[QUOTE="MrMyth, post: 5403460, member: 61155"] Except.... Lancelot's post gave a number of reasons on how things WotC did in 2010 worked just fine. I think that's been a lot of the argument here - not just that WotC is 'too big to fall', but that 2010 was not nearly the disaster some are claiming, and featured some big winners - MM3, Dark Sun, Gamma World. Do you really need to dismiss his entire post as "the WotC apologia", rather than respond to the numerous decent points he actually makes? Honestly, even when comparing them to past years, I don't think WotC is in any danger. With DDI... yeah, they bungled the CB launch. But the VTT Beta is a pretty big step forward at the same time, and while I'd certainly rate their digital performance as higher in 2009... what about the year before, when they completely flubbed the launch of DDI itself? That didn't sink the company. A smaller mistep, later in the process, seems unlikely to do the same. [/QUOTE]
