so I would hope that they would want to switch just to get away from Hasbro.

I'll say this as a relatively newer player, I don't care about the company that made the game when I'm trying to find something to play. As a player in 2 campaigns and a baby-DM for another, I think the only money I've paid that hasbro would get anything from is a Nolzurs mini I bought before I started making my own.

I'm not saying that people shouldn't look outside of DND for other RPGs, there's a ton of other great platforms out there, just trying to offer some perspective. I don't think the average DnD player really gives a crap about Hasbro (again, not saying they shouldn't care, just that they don't), let alone have a desire to change platforms based on the manufacturer.

Players playing 3.5e are not average players. They've invested a lot of time into the game already. They should care what the company does, especially considering what they did after 3.5 that they should remember.

You probably will care who makes the system soon though because Hasbro is going to require subscriptions for everything. It's going to sucks. You can always pirate the PDFs, but just play a better system. D&D 5e is so janky and you have to remember so many exceptions. Pathfinder 2e just works how you'd expect.
