Mearls says adventures are hard to sell
(snipped from the Will Wright thread)
If this is the case, something does not compute. WotC is not a charity, it's a business. I find it hard to believe they'd produce something that doesn't sell. This has nothing to do with my personal dislike of pretty much every single published adventure I've ever seen, but if they are hard to sell:
(1) Why is the WotC product schedule for 2007 filled with adventures?
(2) Why are a lot of those adventures event-driven, instead of locale-driven?
(3) Why are pretty much all FR books for 2007 adventures, instead of regional supplements, which people actually asked for, over and over again?
I'd appreciate it if somebody could clarify the above issues for me.
