[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 8010017, member: 6802378"] We know there were links between the comics and classic literature, and there is between comics and movies. Why not to say there are between videogames and TTRPGs when both are part of the industry of speculative fiction? Some franchises are famous in the no-English-speaker public thanks movies. Batman was only known by the "frikis"(geeks/fanboys) in Spain until the first Tim Burton movie. And some roleplayers like to use videogames as source of inspiration. To say a crossover Transformers-Horizon Zero: dawn is a crazy idea, but some DMs would dare. A good strategy always has to allow new doors, alternative options. I see and I wish a great future for D&D, but WotC should get ready for a future with a saturation of medieval fantasy and they will need other genres as space opera, gothic horror or wuxia. WotC has to work in the design of a ultimate d20 to be used for all the different genres, even superheroes, and enough confortable to be used by the 3PPs. * Today WotC doesn't worry about to publish new classes. Why when these can be created by 3PPs? If someone becomes very popular I guess then WotC will add it to the official crunch. * Harry Potter saga could be ended without the movies, but these helped to sell more books. We can see how the releasing of the comingsoon movie of Artemis Fowl the books be sold more than before. (Isn't it curious. The videogames of Harry Potter shows the evolution of the hardware among the different generations of consoles. * The lore of D&D should be ready if Hasbro has future plans about partnership and intercompany crossovers. After a D&D-Stranger Things and a D&D - Rick & Morty, why not other franchises? maybe some videogame. [/QUOTE]
