However, I think WotC's thinking was that the open playtest would be the thing that people "moved on to". Because it was new and exciting (and, with ongoing changes, would remain new and exciting), plus with it offering the ability to influence the generation for years to come, there would be enough interest to sustain people in playing.Which is a reasonable approach. Whether it has worked or not... that's another question.(Certainly, my Meetup group haven't played any 5e. We initially started with good intentions, but we were so wrapped up in our ongoing campaigns that we never found time. And now the interest levels of the people most likely to DM it have largely cratered. But I don't think any of that is WotC's fault - just the way it has panned out for us.)</blockquote>
