Hasbro/WOTC "fireside chat": D&D being "under monetized," "live service tools," "recurrent spending"
Much of the drama around this presentation has been their report on Magic: The Gathering (there are many videos online about that). Here I excerpt the parts where they specifically talk about D&D.
My video where I react to an article reporting on this, is at:

The full Hasbro presentation (most of it covers Magic: The Gathering) has been posted online at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJpDA9CsdJQ
(It is also on Hasbro's website - google "Hasbro presentations" and it's the one from Dec. 8 - but it requires a (free) registration.)
