Awesome man! Thanks for the advice. I should give it a try just because of it's awesome reputation.

On second thought, that sounds incredibly easy to put together (herpa derp), so I think I'll just do it myself. Thanks though.

I play in a weekly group, and happen to date the sister of one of the group members. We play 3.5 in the weekly game, because several of the party members refuse to play 4th edition. So I was talking to the girlfriend about DnD, and she seemed halfway interested. So I want to set up some sort...

DnD HAS CLASS ROLES! ITS EXACTLY LIKE WoW IN EVERY WAY! I MUST QUIT MY LONGTIME PLAY GROUP, JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE SWITCHING TO 4E! (over use of caps used to represent people in my play group who've decided to quit playing because we're making the switch... even though they know nothing of 4E...

The guy was overly negative about the DnD website, like he was looking for reasons to hate it, but he's right that it just isn't as "cool" as the WoW website. Content issues aside... the DnD website should be every bit as cool as the WoW website.

Ugh... as an American... I voted Metric, just because its an awesome system that I can think in... but why associate that with the French? Base 12/3/5280? Or base 10/100/1000? I wish there weren't so many people who only think "gosh... Imperial Units are the measurements that I know, so...

Of course I can. No. That I haven't sat in on an executive meeting at a multi-million dollar company doesn't mean my supposition that WotC isn't run by people who don't know what they're doing any less valid.

The fact that they're considering dropping the OGL proves it wasn't as successful as you're suggesting, of else they wouldn't be considering it. It seems like common sense that a multimillion dollar corporation is run by individuals who receive a relatively high salary. I never said how much...

The biggest "Yes Chicken Little, the Sky IS Falling" post of the year. It so absurd nothing else can/need be said. If thats what a person chooses to believe, then best of luck. It shouldn't suit you far beyond hobby message boards.

Short of using copyrighted proper nouns, there is nothing WotC can do about it. Enjoy this link that someone else on this very board has been nice enough to share, so that all could bask in its (common sense) glory. http://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl108.html There is nothing WotC could do about...

*I*... *I*... think I'm going to cry. Someone ready what I said... understood it... replied as such... and defended my statements. Shocking that such a simple statement (i.e. "which is more likely, that a multi-million dollar company does, or doesn't know what its doing") would be met...

WTF are you talking about? I'm telling you that aside from the core books, we bought the Forgotten Realms book, and a VERY small handful of other class books. You're *STILL* telling me that I've benefited from an expanded industry... even though I've not bought/used/read/cared about/had any...

I never said it wasn't a failure of their development staff, however you *CAN NOT* deny that without the OGL, WotC would have made more money. Your entire point boils down to "The OGL is better for *GAMERS* because it puts more content on the shelves". I agree 100% with this. You're however...

Yup. A player cheating for personal gain, and a DM fudging something for the benefit of everyone are exactly the same. :\ Yeesh. :\

Congratulations on dismissing my post without actually bothering to dispute any of my statements. Tis' what one expects out of an internet discussion. I stand by what I said. If you're a DM, and you think its a better idea for the DM to allow the party to accidentally stumble upon the end of...

LOL! I couldn't put my finger on why I thought this thread was silly, and this quote personifies it perfectly. In my experience, a DM doesn't need the systems permission to make sure the game is fun for everyone. If you're a DM, and you stick to the letter of the rulebook while your party had...

Its also worth noting that Monte Cook didn't raise a terribly great argument. His argument basically boils down to "when people buy five books a year... which is better for a company... that people have the choice between five books, or thirty". First of all WotC produces more then five...

I agree completely. Ask Sega if competition is inherently fantastic for the entertainment medium. Ask Sony if it wouldn't rather have EA games as exclusive titles for its PS3, instead of them being multi-platform. Competition is *FANTSTIC* for the consumer (increase product quality, and...

I love this topic post! Genuinely. As my gaming group struggles with the decision about whether or not to switch to 4E, I've made very clear that I would either like to try the new edition (just to see what its like), or go back to the original Gygax stuff... partially because its classic...

After all those misinterpreted quotes during this long few months of heavy anticipation, which let to giant debates and a few arguments, all simply because a few people read a quote wrong... after all those misinterpreted quotes came to nothing... Its still happening? Goodness. I recommend a...
