[QUOTE="CptMcquacken, post: 7882118, member: 7019287"] Well, I think a very very good explanation for these statistics is a simple one. Since DnDBeyond has revolutionized the way we D&D, we just haven’t made it that far in our campaigns. I’m sure there are groups that may play twice a week for 4-6 hours a session. But, my group tries to play once a week and our average session is about 2 hours depending on who “has to work” the next day etc. We have been playing for almost a year and we’re level 7. Playing storm King’s thunder mind you, where there are a billion options and directions we can take it. There’s so much content in Storm Kings thunder our DM has talked about morphing it into a full blown level 20 campaign. The short reason for these statistics is that “In terms of the nature of D&D character development DnDB is just too young to see those kinds of numbers and they will always be low on the level spectrum if they are being successful as a business” because once the O.G. players are nearing level 20 and those stats go from hundreds of high level players to thousands, the number of new dnd players should go from tens of thousands to millions. Right now though, it’s the wrong time to look at these kinds of statistics given the slow moving progression and nature of the game. [/QUOTE]
