[QUOTE="Greg K, post: 8127601, member: 5038"] Based on my past experiences with WOTC surveys, I, normally, don't do their surveys. However, I did this one. In addition to listing ENWorld as one of the sites I visit, I noted that I have not bought any WOTC 5e products despite owning the online basic rules, having looked over the books, and having spent money on third party 5e products in the past 6 months (actually, within the last two weeks). I also responded with a 2 for how likely I would be to recommend D&D to others. In the response box for why I am unlikely to recommend D&D, I explained that I, originally, recommended 5e to others when I first saw the basic rules as I saw promise and continued to do so despite finding the PHB classes and subclasses to be a "mixed bag" in both quality and the fantasy that I enjoy, However, since then I have found little useful content in 5e supplements and dislike the direction of 5e fantasy (and have disliked the direction of WOTC fantasy since mid-3e) despite liking the base 5e mechanics. I then noted the few specific items in Xanathar's that I like (e.g. the Scout subclass) and the few items of interest to me in Tasha's based upon the ToC and other previews (primarily, the fighter builds)- ultimately, neither has enough content of interest for me to purchase. Finally, I provided examples of what I, personally, have been looking for in WOTC supplements. The one thing I forgot to include was my desire for a few more official classes including a shaman (one not inspired by WoW and not the, imo, lame Druid subclass), a witch, and a warlord. I am sure that what I wrote won't change anything, but I noted what it would take for me to buy WOTC products and start recommending 5e again. [/QUOTE]
