[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 7658268, member: 12731"] I know you're trying to help, but most people reading this are ordinary DMs with no interest whatsoever to do anything more just to buy, download, print and play an adventure with their friends in the comfort of their own home. In that context, the above hoops are utterly preposterous. (And I'm saying that in a calm neutral tone. I realize you're just the messenger. I am not angry at you. In fact I'm not angry at all) I can guess part of the reason WotC doesn't bother selling their adventures is production values. (These adventures are pure text with no paid art or any art whatsoever, except for the occasional handdrawn map or sketch) But still. Any time a company doesn't seem to realize their stuff is a only one simple google search away, and yet refuses to take our money, well... I've read your blog Merric, and I wish you the best of luck with your affiliate program. But it's possible to read your post as if you truly believe the above steps are the only way. Or, for that matter, in any way reasonable. And that makes for... awkward reading. Thanks. Now then, let me hope WotC will reconsider in the future. After all, actually coming up with good (or even half-decent) adventure ideas is the hard part. Designing an attractive product we know WotC can do. So here's hoping WotC will compile the most well-regarded of their DDE-whatever adventures into market-grade book of adventures and actually sell it. And while they're at it, update sleeper-classics such as Scourge of Sword Coast, Murder in Baldur's Gate and Legacy in Icewind Dale to final 5e stats too (with sturdier covers!). :) [/QUOTE]
