Unless someone at WotC tells us, but speaking is against compagnie policy. I have serious doubts about evergreeness. WotC's top product is MtG, not a product that is evergreen. People have compared the in store adventures only for D&D to MtG's in store competitions. If they are inspired by MtG when it comes to D&D's business strategy, why stop there?The place holder theory I can buy. But your place holder doesn't need to be evergreen. Why turn down the money that comes with a new edition's core books? People will buy them. Everytime they do.Yeah, you're not every D&D player out there. Personal anecdotes and testimony make for poor arguments. The argument that they have an obligation to release more content is a strawman. No one is saying WotC has obligations towards players. Well, no one reasonable. If you get a sense that some people say WotC has obligations, it is toward profits. They have to try to make some. It is the law in the US (but it might just apply to Hasbro, the one with share holders). If people want WotC to make profits with D&D, it is because they want the RPG to survive. How many time can 4e happen?We didn't need 5e either. There were 4e edition prior to 5e. They even release some hardcover of those editions and a lot of PDFs. So why make 5e? It is not needed. Why buy it? People have plenty of D&D already. Saying we do not need more books when we didn't need 5e is ridiculus. People buy stuff that is not needed.What people are expressing is a desire for more content from WotC. Nothing wrong with that. It rubs people the wrong? I have no idea why. People are weird. Expressing a desire for more content on a popular public forum like ENworld makes a lot sense. People hope they can change some WotC high up minds. They check out forums to see what people say. Will it work? Who knows, but it is better than doing nothing.</blockquote>
