The last time WotC did something greedy and pissed off their players, I saw groups go one of two ways.

The first group I was in was heavily invested in D&D Beyond and they came to every session up-in-arms about what WotC was doing. They couldn't believe it! But they also couldn't give up D&D or be bothered to learn a new game. The group ended up dissolving for unrelated reasons, but the last time I checked the guy who was the most mad is still paying his DND beyond subscription.

The other group I was in at the time was not at all invested in D&D Beyond. One of them texts the group asking if we wanted to play Lancer or Wanderhome next. I asked if switching games was because of the recent scandal and she told me she hadn't even heard of it.

ELI5 What happens then?

Tldr some people quit and play other games. Most people get mad but stay. Musk probably tanks the company anyways doing what he does best
