We always knew, but now it's just out there.It will take a lot of the steam out of DH's momentum to see that it's own publisher mainly focuses elsewhere, even as they've not abandoned it.As for CR, I won't watch it. Not in "retaliation", but because watching actual plays of D&D and Pathfinder and games like them bores me. Listening to them as podcasts has almost caused me to wreck my car from falling asleep when I wasn't even tired...That very same cast playing DH is what sold me on the game. They just seemed much more engaged and alive when playing DH. And I've gone on to watch and listen to actual plays and podcasts of DH and 'Mist Engine' games (Otherscape and Legend in the Mist) and those keep me engaged. Casts get more in tune with story with narrative games. With the boardgame-RPGs like D&D and Pathfinder they spend a lot of time fiddling with mechanics and examining tactical grids.I might watch their DH stuff when they do it. Some of their new DH one shots with guest casts showing off unique campaign frames have been very good.But I'm not a fan of the main cast. Not an anti-fan either. They never grew on me because I'm not a D&D person. They were starting to when I saw them play DH, but I'd consider them my third favorite DH show - behind Dodoborne and Role of the Dice.I wish they'd put DH as front and used D&D for the off-night events because I want the hype for DH to turn into a long term sustained thing. I get the financial reasons why otherwise happened. But that's not what I care about, I care about what I enjoy.So it is what it is, and I move on. If DH survives past it's hyper stage I'll be happy. But I'll always wish it could have been bigger than where it eventually lands after all of this - and even if I'm wrong in the long run, I will "feel" like this news stunted it.</blockquote>
