so basically Wizards is the only thing that makes money for Hasbro anymore since nobody is playing Monopoly or doing puzzles. So Hasbro is basically making WOTC a full on division of the company sort of like what Activision did with Blizzard (and if you are a g*mer you probably know how that ended).
here comes more digital releases, tighter release schedules, and the end of customer-friendly copyright permissions. we're about to get all the shitty parts of TSR without even a Spelljammer book. This probably has something to do with why the owners of D&D Beyond all jumped ship a few weeks ago.
