[QUOTE="Blackwarder, post: 9032044, member: 6688285"] That is a valid point that imo falls under bad methodology. But you are right, I haven’t seen anything to corroborate this and it might just be bad journalism. As for how much wealth matters, I personally spend 20-30$ a month on incidental RPGs products and I’m between games. I‘ve recently bought 5 starter sets as a gift for friends and family, I am literally the engine that grow the hobby. What I think happened is that marvel phase 4 put people on edge and that comment simply drove folks to think that it is going to be the same crapy political agenda over good story telling. I can name dozens, maybe 50-60 people, who watched the movie simply because I bought it on iTunes and gave them my username. Those are people that would have eagerly watched it in cinema a year ago. And 40% of that group are women. So laugh all you want, it’s a real issue. It’s not uniformal. See my response to Vaalingrade above. Some people heard about that and some didn’t. Some want nothing to do with WotC for various reasons some want nothing to do with 5e or the upcoming 6e, some even refuse to do business with them or use the IP no matter how lucrative the proposed deal is. And before anyone ask, yes I have inside informatiom, no I won’t comment on it any further except to say that there are a bunch of people trying to fix this. [/QUOTE]
