Background: The UGT’s weekly sessions run for 10+ hours. Now anywhere from one to two hours gets eaten up by pre-game socializing and mid-game dinner, but generally speaking we start at 4pm Saturday afternoon and go till 12-2am Sunday morning. At the time of this encounter, we actually started...

Hehe... Indeed.

Sure thing. No, I think buying both a PDF and and physical copy of a book at full price is irresponsible. I never said PDFs didn't have their uses. If I thought that, I wouldn't give a rip about the price, now would I? And it occurs to me that I must have hurt your feelings, because now your...

:hmm: You bust Treebore's chops for snark, then come at me with that tripe? Obviously I am speaking only of my own personal definition of 'responsible spending'. If you want to own a movie on VHS, DVD and Blu-Ray, knock yourself out. I only need one copy. Now if I find a DVD in the bargin bin I...

Good choice. ;) Seriously, The Ultimate Gaming Table has 3 female members. 2 wives and 1 girlfriend of male members. There is realy a lot of flirting all around the table, but it's only because we are all good friends.

I picked one up on ebay a few years ago for $50ish. I love it, but the obviously old UI and graphics are... well, old. ;) Great buy though. Were I you, I'd save a search on ebay and keep an eye out for a reasonably priced set.

Great game. I've only been able to play it once but we had a blast. The survivors won, but the zombies (me) did manage to take out a couple of players first characters. :]

:o Actually, your snark was pretty tame. I've been dealing with a lot of rabid posters this week, no fault of yours. My apologies for overreacting.

Well, we already know that the PDF only crowd is a pretty small niche of the community. Do you think the Book + PDF group is really that much larger? I mean, sure it may be a large percentage of the forum goers but they (we) are just a fraction of gamers already. I just don't see how it would...

Again with the snarkyness. Can't you simply say, 'Thank you Scott, for coming in and explaining WotCs view on the matter'? Scott. Is there any possibility of managing 'some' kind of way to allow those of us who prefer print books to aquire the PDFs to supplement? Even if it's some kind of only...

Bah, I grew up in the South-West (AZ to be specific) if I'm eating guacamole, it's gonna be with tortilla chips. Healthy or not, anything else is just blasphamous.

As I've said in various PDF threads over time, I'd love to buy PDFs from the source. But I refuse to pay full price for an electronic copy of a book when I already own a physical copy. Buying a book twice is just not responsible spending.

Ouch...

The daughter of some very powerful NPC falls hopelessly desperatly in love with him and daddy comes by to make sure that he 'does right by his little girl' (Who is, of course, pregnant). Or his reputation could begin to precede him, he may be a notorious lover to the ladies but men, obviously...

To play devil's advocate for a minute, there are some costs involved to make the PDFs more 'user friendly'. Adding the bookmarks and whatever links are included did take some time and effort. Not enough to justify full price, but it's not like they just used the same unchanged PDFs that they...

I read the entire thread before I posted my personal experience in voicing complaints about PDF pricing. Is there a time frame after which commemts are no longer needed? Or you just sore that so many came forward to say you were wrong? Why should you be upset? I didn't call you a fanboy or...

Ya know, having a different opinion is one thing. Being a total jerk about it is something else entirely. Comments like that are just begging to be called a WotC fanboy. Which would probobaly upset you, as it should, but you really are setting yourself up for it.

Printing costs money. You're slightly discounted books now cost as much as the 'real' thing. And if the discount goes away or was not included in the first place... I and many others complained loudly and often about the price of 3.5 PDFs. I would be very surprised if you could find a single...

That idea was scrapped. We have the D&D Compendium instead. :erm:

Still too much, IMO. $20 would be the absolute max I'd consider paying. $10-$15 is much more realistic. I could care less if the price is comparable to Amazon, the product is not comparable to a book in my hands.
