Shrinking? Pathfinder is outselling D&D. When you add all those people playing older editions and the success of retro clones this "shrinking market" is larger then their current one.

No, it's not the most successful game ever sold. And even WoW is now free to play until level 20. It will grow larger than 20 free levels. The whole idea of one giant game then "everyone else" is merely a snapshot of the current young and growing MMORPG market. And, despite what some people...

I really could care less how crass their marketing is, as long they are heading towards some support for most or all editions. By now there is no way out of the fractured D&D fan base other than supporting different editions. Doesn't matter if it's reprinting older books, PDFs (again) or adding...

Very true. At this point Wizards is doing themselves a HUGE disservice by not selling digital copies of older material again. I'm sure there is some service they can use that would deter at least basic piracy. As long as the protection is easy enough to use and it doesn't hamper the buyer, most...

I've seen it plenty of times when a company doesn't have all the details hammered out and saying anything more concrete now, may result in them getting crap from customers when they finalize plans that turn out to be somewhat different. Also, they simply may be trying to drop hints and get...

If this is handled properly, or at least somewhat well, I think one of the best benefits to them supporting all the D&D editions, is it would go a Looooooong way to bringing the D&D community back together. Now, I know there will always be "edition warriors", but I think the effect would be...

This, I'm not surprised with. And is something they should have done long ago. This makes me very happy. The fact that the retro clones' success was mentioned a few times during the Wizards podcasts last year showed they were very well aware there was a profit to be made in that area. Whether...

I just bought the PDF last night, and it has quickly become my top Monster Manual ever. Not that it's perfect, but it's what I would like every Monster Manual to be like from now on. Detailed, beautiful, and a great read. The yield table was a great idea as well. I'm really happy with this...

Simply Beautiful. Though I love the clean, elegant, easy to read look of 4E, it really just can't compare to this new Hacklopedia. The book itself is a work of art.

Nice. I wanna try it! :) I know several people at work who'll definitely love this. Since there's both a weekly Magic game and a D&D game going on at the office, this should be a perfect fit.

The controls and camera were worked on for NwN 2 during several rather large patches and by the time they released Mask of the Betrayer, it was much better. Also, Mask is was lauded as one of the best RPG's of the year. I can see how the first impressions of the game when it was released would...

Yup. I've never joined the group, and just checking my account a few minutes ago verified that I'm somehow a member of it. I also let my account run out a few days ago, so it'll be interesting to see how long it takes before I'm booted from it.

D&D: All editions plus Pathfinder

It *is* partially obscured by the blown up portion of the map but... You can still see that following it south is a heavily forested region, and then Sarthel. The waters along the southern coast of Sarthel being the Western Midnight Sea, and the Bay of Nera.

With the art assets released for this month's Dragon, the map used for the board game Conquest of Nerath is a bit clearer and easier to zoom in on and inspect. You can even read the names of famous dungeons to see where they exist in the Points of Light setting. (they have a unique Gravestone...

And no mention of the three missing articles from last week. =/ It's not that bad, but both Strange Gods and Nerathi Legends are the two fluff articles I was looking forward to most from this Month.

Really? Because they've done anything but expand D&D's market in the last few years. Quite the opposite in fact. I honestly don't think any of the worries presented by the OP are valid. And no, I don't think Wizards is destined to fail. But, I do think their efforts in recent years has given...

Considering how may people have given up on DDI at the current price and feature set, they'd be pushing it to move some of the current features to a more expensive tier. Especially since they've already reduced the content of Dragon and Dungeon magazines. They have every right to charge more...

Even last month, there was around a 20 page drop in the size of each Magazine. I guess it's good for them they are no longer compiling magazines, or else more people would have noticed how anemic Dragon and Dungeon magazines have become. I'm still a subscriber. But really, there's no getting...

Ruins of Adventure didn't have a Zhent fighting a Red Plume with a loaf of bread on the cover either. That was The Moonsea.
