D&D 5E How Important is Stranger Things to the Success of 5e

[Umbran]

Let's not start on Doctor Who's incredibly hypocritical and inconsistent morality, where every individual is super-significant if they're say, a human, but y'know, stuff 'em if they're a Gallifreyan or indeed most non-humans!

Interesting way to NOT START, dude.

Lacking the ability to check sales data over time with respect to the show's releases, I can at best guess it had a minor, but positive, impact.

I will concede to everyone that I might take the positive part of the impact and mistake that for significant. You've probably called it, really. Minor but Positive.

 

[Charlaquin]

Yeah, but we're talking about people and I have a very Doctor Who view of the significance of each individual person.

Again, it depends on what we’re talking about. In the grand scheme of the universe? Yes, I absolutely agree, every individual is significant. In how much a franchise has contributed to another franchise’s popularity? No, one person is not a significant portion (unless the franchise has fewer than like 1,000 fans).

The comic sells terribly for me, but it sells decently when crossed over with D&D.

Mayne D&D has boosted Stranger Things.

Mayne D&D has boosted Stranger Things.

I have a few friends that weren't going to watch it till I mentioned the D&D part of it. 1 tried, but didn't like the show and the other 2 did. So maybe.

@Charlaquin I ain't no arithomancer, but that is suggestive.

So, no?

@Charlaquin I ain't no arithomancer, but that is suggestive.

That seems to me to suggest a minor but positive effect, which is what I voted for.
