Francesco Nepitello in an interview with Wargamer on why there is a #dnd5e version of #TheOneRing2e, kind of boils down to this statement:
»…we realised that D&D players and other RPG players do not really occupy the same space.«
What he’s essentially saying here, is that #DnD players and RPG players are not the same. Interesting observation.

@Morgunin Not completely surprised by this observation. Reminds me of good old DSA/Dark Eye in Germany where I perceived similar patterns years ago. It has been superseded by DnD 5e in recent years though.
