Ryan Dancy live stream about WotCs surprising change.

Please don't volunteer Jeremy Crawford (or anyone else) for this job.

It is not our place as fans to go hunting for champions within WotC. If someone steps up, we can and should support that person; but we do not know enough about WotC's internal politics to identify a suitable champion, and we also do not have the personal relationship that would allow us to make the request.

I'm not suggesting anyone start bombarding the guy with requests. Please don't anyone do that.

I'd be really carefull with this course of action. Choosing a champion could easely transform in to harassing this "champion" until they get the job done (by your arbitrary definition of done).

Definitely was safer to be a game developer before social media existed. There is an air of entitlement now that every customer believes that they should decide what everyone in the world should do.

We know you are not, but sadly, that’s what ends up happening on the internet

Ryan Dancy said that when he took over the D&D business things were dire, the business was not well. Then the licensing folks called and said they got a check for Baldur’s Gate.

$8 million!!

The internet was a mistake.

The internet was a mistake.

They say posting their unsolicited hot take on the internet.

Mod Note:

Let us be clear - if we discover that one of our users has been personally harassing any WotC employee, they will cease being one of our users. That's banhammer territory, for sure.

Do not harass people. I don't care if you feel "this is what happens on the internet" it is not acceptable behavior.

Ryan Dancy predicts that WotC will join ORC, and probably as a silent partner at first.

At 9:43 in the video he says

I will put a marker in the ground right

now and say that Wizards of the Coast is

going to sign on to that project

I think that is one of their only Roots

out of the mess that they're in right
