owner of Hasbro afaik doesn't even like D&D and has never played it
It's a publicly traded company. It's owned by shareholders. You may be thinking of the CEO.
I'm sure he is quite right that the CEO has never played D&D though. Or any other game. He was produced in a lab and spends every waking moment (which are all of them since they engineer CEOs not to need sleep) devising ways to be an even more terrible facsimile of a human.
sorry i am dogfood brain that is exactly what i meant
Yeah, Monopoly is more his kind of game..
Fun fact: Monopoly was originally called The Landlord's Game and was made by a Georgist to illustrate the inherent unfairness and ruthlessness of capitalism and especially the exploitative nature of land ownership.
Then ruthless capitalists made a couple tweaks and made vast riches selling a derived but legally destinct version celebrating the very things the original vilified before being bought out by Hasbro who now control D&D.
Ill make that version abd call it housing scalper
