[QUOTE="Henadic Theologian, post: 8425282, member: 7030526"] There is limited value to this data without having this sort of data going back to the launch of 5e. But yeah adventures Spike early, mostly bought by DMS or if they have interesting lore also by fans of lore, but them drop down as they old little appeal to players. PHB, Splat Books, and Settings books tend to be more resilient, because they appeal to new players. One thing is the SCAG is by far the oldest and the most critized setting book, which it barely qualifies to be called really, in previous editions it would be called a regional book, so it's lack of current sales should not be taken as reflective of the popularity of the Forgotten Realms. A new FR setting book that goes into more details about none Swordcoast regions with new player and DM options would out sell Eberron and CR easily. It's also interesting that despite being an older book, Eberron is still out selling Wildemount (which was a well designed book as some who isn't a CR fan, it's just a cool setting to me). It under cuts the idea that CR is the primary driving force of D&D's surging popularity, when really its just one source among many. [/QUOTE]
