It was recently announced that Cynthia Williams be stepping down as the President of Wizards of the Coast. We look at what this means for the future of D&D.
I’m guessing she got the job because Hasbro approved of those plans for profitability, though. It all seemed standard corporate affair. Hopefully they learned from their mistake, but I think this means they’ll just find a CEO to squeeze money out of pumping bad video games or some shit. Companies always learn the wrong lessons from their success.
In fact, they already learned the OGL lesson before, so it’s dumb they had to learn it again. They’ll probably have to repeat another one of these lessons in 10 years or so. Hopefully until then, the company is slightly better, but we’ll see who steps up.
2-3 years of pumping shit video games is 2-3 years that they aren’t fucking with the core product, which is the only part I don’t want ruined. The can make bad games, bad merch, bad brand tie-ins or anything else for all I care as long as they don’t harm the game.
