D&D is bigger than it has ever been, but being a D&D fan in 2025 is deeply confusing.

The questions come on and on.

  • Why do extensive promotion of a virtual tabletop for D&D, Sigil, and then give it no marketing at rollout and kill it a month later?
  • Why has there been an exodus of staff from the company?
  • Why, after a golden age during the game's 5th edition, has Wizards struggled to find traction since the debut of 2024 D&D?

In this seminar from Gen Con 2025, I try to answer a bunch of these questions.

Listen, and enjoy!
