[QUOTE="Olaf the Stout, post: 6307051, member: 13703"] I think you can see it from the poll, but you have drastically underestimated just how many adventures most people own. I just did a quick count of the number of adventures that I have on my flashdrive at work with me today. I may have made a couple of miscounts, but I have at least 90 adventures with me, if not more than 100. Some of those are for other systems (Call of Cthulhu, XCrawl, Year of the Zombie and Delta Green), but even without those I still have over 80 with me today. If I did a count that on my computer at home I’d comfortably get over 100 electronic adventures just for D&D alone. On top of that are hard copy adventures. I own 50+ issues of Dungeon Magazine (the actual hardcopy magazine, before WotC killed it off). Each of those issues has 3 or more adventures in it, so there’s close to another 200 adventures. Add in hard copy adventures that I own and you’d probably have at least another 20 (excluding those adventures that I also own in PDF format). So I own over 300 adventures, or well over 100 if you don’t count those from Dungeon Magazine. Now I’m almost certainly on the very very high side of the scale when it comes to the number of adventures I own (I bought a stack of them very cheaply when 4E came out and 3.5E adventures were being heavily discounted), but I am not surprised to find that over 75% of people in this poll own 11+ adventures. Even if you don’t use them as-is and only mine them for plot ideas, NPC’s and magic items, I find many published adventures to be worth the cost. [/QUOTE]
