I have really (nor does my group) NO interest in changing our D&D game to any other system. As much as I admire MCDM I have no immediate desire to switch to his game. I too fear that history is repeating itself and it is inevitable. TSR was known in its heyday to be highly litigious and it fractured the community, but then the community rallied again only for it to repeat itself. The good thing about being as old as I am is that this naughty word doesn't matter to me. I always feared that D&D was becoming too popular and Hasbro got greedy.My predictions:My group and I will continue to play D&D 5e and adopt the 2024 revisions;the 2024 revisions are not going to fundamentally change anything in 5e, but it will not sell as well as the 2014 rules;My other group and I will continue to play Vampire 5e and Werwolf 5e;I will go to GenCon for the first time since Covid;I will buy things to support the games Im currently playing.Oh, and yeah, I'll keep buying dice.</blockquote>
