[QUOTE="Dire Bare, post: 7663823, member: 18182"] I do. Most folks don't seem to be asking for a return to the full volume of the 2E - 4E era, but certainly a more rapid release than we are getting now. Of course, what the "correct" volume of product is, changes with each fan. I do think a lot us, even those of us who aren't complaining, would love to see more information about WotC's release plans, that much is obvious. I certainly would. But we do not have a "right" to this information, and we can go on living our lives and playing our D&D games in a happy and healthy manner without it. The folks who are just cranking out the whine, the complaints, and the "WotC is stoopid" vitriol have become more than irritating. Move on, worry about something real for a change. Eh, YMMV. Different fans want different things. WotC's marketing is pretty top notch, and I think they do a pretty good job of giving the fanbase what it wants and needs. If they had more resources, we would probably see more product volume (although, not a lot more), with more variety. And the "quality" of the work produced is always subjective, lots of complaints that Tyranny of Dragons is awful, and also lots of kudos that Tyranny of Dragons is awesome. As usual, again, YMMV. [I]"I won't complain about free stuff, but here's my complaint about the free stuff."[/I] If we had got a hardback Elemental Evil Player's Guide, it would have been more meaty. It may not have been more crunchy, but it would have been a full book. And I suspect I'm not the only one who thinks the amount of elemental crunch we got is PERFECT. Avoiding bloat is not just about a high volume of splat products, but also limited the crunch in the products you do deliver. [/QUOTE]
