I didn't realise Hasbro were the publisher, now I feel a little dirty. Those bastards ruined Super Soaker.

They didn't publish it, but they licensed the DnD brand to Larian

Wait, Hasbro owns DnD? It feels weird to me that a company can own DnD rights.

That is a great attitude towards everything DnD stands for, don't lose it. Theres been a great deal of controversy this year, because the executives at wotc/hasbro believe that owning a popular brand like DnD means they're entitled to shitloads of money, so they're attempting to turn it into a cash cow, completely alienating the long standing community
