They are authored by volunteers (fellow gamers), edited by volunteers (fellow gamers), and approved by volunteers (fellow gamers).In Living Greyhawk there are 29 regions grouped in 5 metaregion. Each region tasked with authoring modules (up to 8 or 9) each per year (multiply that by 29), each region's modules are playable only within the region. Each metaregion is also allowed to write up to 8 or 9 modules per year (multiply that by 5), each metaregion module is playable only within the regions composing the metaregion. Plus, there are "Core" modules, up to 20 are are written per year, each Core module is played anywhere in the world. Plus each region can write 4 modules per year exclusively for 1st level characters... (multiple by 29...)That's all in one year, rinse and repeat when a new year begins.Then you have Mark of Heroes with a number of adventures per year. Go on down all of the other campaigns. Some of WotC paid staff have written adventures for this campaign actually.Now... for the kicker... all of these adventures are free. They cost nothing, zero, zilch, nada.To get all of these adventures published per year, how much are you going to pay authors, editors, developers... each per adventure... and then give them away? Far outside even Hasbro's financial capacity, IMO... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
