[QUOTE="Bloodstone Mage, post: 999473, member: 12666"] IMO, D&D wouldn't die or dry up if WotC couldn't sell books. D&D is a staple of our culture. It is so popular that people wouldn't just forget about it. One of the reasons that most RPG systems fail is competition with this popularity. D&D is a classic and will always be a classic. Even if D&D failed for Wizards and Hasbro, another company would buy it, since you already have name recognition. Another reason why D&D won't dry up (IMO) is the OGL, the SRD, and the d20 system. I agree with Monte that Wizards shouldn't be messing around with the core rulebooks. I mean, it's okay if they want to make a little money, but not at the expense of D&D itself. There's a lot of material out there that they could publish if they want money. With what I've read about 3.5 recently, my faith in Wizards has diminished to what it was after the ELH. But this is all IMO. Anyways... Cheers! [/QUOTE]
