Kind of funny actually. Gold in 5e is primarily used for the things that are usually glossed over in other games/editions. More book keeping like upkeep, running businesses, paying rent for homes, training etc etc. Most of what others have said. It seems to run counter intuitive to the...

Jargogle If what you say about pushing his product out as an official license then I am inclined to believer. Still to the poitn though, wizards needs to get off their asses and put out a comunity use contract or something. Im sure this could have avoided if we know who exactly what is and...

If he didn't use the OGL then he can't violate the OGL and can say his game is compatible with D&D. Atleast thats what everyone was yelling to me over on the RPG General board when I asked about the OGL and being bound to it. That art stuff is a definite violation and all of that, but from what...

Gonna say... hmmm... not pathfinder 2.0 but perhaps a revision to the core 3 books? better layout etc.

Then why don't they stop the Magic video games? Those are surely taking money away from the stores right? All those people could be funneling money into the actual physical game. Clearly digital games either A) are taking money from the stores which means those digital offerings need to be taken...

I don't buy the "No PDFs for stores because MTG is played there". Wizards always wanted to keep the games separate. That's a big reason why there is no Multiverse Magic setting. Magic has digital outlets that do very good. There's a new magic game that comes out yearly. If a big part of no PDFs...

I'm not saying you are wrong and I admit I have very little knowledge of corporate business but perhaps you could explain a bit more indepth about this revenue streamlining? I can't possibly see any way that releasing a PDF would do anything but help their money intake.

I really hope that wizards isn't holding off because of piracy, if so I need to go find them and tell them to get out from under that rock they have been living in. That myth has been debunked a long time ago if they choose a reasonable price for them. My references? Steam, Good Old Games...

All this being said I'd kill for a single book that encompassed many settings. Like a multiverse book, man that would be awesome.

Not even 2 columns.

How will they approach the settings? Apparently with a 5-7 white page document with no formatting if that Eberron document is any indication (which so far that's all we have to go on.)

The problem with this is that even if D&D sales aren't keeping stores open, you imply that D&D sales in these stores CAN be undermined, which means that you believe that D&D does have some large percentage of a store's income. You seem to be saying that if wizards sold PDFs that it would somehow...

His actions don't really follow his words in this case... so far. It almost feels like the same promises that were made to us when 4th came out. All these lofty goals of apps like the virtual tabletop, and character builder. Something that gets people playing the games without worrying so much...

Oh yes the secrecy many of us are referring to are their PDF and plans for community licenses. Can you please link me where they talk about this other than "we're working on it". It's PDFs. Pretty much anyone who is anyone in the RPG industry has PDFs. It's BS that they do not, also guidelines...

I guess, I want MORE rpg books, please link me to what their 5e plans are for the next... 6 months? Please! I can't wait to spend my money and all their products! They have .... one adventure yes? Did I miss something if I did , I completely apologize!

I agree with OP, but am not surprized to see many WOTC supporters come to the thair aid. These are real concerns of people who have looked forward to 5e. It may be be a concern for you but MANY 5e supporters are loosing interest because we have nothing to be interested IN. For the love of god...

Just so long as you admit it happened and very much -IS- happening and -IS- a reality that people outside the internet ARE paying attention and getting exposed to this! That's all I ever wanted....Thanks!

Guys all I'm saying is that this stuff is making it's rounds outside the internet. No longer can a person say that this only matters to someone who goes on these boards. You may not have liked how I handled it, but that is tough for you, if you want to change it go to these places and set them...

I was there. I usually listen rather than chime in, but there was nothing to correct about what they were saying. It was all fact about how they have been issuing cease and desist letters with no guidance on what the community should actually be doing to comply with a game that has no actual way...

Just a bit of an update, but this is getting quite a bit of bad press outside of the internet. Local comic shop it was quite the conversation around the tables. I'd wager 20 or so people. Interesting to say the least... many of these people are casual players coming with their friends. I hope...
