[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 9413650, member: 6801228"] Most of which have been the brand name, which in the current climate is as much of a detriment to them as a boon. You mean keeping the context of the discussion instead of slicing out only a thin line of text which can be easily misconstrued? Yeah it will happen so slowly and so gradually that no one will be able to see it happening at all, even over multiple decades of gameplay. ROFLMAO! Evangelists? Yeah, hardly. I stopped watching Nerd Immersion because he was coming across as more bitterly blind about the OGL fiasco than I was comfortable with, still raking them over the coals months after the whole issue was dead and buried. I was actually shocked that they sent him a preview copy. No, this isn't an issue of control. This is them understanding how the community works. Free previews of their material will get them more sales than cutting off the community. You think they are not going to allow their character sheets from their subscription service and digital sales platform to cross-pollinate with their OTHER subscription service? If you don't think DDB character sheets are going to be the importable, in full, to the VTT, then you are once more showing you do not understand this industry or the products. It is funny to me that the guy who keep quoting "recurrent spending environment" and "under-monetized" takes issue with me putting any emphasis on what WoTC has said. Also, yeah, if flashing lights and pretty colors were enough to get my money? I'd have a youtube premium membership. And instead of text books, I'd only watch Television and Movies. [/QUOTE]
