    D&D General io9: 2023 Should Have Been D&D's Best Year, Until It Wasn't

    I have a pretty easy time imagining a WotC exec, probably on the Magic side of the house, saying to themselves, "OK people, battlestations! The freaking House of Mouse is coming to eat our lunch, we need to lock down everything we can right now! I ... ... we let people do what!?"

    D&D General io9: 2023 Should Have Been D&D's Best Year, Until It Wasn't

    I genuinely suspect that 90% of the decision making around the OGL was a reaction to Lorcana, rather than anything in the TTRPG space.

    D&D 5E (2014) When did you last buy a WotC D&D5e product? (not a third party or DM Guild)

    Fizban's, so October of 2021. I honestly hand't thought of how long it's been since I've bought a 5e book.

    D&D General Ollie’s has Campaign Cases for $3 and Warriors of Krynn for $10

    Something I'm not sure I've seen people point out - aren't the campaign cases and the Dragonlance board game the three items WotC was experimenting with direct to consumer sale of?

    WotC [Updated!] Hasbro Laying Off 1,100 Employees

    I'm honestly pretty surprised - I would have guessed if they let anyone go, it would have been back-of-house people.

    D&D 5E (2014) Vecna: Eve of Ruin Coming 2024

    Agreed. When 3.5 came out, my group decided to stick with 3 - in our analysis, it changed everything just enough to be annoying to run, but not enough to qualitatively change the experience of play. YMMV, of course.
