No. EN Publishing, as far as I have seen, does not state that you are buying a license to use the PDF. For eBooks, Amazon clearly states that you are only buying a license to read the book. They can update or remove the book at any time. You used to be able to download an archived version of...

I had heavily invested in the old WOTC D&D minis. I did not buy any of the WizKids stuff until the D&D 50th. I was struck by the lack of value and quality versus the older sets from WOTC. 4 versus 8 miniatures for 25 to 50% more. I will never touch WizKids again. They are terrible and I warn...

I have not seen that in action. I, finally, convinced someone in one of my old groups to DM. It is the first time I have played since 2002. He chose 5.5. So far, we are in Tomb of Annihilation and everything melts and he is using the new versions of the monsters. This was supposed to be a more...

The average cost of a paperback has risen to 13.99 with HC between 30 and 40.

The problem is that the perceived value of the digital item is not the same as physical. Publishers have created this problem by making digital products licensed rather than owned. It is a jerk move to force the idea that people own nothing and should be happy about it. Amazon is now leading...

Agreed. 5.5 upped the power level versus 5.0.

I only ignore in very rare cases. I think most folks posting here have something interesting to contribute.

Not for me. I like to argue but I have limits. There gets a point where it hits a wall and devolves.

Amazon has been systematically making kindle worse to lock people into their device and prevent people from archiving their purchases. They are trying to eliminate competition and then they will control pricing. I refuse to buy from them since they eliminated download and transfer.

They made it. It is at 147k

They need about 6k with 3 hours left!

Agreed. It is a KS and many are from people that are just starting out. I have rarely not gotten my content and I do not order anything that I need on a certain date via KS. They are luxury goods.

I have 2 out of over 100. E20 and Dragoneye Dice. The e20 guy had a breakdown, which is fine. I hope he got better but he has spent the years since attacking and banning people who ask him about the failed project. Dragoneye dice by Spidermind. Just stay away from that company.

I first encountered The Gamers film at GenCon 2006. @Alenda and I went to meet up with a bunch of ENWorlders. It may also be the first time I met Morrus. We fell in love with it and have kept up with the subsequent versions over the years. This may be the last one and it is close to funding...

Last day to pledge!!!

Since the prices baked that 20% in for at least the last 7 years, we are looking at a 10% increase. This does not translate to 10% in final price. I think the last month has been insane; however, I am somewhat happy that the extra 115% is gone, for now. I cannot comment on the tolerance of the...

They were already 20%. I just hope that a permanent agreement can be reached.

Yes. The US added a 20% tariff to China under Trump 1 which was supposed to fight against the fentanyl chemicals China was producing. The US already had 20% tariffs on China prior to the trade war that increased to 145%. The tariffs were just reduced by 115% which leaves it at 30% (a 10%...

I did not encounter it until Necromancer Games published its d20 version in the 2000s. I had heard of it along with Wilderlands and Thracia. I own all of the Necromancer Games titles because that was one of the few 3pp d20 era stuff I had to keep. I have never cracked the book for City State...

People also evolve. Views may harden, soften, change, or evolve over time. A person can dramatically change. It does not mean they had those views in the past and they could have formed or been set by external events. I am much different as I close on 50 than when I was posting 25 years ago.
