[QUOTE="JeffB, post: 261909, member: 518"] Eric, Good points... So then does D&D become a game for just the players? If they only produce products that DM's may or may not want or need, then where will that leave the game in the future?... There are already less DM's to players...by ignoring the needs of the DM..WOTC sets up the game for failure..less DMs...less people to introduce the game to newbies..less people play... SO the former players become DM's..then they realize they have no support either....same situation... This has been the problem since the mid-80's...narrow minded focus on selling books for players.....then they wonder why people drop out of the game after a few years or move on to another game.... Not bad now..but very bad in the long run....and WOTC sets itself up for the same failure as TSR...as long as absolute bottom lines at the expense of all else, rule the game, it will always crash and burn every several years... WOTC needs to relearn their thinking process..by focusing on being the BEST..the biggest title will come in time... [/QUOTE]
