[QUOTE="OblivionDrive, post: 7897143, member: 7020101"] Just gonna toss my two cents into this since I've been lurking these forums for years and only just now registered to chime in. Been playing since the end of 1e. I'm in my 40s and a literal greybeard (it started going grey about five years ago and now it's about 50% of the way there) and I am SUPER jazzed for the Wildemount book and CR-related content. I've followed campaign 2 since it launched and have watched about 3/4 of the Vox Machina campaign - I fell off before C2 started and never quite got back around to finishing up with it, though I did watch the last 2.5 episodes live despite not being caught up. I had to see how it all ended. Sooooo yeah... it's not just "those dang kids with their TikTok and their Snapchat" who dig Critical Role and are the market for this book. I preordered both the D&D Beyond version and the dead tree copy within hours of them both being announced. And at the same time, I also cross my fingers each time a new book is coming, hoping that it will be Dark Sun, Planescape, Spelljammer or one of my other 2e favorites brought back around and given new life. But I'm not gonna curse the gods because the new stuff is getting a moment to shine either. And as much as some folks on here don't wanna admit, others have said this upthread and it's 100% on point - forums are a very self-selecting and "old school" format. Nowadays it's all Reddit, Twitter and Discord servers where the new blood are finding people and discussing things related to the hobby. Everyone who "doesn't get" Twitch streaming, social media and such related things all seem so perplexed that something this big could have slipped in without them noticing, but hey, everyone fails a perception check now and then, right? ;) [/QUOTE]
