[QUOTE="Sir Edgar, post: 367087, member: 7230"] [b]Re: Re: Is WOTC/Hasbro mismanaging D&D?[/b] I think you misunderstood me. What I was trying to say is that even if they just took the basic CONTENT of previous editions and put them in 3e rules, they would have still had a better product than what they're putting out right now. What would be ideal would have been to compile and synthesize previous work with current ideas and rules for an up-to-date and more useful product. That's not what's happening and it's apparent that I am not the only one who thinks so. For example, there was quite a bit of good information about building strongholds and collecting taxes in 1e PHB and DM as well as many 2e materials and some random articles and whatnot from Dragon Magazine. Wouldn't it have been great if some of this was actually included in the Stronghold Builder's Guidebook? No offense to the writer, because it's not an awful product but it left a lot of room for improvement. This should have been the "bible" on how player characters can build their own strongholds and manage and pay for them. I never said because I find something useless "the majority of gamers must as well". I only wanted to express my opinion and see if there are other people who agree. Please do not re-interprete my statements. Nobody expects a "perfect" product all of the time. Just a logical one that is useful and complete. But yes, a product is a reflection of the company.
