Thanks man, I appreciate it. Honestly, I look back at our old stuff and I'm pretty appalled by most of our art. If we did something new it would look a hell of a lot better.

The Miniature Player's Handbook was published by Mongoose Publishing I believe and I know that really ticked them off. They did all three core rulebooks, didn't they? I didn't know the release of OSRIC was an issue.

We talking 3e, 4e, or both?

Haven't really given it much thought to be honest. It was just something I was thinking about now that I have time on my hands again. Plus, with a new edition around the corner it would seem like a good time. I'm really just trying to get a feel for where everything is at and a lot has changed...

Relevant to you sure. My thread and my point is the silence on the whole topic. To each his own I suppose.

Well, it's somewhat the same in that they are eschewing 3PP again. That's the point I'm getting at. I checked on all the industry groups that I belong to and there is zero information on D&D Next. Just a couple links to the articles that were posted around the D&D Anniversary. Very different...

Been a member for over 10 years and my bookmark still goes right to the forums... :/ Thanks. Those are mostly accessories and they usually do that stuff for D&D. Was hoping to see an adventure or something fluffy.

Agreed on the quality of CC, but honestly who cares? Do you really think if a 3PP releases releases a subpar product that's going to affect D&D Next's sales in the slightest? EDIT: Actually I remember Ryan Dancey high fiving people with his copy of Freeport as proof that the OGL was successful...

Gotcha. My bad. Which publishers?

Maybe... If I was in their position I would want as many people on board from the get go as possible. When 3e came out, Green Ronin released the first OGL product at Gencon when the PHB was released if memory serves and I believe Creature Collection came out before the Monster Manual. Making...

You would have thought they would have wanted publisher support right out of the gate. Sounds like the whole 4e GSL thing all over again. Disappointing...

Hey all, Man, it's been ages since I've posted on here and I'm really out of the loop. I did playtest D&D Next, but I haven't seen anything on whether or not it will be open. Didn't turn up much info on the Google searches I did just a lot of people talking about it. Has there been any word...

Take a look at Apple and the whole App Store setup and allow Publishers to integrate new rules and mechanics into DDI via "apps". The apps would only be available through WotC's website and they take a cut of any apps that are sold. WotC makes money off of the apps as they are the single source...

Wow, this thread was a pretty crazy ride. I really miss EN World and posting on here. I think it's too little too late for WotC to save any face with the GSL. That ship has sailed and the line between Pathfinder and 4e is etched in stone. I'm not going to guess on the sales of Pathfinder vs...

I don't agree. I know quite a few people who work there including their managing editor who is also one of the main writers. The game is VERY respectful of the Star Wars IP.

Lucas didn't approach Bioware. It was the other way around... You are right about them wanting to develop their own IPs though.

Scott, Thanks for being such a great steward for D&D. You certainly turned me around with the updates to the GSL and you've always taken a lot of flak, but never returned it in kind. You are a gentleman and a scholar. I'm sure I speak for the lot of us when I say that you will be sorely missed...

Greatest announcement EVER!!!!!!!!!!! I so can't wait...

So it's official. Some last minute bad luck has ensured that I'm not going to be attending GENCON this year. No Pathfinder or Arcane Legions for me... :( I've decided to have a 50% off sale on our entire catalog at RPGNow for the other poor saps that are stuck home like me. Check it out here...

Why bother trying to make the damage of a gun scale realistically with a bow and arrow when the entire hit point system isn't modeled on realism?
