I wish we could manage to save things like this for reddit; this guy wasn't even tangentially involved in SEOing anyones websites and he hardly had any thoughts on improving click-through.
- SwellJoe 19y agoYou're joking, of course...but I can't help but point out that the Dungeons and Dragons empire has been very successful, and has influenced many of the biggest software makers in the world over the years (and I shouldn't need to point out that the most profitable video game in history is a direct descendant of D&D).
- anewaccountname 19y agoWorld of Warcraft is a direct descendant of D&D? Someone's going to want some royalties.
- SwellJoe 19y agoPerhaps we have a different definitions of "direct descendant" in this context. I don't see how the similarities, and thus the philosophical lineage, could be any more clear or direct than it is, without actually being made by the folks who made Dungeons and Dragons. I don't really care to argue semantics. The influence is obvious and inarguable, whether you wish to call it descent or something else.
