[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 9467126, member: 22779"] Good grief. It's been less than 2 weeks. There isn't any story yet. Two weeks after 5e rolled out in 2014, we saw fantastic sales of D&D - because there hadn't been a new D&D book in TWO YEARS. Of course any sales looked absolutely fantastic because there was no yardstick. What became the jaw droppingly amazing story is that those fantastic sales continued for years and years and years. But, right now? It's less than 2 weeks since the PHB dropped. We still have two more books to go. How many people are like me who are going to wait until their current campaign wraps up and then buy all three at once, hopefully in some sort of slip case? The story here isn't the story right now. Who cares about right now? Hell, 4e was selling gangbusters 2 weeks after release. I know in these days of instant news, we all apparently have the attention spans of gerbils on speed, but, the story is still unfolding. [/QUOTE]
