Corporate isn't going to take away the lessons we might hope. Folks at corporate at going to ask things like, "how much money was left on the table?" They can only fuck things up through paying attention.

The takeaways that will make it to the steering group PowerPoint:

  • VideoGames based on our IP sell better than expected.
  • Sales of our other digital products follow suit
  • Larian Studios did this with minimal oversight
  • No reason to assume any and all VideoGame products based on other IPs would not follow similar pattern
  • Call to action: Fund additional Hasbro IP based VideoGames.

You know corporate will assume the opposite on all points though

Gve me a slay the spire style mtg and I'd be all over it.

Don't give me hope. I still play Shandalar from time to time.
