[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 8210897, member: 6716779"] I don't think the entire rpg industry gets 100 million in revenue let alone profit. Less than 70 million iirc not that long ago. People here get excited because they bought an obscure game studio. The big companies own multiple studios and 3-4 of them might work on the same game. IIRC Ubisoft has 7 of them just for Assassin's Creed. That's the scale I'm talking about and one can compare directly to D&D's digital offererings. They're minnows in a very large pond is the main point. That's what a AAA game is. They might have a single studio develop the DLC alone and that DLC is the same size as a few full games. AC Odyssey DLC took me 50 hours for two of them. Remember that he BG3 trailer how it looked bad? [MEDIA=youtube]s_SJZSAtLBA[/MEDIA] This a AAA title. 3 years old. Yes the game looks like this. BG3 could be a big hit, graphics not everything but right here right now that's the standard they're hitting. Coming up to 4 year old game. Same franchise. [MEDIA=youtube]cUuKIpCM2o0[/MEDIA] That's what you can do with hundreds of millions of dollars. [/QUOTE]
