      Which is insane considering all they do is sell plastic and paper in interesting shapes. All we want are fun and interesting amusment and they cant even do that despite all of the artists just dumping cool shit in thier lap constantly.
      The marketing people got up thier own ass under protection from HR and the executive leadership ultimatley does not care because its easier to take your money and go be rich instead of fight dificult and controversial battles

    I feel as though both Hasbro and Wizards are to blame for the decline of both IP's. Wizard's for pumping political nonsense into their games and Hasbro for prioritizing quantity over quality. Making shitty products and trash talking your consumer base is a prime way to ruin a business.

    I am happy to see WOTC fail. They have produced nothing but garbage for D&D for years now. Larian showed them how to elevate D&D to the next level but WOTC are too worried about woke politics to get the hint. The next line up of D&D video games already looks like boring trash. I am so glad Larian left them. BG3 was amazing but not for anything WOTC did. They only restricted Larian and probably charged an astronomical amount for the licensing.

    I know they oversaturated me. I got back into MtG around 2014 I think, whenever Khans came out, and then in 2022 when they were pumping out so much product and they made Alchemy, I just said I was sick of keeping up and sick of the value proposition of the game being so low. It's a great game. I'd have even paid $10 a month to play Standard with access to all the cards in Standard. I had no interest digitally collecting. And while I still follow what's going on somewhat, they lost a captured audience. But I imagine they could have lost 10 consumers like me in the market and easily found 1 consumer they made 20 times what I would spend on their products at the prices I was willing. From a business perspective it probably still makes sense.

    These upper positions are short term jobs. Spend a few years here and there and each time you make more and more money. Get in. Get a few positive moves in place and get out before anything goes wrong. Right the ship and move on. Or tank a company and move on. Often to another company that made out well from the others misfortune. Most CEOs don't care what the company does or sells. They are trained to be CEOs. They solve an issue and move on.

    Yeah, it used to my favorite TCG but I became quickly disillusioned with all the cash grabs. They release a new product on an almost bi-weekly basis now. It’s insane. Then they separated the packs into different tiers and paywalled all the cooler variants into the most expensive products. I left it for Flesh and Blood which is a much better TCG to play and collect IMO.
