[QUOTE="Dark Mistress, post: 5977364, member: 11816"] I would rather DnD be a popular game. But I won't be happy or unhappy if I find it is not a game I want to play. I will check it out and if it is a game I enjoy I will play it and maybe buy books for it. I think the designers are people that love gaming and want to make a fun game that other people can enjoy to. No DnD did well in our niche hobby long before Hasbro ended up buying WotC and if anything PR has gotten a lot worse. I honestly have seen little to no benefit that Hasbro has brought that I don't think WotC could have done as good or better on their own. If they are having fun who cares. I will check 5E out and if I like it, I will buy books and or play it. I have a few tiers of gaming and if it falls in the first two I will buy books and if it falls in the third I will play it. Tiers 1) Preferred game of choice - currently Pathfinder: I buy tons of books for Pathfinder and would for any game that became my preferred game of choice. 2) Games I enjoy, Deadlands, Cortex, In Nomina, Spacemaster, World of Darkness books, etc. - These are games I like playing, like to run sometimes and I buy the core books and some select other books for. Mostly when I playing in them. 3) Games that I think are ok, 4E, Retro Clones, GURPS, HERO, etc. - These games are ones that I can have fun playing from time to time. 4) Games I don't like, Fudge, etc - These are just games that for what ever reason i just don't enjoy playing.
