If the game requires any collectable component, I'm not interested. If the game requires any subscription element, I'm not interested. And if the game requires any software support (or even 'requires' them to the extent that 4e does the Character Builder), I'm not interested.Core rulebook, paper, pencils, dice. That's what the game should require, and nothing more.Now, that said, I have nothing against minis, collectable elements, or software support existing for those who want them. Indeed, many of these things can and should enhance the game.In the particular case of electronic support, I believe that every book should be available in an eBook format, that everything should be available online, that there should be an easy-to-access Compendium. It would be madness to act as though people don't have smart-phones or iPads, or whatever. Where the technology exists, they should work to leverage it. (Indeed, there should be an iPad compatible electronic character sheet available on Day One.)But don't require these things.</blockquote>
