Dungeons & Dragons' owners think the brand is "really under monetised" and have a plan to fix that in the future.

D&D’s corporate overlords have “ideas” about milking more money from the franchise.

    I would like more computer games, especially ones that aren’t in early access for 3+ years, but when burgies and their lackeys talk in that tone, they usually mean things even more scummy than the constant MTG gallop.

    For all the good parts of 4E, one problem was that it was certainly over-monetized, with hardbacks being released every month and a very expensive online character builder. With 5e, the plea to the higher-ups reportedly was that “just let us make a version ‘for the fans’, a labor of love, and you make money off of t-shirts and pinball games and such if D&D becomes a valuable brand again”… and it became the best-selling edition.

    Now I don’t know what the heck they are doing. The fact that they own D&D beyond is not a good sign.
