We switched to a different system this weekend, with plans to come back to D&D at some point in the future if they release anything that interests us. The game isn't developed enough to interest us and being working adults we don't have enough time to do our work on the setting.You can always tell what direction a company is going by looking at a company's hiring boards. Currently WoTC's openings lean heavily towards digital, they have one non digital hire. This is the direction they will be going in the future.Things change and everything evolves thankfully, but this hobby is not a modern hobby. The trick for the D&D team will be to bring in new fresh blood to the hobby while keeping us old grognards interested. This is an uphill battle and one that I fear they will loose. Modern teens have many other more exciting and interesting outlets for their time. I have a very small sample group of two teenage children. At this point I don't believe that tabletop gaming can be a profit making enterprise, in the scope of modern big business, but needs to be a labor of love to succeed.</blockquote>
