Baldur's Gate 3 is a "mega hit" that Hasbro expects to pay dividends for years

Y'all ready for a decade of moderately to incredibly broken, brain dead, pushed out the door for a quick buck D&D games?

At the top, there will be DnD, the trading card game

They've already released Magic: The Gathering sets based on D&D.

People seem to forget their gaming history. William SRD has an entire channel dedicated to incredibly broken, brain dead, pushed out the door for a quick buck D&D games.

I watch every episode of W.SRD, that's the only enjoyment I forsee for the future of Hasbro D&D video games

FUCK YEAH! START THE LAWNMOWER!!!

For the uninformed, start the lawnmower is a fist pump that mimics the action of pulling the starter cord on a lawn mower

It's going to be like that time that GTA3 was a huge success, and a million shitty and broken "open world" games came out (Excluding Simpsons Hit and Run that game was great)

Or when WOW was a huge success and we were buried with a million shitty and broken MMO WOW clones.

Tale as old as tiiimeee.
