D&D is a niche hobby, therefore, only certain amount of people are going to play it. Their expectations are set way too high to be honest. Most of us gamers do spend loads of money on RPG stuff but apparently it's just not enough profits for them. They think by going this route they are going to bring in this untapped hoard of gamers out there that are just waiting to get into D&D. Well it's not going to happen on the level they are dreaming. When you set your expectations too high on a product that has a very limited audience then your profits are not going to be steller. Paizo has the right idea and they are running a game company like it should. I would bet you that they clear their overhead and pay their staff really well. I would say they are happy from any profits they get and are satisfied with it. WoTc/Hasbro are not satisfied and never will be. That is the curse of capitialism and big business. So basically in essence, releasing very few products will come back to bite them in the arse.</blockquote>
