WOTC’s market research through DDB and sales figures are. Less than 10% of people are going to go to a con or play in a store. I don’t play in a store and I only started going to gaming cons after the pandemic and I have been playing for 34 years. Your argument about physical book sales are really confusing too because what drove 3.x era books sales and Pathfinder book sales? Both were largely driven by younger players as well that are now in their 30s and early 40s and we were paying out far more per month for books and stuff then than we are now? So I’m confused why this is hard to grasp. Back then it was 2 or three 30-50 dollar books a month and quarterly mini releases, plus extras, the D20 boom of which some were extremely popular as well. I had two players in high school who bought every book as it came out, especially the more expensive Forgotten Realms books when we got one every other month. WOtC has put out their survey and data results pointing to an age range and you’re just disagreeing with it because you don’t see it in your local store and conventions? Maybe because they’re, like us as teens, looking forward to when they can go to Gencon/Origins/Pax etc and choosing to buy their… 2 or 3 sourcebooks a year and their DM buying their adventure.</p></blockquote><p></p>
