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.

What would you do as WotC Creative director?

I would make more GM-non adventure books. I know that the money comes generally from things that players buy, since there are more players than GMs, but we know that WotC is doing well financially, so i would bring back either splat books like they had, or more settings. ALSO listen to the consumer, i hate that they got rid of things because they were "troublesome" its part of the lore, you cant ingnore things that are inherantly "bad" it waters down the setting a lot. I just fee like they are making chnages that no one asked form.

Now that you mention it, I'm playing in Forgotten Realms currently and if you want city maps you gotta buy up Rime of the Frostmaiden or Storm Lord's Thunder and even then you don't get them all. A cities of the Savage Coast would be nice (especially in a VTT) to help promote DM-created adventures.

So I would consider producing regional products that provide good maps of an area with the major settlements with interior maps of select important buildings. At a scale that is usuable when shoved into a VTT which is the future and far more visual than theater of the mind. A bit like the Harn folks did later when they merged cities of Harn into the different Kingdom's of Harn. Buy a Kingdom and you've got everything you need for adventuring there.
