[QUOTE="Argyle King, post: 5296764, member: 58416"] I think it's both a good and a bad thing. In general, I think it's a good thing because it broadens the hobby to a wider audience. However, some people who don't know what rpgs are might also be lead to believe that the way D&D plays is the only thing playing a rpg has to offer, and the only way to play a rpg. I remember seeing what I think was 2nd Edition at Toys-R-Us way back when. I was a kid who had seen it in the store, and it seemed like something I would like. I saved enough money from doing chores around the neighborhood to buy a few books only to go to Toys-R-Us a few days later and be told they no longer sold the product due to complaints from parents.
