And he goes, because they're going to assume you need Fantastic Adventures 1. And only so many people are going to buy that. And it's not going to be that popular. And I think he was right. So I said, ah, I will call it Fantastic Adventures Ruins of the Grendel Route, but it's completely standalone. And it was going to be standalone anyway. I was just giving it the title Fantastic Adventures 2.

But he said, it's going to confuse people. And I think it was absolutely right. And I'm really glad that it didn't go that way, which is why my own products are generally independent from all of the other products that I sell. The same way that Wizards of the Coast is making every product independent of every other product, except for the core books. They assume you have the core books.

So I thought that was really interesting. So it was a really good talk. Very interesting. Both his and I also listened to Mike Merles, who did an interview with Stan as well. That one was really interesting. I highly recommend both.

You will find links to this EN World post and to the series of videos that Stan has done and to the particular links where we're talking with where he was talking with Ray and Mike Merles. And I want to thank Ray and Mike both for talking about all of this stuff on the EN World Post as well. Some really interesting insights into things like the DMs Guild. We talked about that.

You know, some heated discussions back, not between us. At one point, there was a funny exchange where Ray brought up, hey, how far can we push the license agreement on the DMs Guild in order to be able to post some stuff on the DMs Guild? But really, the main product line is outside the DMs Guild. And I'm like... Dude, you worked for Wizards of the Coast. You tell us. Like, we don't know.

And we're always worried that the Ayasaran is going to fall on us and burn us to shred because we had an eye beast on the cover of our book. Like, why are you the one telling us how to do? You know. And he did. He gave some insight. Well, this is how they think about it, right? This is from the inside. I could tell you like this is how they're thinking about it.

And I thought that that was some really useful insight. So very, very good conversation. And I really enjoyed it. And it shows something that I'm going to talk about, which is how valuable these independent spaces are for us to be able to have interesting conversations like this.
