[QUOTE="BryonD, post: 6551787, member: 957"] Again, the quote I replied to stated a flat return. If you could (reliably) increase total return,I would be right there with you. But for flat return, my question still stands. In theory. But that doesn't mean it will be true in fact. Please tell me what it is they are playtesting right now so that it will be "balanced better" and of "higher quality"? Noted. Steak places don't seem to have a hard time choosing whether to market to vegetarians. I'm not sure successfully not selling to people who don't want to buy is quite the same as successfully selling to people who do. But, again, that is beside the point. As other have stated, (and I agree) the real goal is brand value, not RPG sales. But if popularity wanes, brand value will follow. (D&D has deep roots. No claim it will just collapse) I think lack of product will push things that direction. Yet again, what is on the horizon? I'm not complaining that it isn't the D20 glut all over. The circumstance (as currently presented by WotC) seems an extreme lack of pipeline. [/QUOTE]
