This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: jan paparazzi;823350Yup. But that's the thing. It still sells very well. The folks who follow it closely buy all the wod games and only those rpg's. While people outside of the wod community usually hate on the owod metaplot and generally don't care for the nwod and never played it. So only the hardcore fans buy all of the gamelines and there is very few overlap with other games. At least D&D players also play Shadowrun, Numenera or Mutants and Masterminds. I think it's always good to play a number of different games from different companies.

I've been playing WoD games since 1992, and I've never stopped playing other things. I run Mage and play D&D 4th Ed at the moment.

I'm not denying your experience, but I've never seen it. Even back in the height of the cWoD's metaplot madness, my group were playing Decipher Star Trek, Nobilis, Fading Suns, and Blue Planet.

I think a lot of the mainstream RPG audience left and they only have the hardcore fans left over. At least that's my experience on the ww fora.
May I say that? Yes, I may say that!

Forums are the worst place to get a view of the overall group playing a game.
