[QUOTE="Distracted DM, post: 9575429, member: 6894926"] I really like the names, can't pin down exactly why, other than that I like there being a "everyday folk call them devils, their proper name for themselves and from sages etc. is baatezu." At this point I don't care either way, but WotC has been the lion's share of Hasbro's worth for some time now, over 70%- it's not just players that have suggested WotC splitting off from Hasbro, it's been significant shareholders. That's just fact. Also, layoffs and restructurings have been happening under Hasbro's ownership anyway. Moving from fact to speculation: one of the things that panicked Hasbro in the first place and made them start taking a bigger active role in WotC's management in the late 2010's: someone with a couple percent ownership in the company was vocal about splitting WotC off from Hasbro in the stock exchange, which would've tanked Hasbro's worth. Hasbro is the one that needs WotC, not the other way around. [/QUOTE]
