Message: <blockquote data-quote="Desdichado" data-source="post: 9352883" data-attributes="member: 2205">Scan, snip. So I'm imprecise sometimes in my action verbs. Where are you going with this? Are you suggesting that those AREN'T the covers of the of the AD&D PHB or that the blurb that it's an adult RPG wasn't on the cover of the Holmes book? Because unless you are, what's your point?Also, I said I have the Book of Vile Darkness and the Dungeon/Dragon issues as physical copies, I said I bought the AD&D and BD&D pdfs on DrivethruRPG years ago.In fact, in general, it'd be nice if you'd take a step back and actually be clear what your point is. If you're arguing whether or not I scanned or snipped the covers of the PHB, then I don't care to bother with such a ridiculous discussion. If you're saying that anyone over 24 has "aged out" of being targeted by WotC, which I'm not clear about because someone else actually made that point, it'd be nice to tell us why you think such an extraordinary thing. If you think D&D is a kids game, and not one targeted at adults, I'm not quite sure that I'm interested in continuing to attempt to prove that to you when I've already done so, because you've ignored what I've posted, but at least I'd understand what your point is.If you actually want to talk about the topic of the thread, like you say, then it'd be nice if you added something to the idea of why use an old Gen X or older setting in a book that you are convinced is only marketed to teenagers.And for those who keep referring to "<a href="https://www.enworld.org/attachments/1000014114-png.364410/" target="_blank">WotC's own data</a>", maybe you can explain to me why Generation Z is mislabeled to look bigger than it is, why Millennials are actually bigger than Generation Z even with the mislabeling and yet apparently WotC are only targeting Gen Z because they're the "biggest cohort" and why anyone over 45 is just not even shown as if they don't exist... all points that make the data extremely suspect. Not that I believe this is true, but there could be more Gen Xers than all of the rest of the individuals shown combined, and we'd never know it, because they just cut the chart off arbitrarily to not show how many there are.</blockquote>
