I posted here, too, because back at the time of the 3 to 4E changeover there was a ton of discussion about the impact on the game and the game environment by this. Those of you who remember know what I am talking about. Multiple, multiple threads. So I figured it would be of interest for possible discussion.
Also, if I am going to come in and say "you were right I was wrong" I didnt want to do it in the publisher thread--a much smaller thread--and risk looking like I'm dodging the full pelting I may take.
So I posted here in the big boy forum. Clark

Well, I told you so as well, but I don't think it really matters since I don't think I'm representative of a particularly large market
I pretty much thought they'd been going down the wrong road since 3.5. Fantasycraft, while not perfectly what I'm interested in, seems to be more in the direction I wanted for the game than anything WotC ever wanted to do.
I admit I was never a big fan of your products to begin with, if only for the simple reason that I find Orcus to be a vastly over used and extremely trite and uninteresting villain. I can't begin to count the number of modules he's been in but the number is now very large, and I never saw the attraction to begin with as he has to be the most dull and unimaginative fiend lord of the entire bunch. Please diversify your upcoming adventure products if you hope to attract my interest.
However, I do have some of your 3rd edition Ravenloft products which I found to be quite good. And of course, I picked up a copy of 'Lost City of Barakus', which is one of the better 'super modules' of the era.

As previously posted, Bill is working on a POD with Drivethru, who is still months away from being able to offer it.

Alright, that works for me.
And I took a break from ENWorld around that time because things were, uh... a little hot back then.

I would be interested to here what those lots of reasons were. Though 3PP rules material is proving difficult under the GSL, adventures are prime candidates.

Did Necromancer do Ravenloft products during 3e? I only recall White Wolf/Sword & Sorcery doing them.
Unless I'm just trippin' and didn't notice Clark's name on any of the SSS Ravenloft stuff I have.
