Wizards of the Coast was increasingly selling more books even as it was publishing new adventures in Avernus as much as it saw continued increase in sales by revising an older setting with Iceland Dale, and even that was a new adventure, at least. Sure, Ray Winninger said we are going to see some classic settings (Spelljammer, Spelljammer, Spelljammer  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> ), but he also said that there will be new settings, most likely Magic the Gathering inspired settings, and of course we will continue to see more storylines published as adventure paths. We have every reason to believe that there will be new material in the publication schedule. Perhaps it will, as you write, "get yawns," but I hope not.I do understand that you are predicting that we are about to see a drop in sales. The only thing that I can contribute is that I do not think that will happen soon and we can all gather here a year, or two years, or three years from now and compare notes. But, apart from your belief that you think Wizards have some how boxed themselves in through their initial design assumptions about D&D 5th edition and are about to see diminished sales, I really do not understand your reasons for this belief. The reasons appear to shift from posting to posting. And, truly, that is ok. There is no need to be a master rhetorician to post here...but I do not follow the underlying premise undergirding your belief that sales are about to diminish.Anyway, keep rolling, everyone. I am enjoying your contributions!</blockquote>
