Interesting article Erik. Thanks for posting! I'm excited for the genre to expand. It's been a life-long favorite, so it's encouraging that we may get -good- movies out of the genre in the next few years.

I also think that while WoW is losing users (1.5m user drop in 2012), those folk are seeking out other fantasy products to scratch that itch. I've ran into a lot of former WoW players in the last 2 years that are relentlessly pursuing gaming, writing and other properties in the Fantasy genre.

i wish the world government would drop a chemical from the stratosphere that would sterilize a generation of the population. this would ease so much strife and pollution. eventually we could get back to makin' bacon but why not take a break for awhile?
