[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 7667689"] I don't have any problem with this attitude is so long as it doesn't cause them to lose focus. I feel like we're being told that they are both interested in staying focused (by staying in a single setting with a connected narrative moving through it) but at the same time not focused on the genre. Video games are great, but as Paizo and GoblinWorks is finding out, [I]incredibly[/I] expensive and people's standards now are incredibly high. 5E needs to be a standing success for a while before they can reasonably start investing in video games. I would like to see some more tertiary support for the game though, T-shirts, mugs, gaming dice, even if not directly from Wizards, but licensed through someone. Wouldn't mind some animated entertainment either, the market is certainly going to be more friendly towards swords and sorcerery cartoons while shows like Game of Thrones are popular. I would be concerned that it might be too "childish" though and equally that it would be too dark and not get aired at good times. Still, I agree that there is more to D&D than what you're doing at the table and any good product knows this too. What really needs to happen is Wizards needs to get that 3PP license out. Oh, it's nice to see they're not completely ignorant to the state of their digital...state. [/QUOTE]
