households. It was a survey among a targeted demographic (for example males 12-45 who play video games). The awareness was among that targeted audience. It was on both WOTCs website and PVP/PAs website...

I am not completely familiar with how the submissions process works with Dragon & Dungeon Magazines. I don't know what the volume of submissions are like, what the average quality is, or what the criteria is for review and acceptance/rejection. My basic understanding is that the volume is...

Hi. How's it goin? Happy belated B-Day

Lot's of talk and ideas on the idea of a totally awesomtasticool movie so here's the deal. Stories: we've got 'em. Awesome stories. NY Times Bestseller stories that I know would make awesome movies. What we don't have yet is: a screenplay, producer, studio, director, cast, or budget. A...

Yes. We now have a strong precedent within Hasbro of what a well done movie can do for a brand (Transformers) and I believe the bar has been set for future entertainment endeavors. After the success of Transformers, Hasbro now has a specific entertainment executive and a group to manage the TV...

Sorry we sold out of 4 months of inventory (the first print run) of PHB2 in the first week so lots of people have this title on back order. We will have the second run in the first week of May so you should see it ship from Amazon around then.

I don't think geek necessarily translates into D&D play. Geek-dom is so broad now that you need to start to look for the pyschograpic similarities of the audience to see if connections can be made with D&D. Furries are super geeky (IMO a pretty weird) but may not be into D&D but LARPers...

I'll check it out Questions: Can't say, publicly traded and all. Be creative and look for the white space. Use the templates: there is a ton of room to add new powers, monsters, magic items, flavor, etc. If people want roleplay heavy adventures, make them. Teach a kid to play Buy a book in a...

The halo effect happens organically like you describe. Friends and family are the number one way that people learn about and learn to play D&D. The internet is second and retailers are third. So word of mouth is very important to get more people to pick it up. Products themselves can be a goo...

Folks, I know it's really hard to avoid and you are being very cool about keeping it civil but I really don't want this to turn into an edition vs edition discussion. Thanks :)

I understand. When I first joined Wizards we had the Magic Pro Tour on ESPN 2. This was before poker but in a time when things like billiards and darts were on TV. If recall MTG PT ratings were in about a 1-2% share (read bad) and was crushed by pretty much everything else on the network...

You mean mainstream sales at WalMart or that 89% of people asked recognize the name? We wont pay for this but plenty of celebrities like Vin Diesel and Felicia Day come out from time to time to profess their love for D&D Actually, this is not really true. Every day magazines become less and less...
