He was fantastic. He truly wanted to hear from the community, learn what we were thinking, and try to find a path to bring people together.His bosses did not.Instead, they put on presentations about the 3d VTT. They put on presentations about D&D Beyond. They talked about the core books.At one point an audience member asked a question – I don't remember what it was – but Dan Rawson, the VP of whatever (who has now moved to a new position of whatever + digital whatever) tried to answer and it was super clear he had no idea what the person was asking.Dixon put his hand up at the guy and took Dan's microphone from him and directly answered the question. It was such a clear sign of the giant gap existing between the people at WOTC who knew their audience and the executive team who knew, as far as I can tell, jack.I know things shifted around in WOTC's management chain now. Kyle, the guy who went out in front of the hail of arrows during the OGL crisis, was laid off too a few months back.This doesn't look like a great sign to me. We'll see.I have my books. I have the 5.1 SRD. I have A5e's SRD. And WOTC says repeatedly they're going to release the 5.2 SRD. Beyond that, I don't need them to enjoy this game.</blockquote>
