[QUOTE="MostlyHarmless42, post: 9651197, member: 6845520"] I mean, to be blunt, I'm more concerned about if the US will even continue to exist as a country by the end of the next decade, if I'll have to flee the country within the next year, or if I get carted off to some death camp in the middle of the night. Though, relevant to the topic? Nothing. I have the books. There are multiple websites out there of varying legality that have all the information out there to use that are independent of Hazbro. I do not [I]need[/I] hazbro to continue to play games with dice with my friends, and I have been vocally against DnD Beyond for multiple reasons long before it was even officially released. Hell, I outright refuse to even use any VTT outside of Maptools, and that's only because I've got one player who is out of state and a another who would otherwise have a 30min drive to join us in person. While I am certainly concerned the insane tariffs are going to cause many of the smaller RPG companies to go under or switch completely to digital out of necessity, and I feel for those whose jobs will be effected by this, it is unlikely that literally every other game company will close. Hell, I'm more concerned about systemic food scarcity and the US going into a fascist led second great depression than I am what hazbro does with their IP. It's frankly simply hard to care about a multi-billion dollar company, especially one with a proven track record of repeatedly mismanaging their brands. [/QUOTE]
