[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 8905683, member: 6802378"] It has been a serious mistake, almost it looks intentional sabotage to cause a crisis and with this to change some chairs among the CEOs. In my land we say "César's wife should not only be honored, but also seem it". We can understand they want to make more money, but they can't forget they need the prestige of the brand and the trust by the customers. In all the business and deals nobody wants to feel being tricked paying more really necessary. We aren't little children. We love the game but they should forget the idea to be unconditional fanatics. We aren't going to tolerate and forgive everything. If they don't take care they kill the romance. And let's remember [B][U]the game rules aren't protected by the patent rights[/U][/B]. If Disney wanted, the could hire Paizo to publish a new Star Wars d20. Or Epic Games could create a rpg system to can play with a VTT within Fortnite: Creative Mode 2.0. and Hasbro couldn't do anything to avoid it. We know the megacorporations are ruled by "sharks" but Hasbro needs "good vibes" with the 3PPs, because these risk their own money to add lots of new ideas for crunch and fluff, and besided some 3PP could be acquired by Hasbro later in the future, or their IPs to be sold and added to D&D multiverse contuinity.
