[QUOTE="BryonD, post: 6559419, member: 957"] Certainly Why are you sorry? It is a great time to be a gamer and I have a ton of options. My game will be great five years from now, just like it was great in the midst of the 4e reign. I'm simply pointing out likely results of potential plans. Yes, I like 5E and I would absolutely prefer to see them off more of it to me. But if they can make more money showing me the door, I vote for showing me the door. I'm all for them doing what is best for them. We are all making a lot of assumptions about what their goals are and about how what we have seen fits their plan into the future. We could be wrong about both. but for the assumptions being thrown around, my answers are my answers. You could compare this to when people told me that WotC didn't need me as a customer for 4E. Some people tried to tell me I needed to realize it wasn't about me. But I was playing an awesome game then. My lack of being concerned over the integrity of my home game didn't stop my predictions from playing out. And my enjoyment of online armchair quarterbacking the market planning doesn't mean I'm on pins and needles over what happens. Again, I agree. I think there is also risk to NOT doing things. D&D has a brand value today. That brand value is not immortal. If they do things, they take risk and could lose money (or simply make less money). If they don't do things they take risk and could lose money (or simply make less money). What is a good and thoughtful plan based on realistic expectations of markets? [/QUOTE]
