[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7892676, member: 6670153"] I think the fact that Exandia book is number #1 means that WotC doesn't care if those buying it actually play or use it as a paper weight, they are too busy counting their cash 😂. I wish more old school D&D fans realized that this actually means their favourite settings will get published, not less. Between the success of Eberron, Ravnica, and the super success of Exandia, WotC has wetted their beak and gotten a taste, and they will find it addictive and they are largely out of interested outsider tie ins, which means they will have to turn to more traditional settings like they did with Eberron, if they want more. And Matt Mercier's team did most of the work, even have the art for the book, which freed up alot of WotC's own team for more books. And they've used up all the room the market has for starter sets last year, which also frees up slots. We still have what 4 or 5 other books to look forward to? One or two of these will likely be settings as well. [/QUOTE]
